[the truth]

Since the day before Brexit June 22nd the stock markets after 1 day fall in ftse 100 of 8%, the news said 8% fall was £120 bilion, but overall the 3 ftse's have gone up and up
Ftse100 increased by 420
Ftse 250 increased by 260
Ftse 350 increased by 530
so if 15 billion is 1%
ftse 100 6793 (6373) 6,6% = £98 billion
ftse250 17460 (17200) 1.5% = £22.5 billion
ftse 3750 (3220) 16.45% = £246 billion
According to the calculations of the news therefore we should be worth £366 billion richer! The gdp up to june 22nd was up, the unemployment was down to 4.8% and the steel works have effectively been saved by devaluing the pound? Yet NONE of this is mentioned in the mainstream news, where all we hear from them and ex goldman sachs man, mark carney, the the governor of the bank of england, is talking the economy down and more quantitative easing to encourage the banks to lend? umm printing money creates inflation and makes us all poorer? the banks havent loaned money for 8 years and no one saves with them either? They use an absurd credit scoring system which prevents prudent people getting loans. The powers that be at the top always say dont talk down the economy yet thats all theyre dooing? So whats their real game?


Since this post the total rise is 1660 points for the 3 ftse's in total since June 22nd
That equates to around £500 billion? an astonishing rise in wealth of our top companies? as yet unreported by mainstream news?

We've just shelled out nearly £400 on new wheel bearings, and also we need a new cooker. This money really has come at the best possible time.

We'll be 28 bazillion dollars richer when we do, and everyone will get a free puppy (perfectly trained, so as not to cause you any hassle).

Britain is for sale... any money we have is due to the sale of the century, not any recovery.

[the truth]

the stock markets are way up, the unemployment rate is at record low, inflation is low, gdp up to brexit was better than expected...yet all we still get from the masters of the universe is fear, doom and gloom.....the masters of the universe have never been so scared...why? because we have seen through them,,,,they are emperors with no clothes,,,,the markets, the economies can run and be as effective as ever without most of these clowns perverting it for their own ends. this is why the world is always at war, the masters of the universe convince us we have to bomb a third world country, our poorest people go and fight and die...we dont look after them when theyre injured we give them a worthless medal....for what? to keep the power structure in place for the masters of the universe and to make them an absolute fortune...fck the power structure, fck the warmongers, fck the masters of the universe, wed be better off without them

The FTSE has held up remarkably well but its obvious that overall the economy has been hit by Brexit. The pound is at its lowest level since the crash, interest rates have had to be cut, growth forecasts have been downgraded and the BoE has said that there are signs that there is a shock setting into our economy.

It might be true that we have not suffered as much as many feared (yet) but its obviously nonsense to say that the EU vote has helped the economy

the actual FACTS are everything so far has improved ...the UK economy si flying compared to nearly every EU nation, unemployment, gdp, growth , house prices, etc But , the forecasts are mostly hypothetical, though I dont doubt some of the uncertainty will hit some short term business....the best thing would simply be to sign article 50 within the next 6 months and get out of that titanic as it stands. we can still renegotiate different deals from afar. I dont believe half the scaremongering from our exposed leaders and warmongerers

Couldn't come at a better time for us...interest on savings not too good so spend the beggar i say, in the interest of the country of course.

Our life has had major changes, hubby has been made redundant so he has decided he will retire early.
Then we had to decide what to do with the future in mind,.....move to a bungalow waiting for old age or to stay in the house we love and future proof it, so we have decided on staying and doing a renovation job.
Our house is a very modern 4 bed, we are going to downsize it to a three bed and extend one of the bathrooms into the 4th, then convert the garage ,stick a full length extension on the back so we can have an open plan kitchen/diner/family room. We need some of the extra space to have a " Beam me up Scotty" lift installed. No doubt there will be some very frazzled nerves along the way

Spot on, the real test will come when and if article 50 is triggered and then there is a time clock ticking.
A lot of those voting believed, on both sides, that article 50 would be triggered quickly, now it is clear it will not be until 2017 at the earliest,if even then.

Superb, Staying put is the right decision, it costs so much money to move now as well just a waste especially if you are happy where you are
