Well Theresa wouldn't answer the question whether we would be better off in the medium term after brexit,so we're not doing it for money and if it's all about immigration then the rest of the world will take up the slack from less EU migration.
Sovereignty must have been the key.Our ability to make our own laws like energy drinks but one reason for bringing this meager legislation in is when compared with Europe our kid's drink 50% more-lol.
As a frenchman said to me "you ave shot yourselve in le foot".
As for Lloyds any improvement has to come from within.A flat economy likely for longer with uncertainty and interest rates going no where.
Lloyds is a good business and has to front end the share price with dividends but thats a commitment or back end with buy backs.Not sure about buying at present if we're going to have a crash of some kind,RBS paid way over the top before the last crash for some Dutch bank.Best to hold cash,the share price does have some resilience currently.
UK should stick together,always strength in unity and as for Ireland their union with EU has given them the freedom to decide.In former times they would have inevitably folded under British pressure or emmigrated.
Don't know what tonights protest is about,could be for longer lunch breaks til 5pm but got me red flare's primed!

Not sure who said earlier that immigrants send money home and it's a total loss to UK.
Not sure what point they were trying to make but to a lesser or larger extent we all do that whether we buy a big black BMW,a foriegn holiday or me buying my Chinese lawn mower.For their wage they have done a useful job for the UK.Is the suggestion we should bring in controls on whatever we spend's our money on?
I'm sure the rich Arab's and Russian's more than compensate for the movement of cash by paying excessively for UK property and anyway payments to some of the developing countries must assist in our foriegn aid commitments,the Empire some brexiteers wish to return to.
Trump starting to unwind,come on World!

Lot's of good posts,keep them coming.
Fleccy,Macron said today he want's good relations with UK but would not want to jeopardise Europe.
Talking from Euroland most of these countries have been occupied in recent times or had supported fascist governments.They still remember these risks and unlikely to give up the current status quo.
Just to get Income tax into perspective,73% of UK taxation comes from other source's so the poor contribute more as a %.Whats the latest ones,plastic bags and sugar.
EU/UK need to enforce existing regulations on trading standards.Bought a British brand lawn mower on-line,however it had 3 terrifying words on it MADE IN CHINA.Worked ok for 21 months but plastic safety switch has just broke.After 2 days of fixing on and off, apoxy resin/steel pins and waiting for it to cure plus rain stopped play we're mowing again.The EU is more likely to put an end to a friday afternoon Shanghai mower-British trading standards at birmingham couldn't stop chocolate manufactured teapots-useless.
JMO,i am left of centre and believe in a mixed economy,the question is how far right of centre are you?
Tricky,good point that about the SNP.Early 2017 Sturgeon was on regular visits to Europe but its all gone quiet, prehaps she was told come back in the winter of 2019 and if UK leaving on a "no deal" we may be able to offer you something?
John Mc Cain.5 plus years as a prisoner of war and able to see right through Trump.Might not agree with some of his Republican views but what a guy.
Back to lawn,GLA

Lets not call them project fear,they are worse case scenario's.
I personally believe they will not be required,however never say never and if political relations sour then it could get worse than these reports.
Watched Raab's presentation and he did speak a lot about good faith-not a very good bargaining position.
Was the heating on full blast in Whitehall or was Raab under some pressure.He had the advantage of knowing the contents of the 148 page report which was dished out to reporters 5mins before the presentation.
I hate to say it but David Davis would have made a better job of it,at least he would have looked comfortable.

JMO,have been reading up on Clinton.I'm amazed he got away with it.
He left it late to pull out but he was a charmer.

I don't this alone would lead to impeachment either.
What he needs to do is come clean.Do a Bill Clinton but he has left it a bit late now and the lies to cover more lies will reduce his options.

If he came clean in the first place the electorate would have been more forgiving,people like a President who can tell the truth even if it hurts.

It's more than what goes on in the bedroom department.It's about the meaning of the word truth which is a whole lot bigger than FORCE.Last few days they have been trashing truth,saying it doesn't exsist but you need it for trust and confidence otherwise you end up in Caracas!

It's never wise to upset the international community if they have come to an agreement-best to talk it through.
What is he going to do now,bomb China-they have a lot of nuclear weapons.

The Chinese have taken over the Total contract

I wonder if Trump forced his lawyer to pay those nice ladies?

If your putting America first,then you have to LOCK HIM UP,LOCK HIM UP!!.

Jayfax,i don't know what we would do without you.

Jayfax,your right on the no confidence vote-simple majority then 14 days.
It's the brexiteers with their slick manipulation,i was seduced into thinking their ways,briefly.
Signed,Adrian Snige Mole age 9 and 3/4 yrs

Lloyds have jettisoned the booster rockets and now in a low 61p orbit

Chancer,i see the positives in a fixed-term parliament.The fact that you need 66.67% majority means there is general agreement the government has cocked up.It's a big decision to make toppling a government and i feel its best you have consensus.

Very similar to the B word issue.

Livestock,far too many potential answers to your question,lol.
We should be discussing lloyds-ha.
UK focused businesses having a second good day,prehaps these impact reports tomorrow will not be as bad as first thought ?

Well for a starters i wouldn't spend £50billion on HS2-cannot see the point of getting to Birmingham 20 mins sooner.Technology has overtaken the project.It's like the Grand design programmes of 2000 adding USB sockets in every room before WIFI.

Right i'm off to Caracas with my maracas they need a new finance minister-apparently ay caramba

JMO,add some trade deals in,i'm all brexited out.
By the way if the Tories don't want a Marxist state and they have had 8 yrs to change things,then no excuses,no blaming anyone,get the houses built sort out the railways,water industry,local council,roads etc,etc and the common people will vote Tory everytime.

People like fair play and justice too,bring back legal aid.

Chancer,i was quoting UK gov fig's-"According to initial estimates by the British government, leaving the advantages of EU membership behind and switching to use of WTO trade rules would cost the U.K.’s businesses about £65.5 billion per year (or around US$82 billion). Over a 15-year period, this would lower the country’s GDP by between 5.4% and 9.5%. In addition to lost trade, the U.K. may also be on the hook for paying about £20 billion in unpaid bills to the EU"
In addition to above we have-"In addition to hurting trade prospects, the harder option is seen as a possible threat to the UK’s financial services industry. According to some estimates, the limitation of access to Europe’s financial markets could cost Britain as much as the following:
£38 billion in business,
£10 billion in tax revenues,
and more than 70,000 jobs.
All based on no deal.

JMO,it always works out.We'll have a bit of a wobble GDP will fall 8%.We will recover but never back to where we should be and the Government will find someone to blame but it wont be Trade Unions or the EU this time.
We are no Venezuela,there's a lot of foreign money invested here and we still have stability.

JMO,you said "If Corbyn becomes the next Prime Minister... he better take a leaf out of his Marxist comrades books and be very kind to the military even as the country is an economic disaster. If not he will be removed from office by the military.Think thats bonkers?"
YES.
If i was Mrs.JMO i would be looking for all the overtime and course's i could find,lol.
