    Our media will portray anything that doesn't admit to the real issue :
    Immigration, legal and illegal.
    Starmer and the absurd Cooper (and the previous lot) will attack the extreme right wing but, for reasons I'll never know or understand, are hell bent on ruining our culture and way of life.

    While there were just two votes in favour of a cut at the last meeting in June, three further members of the committee were close to cutting.

    The Bank also releases its quarterly forecasts for the state of the economy, which can be a good moment to explain a change of direction.

    Many banks have already started to cut fixed mortgage rates in anticipation of lower interest rates.
    The new government would welcome this boost to consumer confidence, and to their own coffers thanks to a lower cost of servicing the national debt.

    It takes about 4 seconds to announce "we have reduced the interest rate from 5.25% to 55% .then 40 mins plus to explain it!

    Well it seems all the doom and gloom merchants over the past 12 month's regarding broken this and that were a bit off track! Tories were doing very well and BOE expecting the pre July 4th TREND TO CONTINUE for next year or so

    BOE dosent give verdicts on short term like this week or last but on quarterly and / bi monthly trends based on the yearly trend / events, it also has factors built in that it applies to their decisions .. a number of charts showed the past / present and hoped for future, their projections indicated that inflation should be targeted and down to 1.5% in the next < 18 month's > whilst interest rates will be applied accordingly to help or benefit this movement should fall but not every presentation date [ bimonthly? ]

    Comments were made regarding the "chaos that Covid caused throughout the 2020 period" along with, but not mentioned by name that I heard, "the energy crisis / war" and seemingly not blamed on individuals or .gov! ... = " one off events"
    SO MAINTAIN 2% inflation for another 2 months and likely another decrease? [ again last dregs of tory rule ]

    And the Police are rubbish in lots of respects. Whether that comes from the very top or from the Home Office is unknown.
    On the one hand, treating people such as Pro Palestinian protesters who are shouting for Jihad in public with kid gloves, and arresting a young autistic woman who said one of the coppers looked like her lesbian Nan on the other.
    They need to be respected but for Christs sake get the basics and the priorities right first off !

    Get Stop & Search back on the streets and operational. Never mind the wails of racism by the group who will be targeted. Its overwhelmingly them who carry the knives and carry out the murders !

    The media. especially the likes of the BBC will usually do anything to not name the ethnicity of any attackers in terror events, but are first to report on items when they think ir's 'the far right' who might be in the frame, even though they insist on anyone speaking their mind as right wing bigots.

    They are more left leaning than the Labour party !

    But - the news is fake - it’s generated by a Russian fake news factory.
    Those people believe it because that’s what they WANT to believe and the Russian fake news gave it to them.
    Those people are utter pricks and an embarrassment.

    Because this does not mention the far right, buses and trains. The far right are causing this according to Mr Stamer. This is the work of far right extremist thugs. THEiR EVERYWHERE!

    They will have weapons of mass destruction soon.

    The fact is that calling these people far right is an easy tag to put against them

    I don’t condone the violence against the Police or the damage being done, but I think the soldier being stabbed and then the 3 little girls has pushed people over the edge
    Starmer doesn’t see it for what it is and what’s behind it
    Sunak wouldn’t have understood it, but I don’t think he would have called them far right
    These are white working class people who have had enough of 2 tier policing and 2 tier government where the minorities get all the breaks and preferential treatment

    The lad being charged with the murders in Southport comes from Cardiff, also why did they attack a mosque?. The real people of Southport were out the next day clearing up the mess and supporting the Muslims in their area.

    The young ones throwing bricks that night in Southport and the rioters in Sunderland etc are just thugs. Plain and simple, regardless of their politics they are thugs plain and simple.
