Yeah, sovereignty sounds horrible as oppose to being the german's lapdog. Remoaners are such morons.

German lapdog?

 

thats the problem right there. People who are so full of self loathing, they think cooperation with our closest friends and neighbours is akin to subjugation by a foreign power.

Please don't confuse co-operation (which we had in the EEC) with control (that we have from the EU).

 

Oh..... and distinguish loathing of the EU from self-loathing.

Cooperation? Not much really.

 

Subjugation, close - becomes much closer if "May's" WA is passed - at least until year 20XX. 

39 baht? It's looking like it'll be 35 sometime this week.

If the UK was really under the control of Germany it would be in the Euro, Germany would set our tax rates and decide on our annual budget, and how many Police we have, or military spending, or spending on education, etc. The fact is it doesn’t and never has.

 

When people make these remarks they only serve to highlight their own ignorance ... something that Brexit supporters wear like a badge of pride.

 

The other nonsense spouted on here is the imminent collapse of the Euro and the EU itself. But in fact it’s the pound that’s collapsing and the UK that will soon be split.

The EU plan to have more control over UK taxes, foreign policy and our military, if we stay. Staying within the EU will see imposition of the Euro eventually. These are major reasons why a majority voted to leave.

 

The collapse of the Euro is not impossible  - countries and currencies outside Europe are not immune either - the UK, EU and others are heading for hard and difficult economic times right now, Brexit or not.

 

The Euro is a political currency and it is the most powerful tool for controlling EU members, who, if they use the Euro, have no realistic chance of leaving the EU and escaping total economic ruin anyway.

 

Germany remains the main power within the EU, with France as the deputy sheriff, as must be obvious to all, except the totally ignorant, now.

Do you really think that they would publish such a shocker all as one? Part of their intent  is revealed in the "vision" below. Especially what Macron says about the Euro on p.21 I think.

 

Enjoy....

Moved some more sterling out at 37.32 today then dropped a bit.. feels like playing blackjack at the moment.  but as long as Boris and the brexit clowns keep ‘delivering’ I’m getting face/aces first card (I’m a staunch remoaner btw if you haven’t guessed but I’m trying to make the best of a bad situation - my Thai wife and son deserve the best I can give them)

I see John Bolton is in the U.K. encouraging us to destroy our economy so the US can pick up U.K. assets at a knock down price.

Shouldn't be all that difficult.

 

Just look for currency traders who are in business to LOSE money.  ????

 

 

This is what brexit is all about

 

Paying Britain workers less money with poorer working conditions.

brexiteers have had their pants pulled down by some very clever billionaires but they can’t see it 

JPMorgan

With a new UK government that seems committed to leaving the EU by October 31, we now believe that a no-deal Brexit is the most likely outcome. In this scenario, we expect the BoE to cut the bank rate 50bp by H1 20 and the currency to depreciate 9% on a NEER basis. Assuming this, we think a no-deal is fully priced into the inflation markets, well priced in equity, about 50% in credit, unevenly priced across rates, and moderately priced in equity derivatives.

 

FX Strategy: We forecast sterling falling to historic lows on a real trade-weighted basis, with GBPUSD as low as 1.09 and EURGBP rising to 0.99. Once the dust settles, however, we expect long-term bargain hunting and the reduction in uncertainty to lead to a partial rebound in GBP vs. the EUR.

Pound strengthened today on the news that Brexit has pretty much been cancelled.

Quote

"The British Parliament has been officially prorogued after Queen Elizabeth II approved Prime Minister Boris Johnson's request to suspend the legislative body until October 14. The prorogation order said: "Order proroguing Parliament no earlier than Monday 9th September and no later than Thursday 12th September 2019 to Monday 14th October 2019, and directing the Lord High Chancellor of Great Britain to prepare a Commission accordingly."

It’s over now and the Tories know it. There is no way proroguing parliament will be allowed to stand.

 

Vote of no confidence very soon and a GE that Boris knows he cannot win.

 

 

You mean 3.9? It should be able to hold that despite Boris at the helm. As for 39, there's as much possibility of that as having a snow storm in Phuket. There's a theoretical possibility but not terribly likely.

It is time for this <deleted> to come to an end. I hope for a fast Brexit. Close the tunnel. Cancel all ferry services. Cancel all flights. Disconnect them from the internet. And then hope that the sea level rises sharply in the coming years.

 

I'm completely done with it. Nobody in the EU deserves to see every day what a mess they make of it. I have been to the UK several times. And always had the impression that it was not much more than a lagging third world country. Travelling in the UK always feels like going back a century in time. I just don't understand that they think it is necessary to prove every day that their country is like a banana republic.

 

I do expect some negative comments. But I think everyone knows I am right.
