I assumed it was just the usual Trump bashing post, those posts are all the same, no need to keep reading them over and over again

How will Brexit benefit British fisherman who have to sell 66% of their catch to EU consumers? Do you really think you will sell your Herring to New Zealand instead? Trust me. You won't.
The UK Fisherman can still sell their catch to EU Countries .

When you look at the full debt burden, the UK was in number one spot:
"In 2011, household, financial, and business debts stood at 420% of GDP in the UK. As the world's most indebted country, spending and investment were held back after the recession, creating economic malaise"
People in the UK are more inclined to buy their house and take out a mortgage , rather than rent and thats the reason why Brits have a higher personal debt
That is personal debt though, you were talking about Government debt

The stock market is certainly reacting to his failure to lead on this topic. If they felt confident in the president, the market would have settled out in a much more orderly fashion after pricing in the potential impact to the economy. The volatility going on right now is the result of their lack of trust.
Was it a good move? I think so. But, I also think it's quite sad that we only got here because Trump has been forced into a corner. Rather than taking aggressive action over the last few weeks, he's been busy trying to downplay it and contradicting his own disease control experts.
The market, which he sees as some sort of barometer of his popularity, is telling him very clearly that they're not buying the "we'll have a vaccine - and maybe even a cure - in a few months" or "when the weather gets warmer, it'll miraculously disappear" shtick.
So, yes, it's time he finally realized that he can't sweep this under the rug and he has to do something.
This is about a virus and its effects on people and the economy and the stock markets .
Very little that Trump can do to effect those things .

Why are you Brexiteers so fixated with where someone comes from?
Some Europeans would like the UK to stay in the EU for their own benefit .
Its better for them, then it is for us
I am surprised that you needed to ask such a simple question .

Do check the word 'hegemony' in both; your native language as well as what it means in English.
Sometimes the words and their meanings surprises us.
You'll know something most of the people here can't understand, even if they would want to.
You description of what the word "propulsion" means (in post #799) doesnt actually tally up with what the word actually means ,
You seem to have made up your own definition of what the word means , rather than a dictionary assisted generally accepted meaning of the word

From TV.
A phrase used by an officer, I believe in India, when others around him were in problem.
Always thought that was very selfish and unkind.
But than I not understand English humor.
Maybe someone can explain me, in short, what it really means.
So I can understand the use of this phrase by nauseus.

These kind of arguments have been run through TV Brexit threads too many times already over the last 4 years and exhausted to the point of boredom.
Yes, have to explain once again that many youngsters go to University these days , or collages that have been upgraded to Universities , whilst anyone older than...................right bored with explaining over and over again
Just see all these university graduated youngsters who still have difficulty distinguishing between *Their , There ,and They're*

How does where we are right now compare with what the vote leave campaign was promising?
What lies did Johnson tell and the things that cannot be delivered ?
(BTW, the bus slogan was a suggestion, rather than a promise)

That is how elections work

Johnson is nothing but a populist. All he ever had was sound bites and slogans. It was the politics of the dog whistle. He is also bone idle and has the attention span of a goldfish. Thats why the unelected Dominic Cummings is running number 10.
Just read a dictionary description of the word "populist" and now I agree that he is one
"a person, especially a politician, who strives to appeal to ordinary people who feel that their concerns are disregarded by established elite groups.Yes, the voters got ignored by the Politicians over the Brexit vote and Boris listened to the voters and delivered-

Boris has announced numerous new investments and policies since winning the G.E.
He also is carrying out Brexit , like he promised to do BEFORE the election (if he got elected)
Surely that makes him not a populist ?

Let us hope the 'good' Britain, the deep minds, those of open mind, the capable Britons, will free themselves of this yoke of petty nationalists. Britain would be the better for it. It can return to the fold of European nations who will shape the future.
Before you continue to interfere with UK Politics , may I ask where you are from yourself ?
You may have a hidden agenda

20 minutes ago, TheDark said:This is the core concept of populism. Every effort is aimed at winning the vote. None of the efforts is paid to the life past the vote.
Populists only want to win. Populists don't want to govern and take responsibilities which comes with winning. They are simply not mentally equipped to do so.
It's in a way good that we can now see and learn the lesson to the foreseeable future how inept populists and their actions really are. Populists are losers, even when they have won the popular vote.
Poor lads.
Boris isnt a populist

6 hours ago, Logosone said:It is not just the current UK government, you are right, also the previous governments have made bad economic mistakes.
Why did Thatcher close all the big industrial powerhouses and take a gamble on 'Knowledge industries'. That paid off well, didn't it, UK manufacturing base now down to 20% of the overall economy and falling.
Why did Blair not start a sovereign wealth fund of the size of Norway's fund, which will now protect Norway from the massive outfall of oil sector meltdown?
Why did Cameron offer a Brexit vote and thus lead to an exodus of 1.7 trillion GBP worth of assets out of the City (so far)?
But the current UK government is particularly in danger of making economic mistakes, firstly because it is ideologically stuck in Little Englander country and does not understand that the closer it wants access to the EU markets, the closer it will have to follow EU rules. What's more the economic challenges that are about to come are far too great for failed journalists like Boris and Gove.
I'm afraid the UK has distinguished itself by making more economic policy mistakes than any other country in the developed EU.
For Germany falling oil prices will actually be greatly beneficial once coronavirus disappears, as Germany is a producing country and the cheap oil will help Germany and China. Once China is back this will again help Germany. But the UK, well, you're 80% services. And you have the second largest oil sector in Europe. Germany does not. Germany's bet on renewable and green energy, all those windmills and such turned out to be a smart move after all. Goodbye oil, hello sustainable energy. Goodbye UK economy, it was nice to help you while we could. But you messed it up.
Please, can we rejoin the EU, PLEASE
We are all so sorry for leaving and we really want to come back
Please forgive us, we didnt know what we were doing .
All the old people who voted Brexit and will all soon be dead from corona
And there will be just young remainers left .
Please let us back in again , we dont mind paying extra this time and we wont want a rebate .
So sorry, please lets us in again

The truth is, as has been pointed out by far more eloquent and learned people than me, that Johnson's political viewpoint seems to be dependent solely upon that which he considers to be most advantageous for himself. Don't forget, this is the man who was so ideologically bound to leaving the EU that he wrote two articles about Brexit, one in favour of it and one against it, and waited to see which way the wind was blowing before deciding which to print.
I was referring to the "he is a liar, a cheat, corrupt, racist, homophobic." bit

Is that supposed to mean that he bought the masks in China or was going to distribute the masks in China ?
