  1.  @simonmarshall3869  Not stupid I agree (they all went to good schools etc ) but irresponsible verging on the Criminal.

  2. Did you never consider the effects of unrestrained immigration on many british towns. My Glaswegian associate describes his home town as "The Curry Capital of Europe" - wrong of course, Brixton is.

  3.  @PFAlt  From the UK. You've got that right 👍🏼. This place has been systematically dismantled for the benefit of a few investors who wrap themselves in the flag & call for patriotism to protect their operating haven but have absolutely none themselves. Global Capitalism has no morality. To whit, the current trade war playing out between US and Putin's Russian Federation.

  7.  @replica1052  Aluminium in sea water gets badly pitted and needs a protective coat (powder coat is good) Aircraft parts in sea water when recovered after some years show extensive through-pitting. Galvanic corrosion is a problem where other metals are in contact. Lastly, Is aluminium exposed to sea water fully harmless to aquatic life? I for one DO agree that wind energy is a very useful renewable. All ideas need serious evaluation.

  8. Ummm. You get the feeling that it's getting near closing time at the Whitehall Casino . Brit parliament is probably hoping for a war to distract folk from inescapable structural problems. What happens when the last of the money drips into the sand ? ? What's the betting that the EU led by Germany will likely subsidise Scottish Independence. This would bring WW2 in Europe to a successful conclusion.

  9.  @WillN2Go1  Aye . You have to say this Economics team produce a lot of very interesting material. Im not sure to what extent the City of London was incorporated at the end of Saxon Harold's time. The things we dont know or mostly dont need to know until .... I'm in Northern Ireland so also have a serious eye on possible changes.

  10.  @WillN2Go1  Got it from city website. Yes William of Normandy confirmed the city could retain its privileges which had been enjoyed since time of Edward the Confessor. Thats probably a special link since Williams claim to England wasn't from the conquest (Right of Arms - good old fashioned stuff) but from some respect the Norman (not a French man my Norman friend tells me, oh no?!!) ( United Europe?)... had for the apparently saintly monarch. Those guys really Believed wholesale the religion thing. Hope you don't mind if I paste in lengthy text as I just read part of it. Very off topic so apologies to Asianomics There is no surviving record of a charter first establishing the Corporation as a legal body, but the City is regarded as incorporated by prescription, meaning that the law presumes it to have been incorporated because it has for so long been regarded as such (e.g. Magna Carta states that "the City of London shall have/enjoy its ancient liberties").[8] The City of London Corporation has been granted various special privileges since the Norman Conquest,[9][10] and the Corporation's first recorded royal charter dates from around 1067, when William the Conqueror granted the citizens of London a charter confirming the rights and privileges that they had enjoyed since the time of Edward the Confessor. Numerous subsequent royal charters over the centuries confirmed and extended the citizens' rights.[11] Around 1189, the City gained the right to have its own mayor, later being advanced to the degree and style of Lord Mayor of London. Over time, the Court of Aldermen sought increasing help from the City's commoners and this was eventually recognised with commoners being represented by the Court of Common Council, known by that name since at least as far back as 1376. The earliest records of the business habits of the City's chamberlain and common clerks, and the proceedings of the courts of Common Council and Aldermen, begin in 1275, and are recorded in fifty volumes known as the Letter-Books of the City of London.
