Well, now I know what it is but it does not have much relation to the topic here.
I don't know. Maybe closely related to the Laptop war in some way. Apple is in there somewhere trying to maintain its borders. Not sure if they are advancing on any of the flanks or just dig in the fox hole trying to hold the front and defending its position.

Brexit won't happen. It's to much to sort out in UK.

Better to have a pint and call it a day.

May or no May?

Argh!

At this point I WISH Brexit would happen!

I can't take the mash up names and useless abbreviations... any more!

"Brexit"

"Brangelina"

"Ri Ri"

"J - lo "

"POTUS" "SCOTUS"
(frankly the last two sound either revolting to hear ...or borderline x-rated.

The current madness of society is akin to a septic field that is backing up in the yard...on a hot summer day.

Frankly before it got out of control...
the British Exit I found to be a disturbing madness unto itself...

But after hearing "Brexit " this and "Brexit" that...
It has about as much meaning as it sounds...
Like people are talking about a breakfast cereal...or cracker...

"Hey Bill....tried those new Brexit crackers yet?."...

".Why yes I have in fact ...Frank... .I like my Brexits in Ranch flavor personally...."


THAT is about how distanced the deliberately coined term...impact and residual fallout is coming to mean...

And frankly we are all to blame for this watering down of civilization...

Microsoft does have a history of buying small companies. Successful or at least promising companies. Not companies like Jolla.

Say what? They bought Nokia, didn't they?

buying jolla for £100.000 right before it goes bankruptcy would be great deal

I mean stock markets booming everywhere wit all time high without such a great performance by some countries, componies.

I'm sure Microsoft can resell jolla for atleast a few billions later on.

Somethings are fishy at best, broken at worst.

You are absolutely right. They didn't!

Sterling falling, that would be good for stock market and for U.K. Exports and all visitors. But very low growth. 0.2% is not the best in the business.

Still it's to short of time to make any valid conclusions but I wonder if many investments are "on hold" at the moment.

But how low can it go...Anyone planning to visit U.K. To boost the economy and get a cheap trip at the same time?

What product is cheaper in UK than any other country? Some good old whiskey?

There is no "whiskey" made in the UK.
