LOL.

I laughed early yesterday morning when the "expert" financial pundits said, "Oh no, the Fed won't bring in rate cuts early. That would signal a panic."


Isn't it also amusing how the so called highly paid, hugely bonused, financial experts in the worlds big banks have all screwed up big time to the tune of billions being written of as bad debt and billions being wiped of the stock markets. I reckon the average housewife would do a better job.

I read a story in one of the freebies given out at the train station this morning regarding the young woman murdered in Croydon and the trial of her alleged killer. He is claiming that he had sex with her dead body but didn't kill her. I don't know which is the more heinous crime, and why he would think that one is less despicable than the other. It makes your skin crawl.

With so much 'informed' opinion in the press coming from briefings in hotels or armchair pundits *ahem, wouldn't know about that* it's good to see good journalism can still get into the mainstream.


It's long at 11 pages but worth the effort

    • But a larger number, in a more hotly contested election, didn't. It is an anomaly that Starmer won a landslide in seats with a turnout for Labour which would have shamed Labour leaders in all the 21st and much of the post war 20th century.
    • I was not suggesting anything else!   I'm not sure how you interpret what I said  as "irrelevant"? I was responding to a post saying that Corbyn was "unelectable". My point was that a  large number  of the electorate  voted for him!
    • that's exactly what happened - Brickhouse were forced to close due to rent hike and then Gail's didn't move in until covid restrictions lifted and normality resumed. Gail's would have opened much sooner as they were lined up and able to offer the landlord much higher rents. Brickhouse was a local favourite
    • The Brickhouse closed just before Covid December 2019. Nothing to do with Gails muscling in as they didn't move into till December 2022. Stop trying to fit a false narrative into a story
