leading economists... SON NUMBER 1 IS ONE OF THESE....THEY ARE NOT GENIUSES! They have managed to get a whole lot of growth forecasts amazingly wrong thuout BREXIT(sorry but its the most immediate obvious example of economists screwups time and again). Don't confuse incredibly well paid occupations with genius, as an example I give you MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT.As one who favours a contrarian approach we're all looking for a rocket bounce here on consistent production. That depends on conversion into goods that in turn will need consumers, who will be released to buy worldwide
Remember this... Who do you value more your nurses who are thoroughly undervalued, left without protection or the MP's who seem to be absolutely useless in serving and managing the country, and even have personal security something they couldn't prepare front line staff for. The Commons, able to lay in a store of fine wines with up to 40 years shelf life but unable to keep a store of basic hospital front line coveralls and masks to be used in a pandemic..... Now this ..https://www.express.co.uk/finance/city/1267001/coronavirus-UK-mps-expenses-finance-10-000-uk-covid-19-coronavirus-uk-economy..
and yet the undeveloped projects will still require drilling lots of holes to EXPLORE the extent of deposits and a decent cash flow or loans will be required
and a load of nascent mines requiring more black holes of cash yet to bring online
Re Safety/ Marxism Sunday Nothing wrong with Marx that Stalin couldn't put right

Looks like it could be ore specific i.e. in this case it's copper, has anyone got the wording of the original decree to define if its widely applicable across the mining industry in Spain. Strangely dithering yes/no decrees just a few days apart. Worrying if this is the level of advice the authorities are receiving
China could be subject , or even should be subject to a boycott post C-19. The bigger question is , how is S. Korea achieving a markedly lower rate of infection over the rest of the world. Why aren't their practises being adopted world wide. Meanwhile Lord Sumpton is putting economics before lives.
From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs. . 2/3rds of the administration of the country worth SFA whilst many front line NHS staff risk their lives with inadequate protection and simply can't afford a mortgage .
re Worzel Who are risking their lives , had a pay rise that put them into a higher pension bracket and gave them less take home salary than before the rise? Who had a £2k pay rise extra expenses and continue to be crap at the management job they're supposes to fulfil. Who do you value more your nurses who are thoroughly undervalued, left without protection or the MP's who seem to be absolutely useless in serving and managing the country, and even have personal security something they couldn't prepare front line staff for. The Commons, able to lay in a store of fine wines with up to 40 years shelf life but unable to keep a store of basic hospital front line coveralls and masks to be used in a pandemic, just basic personal protection. FGS they stockpiled green goddess fire engines for over 50 years. Utter incompetence by successive govts on a grand scale
There is some information on line that hot baths /showers exacerbate the disease , be careful in your advice
Economy before lives? All this within the 2 weeks of rising stats because the disease is playing catch up with those already infected before lockdown. There's a diversity of messages in the media with a modelling ad visor,(economic), states we need to go back to herd immunity whilst the health advice is to continue with lockdown An on off herd immunity is still not impacting . We had years of dither from Corbyn, on all areas , it's the last thing we need from the current administration. This on off on policy is doing more harm just when most of the population is taking it seriously. Presumably if they're going for herd immunity were going to see a packed Commons and Lords - You know that ain't gonna happen! Personally I'm advocating common sense. The banks response is crap, refusing govt backed loans and loading on admin charges . . China are having a go at various organisations and leaders Calling it a China virus. Apparently There are some govts calling for reparation. Never mind world economy , if China is not willing to change the actions that have given the world a number of world spread diseases in the last 40 years then their goods should be boycotted until they do
So we're supposedly all assuming the transportation of ore is continuing across Spain which has Police checking for unnecessary journeys, drivers and support crews at depots and any receiving crews and ongoing destinations and process workers , turning up and risking lives and families while Spain has the highest infection and death rate on the continent. Personally i'd guess it was bad news
As will we all. However you have consistently been calling for above the .20's before the Pan raised its head, and within mid term time frames , called Troll on all taking a different view. Eventually , if it survives this will come good , but now in 1-24 months. (Gove is talking up a 6 month lockdown which could end up being reflected world wide) As with all let's hope we all get out of this disease with the least problems. However when you set yourself up you can't expect not to get poked. GIT, just banter but .20 is waaayyyyy too low. All the usual codiciles apply plus further dilution because wres hasn't got a cash stream currently, boom or bust, Many businesses will fail within the next year let's hope this one isn't one of them
Git you have absolutely no ambition , at this point can I accuse you of being LOL a Troll
re dreaming low prices ....that's why our pharmaceuticals are the 2nd most expensive in the world 5x more than in INDIA and why chlorinated chicken will be on the menu. Add to this there are food banks in the UK for ordinary citizens . 4th largest economy in the world
Line breeding to your cousin brings out the worst in people, literally. Its done to keep cash and control within the family, absolutely nothing to do with religion or culture. But surprised its even mentioned here because its deemed racist, much like Brexit, the Rotherham Scandal, wearing certain types of clothing and other sacred cows which remain untouchable. B4gger two more racist flags. Thank God at this difficult time we were able to recruit 3rd world staff to the NHS TO BE OUR SAVIOURS WHILST DEPRIVING THEIR OWN STATES OF THEIR EXPERTISE IN THESE DIFFICULT TIMES.Sorry caps lock and laziness in correction
For decades we have been importing labour and intelligence whilst consigning our own workforce to the pit of unemployment, benefits, zero working hours contracts and unskilled low paid labour.. The largest group of illiterates leaving schools are white working class boys. Training programmes to give us a stock of skilled workers are almost defunct. The education system is geared to churning out graduates to work at the equivalent of flipping burgers- just too many of them qualifying. Why aspire when there is no hope and an immigrant will undercut your income. The blame doesn't lie with one party , successive govts have repeatedly screwed the uk for their own ends post war. Worst of all Blair opening the gate s to immigration and poodling to the States for his own eventual remuneration and ego. Best Wilson for refusing to join the Vietnam War, but deserves a wooden spoon for attempting to become a state of the USA.
Surely This should be a time for all good men to come together or at least give us a benign dictatorship. The current infighting and point scoring in Labour is truly awful. As for corruption, I give you Baroness Chakrabati, elevated to the House and a position of power for a whitewash report that there was no intention to act on. Being better than Corbyn is not hard . The problem is there is no-one of merit within Labour known to the General Public
The Corbyn Project has failed. A weak puppet driving a coup to destroy moderate Labour and insert a non elected Marxist Momentum management group. No member of Corbyn's cabinet should be in Labour's front bench. Starmer had Simon and Kat Fletcher in his team and on the opposing wing Matt Pound. So it looks like more of the same infighting within labour with a watered down , less Biblical list of policies. Stay that last arguement, God only gave Moses 10 commandments. Labour Has lost Scotland, , They've lost the red wall, they maintained the immigrant vote which comprises London and the Kensington Claque of MP's in Corbyn's Shadow Cabinet couldn't see beyond the activists to the actual voting core of Labour voters. The sooner Labour chucks its every member gets a vote the sooner we can get back to people who actually know the quality of the candidates voting for them - and not driven by propaganda. Thank God Corbyn failed before C-19 got in. We'd probably have everyone's spare room being given over to a treatment centre and the population being fed by allotments. As for Starmer , unless he can survive 2 terms out of power he will never be PM. Bright but uncharismatic.
Lovely to see a head in a bucket moment. The whole financial system is depressed because of one overriding reason that has shut down ore mining, transport, production, distribution ,sales . Not much point in loadsamoney if you're cremated . That's the reason SP's are depressed in every mkt in the world DOH!. Survival = recovery. Meanwhile loans devaluing the compan(ies). Is this tooooooooooo simple
Anything on Amazon that delivers in a month comes from CHYNAH,You have to go thru at least 3 layers to find out. This isn't the only business that buys and hides and it's not limited to penny-ante projects flogging origami swans. There are huge projects in Iran Syria , Kenya, the silk road railroad, and project offers for UK 5G an d HS2. It ain't the little people who are going to sway CHYNAH, it's govts in Africa Europe and south America, perhaps the madness of Trump in withdrawing the USA economically from CHYNAH was surprisingly the right play. I'm as amazed as anyone
