Brexit

Now the head of the IMF has jumped on the band wagon saying it will be bad if Brtian leaves the EU.

What I want to know is who will it actually be bad for if we do leave? Us or them?

Is it a smoke sceen that they know that if we leave we will be OK and the rest of the EU will collapse around their ears knowig that one of the biggest contrbutors has left and they do not know where or who is going to make up this deficet?

Re: Brexit

The fear and scaremongering that is being spread around appears to assume the EU is going to be business as usual should the UK decide to leave and I don't see how it can be given the financial black hole that will appear in the EU accounts

It would be good if these people actually give some credibility to their statements by supporting it with some facts. With bookmakers taking bets on a 20 cent rise against the Dollar if we stay in the EU may be there is a vested interest and some insider dealing coming to light

Currently you have to dig deep to find any real information on the EU and a lot of proposed new rules that would affect the UK are being suppressed until after the referendum for fear it will sway the vote

As usual none of these politicians and experts are being honest with the voter and are making speculative comments based on the continued existence of the EU after brexit which with other EU states suggesting they will have in / out referendums should the UK vote leave could spell the end of the EU anyway

Re: Brexit

Apparently the French finance minister says a Brexit would be bad for the French. I suspect this is why the IMF have jumped on the Brexit scaremongering.

The IMF haven't got a clue. They said it would be terrible for the UK if we didn't join the Euro. The IMF didn't foresee the crash of 2008 and now they haven't got a clue either.

What the IMF should be saying is that the Euro has held back European growth since about 2002 and it has ruined the lives of a generation in Greece, Spain, Portugal, Italy etc. Etc

Re: Brexit

In December 2015 International Monetary Fund chief Christine Lagarde has been ordered to stand trial in France over her role in a 2008 arbitration ruling that handed 400 million euros ($605 million Cdn) to French businessman Bernard Tapie.

Lagarde, who was French finance minister at the time, denied wrongdoing in a statement Thursday and said she had ordered her lawyers to appeal the decision. Lagarde has maintained her innocence since the investigation began in 2011.

The spokesman did not have details of the lengthy written decision, and could not say exactly which charges were retained and therefore how much prison time, or fines, she might face, if convicted.
Lagarde said in a statement released by French adviser Marc Vanghelder that she "always acted in this affair in the interest of the state and in respect of the law." She considers "no charge can be attributed to her," the statement said.
Lagarde's lawyers have five days after the formal notification of the decision to lodge an appeal. Formal notification may not take place Thursday. "It's incomprehensible," her lawyer, Yves Repiquet, told i-Tele television.
The probe began before Lagarde became IMF chief in 2011. She took over from Dominique Strauss-Kahn, who left under sexual assault allegations.

I have come into some money, from a long lost Great Aunt's estate . I was thinking of going to see a financial adviser. However, they are hugely expensive, and apparently there are all sorts of different types depending of what sort of advice your after, and there are some who cannot be trusted, and some just plain awful.

I was feeling a bit daunted, until I started reading some of the posts here. Clearly here, are some of the greatest fiscal aficionados, Europe has ever known and my fears are now dissipated.

So where do you Doyen's recommend I should invest my two shillings & sixpence?

You can put up to £50 k per person in premium bonds. And you may get a few winners. No risk as its government backed.
