Could you post something factual or even just remotely interesting. Just once instead of this obsession you have with Element?

It's pathetic

the eu should be great - the concept is great but the delivery and reality is anything but this. the eu is weak, cant get anything passed. my honest opinion is the eu has 20 years left before it fails.

check how they responded to the iran war - on a saturday this happens - we will set up a meeting for monday to discuss.

not to mention, low growth, high debt, many countries facing bankruptcy, high immigration, same fecking rape problems - you know sweden has a similar thing as grooming gangs, but instead of children the elderly have been targeted in bloody care homes.

just check eu gdp vs china or the usa for the last 20 years. its shocking what has happened

the eu is the cause of most the problems. not the solution. they say this will help our economy - just how?

economies are built based on supply and demand. all this does is increase supply - there is no new demand. there is no new money to increase demand so it will just lead to high supply, low demand - so no growth. its not like the eu countries are flush with cash. its not like the uk is flush with cash. so more products available - great, who is all of a sudden finding money to buy ****?

i dont expect labour supporters or the labour government to understand basic economics to be fair.

The

TT - it really is. I just read that Oz secured 240000 tons of refined fuels, from the USA as an emergency supplier. Half is diesel and its coming from Exxon, BP and Vitol. Its the largest inflow from the states to Oz since the 90's.

Its more expensive to ship obviously but then the price of oil in the US is cheaper than Asia and the Middle East so maybe this will actually reduce GGP cost, not increase it.

Example from today:

Brent - 105 USD per barrel

Opec Basket - 117 USD per barrel (Down 20% today which is strange)

Well yeah there are many thick people who have supported Hamas, Venezuela and now Iran.

The west is doomed

Droverman - it sounds very possible. I have read some news that says some parts of the Army and veterans are not getting salary, for the 3rd time this year.

And it sound like there is some problems where the army are arguing that the war is been used to strengthen the Islamic Revolutionary Guard over the army and police forces. ie i assume one is been paid, the other isnt.

I also read a great article yesterday that basically states this is the end for the regime. They dont have a leader, they are lying that there is someone there because they dont want to show weakness. The article compared this to Germany and shows considerable similarity with this happening much faster than previous examples. It also explained the fact that just because there is no visible uprising, it doesn't mean thats not going to happen. Just a case of when.

To many people are trusting Iran propoganda.

Sure Doozer - like the stuff with Greenland etc. Trump swings a bat and sees what happens. Normally what he says and what he means are not the same. He does mention that in the book - art of the deal.

Not a great approach but then again he tends to get results. Like the EU spending money on defence.

That book is also why i think what the next steps are for the war. There is a struggle with the Strait, usa needs leverage, thats what they will go after.

Doozer77 dont you think what Trump is doing is war time propoganda? Say 1 thing, mean another. Cause paranoia in Iran's leadership. Whilst in the background there are 5k marines heading that way. I am almost the certain on Friday evening there will be a massive attack on the main gas plant and Kharg island.

Its funny that people cry that Trump is lying. Imagine how upset they would be if they lived through the propaganda during WW2

martyn7 most the uk "refugees" are from ****stan, eritrean, albania and bangladesh. they dont flee war. they come to take over. simple as that - and its working as simpletons keep talking about war refugees needing help.

most them have their initial claims rejected. then they appeal then they get approved to stay because of the way our laws are built around the echr.

sorry but you have you head buried deeply in the sand.

I cant buy on Trading 212. Its says trading suspended by AIM. Assume too much volatility

Tugmaster.

No one knows what will happen tomorrow. So a forecast for the next decade make no sense.

Aftwr this war, countries will have a lot more debt. Probably a recession to deal with, inflation and at a time when the fed printers will be burning. Not to mention a new fed chair, picked by Trump. Then the world is burning with wars andnit won't get better any time soon.

We have an oil shock. At some point that will be resolved and oil will drop massively. I doubt back to where it was but will be much lower than it is today.

I can't see how gold stays low considering those factors

You too Tome. Hopefully next week will be better and the green boxes will move on.

Times are good. Great companies are on sale so people should be making use of that D:)

Tome I guess I already did as I just see green boxes so no idea or care who that is.

Redacted.

Its the same with a different product. I read all expected ships delivered as per schedule. But demand went up ffs.

And then the media loves to make this out to be a big deal so then more idiots panic buy D:)

Tbf I hope living on Mars becomes a reality. I want to get off this world. Its broken

matty..

the problem in oz with fuel is idiots and idiots alone.

the supply has not changed, all deliveries have been made. demand went up because of ******s panic buying.

there is no issue. eventually they will run out of stupid people panic buying and it will calm down.

Matml74 you know what its like. The average IQ in the west is roughly 100. It means roughly to half the people on the planet are thick.

Just check anyone who is currently panic buying petrol to check the lower end of the range D:)

Rob is a fecking weapon

Here is what AI thinks of his statement:

Short-term interest-rate futures (like Fed funds futures tracked via the CME FedWatch framework) reflect market-implied probabilities. Right now they show:

Base case: rates stay unchanged or move lower (cuts) into late 2026

December outcome: overwhelmingly no hike priced in

Hike probability: very small (≈1–2% range for 2026 overall)

Even more broadly:

Markets still price a gradual decline in rates into late 2026

Earlier in 2026, futures even implied rate cuts as the dominant scenario (e.g., high odds of cuts mid-year)

So jog into the Green Bin Knob you fecking idiot.

Matml74 I read up on this. The Oz government have said every planned delivery of oil took place but the issue is demand has increased- because idiots are panic buying. Hence some petrol stations running out of fuel.

Then people are selling shares based on a group of thick barstools increasing demand for no reason.

It will calm down soon enough.

I see why PI's lose money.

Irish it will be hard to fight a war with limited power

Military operations and command down, no drones, no communication, no production of weapons etc

Power is essential or the war is done quickly. And it would take 1 missile to kill most of it for the entire country. So yeah for now the Strait is a problem, but I don't think it will be in a couple of weeks.

I know it's bad for the Persian people, but hopefully they actually help topple the regime in the end. I think that's very likely even if it doesn't seem that way now.

Irish24a

I imagine they are letting Iran know they do understand where their critical infrastructure is. Them gas fields power something like 90% of all electricity in Iran. Wipe that out and the country is back in the stone ages.

As I said I expect that and Kharg island to be the way out of the problem with the strait. Probably why they attacked it last week, start taking out the defences, watch them try rebuild or set up new defense, attack the defnces again then invade.

I don't think the strongly worded letter the UK and the EU sent is going to fix this problem.
