So we have cleaned up the thread and will be reopening for it to continue as the State of the Market, not the State of the UK.
There will be stricter moderation from now on. Anyone not discussing the State of the Market will be banned. Anyone goading others while not swearing will be banned....

DM’s are not allowed for the first few posts, to ensure that new posters are not spammers.
I don’t recommend DM’s unless people know who they are dealing with.
