Brexit: UK's divorce bill from EU could rise to £42.5bn
nauseus replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
17.8% from Belgium! Well how about that? Although EU HQ is in Brussels that's another good reason to leave. Typical though - second highest net contributor gets a just few token EU jobs in the gravy boat. -

The solution was not to join in the first place. The referendum "promises" were rightly taken with a pinch of salt by most, who had already decided what they wanted, one way or the other. -

The UK was and is paying for much more than just our own EU employees. -

Goes back much further than Macron and it was not all about immigration. -

The EU should pay in any case. Why is France full of these people waiting for boats? -

Not really. This insane pension pot scam is one good reason -
1/ QE with low interest rates. 2/ Biden 'green' policies, pipeline cancellation, stops on new drilling in federal properties, reviews of O&G leasing and suspension and delays of same have all deterred producers from investing in new oil and risk. Yes, agree that will take time to ramp up .... if it happens. 3/ Your forecast may be correct but that doesn't address the problem now. 4/ It doesn't matter what I advocate.

I am referring to Joe Biden's "administration", which needs to change several policies, especially relating to US energy production. Why do you think his domestic approval ratings are so low now? Lower fuel prices will lower prices of everything and are possible. Fix the shortfalls in US production first, then Europe and elsewhere will improve too, although Europe is far more affected by the war than the US. If America is to continue using oil, then they can and should use their own energy and so cut out any need for desperate Saudi trips. Much better for Joe's image for him to stay at home than take off on AF1 with its enormous escort, depositing even more CO2 across the northern hemisphere skies... for nothing.

Partly true but bear in mind that Greenland wasn't as it is, and where it is now, that long ago. -
Your "fact". Not mine. Apart from Covid year, the average annual debt increase was higher under Obama than Trump. Some of that Fed balance increase (debt) was due to the regime of multiple sounds of QE (money printing) that initially worked to ease US markets in the aftermath of the 2008 GFC. The cumulative effect of QE has helped produce the high inflation we see today.
