By all accounts the NHS is a financial bottomless pit. This is before we have left the EU, nothing to do with Brexit

No if brexit is cancelled there are huge savings.

The future financial need of the NHS, increase in general taxation by 3p by 2030, can certainly be met by scrapping brexit.

If the EU happened to capitulate under the ever-increasing weight of it's debt, would you still wish to be a part of it?

I don't agree with huge debt but the UK is surely one of the worst offenders.

That's the way the world is, hope it doesn't all backfire.

One for you Tux as you seem up on this stuff.

Financial Times is reporting that the markets in Italy and Spain are in a bit of turmoil investors are dumping bonds. (sorry no link) Sounds like its concerns over politics and the economy.

I hope this is a temporary blip because it doesn't help anyone if Italy or Spain do a Greece, we all suffer in some way.

Better late than never

Due to the problems(?) there Moody's have threatened Italy with a downgrade.
The S&P's review of Deutsche Bank is expected any day now which should (99.9%) be a definite downgrade. This is not good news but no doubt Draghi & Co will do their best to salvage the situation (with other people's money).....zzzzzzzzz.
And no, this is far from ''a blip'' imo, it's an economic cancer slowly eating it's way through an artificial/fake/phoney/ponzi system.

Buckle up.

What if the £300m a week actually went to the NHS. Would you be happy?

That's a lie, the guy you came up with the slogan has even admitted it.

A more realistic figure is the £40,000,000,000 Buffon and JRM have cost us just to merely leave the EU

Still not convinced that clean Brexit break will happen. The Cabinet is clearly torn in half regarding where to go....much like the rest of Parliament. I wonder how many Brexiteers voted for a minimum £40+bn EU divorce bill?

Finally, I feel that this is much more about Bojo and Michael Gove's political aspirations than it is about truly serving 'the will of the people'. Bojo would love to be sacked so that he could establish leadership campaign against Theresa - he'd love to be imagined as the firefighter coming in to deal with the Brexit blaze...when all along he has been the arsonist.

The Electoral Commission has been given funds for next year's European elections even though we will have left by then. They say this is a contingency and they do not expect to spend the money.

It's a pity that David Cameron didn't have the same foresight and made contingency plans in the unlikely event that the UK voted to leave. Much could have been accomplished if the civil servants had started their planning before the referendum.

When I worked at Barclays we created contingency plans for the UK joining the euro, Greece leaving the euro various other countries joining the EU or the euro. It was just commonsense.

I don't think there is anything sinister in this although the papers are trying to spin it that way. There again JRM buying property in London means he is launching a campaign to oust the PM! I think the silly season has arrived early.

Difficult at the moment to seperate the wheat from the chaff when it comes to Brexit. The EU have form for saying one thing behind closed doors and then spinning it in completely the opposite way to the press.

The EU want to keep us in the fold for a variety of reasons and helping fuel chaos is one way of them achieving it.

June is a key month here and I suspect that by the end of it, we may have at least a semblence of a clearer picture but my gut instinct is that it boils down to money.

And Italy. That is the real challenge for the EU at the moment.
