Hard brexit is priority, stop the talks at any cost. I actually don't understand your deep-seated hatred for the EU, it's irrational

How you can claim that as a negative is hilarious. 3

What's your opinion on the real terms decrease in wages and real household disposable income...? Despite improvements in both GDP per head and NNDI per head, real household disposable income (RHDI) per head declined by 1.1% in Quarter 2 2017 compared with the same quarter a year ago; this was the fourth consecutive quarter that RHDI per head has decreased – the longest period of consistent negative growth since the end of 2011. https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/personalandhouseholdfinances/incomeandwealth/bulletins/economicwellbeing/apriltojune2017

It's not good, It's partly caused by an over supply of labour from Europe and partly down to the increase in inflation caused by the fall in the £. Inflation has peaked now and less Europeans are coming here now because the fall in the pound has made it less profitable for them. The trend should change with a month or two.

So inflation won't go above 3%? And most of what you've written there is nonsense. Edited 18 October 2017 by Guest

Guest Posted 18 October 2017 Posted 18 October 2017 Just now, Webbo said: Shouldn't do, obviously I can't be certain but the BoE said said so yesterday. Mark Carney said it hadn't peaked. And lack of business investment due to credit is far more likely a reason for lack of wage growth than EU citizens.

In fact the sooner he goes the better.

He'll just have to put the interest rate up then.

Record personal debt and nervousness over what will happen when rates rise means he told mps he expected to be writing to the chancellor about missing the inflation target rather than increasing rates. Though of course the boe had been getting closer to it. Unfortunately, despite the high employment, there are seriously dark clouds over inflation/interest rates/personal debt/falling wages. I'll be amazed if this doesn't end with some serious problems.

Carl the Llama Posted 18 October 2017 Posted 18 October 2017 I've been in the dark the past few days, what have the Tories done now? A very half-hearted attempt to find out why everyone's angry at them has led me to the news that calls to the universal credit line will become free of charge in the near future, as someone who's spent hours listening to their shitty hold music this past couple of months and was scandalised that it was a charged line in the first place I have no problem with that whatsoever so I'm guessing it's something else.
Guest Kopfkino Posted 18 October 2017 Posted 18 October 2017 25 minutes ago, toddybad said: In what way? Inflation currently is down to sterling's fall due to Brexit. I said partly to blame. Uncertainty has also played its part. The BoE for whatever reason decided to cut interest rates to 0.25%, and also deliver a bit more QE to inflate asset prices further. Loosening monetary policy has no doubt had an effect we already had a strong growing money supply. The pound was slowly recovering prior to that but then by this time last year it was down to 1.2 or whatever against the dollar. It was compounded by the Fed tightening. The pound drops every time we have the misfortune of Carney opening his mouth. And then the man has the gall to warn of rising debt levels and speak about housing issues. Actually, when you look at inflation figures for past months, its growing fastest in the 'recreation and cutlure' category, essentially discretionary spending. This month a little different, the rise in the oil price hasn't helped.

Guest MattP Posted 19 October 2017 Posted 19 October 2017 Corbyn is now in Brussels to tell everyone no deal isn't an option. It's hard to describe how ridiculous this is, we'll take absolutely anything you offer and we want you to know that, 50 billion, 100 billion, any trade offer, any border - you name it we'll agree to it. Thank God they aren't anywhere near these negotiations.
