    I watch the Andrew Marr show and was watching Theresa May and she does come across as a nice person, i do hope she can bring this country back to being a great country again.
    March well that may just come in nice for all our plans , i wonder where we all shall be by then, Richer, Wiser, or more Skint and wishing we was back in the arms of Europe

    I wonder if all those 'economic experts' of doom and gloom who forecasted immediate disaster are still employed

    Wasn't Christine Lagarde one of those ?

    Indeed she was one of many, some had concerns for our well beings , but i am sure there was many who was just in fear of losing there many hundreds of thousands in salary,
    Like anything at first it all sounds so wonderful a common free market for all to use, and yes it still does sound nice , but to be in it you have to pay, do as you told, take people who you dont want, change your laws to there laws, infact you have to give up your own freedom and sovereignty .
    Dont sound good anymore does it

    I just get irritated by all the idiots demanding to know when the government are going to detail all their plans for 'Brexit', like YESTERDAY... as if the government are holding back, being inept, etc.

    Like kids in a car ... "Are we there yet?" "Are we there yet?" "Are we.... ?"

    It's going to take time. Shutup and let them get on with it !!!

    Could have done without the new Chancellor causing the pound to weaken AGAIN.

    Personally ... ... I believe Theresa May is going about things in the right manner - and just wish to God that that bumptuous wee upstart, Nicola Sturgeon, would keep her neb out of the transition process!

    ... now it's emerged that Scotland's Brexit Minister, Mike Russell, has suggested Holyrood could, conceivably, mount a challenge to Westminster's 'Repeal Bill', on constitutional grounds.

    According to Russell, legislation to transpose all EU law applicable to the UK into domestic law, would also require Scottish Parliamentary consent!

    ... then why the hell are *banks sending out letters to their customers, notifying them of plummeting interest rates on savings if *they're gonna make a profit?

    Hardly fair, and to coin a phrase ... none of it adds up [literally]
    as far as ordinary savers are concerned.

    No interest on savings or very little for our generation now.
    It's a new way of banking, they will only offer interest on fixed amounts say upto £2000 and for a year only.
