I suspect it's all hot air but good for his hedge fund mates.
I'm hoping the budget pending on infrastructure will make me proud to be British again, forget about your train set Oxo if he spends £20bn on the Severn Barrage I will vote Tory next time round.
With the oceans predicted to rise a meter by the end of the century i'm sure the insurance industry would be interested in the flood protection of some major cities in addition to the regular 17 TWH which could be controlled to supplement to daily variable of renewables.
The Victorians never quite got round to it, lets see if we can finally improve on them.

" I guess it is the price the world is paying for NOT having a financial total collapse."
Steady on Jammare, the world financial crisis was caused by Labour.
Next you'll be saying Thatcher and Conservatism are GREEN!

Actually the more you look at it the better it looks for British business.
Latest fig's are 2.7m out of an estimated 3.5m have opted for freedom of movement so Britain gets its flexible workforce after all!

Prehaps people are holding back until release of public borrowing figs on 22nd Jan, car manufacturing figs or B of E interest announcement on the 30th.

Gateboy for the record I didn't vote Labour.
Where I live you're wasting your vote and probably Conservative's can say the same in their constituencies,so along with the 33% who don't bother there's not a lot of democracy out there however I do like referendums when everyone is counted.

Only weirdos and misfits vote conservative says Cummings.
Plenty of choice here!

Lloyds SP has fallen back to the 31st Oct level before the rise during the election campaign when there was a chance of a Labour victory, BT has followed a similar path!!

TLWilliams,
You must have a special gift being able to spot people who are taking subsidies,i'm envious.

Janmare,the people you refer to are conservatives this time round, it will be interesting to see how this one unwinds.

Richard,complete b0llocks.
"The Lloyds share price has stalled because of the usual rhetoric from the EU about timescales"
The Lloyds share price has stalled because the UK economy has stalled,the EU became history on the 12th Dec 2019,get over it.
I would love to know what personally leavers are doing to make the dream come true or did the responsibility end with the cross in the box

Sentiment within the country needs to change if an interest rate cut is to work and although the elderly leavers might be upbeat they are less likely to borrow money.
I think if we're following Trump the Tories are likely to bin the deficit rules otherwise it's more austerity.

We left the EU so we could be more democratic yet the EU never blocked us from having a referendum.
What has boris got to fear?

"Then everyone will pretend they always thought brexit was a great idea." as opposed to just 52%!
As for EU using UK banks couldn't American banks carry out these duties,would be a great bargaining chip if the EU wants to negotiate a trade deal with Trumps US.

I just wish Boris would stay on Mustique all year round along with his waffle.
Wonder if there's room for Harry & Megan too, must be pretty secure.

LTI, there's been a lot of good advice here for the last few days.
One was the staff bonus could be cut from last years £459m and companies don't normally do that unless something is up.The other one is to wait until the end of the month when more data will reveal whether the Boris bounce has any momentum.
I'm sure you'll be happy with whatever happens over the next two weeks.

If it all goes tits up it would be nice for the country to be self sufficient in energy and food!

Deputy Governor woods said,
" It's been quite striking to me that really we've only had that one consolidation [in banking] – Virgin Money (LON:VM) and Clydesdale. The possibility of others seems to me quite relevant and would not be problematic in principle."

FarEnd ,by that definition then,the EU most love the UK more than the UK loves Scotland!

JR, I don't agree I thought all the points were accurate on Lloyds but one point is missing .
8.For Christ sake do something, sell,buy,merge anything but more boring buy backs.

What Carney was trying to say London will be under water.
atmospheric CO2 is at its highest level in 15 to 20 million years (Tripati 2009). (A natural change of 100ppm normally takes 5,000 to 20,000 years. The recent increase of 100ppm has taken just 120 years).The last time CO2 was at this level was during the Pliocene Epoch of 2.6 to 5.3 million years ago—Antarctica was a plant-covered oasis, sea levels were an estimated 10 to 20 meters higher, and global temperatures were an average of 2 to 3 degrees Celsius warmer. In the Arctic, summer temperatures were a full 14 degrees higher than they are now.
Although our output of 29 gigatons of CO2 is tiny compared to the 750 gigatons moving through the carbon cycle each year, it adds up because the land and ocean cannot absorb all of the extra CO2. About 40% is absorbed leaving us responsible for 17 gigatons or 45 x annual UK emissions of 373m tons.
