I was addressing TROAJAN.

In 2029 you can them vote for your mate.

This massive surge in immigration was all down to BREXIT and that clown JOHNSON.

Brexit officially took place at 23:00 GMT on 31 January 2020 (00:00 1 February 2020 CET).

You do know that the Tories refused to process the boat people DELIBERATELY.

Because the Illegal Migration Act was passed that made it lawful to lock them up and not process them if they arrived by boat. They were all put them into hundreds of hotels and run up massive tax payer bills. (hotels were most probably owned by Tory donors/friends...)

"small boat crossings, cannot make a claim for asylum or protection, regardless of their need for protection."

After the Labour government won the UK general election in July 2024, the Illegal Migration Act has now been effectively ended.

This has all cost BILLIONS and will take several years too clear. AND HAS BEEN CAUSED BY THE TORIES.

Since the central bank won’t be trading Rubles for any foreign currency means the Ruble is worthless anywhere in the world except for internal Russian transactions.

Australia will ban children under 16 from using social media, after its Senate approved the world's strictest laws.

The ban - which will not take effect for at least 12 months - could see tech companies fined up to A$50m ($32.5m; £25.7m) if they don't comply.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says the legislation is needed to protect young people from the "harms" of social media, something many parent groups have echoed.

Most come here if there have family and/or Speak English.

More stay in France.

Just 3% of immigrants come over on small boats.

"Nigel Farage slams Labour and Conservatives over net migration and asylum system cost"

The figures are for the last year of the Tories.

FARAGE LIES once again.

REFORM/FARAGE have no answer apart from not signing vistas for jobs to fill. Without visas

the economy would crash along with the closing of our Universities which rely on high paid foreign students. You can't send people back to France as they wouldn't take them.

Under BREXIT with the Belfast agreement you could send some back to France.

Warren Buffett gives away another $1.1B and plans for distributing his $147B fortune after his death.

If Buffett and his first wife had never given away any of their Berkshire shares, the family’s fortune would be worth nearly $364 billion — easily making him the world’s richest man — but Buffett said he had no regrets about his giving over the years

I think Netanyahu is moving towards PUTIN atrocities.

Just 13% of UK people support Netanyahu in a poll...same as the last earlier this yr.

It's what he does......like in Syria,

Russia has stored up very many missiles ....most probably from its Allies.

But its wasting them on civilians targets.

Stellantis, the car manufacturer that owns Vauxhall, Peugeot, Citroen, and Fiat, has warned that it could face tariffs of 10% on exports of electric cars to the European Union (EU):

Details

What's at stake

Stellantis says that the 10% tariffs could make it difficult to compete with cheaper models from Asia, and that it could be forced to close UK factories

Why the tariffs?

The tariffs are due to rules on where parts are sourced from. To qualify for trade without tariffs, 45% of the value of an electric car must originate in the UK or EU by next year, and this will increase to 65% in 2027

What Stellantis says

Stellantis says that it's unable to meet these rules due to rising costs of raw materials and energy. It also says that the UK must consider its trading arrangements with Europe to ensure the sustainability of its manufacturing plants

What the UK government says

The UK government says it's determined to ensure that UK car making remains competitive. A government spokesperson says that the Business and Trade Secretary has raised concerns with the EU and is determined to find a joint solution

PREM up 15%

Up 30%

But will it still go into Administration?

Serabi Gold (LON:SRB) reports almost 4x EPS increase for 9 months this year compared to last. Now just shy of $0.24. SP currently 89p. I know that miners don’t get reviewed often on here but the changes in EPS and cash flow at Serabi Gold (LON:SRB) look impressive. They also forecast increased production in Q4 due to new processing facility. Any thoughts from the team wood be welcome.
