All the souvenir tat will come in from China, hitting balance of payments
All London's serving staff, house-cleaners etc. will come in from the EE, sending their wages back home
All the securidee preparations will make travel in London a 'mare and divert more peeps to Schipol to avoid the cavity searches
All the laydees will be gossiping about it, so office/shop floor productivity will slump
The Met's bizzies will milk overtime to the nth degree, costing muggins the taxpayer a bomb
The Condems are bound to use the diversion to slip through some draconian tax rises
All in all, it'll be a net cost of ££ BILLIONS. The while thing a confounded nuisance.0 -

U.K. Support Sought for Ireland Bailout
It's a good day to bury bad news!European finance ministers working on an international aid package for Ireland want the U.K. to make bilateral loans to Dublin as part of a larger aid package that could total up to €100 billion ($135 billion) and include credit from the euro zone and International Monetary Fund, according to people familiar with the matter."The state is the great fiction by which everybody seeks to live at the expense of everybody else." -- Frederic Bastiat, 1848.0 -
Who cares?
Biggest benefit scroungers have a wedding...
More funny, is should will had been born a normal citizen he wouldn't, and couldn't, pull that crumpet his dating lol.
Hardly 'prince' charming is he. Pun intended.
Nor would he had gone to Eton (registered at birth), top uni, and go figure officer training not that he will do this job on a regular basis. All for show at taxpayers expense. Much like Euro MEP expense scandal with 300 per day for nothing. Source: Dispatches.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature.

More importantly, do we all get a day off work for this?
Do you know, that is the first thing that crossed my mind......but mine was more "Arrggghhh, will the kids get the day off school which means major stress for me!"We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.0 -
