[Merged]Brexit stuff (part 2)

[shaunbhoy]

I so admire your mindless optimism, shauny.

If scooter and GB9 met in the bar at a village idiot's convention, had a straw chewing competition and then drunkenly consummated their new found connection, and GB9 then drank vodka all the way through his pregnancy, and then raised the child in a Glasgow tenement but loved it so dearly that he couldn't bear for it to go outside where it might be teased mercilessly for its stupidity, and instead sat it in front of the telly feeding it a diet of crisps, until one day social services had the child rescued through the wall by the Fire Brigade and then placed the child with scooter in Devon, where due to the lack of any realistic employment opportunities the monks at Buckfastleigh Abbey agreed to apprentice the child, but the child became hopelessly addicted to Buckie and was released into a Community Care setting, that child would be you, shauny.

And he would probably be doing your appraisals.

UK stocks to plummet by 80%

That is the prediction of a "Brexiteer".

We are now destined to have a recession in the U.K. as well as inflation,” Odey wrote. “It will be difficult for the stock market to remain above all of this.” An official at the $8.8 billion London-based investment firm didn’t respond to a call and e-mails seeking comment.
Odey, who spoke in favor of Brexit before the vote in June, hasn’t made money at his main Odey European Inc. fund since 2014, when it gained 5.5 percent. He was down almost 13 percent last year.

He should be talking the economy up like the rest of us.

Have you got the figures for European countries outside of the EU?

I don't see Georgia on that list. And apparently that's in Europe.

There appear to be no limits to your abilities scooter. It is heartening to know that, even in the aftermath of a global recession, the quintessential Teuchter Village Idiot can still command such fees!!

I also make cracking omelettes.

Clearly Shauny is a member of Scotlands upper class.

Punctuation - the true class identifier.

There was a time (pre-QE) when hedge funds were actually hedge funds. Now, everyone is an investing genius and all stocks are permanently undervalued.

Until they aren't.

I think the typical Brexiter is someone who believes in democracy.

You morons lost. Just get used to it.

And yet if it had been 52-48 the other way you'd have been crying like a spoiled baby about government misleading, etc, not applauding democracy.

People have a right to continue to campaign for whatever the heck they believe in, and whinge about the result and the reason for it... that is PART of living in a free democratic society. Get used to it.

4%? More like 25% if you're buying a Macbook

Inflation 'set to soar to 4% by late 2017'


'Another day of Britain lurching towards disaster - with the Tories' plan being to throw money at multinational companies to get them to stay, while assuming that the EU is going to grant the UK tariff-free access, despite the EU consistently and persistently warning that it won't happen - UNLESS the UK government accepts freedom of movement.'

Bloody Remoaner. That's great news because it makes UK tech more competitive!
