Remember when the country slated Gordon Brown and John Major. Oh to have strong, centre politicians like that around today.

The problem appears to be Russian meddling too. It suits Russia to destabilise others and they seem to be doing a grand job of that without any fear of recourse.

Anyway, back on topic, I always borrow to buy high value cars! :)
Totally agree Atholl, Boris is a complete nob, May is the awkward one at the party, Corbyn is a communist. Where's the centre ground gone?

The russians despite their woeful GRU are laughing at the West having got Trump in the white house, various Neo-Nazis around Europoe to continue the breaking up of the Europe Union, hacking the OPCW and any other investigations that point towards them.

Putin is a master chess player playing the long game.

Who gets in will depend on who spends to the most on the election. Massive overspend in the last few days to influence the vote. Minor slap on the wrists afterwards, maybe a fine, but no police investigation because it would be "politically sensitive" and the winner wouldn't setup a commission to investigate their win. So, pretty much whoever Putin wants in will get in next time. Democracy relies on scrutiny and an informed public. We don't have either any more.

I finance high value cars too. Cheap ones I buy outright.

Macro and micro Economics, national and global politics, where else can we take thread drift?......

Any views on the #MeToo movement, racism, religion and gender?

Gender's an interesting one. Female hyenas have 3x as much testosterone as male hyenas, are bigger, stronger and have - wait for it - a penis. Determining a hyena's sex is, therefore, extremely difficult. They mate and give birth through their penis. Both these practices are also difficult.

Do female hyenas claim to associate more with being a male? **** they do. They just get the **** on with being hyenas and easting any bloody thing they like. Go, hyenas!
