Fuck off barclay card phaggot mp

2019-09-19 18:48:49 UTC

we also hold the record for the shortest war ever

2019-09-19 18:50:36 UTC

Anglo-Zanzibar War, which lasted all of 38 minutes.

2019-09-19 19:00:25 UTC

500 killed or wounded zanzibaris including civilians in 38 minutes

2019-09-19 19:00:28 UTC

what

2019-09-19 19:06:01 UTC

yeah, we supported one guy to be ruler. Then in a coup another guy very rudely raided the palace and declared himself ruler, so we politely asked him to stand down and get out of the palace, when he did not we destroyed everything and they instantly surrendered.

2019-09-19 19:11:46 UTC

but yeah, we only had one guy wounded, and I believe that was due to an accident on our behalf, something fairly remedial like he fell over.

demography of uk look that up

2019-09-19 19:54:56 UTC

it aint good

2019-09-19 19:55:08 UTC

average birth rate in uk is 1.7

2019-09-19 19:55:33 UTC

TPI average if I remember correctly

2019-09-19 19:56:10 UTC

there is CBD average but thats 12. something, thats per 1000 people

2019-09-19 19:57:36 UTC

What are TPI and CBD

2019-09-19 19:59:48 UTC

sorry its TFR and CBR

2019-09-19 20:00:01 UTC

so its total fertility rate

2019-09-19 20:00:21 UTC

and crude birth rate

2019-09-19 20:00:58 UTC

again sorry the cbr is 11.0 as of 2018 not 12. something

2019-09-19 20:01:57 UTC

It's too low to sustain itself right?

2019-09-19 20:02:02 UTC

yes

2019-09-19 20:02:27 UTC

what does the ABR need to be to sustain itself

2019-09-19 20:03:29 UTC

ABR

2019-09-19 20:03:50 UTC

average birth rate

2019-09-19 20:03:58 UTC

thats CBR lac

2019-09-19 20:04:01 UTC

lad

2019-09-19 20:04:18 UTC

not ABR same thing worded differently

2019-09-19 20:08:17 UTC

CBR is 11.0 per 1000 people

2019-09-19 20:08:31 UTC

the TFR is 1.7

2019-09-19 20:08:51 UTC

so each couple in uk has on average 1.7 kids

2019-09-19 20:09:44 UTC

Ah I see

2019-09-19 20:10:12 UTC

however its skewed as the native white is lower than that and non-white is higher

2019-09-19 20:10:25 UTC

eg 3+2 = 5

2019-09-19 20:10:37 UTC

5/2 = 2.5 average

2019-09-19 20:10:51 UTC

but one has 3 kids the other 2

2019-09-19 20:10:56 UTC

which is higher?

2019-09-19 20:11:02 UTC

<:thinkcide:462282415549841409>

2019-09-19 20:14:18 UTC

replacement rate is 2.1 right?

2019-09-19 20:14:22 UTC

yes

2019-09-19 20:17:04 UTC

that's the answer i was looking for lol

2019-09-19 20:17:12 UTC

ohh ahahah

2019-09-19 20:17:16 UTC

2019-09-19 20:17:31 UTC

2019-09-19 20:19:41 UTC

lovely video by a lovely lass

2019-09-19 21:04:52 UTC

UK will be fine... theres already 415ppl per/sq km in England ... thats 3 times that of china

2019-09-19 21:05:13 UTC

China has 140 ppl per sq km

2019-09-19 21:05:25 UTC

and the US has 33

2019-09-19 21:05:29 UTC

canada has 3

2019-09-19 21:06:05 UTC

3...? Jesus

2019-09-19 21:06:09 UTC

Do scotland!

2019-09-19 21:06:33 UTC

density not prob but okay ๐Ÿ™‚

2019-09-19 21:07:33 UTC

poor Scotland

2019-09-19 21:07:41 UTC

Scotland is too many whatever it is

2019-09-19 21:07:57 UTC

nooooo the union

2019-09-19 21:08:11 UTC

join the voice cht

2019-09-19 21:08:29 UTC

is that agregate?

2019-09-19 21:12:46 UTC

scotland has 69ppl per sq km

2019-09-19 21:13:15 UTC

so because of scotland the UK average drops to 266ppl per sq km

2019-09-19 21:13:27 UTC

which is why I use england... because its 415

2019-09-19 21:14:38 UTC

i meant for the polling data

2019-09-19 21:14:50 UTC

but thats nice to know as well mate

2019-09-19 21:16:45 UTC

ah maaan the euro has crashed AGAIN.... I will never be able to short it ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

2019-09-19 21:42:23 UTC
2019-09-19 21:49:21 UTC

yup, england is overpopulated

2019-09-19 21:49:29 UTC

end mass immigration!

2019-09-19 21:49:56 UTC

nah, just do more to stop illegal immigration

2019-09-19 21:50:16 UTC

not enough, stop all mass immigration

2019-09-19 21:50:21 UTC

the population must stabilise and reduce

2019-09-19 21:50:25 UTC

and a points system should stem the legal immigration

2019-09-19 21:50:47 UTC

you dont really want a reduced population...

2019-09-19 21:50:57 UTC

yes you do, population density is too high

2019-09-19 21:51:03 UTC

at best you want a stable one

2019-09-19 21:51:20 UTC

stable will do for now

2019-09-19 21:51:35 UTC

high population density is not a bad thing if its stable

2019-09-19 21:52:13 UTC

and the quality of people is "diverse" ... and by diverse Im not talking about race... as thats irrelevant

2019-09-19 21:52:22 UTC

or gender

2019-09-19 21:53:00 UTC

high population density breeds violence, crime, poverty, and authoritarianism. it also bleeds out to the countryside inflating prices and destroying habitat and culture

2019-09-19 21:53:53 UTC

inflating prices is fine as long as wages go with it.. it means each generations property gets easier to pay off

2019-09-19 21:54:02 UTC

it won't inflate wages with it

2019-09-19 21:54:09 UTC

and hasn't

2019-09-19 21:54:19 UTC

it has tbf ๐Ÿ˜›

2019-09-19 21:54:24 UTC

it hasn't

2019-09-19 21:54:55 UTC

wages have massively outpaced inflation over the past few years... and thats with net immigration in the hundreds of thousands

2019-09-19 21:55:11 UTC

plots have got smaller and more expensive - a property my parents generation afforded on 1 modest wage would take 2 wages well above median wage to afford now

2019-09-19 21:55:23 UTC

it's not even remotely close

2019-09-19 21:55:49 UTC

thats more to do with interest rates than population or anything like that...

2019-09-19 21:55:52 UTC

nope

2019-09-19 21:56:05 UTC

it's both

2019-09-19 21:56:19 UTC

they would still have to pay thousands a month for the same size home today on a much smaller loan

2019-09-19 21:56:35 UTC

demand >> supply

2019-09-19 21:57:12 UTC

which is why its great that inflation kicked in.. rates went down.. and now its easier to pay off the relatively small loan

2019-09-19 21:57:15 UTC

if the interest rates were much higher then prices would be lower, but they would be equivalently unaffordable to the way they are now

2019-09-19 21:57:36 UTC

Also, interest rates are not going to go up now

2019-09-19 21:57:44 UTC

or anytime in the short or medium term future

2019-09-19 21:57:59 UTC

they will crawl up

2019-09-19 21:58:12 UTC

but it depends a bit on the next Carney

2019-09-19 21:58:15 UTC

Nah, the entire system has been debased, they won't go up

2019-09-19 21:58:39 UTC

we might get a hawkish BoE leader who puts them up a point a year

2019-09-19 21:59:06 UTC

theyre supposed to go up a quarter point before this december

2019-09-19 21:59:31 UTC

they do that, they'll crush the housing market and make people homeless, so nah

2019-09-19 22:00:16 UTC

not necessarily

2019-09-19 22:00:18 UTC

They can't do anything except raise it extremely slowly without crippling people

2019-09-19 22:00:27 UTC

for example....

2019-09-19 22:00:54 UTC

And even small increments in interest rates will suck so much spending power out of the system it'll stall growth

2019-09-19 22:01:17 UTC

when I got my 5yr fixed - the base rate was at 0.5% and my rate was 1.79% ... that same mortgage is now at 1.59% and the base rate is 0.75%

2019-09-19 22:02:00 UTC

How much of that is because government bonds are going negative in large chunks of the western world?

2019-09-19 22:02:18 UTC

I.E. it's not a sign of a healthy economy

2019-09-19 22:02:28 UTC

banks are still competing for customers too.. so up-ing the base rate wont necessarily crush people

2019-09-19 22:02:47 UTC

Putting it up 1% will

2019-09-19 22:03:00 UTC

Putting it up 5% definitely will

2019-09-19 22:03:30 UTC

I mean if they put it up another quarter point and at the end of my term the mortgages are still at 1.79% then it makes no difference to me

2019-09-19 22:04:00 UTC

and theyre not going to put it back to 5% for a long while... it will be a crawl back... unless there is a massive boom

2019-09-19 22:04:38 UTC

There'll be shit tons of people not on a fixed rate for whom a 1% hike would cost them a fortune

2019-09-19 22:04:53 UTC

Either way, it doesn't resolve the need to prevent population levels rising in England

2019-09-19 22:04:56 UTC

I remember having a fair amount of savings back in 2007 and I was getting something like ยฃ100 a month just in my current account

2019-09-19 22:05:59 UTC

think it was in the region of 10k or something... which was a fair amount to save up for a younger lad

2019-09-19 22:06:09 UTC

then again Ive been working since I was 14 ๐Ÿ˜›

2019-09-19 22:07:25 UTC

The days of interest-bearing bank accounts is long gone, and won't be coming back any time soon

2019-09-20 06:52:50 UTC

2019-09-20 07:25:09 UTC

@Holincxas Know, he ignores that entirely, he speaks from a perspective of ideology and then points the finger at the apparent failings of capitalism

2019-09-20 07:25:27 UTC

If only the dumb ass had picked up a history book, he might not be such a massive Commie

2019-09-20 07:31:42 UTC

Well tbf he did fail school so we all know his educational apptitude was poor at best.

2019-09-20 07:32:06 UTC

Hah did he? That's news to me

2019-09-20 07:34:12 UTC

Not an amazing start https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Corbyn#Early_life :

> While still at school, he became active in The Wrekin constituency Young Socialists, his local Labour Party, and the League Against Cruel Sports. He joined the Labour Party at age 16 and achieved two A-Levels, at grade E, the next to lowest-possible passing grade, before leaving school at 18. Corbyn joined the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) in 1966 whilst at school and later became one of its three vice-chairs and subsequently vice-president.

2019-09-20 08:54:25 UTC

So he's a Greta <:hyperthink:462282519883284480>

2019-09-20 11:45:15 UTC

All parents who took their children out of school for this must be fined

Much on the same vein as Trump

2019-09-20 12:55:14 UTC

It's not the UK

2019-09-20 12:55:19 UTC

It's the parliament

2019-09-20 12:55:33 UTC

That is probably one of the most infuriating things
