But overall the investment is almost nothing lads

Everyone is waiting for the negotiations to end first

Before committing

also the dropping pound due to everlasting low rates is also spurring more investment

Wacka are you listening

The investment is way down since brexit

Why do you think your gdp growth is 1% ?

Yes, coz of the back and forth of half in, half out. You wait.

Or was it 0.1 ?

Yeah

incorrect tho

Most investors w8

At least they are not selling

So i would count that as win

UK investment was down 3.3 in 2015 .. in 2016 it was up 0.7 and 2017 up 1.3

I get your logic .. but the data shows otherwise

Yeah and the data for 2018 ?

Fiscal year has only just started.

up 0.3 then down 0.2

https://ig.ft.com/sites/numbers/economies/uk

the quarters from jan 2017 to jan 2018
+0.3
+1.2
+0.8
+0.3
-0.2

that -0.2 ... thats what remainers look at and say OOOOOOOOOOOOOOH

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-44350407

Well we will see which way it will go soon enough

Isnt the final date somewhere in october ?

I doubt it... I imagine all we will hear is .. when any little thing isnt quite as expected it will be "thats all down to brexit.. if we didnt brexit every UK citizen would be a mutli millionaire by now"

should be june 19th or something

Well i suspect lots of ppl voting brexit should feel disappointed by now

2019

Honestly would not surprise me if they make you remain in customs union in the end

Just rename it

every fellow leave voter I speak to is only disappointed that we haven't left yet

Thats what i mean

what I like to do in those BBC articles... is go straight to the comments and order by highest voted 😃

the constant anti brexit default position on the BBC.. is clearly getting to people

My bet is corbyn pm by 2019

😔

thats actually a possibility ... if someone like UKIP splits the vote of the tories

I think the tories need to help out the lib dems more 😛

Ukip will not be needed tbh

They are split right now

And public hates that

Next election they will get murdered

its not needed... but if people start doing it as a protest vote... or just to point out the frustration over freedoms being stomped on... it could split the vote and labour might get in

which is a shame cos I just bought a property... and dont really want the gov to take it from me 😛

its going to take the rest of my life to pay it off 😛

and then some

the property is only 10m from Heathrow... Ive read some reports that said , although rental value might go up, they figure the price might not necessarily go up much, after this new announcement of a heathrow expansion of an extra runway

What's the point of this

some people just need something to rebel to so they feel fancy

given his size, maybe he just got tired

"i've been standing for hours" *kneels. short time later anthem starts* "i should probably stand but fuck i'm still tired." *some time later* "...why am i on the news for being lazy?"

I think its the border between imobbility and extreme obesity

Unlikely. Patriotism stirs the loins and adrenaline glands.

fat absorbs and stores hormones like adrenaline

what patriotism? and that dudes loins haven't been seen nor heard of since birth.

Well you only really do research work when funding is involved, which allows for more contributors, so I see that as true.

given that google is heavily leftist, and leftists have abandoned science, this is not a surprise.

IHOB

B stands for B-watch Tim Pool every day at 4.

oh shit.. huge fire in knightsbridge london

litereally the most expensive place in the UK

costs around 1million for a 200sq ft room

100 firefighters trying to put it out

Then they should be able to pay for it.

Or that area will quickly become much cheaper to live in.

I doubt it... people will probably pay millions just for whatever rubble is left over

apparently the 5star hotel that caught fire has just had a multi million pound renovation

the insurance payout will be massive

So then it will fix itself before a month as gone by.

Unlike poor areas that will just remain burned.

as long as their insurance premiums are paid up

@Grenade123 You're from the US aren't you? I want to start a fight. I think the US should have a NHS. Fight me.

im also american

i think the argument for the united states having nhs would be better if the nhs didint have so many problems its been a joke for 20 years

How's the doctor shortage?

The NHS has been taken a bit for a ride as of late. I wouldn't go back as far as 20 years.

No one is going with out a Dr

It is a sign that a comunity has decided breaking a leg will not crush your life. Everyone has everyone elses back.

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/01/23/hospitals-gp-practices-have-shortage-doctors-survey-suggests/

your news media seems to think otherwise

i really dont hear any storys of people breaking a leg here in the united states being the end of their lives

I'm not going to read the BBC and esp the guardian. The NHS is a stick to beat who ever is in power with.

truth be told, i haven't really heard of any good system. You have affordable, available, and quality. You can only have 2.

one of the main reasons shit costs so much over here is insurance companies inflating prices to something stupid

The broken leg thing is more of a metaphor. Having something happen to you that was not your fault should not put you in massive debt.

You have a profit based system and no other choice. What do you expect to happen.

almost everyone here has insurence

within the workforce atleast

they demand "discounts" for the people they send over. So the hospital lists the price at some random cost, charges the insurance company the real cost, then the insurance company uses the listed price to charge you, and the hospital charges the uninsured the list price

of course, if its life threatening, you don't have to pay, and a hospital cannot refuse you.

so you have a bunch of fat cats milking ppl when they are most in need. Pushing everyones insurance cost ups up.

are we talking about the government or insurance companies? oh, which the government all but forces people to use over here.
