chalga 10 #4225 Posted May 14, 2015 That's your take on it. Two national newspapers, I haven't looked for any more, beg to differ.. There's some nice graphs in this one http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3079786/Gloomy-Bank-England-downgrades-growth-forecast-Carney-signals-rates-rise-year.html Well,If you think that 2 newspapers that are saying they know more about what Carney is thinking/saying than Carney himself..........I would have thought that if they knew more about Carney than he does,they could make millions in a very short time.

chalga 10 #4227 Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) This is what happens when you try to be clever about resigning: Suzanne Evans, nominated as leader when Mr Farage briefly quit, was said to be furious at being “absolutely humiliated” when he changed his mind. “He is very deceitful. He is a backstabber," said one. “He falls out with people, treads on them and walks on. This is the last time he does that. I hope he will be gone by the end of the week. “This has been a volcano boiling for months and years, and last week he sat back on top of it. Ukip has got as far as it has because of Nigel, and it will go no further because of Nigel http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/ukip/11606854/Ukip-meltdown-how-the-absence-of-Nigel-Farages-body-armour-triggered-a-day-of-self-destruction.html Edited May 15, 2015 by chalga Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

One or two members are "creating" but as was said on the radio this morning - it happens! ---------- Post added 15-05-2015 at 09:21 ---------- Suzanne Evans, nominated as leader when Mr Farage briefly quit, was said to be furious at being “absolutely humiliated” when he changed his mind. ] Who said she was "furious"?

MikeFrank 10 #4230 Posted May 15, 2015 Well,If you think that 2 newspapers that are saying they know more about what Carney is thinking/saying than Carney himself..........I would have thought that if they knew more about Carney than he does,they could make millions in a very short time. He did say it but back tracked the next day when, no doubt, his politician buddies had a word. It is basic maths. The more of whatever is available, labour, cucumbers or liquorice allsorts the cheaper the asking price will be.. Its common sense and what happens in business..

harvey19 541 #4231 Posted May 15, 2015 Nigel Farage was dignified and confident on Question Time last night and didn't dodge any points put to him. Steven Woolfe spoke very well on the radio this morning. No doubt this squabble will soon be over in the party but I am sure some people will bring it up for years to come.

Cloudsailors 10 #4233 Posted May 15, 2015 There are hardly any British people unwilling to work for a fair wage. It's myth. There may be people unwilling to work because the pay is not enough to pay for a basic existence but there's a difference. Its fine to invite people from abroad who will... by living cheaply in very difficult circumstances for a while... but at some point the pay needs increasing. Not only for the British but for all. Its easy to get into the game of foreign workers against the British ones like this but in reality the British workers are as good as any in the world. We didn't build one of the richest nations in the world by loafing about all day. I agree, if people merely earn enough to sustain a meagre existence how can they pump money back into the economy? As for immigrants who will work for a pittance, that "pittance" is a fortune to them but many send a large chunk of that money "back home". With regard to all these "menial" jobs that allegedly we allow immigrants to take? offer them to the British who WONT work and if they dont accept them, then stop their benefits. At least the money stays here. The housing crisis is only a "crisis" because of an exploding population. Why allow more people in the country then? Our footballers earn astronomic wages for kicking a ball about and most of them are from abroad, the governor of our bank is a foreigner, many doctors and specialists are foreigners .... all high paid jobs.. is that a fault of the british "not willing to work" .. or a fault in the education system? oh but then "Governor of the Bank of England" wouldn't pop up in a job search would it? UKIP's mr farage is the only one with a strong enough character to voice the obvious. The voting system's a farce, set up in such a way that widens the north/south rich/poor divide. How is it that the libs get 8 seats in parliament when ukip beat them hands down? No wonder the country is in a mess, it's a laughing stock. 75% of the voters were against the tories .. but they still got in? Stick a couple of hundred thousand immigrants on tory doorsteps and see who gets the vote then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
MikeFrank 10 #4234 Posted May 15, 2015 I agree, if people merely earn enough to sustain a meagre existence how can they pump money back into the economy? I read somewhere that only those who earn £35,000 pay enough tax to pay for the public services we uses. This why it's sensible not to introduce policies that hit the rich hard. They help pay for all our public services. People don't seem to get that. They hear about rogue companies like Starbucks paying no tax but without other big business and the rich we'd be stumped..

chalga 10 #4235 Posted May 15, 2015 What are they eating while in the UK.........Or are they bringing sandwiches from home? Who are they paying rent to for the places they are staying.........or does that money get pumped back into outer space? Who are the ones that have set up businesses paying tax to?..........and where does that money go to? ---------- Post added 15-05-2015 at 10:25 ---------- He didn't "change his mind". He resigned as Leader (as promised), tendered his resignation (as promised) which in turn the NEC refused to accept. It has happened before even in Cabinet so what's the deal? Best ask UKIP what the deal is.........they are the ones arguing among each other as a result of what Farage did and numerous other things to do with the election campaign.

Cloudsailors 10 #4236 Posted May 15, 2015 the businesses that seem to fold or change hands at the end of the tax year? .. The landlords who set extortionate rents for the grubby bedsits they overpopulate? who then get those rents paid for by the benefits system and systematically send the money back home.
