I think this is going to blow over in a couple of weeks.  Hold your nerve and ride it out is my opinion.  Be ready for the market rally.  

The Canadians aren't going to let it blow over. Elbows up continues to grow traction.

They have elections in October, Carney wants the top job. Quite how such a political figure was ever put into the BoE job is beyond me. That said no politics here.

Ah right, they were due in October but Carney called a snap election. I must have missed that.

Yes Carney replaced Trudeau and immediately called for an election.

Not political. Ordinary people are voting with their wallets and their feet. Some 25% of international visitors every year to Las Vegas are Canadian . Early indications are that trips to Maine and Florida are already down 25% and 20% respectively this year. This is just tourism. 

Remember the old Chinese adage. "The man who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.".

Just added up my losses since peak, down 150k, ouch! Having said that at a guess I'm probably back to where I was around 12 to 18 mths ago

I can understand having a rule to avoid "politics" so that it can be enforced by the moderators when discussions descend into petty quibbling about what might have theoretically happened had some other UK party been in power and done something differently, but this is different.  

In this case a foreign power has implemented specific political decisions, and the financial repurcussions to the world are irrefutably linked to this decision. We on this forum (as primarily UK citizens) are in no position to democratically influence the foreign current governing power or voter by our comments on this forum, but we very seriously need (and want) to discuss the severe global consequences resulting from these increasingly unpredictable decisions which are threatening to the financial security of every single investor and pension holder in the UK, or for that matter, the world.

Doing this without any mention politics, even if global, is going to be impossible.
