A Short(Ish) Rant ...

[sunny-dave]

Today's financial 'crisis' has nothing to do with the rights/wrongs of the referendum result. It is entirely generated by the bankers and speculators playing their obscene games in the stock markets and exchanges of the world. As usual they will keep the winnings if they are lucky and we will pick up their debts if they guess wrong.

Essentially the country is being punished for not voting the way that the Metropolitan Elite and their Banking chums wanted - we are naughty children and so must suffer. Osborne is complicit in this - he predicted armageddon, sat on his hands all weekend to ensure it happened, and is about as effective as a chocolate fireguard with his wibbling today

There is absolutely no logic to the financial panic - it's (at least) two years until much will change and there is loads of time to do things in an orderly way - but it's an opportunity not to be missed by the pondlife who inhabit the sewers of the finance world - as usual it's a one-way bet with no downside, as they are "too big to fail" and so must be bailed out if they screw-up.

It's about time we put an end to them playing casino games with our lives and money ... ‪#‎shoot_the_effing_bankers‬

It's affecting markets all around the world. I think completely changing the world's financial system may take a while. We could have a referendum though on any decent proposals

Yes, OG. It's just about perception, tilly, any uncertainty means people behave differently.

Sunny D...the markets rule the world...twas ever thus I'm afraid.

[pixie374]

I've only been able to bob in and out a little lately but of the posts I have seen Old Geezer seems to be making the most level headed and sensible remarks......
