The rosier economic outlook seems to have only lasted 20 days. Life is a roller coaster eh?

Time to short the pound against dollar and euro..

The U.K.'s Economic Outlook Is Getting Rosier, just like the slump in the early 70s.
Good old 70s with Laker, Court Line, Clarkson's etc going to the wall

Weak sterling partly to blame. Nice work Brexiteers.

Monarch flights cancelled as airline ceases trading

Around 110,000 customers are currently overseas and the government has asked the
CAA to charter more than 30 aircraft to bring them back to the UK.
Monarch is the UK's fifth biggest airline and the country's largest ever to go into administration.
Monarch, founded in 1968, employs about 2,500 people and is made up of a scheduled airline, tour operator and an engineering division.

If the choice is utter collapse vs feed the fire then like all economists they will find a way to print money for ever

Whatever, but I'm more interested in whether you're putting money on Merkel to lose. If I were you I would.

Since 1980.

The question is how much can be borrowed?

I'm still wondering what will happen to Angela Merkel at the next election. Radio 4 was talking about her this morning and making such a big point about how everyone loves her. Now we all know just how in tune our media is with the grass roots.

Anyone think its worth a little bet against her winning?

I would put your life savings on her to lose. It's a dead cert, she's a dead woman walking.
