  1. So you would found it perfectly acceptable for the Soviet Union to station troops and missiles in Cuba? Why is it ok in China's backyard but not in the US's?
  2. The two main objective of any bureaucratic organisation such as NATO: 1. The survival of the organisation 2. To extend the power and therefore the budget of the organisation. Makes perfect sense to me.
  3. There's a good reason private investors are know as "dumb money".
  4. High street banks are dead in the water. Closing branches everywhere, online apps nowhere near as good as Wise. The future is Wise!
  5. I'm not looking to invest in gilts. I can do that through my investment portfolio. This is a current account to park spare cash and earn a decent rate of interest.
  6. I understand perfectly. I'm happy to pay slightly over the odds for a gilt fund that pays me a better rate on my cash than UK bank deposits and allows me to access my funds immediately at any time.
  7. Wise beats all the traditional offshore banks in terms of ease of opening accounts and convenience.
  8. I suspect rather less than the £5 million a day being spent to house illegal immigrants.
  9. Thanks for the clarification. There's usually more to these stories than meets the eye. Very lazy 'copy & paste' journalism.
  10. That kind of money should produce plenty of studies with the results the Western governments have ordered funded.
  11. Why is the government setting prices for sugar? That should be the job of the market according to supply and demand.
