Originally posted by .TUX. Pound against the euro, pound against the euro.........blah blah bloody blah.......zzzzzzzzzzz. I suggest you take the time to think about what Draghi and his policy of buying anything that friggin' moves, with DEBT (printed from thin-air), that will ultimately cost YOU plenty. Deflection is far far easier to live with though isn't it Edited by .TUX. (08 Aug 2017 6.54pm) Yep all very relevant because when investment dries up in an economy, that economy's currency will relflect that very fact. It's doing that right now as it's in free fall. It's even hurting UK manufacturers as most of their raw materials and components come from the EU and are priced in Euros. Also, on a much smaller and irrelavant scale, those Brits on vacation in the Eurozone will find they are getting much, much lower than they expect when exchanging Sterling for Euros.

I bet he is a local fisherman catching crabs or the like. Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky.

However, it's the other part that made me laugh out loud - 'maybe you should try harder to integrate'. That coming from the man whom has moved to a place where the ethnic balance is 98% white British and a massive 740ish people whom don't fit that group live. Whom is also married to a white 'Anglo scot' with a white daughter. So should I dump the African missus and the black step son, stop travelling around the World, stop living in a highly integrated area, dump some mates and stop working in a team of people drawn from many countries, and move to Devon, in order to satisfy your definition of 'integration'?

I doubt you'd refer to yourself as European before English or British so it's interesting that you refer to your wife as being African rather than Ghanaian, which in some ways denigrates the rich diversity of culture within this massive continent of contrasts.

I find it fascinating that people whom call themselves 'progressive' assume that you use references of ethnicity you make up yourself, never mind the fact that you actually use references the people in question themselves use to describe themselves. Maybe it's because these so-called 'progressives' have their heads shoved up their own backsides, from living in nice, white suburban areas, and therefore have little to no experience of ethnic minorities, their self definition, culture or how they identify with other cultures, and get their kicks from telling others how to think and act, with no reference to reality, Or, it could be because they are WUM's, trying to draw you into an argument after you have purposefully not directly interacted with them for 15 months, because everyone was sick of the arguments, and are desperate for attention. Or it could be both.

Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time.
