    Remain reality.
    Talk me through the Italian Bank crisis and potential effects?
    Talk me through the tsunami of over production from China about to crash into the EUs shores which will devastate deflationary Southern Europe


    Other EU nations will be forced to have referendums, years of uncertainty in the EU


    Talk me through the fact the IMF have been urging Sterling devaluation for some time due to global devaluation and currency wars. Brexit has been prefect for our essential devaluation

    Large hoteliers are reporting significant uptick in bookings to the UK

    India trade talks under way already

    China wants talks

    Others want trade talks already, and the FACTS tell us trade deals can and are done quickly

    EU is appalling at trade deals, none with India, Chine complained yesterday the EU is dreadful to deal with

    Damn those FACTS

    Hopefully this message will get through that senile, Germanophobic skull of yours.

    A fact is not something that you like. It is something that is irrefutable.

    Amazon have a terrible reputation for the way they treat their workers. I've seen lots of stories about the drivers who deliver the goods having to work long long hours to complete their daily run and they're responsible for much of the costs incurred. Equally the staff at their depots have targets to hit which can only be met if they're running around all day.

    Mostly their operations are contracted out and therefore employees wont work for Amazon directly but for the 3rd party suppler, warehousing and transport operations.
