Remind us which Scottish politician (clue, he was the Chancellor of the Exchequer and then Prime Minister) who sold all our gold at a very low price......"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." Cicero -

Did the UK bugger you senseless as a kid?Originally posted by scooterscot View Postyou get what you vote forScience isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

How does he have a point? If anything he (like most Europhiles) is completely missing the point.Originally posted by scooterscot View Post
The credit rating is based on an assessment of an ability to pay its debts, not how big those debts are.
A major factor for the nations in question is the measures they can take with their currencies (and other financial policies) to resolve any problems they face.
Quite simply, the UK is master of its own destiny where the other EU countries are puppets to the needs of Europe as a whole.Just saying like.
where there's chaos, there's cash !
I could agree with you, but then we would both be wrong!

Italy has more than double Switzerland or China's gold reserves.Originally posted by scooterscot View PostItaly has more han double England's gold reserves.
There be a gold mine in Scotland, don't know about those in England though...
If you want to be even more depressed, Britain has less gold than Iran."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment

Because they changed their name to Windsor.Originally posted by sasguru View PostHe's not as stupid as most Germans. At least he's beginning to understand the Anglo-Saxon plot to destroy the Euro.
Mind you the Anglo-Saxons have always bested the Teutons - see the US, Canada, Australia, NZ.
Not one of their leaders has a German name
<Insert idea here> will never be adopted because the politicians are in the pockets of the banks!Comment
