Re: Boris Johnson

I dont want to make excuses for shit production..but if feel like that wooly production on the earlier P-funk stuff was kind of part of the aesthetic and by the time you get to the later stuff it improves a lot..and even the songs and compositions seem a bit more together.

Re: Boris Johnson

Is that in connection to Charles Moore or Boris Johnson?

More importantly, as someone who's into colour, what do you make of the clash I found so horrendous? Am I oversensitive?


some sort of banal legitimacy

Are they still drawing a handsome salary?

Re: Boris Johnson

Wow. It is all happening today.

Boris pulls out of leadership race.

Fear of failure or a poisoned chalice?

Hope useless scheming May does not win.

Re: Boris Johnson

I think he realised as the class clown, his destiny is never to be the leader. He can laugh, joke, poke fun at himself when you're taking the piss out of him, but in the end, he's destined to always be the bridesmaid.

The leader should be an outer though, definitely not May, or that chap from the valleys, the rugger player, uh er, no thanks. Seriously lacking in charisma and too many flipping of properties and shady business fronts to be a realistic candidate.

Re: Boris Johnson

Well well well. The fudging begins...

There's a chance that this will be a Brexit in all but name.

The bookies fav is May. How can someone who voted stay, lead the negotiations to leave?

Re: Boris Johnson

The FTSE took a bit of a hit when he announced it, although it has recovered somewhat, but the hit was noticeable. Guessing the markets are banking on Mrs May, as Gove is an anti-common market type.

So we've got Gove the "not part of the common market" and May "Europe is our future" 

This will be very interesting.

Re: Boris Johnson

The markets are recovering quite nicely, far from armagideon time, unless you're in the Labour party.

Re: Boris Johnson

Not all businesses are listed, indeed, it is sometimes a big asset not to be beholden to share holders who often are just pumping up the companies to sell on and make a killing. The Left has often stated we shouldn't be so enraptured to the markets, but now those very Leftist are pointing to the market as an indicator of why we've made a terrible mistake.

I've worked for a top FTSE 100 company in the past, they do have an international presence, but they're still primarily in the UK. If your focus is outside of the UK, why domicile yourself there, when you come to places like The Netherlands where you can headquarter yourself with ease and pay much less corporation tax with a plaque on the wall and friendly director or two?

Re: Boris Johnson

^ you don't get the maths do you.
11.4% drop in value means it needs to rise by 12.8% to return to it's original value
as the % move is calculated from the drop of a high value and conversly a rise is calculated from the lower value.

I'm not pushing any political agenda, just pointing out some mathematical comparisons.

Re: Boris Johnson

Well the pounds crash is currently costing me an extra £90/day on per diem payments to my crew alone.
Can't yet say how much it will affect the whole job but somewhere in the region of £4K on 16 dates.

Re: Boris Johnson

7.43% loss on Friday, followed by a 4.8% loss on Monday/Tuesday, so from the Friday high point a combined 11.41 % drop.
