Put a number on that, not a percentage.

Are you sure rape/incest related pregnancies are rare? Do you live in the real world?

There is nothing radical about holding dominion over ones own body.

I’m rather keen on the idea of what I do with my body being a private matter between me and the health professionals I consult with for medical advice, and not being determined by ‘public opinion’. So leave it between the individual and the medical professionals they consult with.

Over a decade ago. But thanks for keeping notes.

People spending money at the bottom of the economy doesn’t stimulate growth? There’s sure to be a Nobel Prize for that if you can prove it.

Why would anyone invest in a country that has deliberately cut itself off from tarring free access to its single biggest market? Perhaps it’s the abysmal productivity that’ll attract them.

My observation is factually correct.

I met with a friend this afternoon, an English guy who has been retired here for over 15 years. He tells me he’s very worried about the exchange rate fall. Just an ordinary guy trying to enjoy his last years after a life time of hard work. The policies being enacted by this government are negatively impacting very many people, while helping the already wealthy.

Mortgage holders are going to be delighted.

People on low incomes spend increases in money they receive in the local economy, that spending stimulates economic activity from the bottom up. Local spending, local businesses, local communities.

Dealing with inflation is obviously necessary, the BoE are on it. Borrowing money to give tax cuts in a ‘growth gamble’ is lunacy. 1. It works directly against the BoE efforts to control inflation. 2. It burdens tax payers and the economy with debt. 3. It deflated the pound, thereby increasing inflation. 4. It goes nothing to address the cost of living crisis. It does however hand tens of billions to people who are already wealthy. Meanwhile millions of people in the UK are unable to afford regularly meals.

You assume Truss has any say in BoE interest rates, she does not. Moreover she has signaled she may remove BoE independence. Right now the BoE is increasing interest rates to quell inflation and the Exchequer is borrowing money to reduce taxes, thereby increasing available cash in the economy. This clearly is not a coordinated plan. Running across a busy road with your eyes shut could also be referred to as ‘a bold move’, or ‘crass stupidity’.

I was right, she was the opposition’s preferred candidate. And she’s making exactly the mess I and many others predicted. But congratulations, you did manage to find Truss’ foremost supporter, who I was responding to. Oddly, since getting what he wanted he’s gone very quiet.

Let’s see if you can find a post in which I support Truss for PM.

Pinned.

Wandering off topic again are we?

Not much use to fill the exchange loss in the meantime.

Roll profits from shorting the pound into buying stock at the bottom of a crashed market - Kerr-Ching.

Sadly many people don’t have the awareness or ability to make long term financial plans around market fluctuations. So let’s not blame them and ask why is the Government enacting policies that are damaging the economy and that they warmed would damage the economy?

Pause for a moment: You are getting all eaten out over not being able to read the contents of a stolen diary. Now have a word with yourself.

The Republicans are showing the nation who they are.

I think ‘The Left’ are almost certainly watching Truss tank the economy while handing tens of £billions to the already wealthy while thinking ‘this is her honeymoon period’. Or they might be observing he chief of staff being questioned by the FBI regarding election rigging. Or perhaps they are observing the fact Truss has actively sought to antagonize Tory MPs who didn’t support her. Regardless’The Left’ did not hound Johnson out, he was ousted by his own party.

‘If’ and ‘I think’.

They make even more money when they are ‘given the nod’.
