Nah, this is why I'm violently anti-crank. They're deeply evil and prey on the uninformed.

The document, which you now can't find, stated that "banks are inherently solvent and can only suffer temporary liquidity crisis" despite his bank have been zeroed out. The Greens crowdfunded one from an actual expert, refused to publish it and now mock my mental health for asking about it.

the SNP plan has been deleted from the Internet but was written by Andrew "Make It Happen" Wilson who was deputy chief economist to Fred The Shred, then lead integration of ABN Amro into RBS then headed up group comms a record cash call from share holders 6 months before it was nationalised

it's not easy. if it was i wouldn't be known & feared across both parties. Norway exited a currency union when money was literally gold and restamped it. Ireland did so just as Nixon collapsed Bretton Woods. Soviet states achieving independence are another case again. None are Scotland.

from a health economic perspective this is Quality of Life Years positive because the joy extra joy butter brings is on the quality side, and the years you lose you'd hate anyway. In this Fabian paper I will argue that butter, cigars, whisky and fugu will be mandatory in the social care system

are you thinking of the "moist maker", the middle slice in e.g. a big mac which absorbs the liquids so you can still hold the outside intact while you eat it?

If you want local goodwill for your megaproject, razing several km^2 of forest to the ground without permission is technically known as "not a good start".

The Scottish Parliament should be presented with a currency plan to vote on before we leave the UK as having our own currency is a key part of rejoining the EU if the SNP and Greens win

Archer’s resignation from the London mayoral race after it was revealed he lied in court was the thing that got Paul Foot up from his sickbed and contributing again, having first started chronicling Archer’s lies and misdemeanours in 1969. From the Private Eye archive. Issue 992, December 1999.

Yeah I know someone who was involved in NDP until they moved here but I'd kind of assumed they were provicionally focussed to build support for federal politics but Nope, Not That Way At All
