Giuliani: Under constitution, Trump could shoot Comey and not be indicted

We have a particularly poor crop of politicians at the moment. At least 50% of the representatives of the two main parties think/know that their leader is shit. There is a danger that London could lose the financial capital status, it's already losing a lot of EU regulator jobs. What people didn't realise that a lot of regulations and EU bureaucracy is based here.

A typical scenario is that the headquarters of drugs regulation for the 28 EU countries, the EMA, is based in London. That makes London a good place for big Pharma to have it's European base. That HQ is now being moved to Amsterdam losing a ton of good jobs. All the big pharma lobbyists will follow as in time will their HQs. Of course the real shitty thing is that if you are a drug manufacturer in the UK you will still have to meet all the regulations that the EMU come out with because otherwise you go under as you cannot sell your drugs in Europe. You will now also probably have a trade tarrif to pay and of course the UK will no longer have any say at all in whatever regulations they come up with in Amsterdam. No one had thought this through including incidentally the EMA which are contracted to pay the lease on the HQ until 2039! Knock on affects all over eg 36 000 scientists and regulators visit London each year to go to the EMA. Banking regulation has gone to Paris.

There are dozens of examples of shit like this - it's a fucking economic disaster.

The EU is win win for Germany because the Frankfort bank backs the Euro. They just cleverly expanded the Dutch Mark and used convenience to sell it. In the end the Germans have the printing press and they can eventually get the rest of Europe to default to them. Also notice Germany still has the industrial base and exports that other countries lost. It's like the Germans just waged a financial war and grabbed more loot than Hitler did with tanks and troops. I think long-term the UK is best served getting out of the EU and keeping the pound sterling but you have to keep your financial capital and you have to bring back your industrial base and without politicians with vision and a public willing to make short sacrifices for long-term gains it's difficult. The EU was a clever snow job the aristocracy of Europe made happen. What it really does is rob citizens of their votes and countries of their culture and identity. Everything becomes ran by an unelected board and the local politicians become show pieces. Really clever how they did it.
