Declining Pound Savior of Britain

July 4, 2016

QUESTION: Marty It looks like Carney and Osborne are talking the pound down in order to frighten people. Only one of their prophesies have come true – the lower value of sterling. But it is unhelpful that they continue to be negative – even though they’ve proved to have been wrong on all the other things […]

Islamist Terrorists Sneaking Hoards of Weapons into Europe

July 4, 2016

“British anti-terror police found a mini-arsenal of weapons when they raided a London mosque linked to a number of key terrorist suspects,” CNN reports. They discovered an arsenal of at least 100 weapons, including war-grade automatic firearms and a huge amount of ammunition. Similar caches linked to mosques are now suspected throughout Europe. This is starting […]

Can Rating Agencies be Trusted?

July 1, 2016

COMMENT: The manipulations of S&P indicate that these clowns’ output should be printed on absorbent paper. The point is exactly that this company and its directors have changed their rating based on anticipated events, and, given on the exact day as the Tory party’s leaders are being chosen, precisely in order to increase pressure on Britain’s […]

The Pound & BREXIT

July 1, 2016

COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong; I voted for remain. Contrary to the post of a very biased Brit, there is a “rift” and the person who arrogantly wrote to you clearly lives in another world. I have changed my mind and would vote to leave. What you simply wrote that Merkel made the decision on refugees by […]

British Politics in Disarray?

June 30, 2016

The “remain” crowd thinks this is all over in Britain because Boris Johnson will not seek the PM position in the Tories, and this appears to be setting up for Theresa May to take the PM position. One reader wrote a rather nasty comment: “Your supposed ‘revolt’ will never materialize, as the English themselves are quietly […]

Standard & Poor’s Reaction Shows Political Bias

June 28, 2016

Rating Agencies Testify Before Congress for their AAA-Ratings after 2007 Standard & Poors downgraded United Kingdom (UK), which is comprised of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, from AAA to AA. This shows emotional and political bias rather than any substantial change in economics; they are making good on their political threats of 2015. S&P […]

Soros Lost Big on the Pound This Time

June 28, 2016

COMMENT: Soros has been long gold and sold all his stocks. He made a fortune. REPLY: No professional trader tells people what he will do in advance. Those announcements were made AFTER Soros took a position. I believe they were stories to create his exit. You get people rushing in who think they are joining […]

Have Scottish Politicians Lost Their Minds?

June 28, 2016

  While Scottish politicians are very vocal about staying in the EU, they have really lost their minds. Their hatred for the Brits has clouded their intelligence to the point one must wonder if they even have a brain that can be turned on or if they are totally brain-dead. The greatest problem with the whole membership in […]
