like the brits cared about other countrys that are using the euro, what a bunch of fakes, why don you say once in your stupid lçifes what you really want, uk is just as fucked as other debtor countrys
why is it that the uk with no groth a debt of almost 100 gdp was their rating as aaa and other countrys with same situation are classified as junk for being inside the euro isnt this a attack of the pound dollar mafia because they are in fact finished, by the way uks groth was because of oil and thats finish
That shows how idiot you are. Gyros...that is what we eat...Gyros...kebab is for turks and muslims...plus...this "crisis" was fake just to get their hands in our country, to test how things will be in the rest of europe and world and it is just a way to push NWO
No, he wasn't recommending that. He supports the decentralization of power. He mentioned the "super state" to make a point about how all these economic problems can only be "solved" through draconian measures in the restructuring of national sovereignties within the Eurozone, which is no solution at all. In other words, the Euro is to blame because the interests of separate nations requires them to follow different monetary policies; and the Euro imposes a one-size-fits-all straight jacket.
Sorry for all of you greeks! You should never have joined the bl00dy EU!!! I cannot believe the EU supports freezing the annuity of all Old People! Whats going on eyy.... ;-( wtf
We've asked about how cooked are the books in Greece and we're finding out that Goldman Sachs is thick as thieves in the Greece's debt crisis. I'm in the US and I can tell you that the Federal Reserve refuses to acknowledge the liabilities on their books. As countries and central banks begin to collapse, expect to see a greater attempt at secrecy.
He doesn't know, it's hard enough staying on top of any particular subject. As a UK PM he knows about issues in his country and issues regarding the European Union. I doubt he's influential enough to know anything about Greece's liabilities. If someone like him would know, then it'd be all over the internet.
I had to watch the video a 2nd time to answer you. He didn't say that he know where the Greek Liabilities are. The presenter said that it's hard to know where the Greeks liabilities are and he said "Sure" Which means that Daniel agreed that it's hard to know where Greek liabilities are. Personally, I think Greece has the same liabilities as US states, too many promises to pension funds, public unions, public schools that they cannot afford in a depression. Goldman Sachs isn't helping either
-A lot of Greek sovereign debt is owed to city inst."
-Do you know that for sure?
That question is not answered by Hannan. Did he know for sure or did he not? I get the impression he did not.
For me this is not an issue on whether or not it is correct - I am concerned whether or not he avoided answering and whether he was not honest. I support Hannan because i appreciate him as honest.. if he is not, but rather using the American "passive lying"... then?
@mradder2 I learned a new phrase today that I really like
"One should always keep an open mind, but not so open that one's brain falls out."
I think in this case, one can become so disenchanted by government that one ends up having no ability to trust anyone in government. People are still individuals and no matter how corrupt the institution, they cannot always weed out the good & keep just the bad. Daniel is a very good teacher even if he's a powerless politician, I like him for that.
He says he knows its hard to tell where the liabilities are. I hope English is your 2nd language. If not, maybe you should start watchign reruns of My Little Pony and leave political discourse to your betters.
@Closetscholar So you are actually saying that he claimed to know something he didnt know and admitted to having said something he didnt know?
I would love to watch My Little Pony with you... we can even play My Little Pony in the shower if you would like; like the big boys did with you in middle school.
I think it's terrible how that dude in the studio was allowed to make his false little remark without giving Hannan a chance to respond, I'm glad he did at least try to highlight this even though he was hurried on by the presenter!
German Taxpayers deserve better then to help out the Stupid Children who can't manage their Checkbooks. WORD TO: Greece, the people, the government, the unions, GROW UP, MAN UP AND GET YOUR HOUSE IN ORDER. You are Adults, Man up! make some tough choices, Start cutting.
Totally, we are being told by the lame stream that we have to make sacrifices, countries like Iceland and Greece have to make sacrifices, yet the banksters still get their bonuses that they wouldn't have got if we didn't borrow fiat money from central banks at a debt to us.
Whenever I hear the term "lose their jobs" I replace it with "find alternative employment." A job is not something that is lost, it is something that is completed. If I complete my job, I move on to providing value to another person, thus creating another job to complete.
If an MEP maintains anything of value to give (who doesn't?) that MEP will always be able to find employment.
Jobs are not created by the consumption of value, jobs are created (and completed) through the creation of value.
Better off out. Stay out of the Euro and get out of the European Union. The EU and the UK government and done a fantastic job at destroying my country. If only everyone could wake up to smell the tyranny and we could get out of this mess and start to put our country back together.
@UnknownOconnor Just look what it is doing to the countries using it. That should answer your question. Also a country should control the destiny of its own soveriegnty. It should not be done by people in dark suits who have nothing to do with the country or its best interests. This collectivism has always been shown not to work throughout history and it will be the same today. I hope not too many people are harmed while this whole thing collapses. Unfortunately they will.
@peterpaulparker It won't collapse, and investors are actually stunned at the Euro's resilance. That's simply not going to be allowed happen. Look at countries not using the Euro (Iceland) - they collapsed in 2008. Funnily enough they now want to join the Euro...... Why - it is a strong currency that weathers financial storms. Of course there are also disadvantages of using the currency. For example, the Greece bailout will cost me EUR 280. Greece should never have been allowed join.
@peterpaulparker we cant get out of it when brown signed the lisbon treaty he timed it right so the time lapsed we are royaly fucked the only way to gain power is for riots now we have been given no other choice
Bullcrap... The devaluation might not help Britain much... (Mostly because their PM is really bad...) but it did save Poland. Having our own currency is one of the main reasons our country is in a better shape then most of the EU.
Don't let your governments get you into this mess called Euro. Don't let them force you to oin EU either...
LOL Better than most of the EU? What does that tell you Dhimmi! That is about like saying that you and the French have been castrated but you are not so sure that you are fond of being a EUnuch!
Well considering your are a wet Brit that was probably the result of a Paki Tourist when your mother was pass out on the curb coming home to pour you some Ale over your wheatabix -- I will take your compliment in context !
btw there is a reason the Paki's now make your Jaguar and it starts better than when the best and the Brightest in Britain ran the show!
Pakis are the poster children you inbred Brits spawned along with your other Colonial Messes Globally -- Do you need a list ? I use then to show what useless bags of shit you Brits are as Allies right up there with the French ! You act like you are doing the USA a favor by showing up when in reality they are your BASTARD off spring!
I suppose the biggest colonial mess of ours was the US then. It took you long enough to get stuck into World War Two and only after you'd nicked a load of island bases of ours in return for some WWI era destroyers.
Of course I'm safe in the knowledge that most Americans are intelligent, decent folk and not spasticated fuckwits like yourself.
I did not know we were your baby sitters in Late 39: But we did give you welfare of about 1 trillion Dollars in the lend lease program so you should have been able to buy some nappies with that !
You mean you know stupid American that dont know your real history and How useless you were to the Poles and how you tucked tail in Dunkirk ? If you really want to know the extent of the lend lease ? So tuck your swagger back to a swish BRIT and give my dogs balls a lisp and a lick !
We went to over them. It's not our fault they were on the other side of Europe and we couldn't get to them.
As for Dunkirk, damn, considering the onslaught of the Nazi war machine Dunkirk was an epic success since we got so many troops out to safety TO FIGHT ANOTHER DAY.
Then if you could not and would not do SQUAT why did you sign the treaty ? YOU know about like you MAN up in NATO!
LOL you Pansy ass Brits and the French got your asses made in to ass hats in less than what 90 days or less ? LMAO The reason the German War Machine Kicked your ass so fast is that your Lord Chamberlain Was sucking Hitlers cock ! And Sucking French DICK!
Neville Chamberlains appeasement policy actually bought a precious few more months with which Britain could carry on rearming. So "sucking Hitlers dick" paid off when we had enough fighter planes to beat the Luftwaffe off as a result of that few extra months.
I suppose the US will never understand the British sacrifice as the never had whole cities levelled.
Mr Chamberlain never became a Lords by the way. I dunno whhere you got that idea from.
Actually as an American we are pretty bright. It's just that the knowledge that we take pride in is about movies, music, TV, sports, shopping and other such nonsense.
We need another stock market crash, which is coming to wake even more of them up. I'm finding that a lot of them want to live in their little state of delusion, but a recent poll shows that 56% of them see our government as "a danger to our safety and liberty". I have hope that a few more B*tch slaps & Americans will wake up.
A total of $50.1 billion (equivalent to $759 billion at 2008 prices) worth of supplies were shipped: $31.4 billion to Britain, $11.3 billion to the Soviet Union, $3.2 billion to France and $1.6 billion to China. Reverse Lend Lease comprised services (like rent on air bases) that went to the U.S. totaled $7.8 billion, of which $6.8 billion came from the British and the Commonwealth.
NOT EXACTLY JUST A COUPLE WW1 DESTROYERS NOW is it PUNK!
We rebuilt them so they would not kick your ass over and over again!
yes I know about Suez: You Brits went back into Business shitting all over the world like a poodle in a French Dog and Pony Show and got BITCH SLAPPED by Ike! Looks like you have another one coming soon:)
Sweet what an opportunity :) Are you spineless Brits going to go to war for Oil AGAIN! LOL Not exactly in your back yard now is it ? LOL How about the USA and the French Sell them some Missile Technology and some planes to even the playing field some :) YOU KNOW LIKE YOUR BULL SHIT GAMES WITH THE USA AND THE USSR :) Jet Engines and all for MIGs in Korea ?
We're not going to go to war for oil at all again.
Why would go to war over drilling in our own land? In that sense it is in our backyard. It's our land and the people there see it the same way. Sucks for Argentina I guess.
And Argentina isn't going to go to war either. You really misunderstand the Argentinians. Most of them don't care about the islands, just their president and she isn't stupid enough to start a war which will just end in misery for her nation.
WOW where have I heard that from a Brit before? Tell me was Egypt your land too ? Somalia ? Iran ? Iraq ? Saudi Arabia ? Burma? HEY Once upon a Time YOU Brits even were silly enough to think the USA was your land and where did that get you? So think of the Falklands and Just the same ole same ole that everyone around the globe has kicked your ass and why not the Argentinians ? Why not ? Everyone else has ! Like a queen at a gay pride parade every one has fucked him up the ass!
The US was our land before you had that little revolution. It was still our land until we signed the treaty recognising the USA as a state.
The Falklands are British, the people there want to remain British and the UN (I know you dont' listen much to them) have said the islanders rights come first.
And Argentina didn't kick our ass. We kicked theirs. Just like when you tried to invade Canada and we cast you back out.
Yes I know all about the War of 1812 and how you Brits thought you were going to show us waz up after feeling froggy kicking Napoleon's ass and then you played with Andrew Jackson in New Orleans and got a reminder ! BTW you never did impress anymore Americans on the High Seas now did you!
As far as Argentina, perhaps it would be a great opportunity to pay your sad British asses for Basra ? And help with some weapons and training to secure THE BALANCE OF POWER DOCTRINE !
You're going to help Argentina start a war over Basra? You do know Argentina is friends with people who don't like you either?
Luckily the US government isn't run by idiots such as yourself so I'm not really worried. Especially while you have US bases on UK soil. Why lose them over helping Argentina?
Well you know that Doctrine of Balance of Power you Brits wanted to Play between the USSR and the USA:) In fact you have been pissing on our backs for a very long time with your French Cousins :) Why do we need any US Bases in the UK ? The serve no purpose other than to protect your sad ass ! And why would we want to waste any American Blood or Money on that deal? Besides it would be fun and sporting after all your American Bashing :) I am thinking pure delight!
You mean like when you start a war and expect the USA to come clean up your mess and we dump your paper and Crash your economy:) Sonny boy I call that a learning opportunity :) DID YOU TAKE NOTES LAD?
Ike said afterwards it was the biggest mistake he ever made. He ate his humble pie. You will too eventually. Most Americans are decent folk. It's just the braindead nobrashes like yourself who show them up.
Hey Brit let me put your UK in perspective: If you add up ALL of the stocks you trade on your FTSE, the total value is about that of what we call our OTC Over the Counter Exchange -- also known as the Penney Exchange ! THAT IS HOW RELEVANT YOU ARE AS A NATION AND AS A PEOPLE !
The terms of the agreement provided that the material was to be used until time for their return or destruction. (Supplies after the termination date were sold to Britain at a discount, for £1.075 billion, using long-term loans from the U.S.)
The Americans demanded that this rent be settled, and it took until 2006 for the UK government to settle its debt to the USA
I'm not a punk (punk is soooo 1970's) and I'm not inbred either, I'll leave that to the Royal Family.
Maybe Churchill should have just decided to not pay the rent back. Germany and Japan never did. Why should we?
Maybe if America hadn't forced us to break our alliance with the Japanese in the 1920's and embargo supplies to Japana they wouldn't have decided to attack either of us.
I think the USA should Charge you Brits double to be in NATO seems we have to train your men: Because it was your WAR Bitch! You begged for help ! LOL The USA did not force the Brits to break Alliances with the Japanese THE Japanese KICKED you out ! ---- And perhaps if the Brits would not be allowed to operate anything past a pop gun or a sailing vessel -- let alone redraw national borders there would be no Pakistan Problem:)
Better yet we should have let the Germans kick your ass
You don't train any of our men as far as I'm aware. Making stuff up won't win the argument.
As far as your last line, well the Germans did such a good job in the Battle of Britain and in North Africa.
Oh sorry, I forgot that we beat them.
Although as far as I'm aware if Pakistan hadn't been created you'd have just had the Pakistan problem but inside India. At least now you have one target for attack instead.
Remind who lost to a bunch of AK-47 equipped farmers in Vietnam again?
Yes we do : As it seem they suffer the same condition the Brits have a terminal Problem with -- SHITTING ALL OVER THEMSELVES --
NATO Not Ready For Prime Time
August 23, 2008: One reason many European nations are reluctant to let their troops engage the enemy in Iraq, or Afghanistan, is that they fear the outcome will not be up to the task.
Yes Vietnam French Colony that when the USA goes to help > French tuck Tail = A tactic they no doubt learned from the British -- Like Basra !
Because we have seen how Fucked up you and the French do it! So we are there to rub your faces in the dirt as need be ! -- Sweet wasn't it :) A few Stinger Missiles and POOF YOU FUCK THE USSR UP THE ASS LIKE MUHAMMED DID HIS DONKEY :) ! Pay back is a real Bitch isnt it Brit! ? Funny think about you Brits :) NO ONE and I mean no one in the world wants you back ! Can you name any colony that has ever invited you back? YOU FUCKS even trained Idi Amin in Uganda !
Name one? And tell me who they replaced :) HEY you mean like Uganda and your Idi Amin ? How about Zimbabwe :) HEY that Mugabe you put in to power :) What a charm School Grad he was :) Oxford ?
Pinochet was helped by the CIA. Let's not forget that the Contra affair either. Those Sandinisatas were nasty people.
Mugabe wasn't put in power by us. We helped draw up the agreement that brought an end to the bush (as in jungle not the Texan) war. This led to an election which Mugabe won fair and square (unlike now). I'm so sorry we tried to bring an end to a bloody civil war in Africa. Maybe we should have just carpet bombed them instead?
LOL Mugabe won fair and square ?:) WOW you call burning the opposition alive and cutting their arms off with Machetes a real get out the vote campaign do ya ?
Well your bets efforts BRIT and par for the Course for you -- was that your best is just pure shit ! Having you on the international stage is like letting a baby play with razor blades ! The world would be so much better off if the UK was reduced to the level of play more akin to Portugal
To be honest, I couldn't really care what he did because it's not our problem anymore. We told Ian Smith to end the white minority rule. He chose not to, he paid the price for it.
I reckon you're just one of these Lyndon Larouche fanboys. Your profile does give that impression.
Not a fan of Larouche at all but even a broken clock like Larouche was correct 2 x a day :) 1. Your Royal Family was the Biggest SMAK and Opium Drug Peddlers of the world ! I trust you have heard of the Opium Wars and " China is asleep for the next 100 years?
To be honest I could give a shit about the UK as long as it does not cost the USA a dime or one drop of American Blood: As far as the British go -- you can bleed a river for all I care!
Yep, another example of why Britain was great. We could kick the shit out of anyone. I'm so glad our American CHILDREN (that's what you are) have taken to the same thing so well........Well maybe not. You never transformed the world the way we did.
We've bled oceans and yet we still triumphed. The little nation that could. We beat Communists in the jungle in Malaya. Yet you failed in Vietnam. Oh for shame. All that money and you couldn't win against the Viet Cong?
No actually you could not kick the shit out of anyone: We kicked your ass 2x in less than 50 years and if you had come back for more we would have kicked it again: It is a good thing we have not transformed the world the way you did ! But if it had not been for the USA you would be speaking German or Russian or both and you would have earned that purgatory for a very long time:) Like the Greeks getting fucked up the ass by the Turks for 500yrs You Left Malaya in a Mess as well
Tell that to the Kaiser, Napoleon, the Zulu's, the Indians, the Constable of France, the Irish, the Argentinians, the US when it tried to take Canada, the Japanese who tried to invade India etc etc etc.
Malaya is a much better place than Vietnam. Maybe if you'd managed to follow our example you would have beaten the Viet Cong. Oh well.
LOL, WOW Zulu's Spear Chukers and Shaka had you pissing your pants ! And you had your asses kicked by:
Burma, Sudan, Egypt, Somalia, Angola, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Thailand, Afghanistan, Malay, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Yemen, -- So you beat the Argentinians one time -- I think they deserve a rematch and some coaching :) OH WELL
We've never been in Saudi Arabia. In fact we've always been their ally. Same for Israel who helped us during Suez. South Africa and Zimbabwe were colonies so they didn't kick our ass at all. Egypt was battered during Suez. The only thing that saved them was you and the USSR licking each others asses at the UN. otherwise Nassar would have been hanging like a common crook. India? We conquered it. Don't know how that means we got our ass kicked. More like the other way round.
Oh but you Silly boy YOU were:) You Brits gave it to the Saudi's for their help in WW1 LAD dont you remember Lawrence of Arabia :) AHH You Brits are such honest folk :) King Faisal ? Now I dont want you to run off and pout if a little Karma comes your way !
Yes you were then as Usual Invited out and you tucked tail and got out -- As in Ghandi and I might say you did evacuate very quickly too !
So you kicked Egypts ass Only too the Jews 6 days and they had company!
LOL is that all you have is Vietnam? That was just 1 compared to you Globally ! I cannot think of any place in the globe you have not been fucked up the ass in! LMAO the only reason you are still under the same flag is because of American Stupidity and pity ! Or at best you served our interests -- And those days are running out !
LOL You point to Vietnam as if that one issue is the end all to compare your sad ass dismal failure globally to that FORMER FRENCH COLONY?
Yes you sure kicked Hitlers ass ! Dunkirk I guess that is the British method of fighting in a different Direction ? -- Well so you Beat the Frenchie that was all tuckered out from kicking the ass of Europe the second time ! Ohhhh LA LA and then you take those troop and get your ass Kicked badly in New Orleans ?
Yes as a matter of fact I have: I guess you did that as well with those sad WW1 Battle ships that the USA sent you as a part of their WELFARE Charity package we sent you beggars!
In 1954 Amin was made effendi (warrant officer), the highest rank possible for a Black African in the colonial British Army of that time. Amin returned to Uganda the same year and in 1961 he was promoted to lieutenant, becoming one of the first two Ugandans to become commissioned officers. He was then assigned to quell the cattle rustling between Uganda's Karamojong and Kenya's Turkana nomads. In 1962 he was promoted to captain and then, in 1963, to major.
Like he said we needf a european superstate with english as the main language.

Of course there are also disadvantages of using the currency. For example, the Greece bailout will cost me EUR 280. Greece should never have been allowed join.

Bullcrap... The devaluation might not help Britain much... (Mostly because their PM is really bad...) but it did save Poland. Having our own currency is one of the main reasons our country is in a better shape then most of the EU.
Don't let your governments get you into this mess called Euro. Don't let them force you to oin EU either...

I suppose the biggest colonial mess of ours was the US then. It took you long enough to get stuck into World War Two and only after you'd nicked a load of island bases of ours in return for some WWI era destroyers.

We went to over them. It's not our fault they were on the other side of Europe and we couldn't get to them.

starcatcher7777 2 years ago
Neville Chamberlains appeasement policy actually bought a precious few more months with which Britain could carry on rearming. So "sucking Hitlers dick" paid off when we had enough fighter planes to beat the Luftwaffe off as a result of that few extra months.
I suppose the US will never understand the British sacrifice as the never had whole cities levelled.
Mr Chamberlain never became a Lords by the way. I dunno whhere you got that idea from.

Actually as an American we are pretty bright. It's just that the knowledge that we take pride in is about movies, music, TV, sports, shopping and other such nonsense.
We need another stock market crash, which is coming to wake even more of them up. I'm finding that a lot of them want to live in their little state of delusion, but a recent poll shows that 56% of them see our government as "a danger to our safety and liberty". I have hope that a few more B*tch slaps & Americans will wake up.

A total of $50.1 billion (equivalent to $759 billion at 2008 prices) worth of supplies were shipped: $31.4 billion to Britain, $11.3 billion to the Soviet Union, $3.2 billion to France and $1.6 billion to China. Reverse Lend Lease comprised services (like rent on air bases) that went to the U.S. totaled $7.8 billion, of which $6.8 billion came from the British and the Commonwealth.

Why would go to war over drilling in our own land? In that sense it is in our backyard. It's our land and the people there see it the same way. Sucks for Argentina I guess.
And Argentina isn't going to go to war either. You really misunderstand the Argentinians. Most of them don't care about the islands, just their president and she isn't stupid enough to start a war which will just end in misery for her nation.

The US was our land before you had that little revolution. It was still our land until we signed the treaty recognising the USA as a state.
The Falklands are British, the people there want to remain British and the UN (I know you dont' listen much to them) have said the islanders rights come first.
And Argentina didn't kick our ass. We kicked theirs. Just like when you tried to invade Canada and we cast you back out.

Are you paying attention you inbred PUNK Brit ?
The terms of the agreement provided that the material was to be used until time for their return or destruction. (Supplies after the termination date were sold to Britain at a discount, for £1.075 billion, using long-term loans from the U.S.)
The Americans demanded that this rent be settled, and it took until 2006 for the UK government to settle its debt to the USA
starcatcher7777 2 years ago
I'm not a punk (punk is soooo 1970's) and I'm not inbred either, I'll leave that to the Royal Family.
Maybe Churchill should have just decided to not pay the rent back. Germany and Japan never did. Why should we?
Maybe if America hadn't forced us to break our alliance with the Japanese in the 1920's and embargo supplies to Japana they wouldn't have decided to attack either of us.

Oh sorry, I forgot that we beat them.
Although as far as I'm aware if Pakistan hadn't been created you'd have just had the Pakistan problem but inside India. At least now you have one target for attack instead.

Mugabe wasn't put in power by us. We helped draw up the agreement that brought an end to the bush (as in jungle not the Texan) war.

We've never been in Saudi Arabia. In fact we've always been their ally. Same for Israel who helped us during Suez. South Africa and Zimbabwe were colonies so they didn't kick our ass at all.

Pay attention Brit boy:
In 1954 Amin was made effendi (warrant officer), the highest rank possible for a Black African in the colonial British Army of that time. Amin returned to Uganda the same year and in 1961 he was promoted to lieutenant, becoming one of the first two Ugandans to become commissioned officers. He was then assigned to quell the cattle rustling between Uganda's Karamojong and Kenya's Turkana nomads. In 1962 he was promoted to captain and then, in 1963, to major.
