In a corner of parliament at the far end of the Royal gallery a box lies permantly open containing sand from all five Normandy beaches -a reminder to both houses of the sacrifice & the cause of freedom fought for by brave service people on DDay June 6 th 1944. #DDay
Wherever you are in your investment journey, listening to this man who has twenty five years investment experience under his belt will pay dividends (no pun intended lol).
“I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time -- when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness...
The dumbing down of American is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance”

Back in January I tweeted my doubts that Pres Trump really intended to come to the aid of Iran’s people by pushing for regime change. The responses were angry and personal, naturally. But does anyone still believe he’s genuinely thinking of overthrowing the Islamic republic?
@FIREDUpWealth Greek yogurt, nuts and seeds at 10am has enough fat to keep me going all day until supper. I take my own ground coffee and cream into work. We never have takeaway food and only eat out whilst on holiday. Not spending money that way means good quality food at home with £ to spare.
@KobeissiLetter This shows precisely his level of ignorance. Stock market is down because investors foresee that the jobs report does not forestall the likelihood of rate rises due to his vanity war with Iran.
Barely a month ago this man was imprisoned for the violent rape of a Sikh woman believing that she was a Muslim. No Douglas Murray articles in the Spectator, no Baroness Fox speech in the Lords. No riots. Two tier? Too right https://t.co/8wABWe3bww
