  1. Too many people and not enough houses, Hermione. For over a decade you've approved mass immigration to this country and here you are complaining about your wages stagnating and high house prices šŸ¤” Betwixt those fateful 13 years of Blair, Brown & Labour is when the floodgates were opened wide and what you should be blaming the conservatives for is their failure thus far in closing those floodgates. If you want house prices/rental to come down, you will support the UK points based immigration system that leaving the EU allows us to implement šŸ‘ Of course you could buy a 2-bedroom property for as little as Ā£3000 in your beloved EU - Bulgaria - Wages are ****e there though, in the EUs level playing field šŸ™ƒ
  2. The eurozoneā€™s Covid recession has arrived ~ 30 April 2021, 1:43pm The US is booming. The UK is set to grow at the fastest pace in half a century. China is expanding again at a blistering pace. Stock markets are rising. And commodity prices are racing ahead. Across most of the world, economists are starting to worry about a runaway boom, stimulated by too much easy money. This, they fear, could easily run out of control. There is one exception, however: the eurozone. As of today, the zone is officially in a double-dip recession. The vaccine downturn has arrived. And while the consequences remain unpredictable, one thing is clear: they wonā€™t be good. Looking at the figures from Europe out today you certainly wouldnā€™t guess there was a global recovery from the Covid-19 crisis underway. The eurozone reported a 0.6 per cent drop in quarter-on-quarter GDP. This follows on from a contraction of 0.7 per cent in the final three months of 2020, putting the zone into a technical recession, which is defined as two consecutive quarters of negative growth. The reality is that the eurozone was already the weakest link in the global economy Germany was the worst hit of the major countries, with a 1.7 per cent fall in output. Spain was down by 0.5 per cent, and Italy by 0.4 per cent (Portugal fell by an alarming 3.3 per cent). France managed to eek out a little growth, but overall output fell for the quarter. The contrast with other regions is painful. The eurozone is now the only major bloc in the world with a double dip downturn. Of course, it is not hard to work out what went wrong here. Output has been hit by the vaccination catastrophe. While other economies were starting to come out of the Covid-19 crisis, Europe messed up its inoculation programme so badly it had to lock down all over again, especially as new variants of Covid-19 took root. True, it is starting to catch up. Germany vaccinated a million people in a single day this week, and France has finally managed to get above 500,000 shots in arms a day. Supplies are improving, and it will match the rest of the developed world soon. And yet the EUā€™s programme ā€“ which was bungled after the Commission hijacked control of health policy ā€“ meant a big delay. We have already seen the health consequences of this. Deaths are running at 200 to 300 a day in France, Italy and Germany while they have dropped to 20-30 a day in the UK. Now the economic consequences of that are becoming clear as well. The reality is that the eurozone was already the weakest link in the global economy. Its main members had the slowest growth rates. Its industries were struggling to remain competitive. And its debt ratios were rising off the scale. France has overtaken Italy as the world's third largest debtor, while Italy itself is facing trouble over its woeful debt to GDP ratio. Through the Commissionā€™s bungling, its economy has just got smaller, its debts higher, and it has fallen even further behind the rest of the world. What are the consequences of this? It's hard to say. But this crisis may well mark a decisive point in the eurozoneā€™s long-term decline. BY Matthew Lynn
  3. I voted for the conservatives rather than the Brexit Party so as not to split the Brexit vote --- 80 seat majority šŸ‘ Herminge, like you, tactically voted for Steptoe and the Labour Party rather than his preferred Jo (šŸŽ¶Thanks for the mammariesšŸŽ¶) Swansong in order to not split the Remainiac vote... šŸ˜€
  4. Aye, and the Electoral Commission did/do nothing about it or the fraudulent postal votes.... But the Electoral Commission are going to investigate Boris's expenditure on soft furnishings šŸ™ƒ šŸ¤” world...
  5. 81 million votes? šŸ¤Ŗ šŸ˜€
  6. "Have you anything a tad more grey to better match my personality?" šŸ¤£
  7. Oh dear, Herminge, you obviously don't realise the majority of people see this as Sir Kneel-alot making a complete **** of himself... His message seems to be hitting hard with the voters: šŸ¤£

  10. WOW! DOJ Hacks Left Hunter Bidenā€™s Computer Hard Drives in Rudyā€™s Apartment During Raid ā€” TOOK EVERYTHING ELSE! We knew it was bad ā€” We had NO IDEA it was this bad! Power-driven Democrats turned America into a banana republic! Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is one of the most honorable politicians in America today. On Tuesday the Biden administrationā€™s Justice Department obtained a search warrant for Rudy Giuliani and used it to search his New York City apartment and office, seizing records and electronic devices. This is payback time for Joe Biden. It is well known that Rudy Giuliani exposed the Biden crime family and their illegal and unethical dealings with numerous foreign governments and regimes including Ukraine. And it is well known that the Biden Crime Family pushed the Ukrainian government to fire the prosecutor investigating Joe Bidenā€™s crooked and drug-addled son Hunter Biden. FLASHBACKā€“> ā€œQUID PRO JOEā€™ ā€” AUDIO Released of JOE BIDEN and Ukrainian President Poroshenko Discussing FIRING VIKTOR SHOKIN Who Was Investigating His Son ā€” FOR IMF LOAN!! Audio Released of JOE BIDEN Pressuring Ukrainian President Poroshenko to FIRE VIKTOR SHOKIN Who Was Investigating His Son! An audio tape was released by Creative Destruction Media where Joe Biden is pressuring former Ukrainian President Poroshenko to fire former Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin. The men discuss the firing of then Prosecutor Shokin for corrupt reasons, Earlier today the Biden DOJ bit back. Department of Justice operatives raided Rudy Giulianiā€™s home and office in New York City. Later this afternoon Rudy Giuliani released a statement about the political raid on his home and business. Rudy said the corrupt Biden DOJ took everything but the computer hard drives from Hunter Bidenā€™s laptop computer. The Biden DOJ took everything but the evidence of criminal actions that were stored on Hunter Bidenā€™s laptop! This is a travesty. Of course, the fake news mainstream media will NEVER report this. Theyā€™re in on it! Via The New York Post. šŸ˜‰
  11. You are over 50% more likely to be unemployed in the EU than in the UK In the Eurozone itā€™s worse: your chances of being unemployed are almost 70% higher Latest figures show how the UK is weathering Covid, but the EU still lags behind During the EU Referendum campaign in 2016, FactsEU.Org repeatedly pointed out the poor performance of the EU when it comes to unemployment. We did this in the face of the then Chancellor George Osborne and the then Prime Minister David Cameron seeking to scare the voting public with wild claims of immediate job losses in the UK of up to 820,000 in the event of a vote to Leave the European Union. Naturally, the pro-EU BBC eagerly seized on these irresponsible and erroneous claims It must be noted that these claims were immediate job losses ā€“ they were supposed to be the result of the vote, not even the effect of the UK leaving the EU some time later. The above picture is of the BBC's then Economics Editor, pronouncing on the "dire news". In reality, as we pointed out in the subsequent years, the number of people in jobs following the Brexit vote rose significantly. This was yet another nail in the coffin for Project Fear. No-one apologised for misleading the public in such a grotesque fashion ā€“ not the mandarins in HM Treasury (who concocted the wild figures), nor the Chancellor, nor the Prime Minister. Here is what actually happened: So where are we now and where is the EU, after Covid? Today we bring readers the latest data from the EU Commission and from the UKā€™s Office for National Statistics, showing how the EU continues to lag far behind Brexit Britain. Unemployment: The UK versus the EU United Kingdom: 4.9% EU27: 7.5% Eurozone: 8.3% Ā© Brexit Facts4EU.Org - click to enlarge The UK versus selected EU countries Spain: 16.1% Greece: 15.8% (latest figures from Dec 2020) Italy: 10.2% France: 8.0% Ā© Brexit Facts4EU.Org - click to enlarge Statistical note: The above are the normal, seasonally-adjusted figures based on the active population. OBSERVATIONS Once again, Brexit Britain outranks and outperforms the EU Back in early 2016 we were all being told that poor little Britain couldnā€™t survive as an independent country in the big, nasty world out there. Unless we were part of the great EU empire we would wither and perish. The truth is the opposite and the facts have proved that. Not only that, but Brexit Britain is set to outperform the EU bloc this year on almost every important measure. The unemployment figures above are a case in point. Facts matter. The truth matters. We happen to think that facts matter - unlike the current leader of one of the UKā€™s political parties who once told our Editor the exact opposite. (We kid you not.)
  12. Amidst all your premature excitementation over an issue so very minor, you Lefties fail where you've always failed, and that is in your understanding of those who voted for Boris and the conservatives -- You don't understand why we did, and you still don't understand why we will again. You continue to fight the same losing battle, congratulating yourselves on moral victories which resonate only in the echoing public convenience which is Lefty Twitter, whilst seemingly not realising that it is our minds you need to change, not our contempt you need to deepen - and as long as no one offers a palatable alternative the Conservative Party will rule in comfort and unfortunately without accountability.
  13. Questions about who paid for the wallpaper are a point scoring distraction at best and a dereliction of duty at worst, Hermione, and you know it.. I want Sir Wan Kier to ask Boris about the threats to our liberty and our ancient way of life by his Green agenda -- What does the new normal look like? What does the great reset consist of? Why are you imposing a vaccine App/passport when you categorically promised you wouldn't? How much will the net zero carbon nonsense cost and what liberties will you be taking away to achieve it? By how many degrees will it cool the planet or slow the supposed rise in temperature? What's being done about the woke madness that has infiltrated every aspect of our lives? Who is going to pay for the lockdowns that has wrecked the economy? The point scoring over refurbishment costs while the country is in dire straights is politicians running away from the issues that matter... What do you reckon?
  14. Maybe Dyson lent Boris the money šŸ˜€
  15. EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT FINALLY APPROVE UK-EU POST-BREXIT TRADE DEAL šŸ‘
  16. And that's how the Conservatives got an 80 seat majority šŸ¤£ Don't give up the day job.. šŸ¤£šŸ˜‚šŸ¤£
  17. Christ! How many more Billock/Squit/horsefanny/well b back alter egos does this message board need? Some Richard Cranium has gat far too much time on their hands that's for sure.
