Insulate Britain protests

[cunning fergus]

So you keep claiming Rob, but you are more than happy to work for one of their donors and reap the rewards of the contracts that come from them.

Another contender for weirdo of the year.

This unhealthy interest some people on here have with me, what I do, where I live, what I wear is cute but it’s a bit desperate isn’t it? Why do you care?

By the way, you are completely wrong on the above statement on ALL counts……..freezing cold.

For a stalker, you’re a bit of a failure……..familiar territory for you though I suspect.

1) pretty sure I say less on this forum than you and other empty vessels eh? Resorting to insults is a good indication of who the empty vessel is
2) compared to the doomsayers predictions of the effect of Brexit on the city and its business the city and its associated services are positively thriving, vacancies are up, pay is up, MA is up, new markets have been created (eg with new trading relationship with Switzerland). Rising pay without increasing productivity helps no one it causes inflation, job vacancies are fine if you can find people to fill them, New markets like the deals with Japan & Australia hardly are growing the economy and reall are not 'green'. Regards the CITY you say its positively thriving so you are saying it was better than before Brexit , don't think so though agreed it hasn't collapsed yet
3) if you can show, mass redundancies, pay cuts, partial or complete market closure, catastrophic collapse of order flow be my guest, you won’t find it. not sure what you mean by that but if you mean supply chain ability to deliver then it has certainly been worse and bordering on terrible for Northern Ireland
4) as per EUs extension of clearing continuing in London, anyone with a shred of understanding would appreciate the difficulties connected to the EU seeking to replicate the UK financial services structures. still early days and yes we have been saved as the skills and markets have not been as transferable as the EU would like e.g. Paris has only taken 5000 jobs from London when it was expecting to take 10000 but still 5000 jobs and whether we like the financial industry (bankers) they are a major source of income because we have killed off other industries
5) even if they had an endless supply of money, battalions of stormtrooper style lawyers, agreement on what countries would benefit from the transfer of business, they are years and years away, (that’s assuming the city stands still). as said in point 5 yes they are annoyed their wins have been smaller but there is still a loss of financial jobs in the financial sector

So there it is, as most rational people knew, on this side of their strategic responsibilities the EU is suffering from small dick syndrome. They just need to get used to having a big leathery union jacked corey being slapped into their face every day. so where what is ? I many others am tangibly no better off. Next you want to discuss dick size says it all

The strange thing is I am not a big fan of the EU organisation but voted remain because it was a better choice than what was proposed I would vote remain because I have seen nothing to convince me otherwise. Getting back control to give it to Boris and Co is a joke and closing the borders when we have had record levels of cross channel immigrants is farcical.

The only winners post Brexit are the wealthy

You lot are mental! How the f**k did this end up arguing about Brexit

I honestly reckon some people think about Brexit every second of every day

You could merge the whole Bear Pit into the Brexit thread to be honest. Maybe time to do that and colour code the regulars' user names; red for leave, green for remain and pink for "still only on a wind up despite Bozza's sticky post".

Business as usual.

Do you mean the disaster caused by sub prime lending in America, which was quickly addressed by the actions of Gordon Brown (albeit this being a global financial crisis its effects were felt long after the initial event and Brown received no recognition or credit for his actions), and that has been backfilled in the minds of everyone as a crisis caused by Brown by the relentless baiting of him in the media, an easy exercise owing to Brown's weird face and peculiar mannerisms, and that resulted in a tory government that used austerity to 'rebalance' the economy so that nobody can now buy a property unless they already have one to sell, or a bank of mum and dad to tap up? Or do you mean some American Browne I've never heard of?

I was bored of seeing Wilf every time I posted. It is - of course - a reference to an Underworld song.

Might go back to the pint one soon......

What happened to UK government's Green Homes Grant scheme?

Seems like no replacement for it, poor...

...and what do you think of this partisan 'Sun' article?

Have little sympathy for the Katie Price impersonator

As time goes on Insulate Britain's cause will be vindicated, utility bills about about to surge again. This could be the last winter with relatively cheap power folks, the cap will be lifted soon

'if'.....?

Isn't the Sun renowned for telling the unmediated truth?

When I first saw the headline...

'A MUM who allegedly nudged an Insulate Britain activist with her SUV has been charged with assault.'

... I assumed it was a physical nudge and not a push using a gas guzzling 4X4. One day she may be grateful for the tough stand the protestors made... then again.... maybe not. Somehow she seems unconcerned about the precarious state of the planet....
