Yes of course - but you have to expect it.

You could say that GB News only exists to undermine the democratic process.

And ironically has turned out to be the best tv station Labour could have asked for!

Is there a depreciating asset at the moment with no sign of an uplift that you know of that’ll be far more valuable in a few years’ time?

Asking as I’ll buy lots of it.

It wasnt my point really. Gold was at a very low price. He shouldn't have sold it, thats it really

He probably regrets it in hindsight.

Because whoever we sold it to wasnt as stupid ;)

It would be stupid to think they couldn't buy gold from someone else.

I know a gold dealer, will buy anything off you, old bracelets, rings, coins etc. on his advice ive bought some coins, krugerrands etc.
he wont buy anything at the mo as gold his high. But itll drop and thats when he buys. If i have a bit of spare money i sometimes buy bits but i dont without his say so. Though even i can see when is a good time to buy and when not, its actually not rocket science.

So youd like to think a prime minister and former chancellor with all his advisors would have known that it wasnt a great time to sell. It may have dropped further, but not by much. He just fucked up

Cobblers. Other countries were selling gold too.

And, as pointed put previously, "Between 1970-71 the Bank of England sold nearly half of our gold reserves. Just like the Brown sell-off, it was sold at a historic low of about $42.5/oz in October 1971. Only a year later it was worth $65/oz. This was done under the Tories and Edward Heath and had to be a much larger sale and loss as by the time Brown got to it half had already been sold so in effect Brown only sold a quarter of what was originally held in reserve with the Conservative Heath government selling off half."

There were rational reasons at the time to though.

Did you have a house and you sold it? is that house now years later worth a shit load more? You shouldn't have sold it....

 

[meltonblue]

They’re not.

They’re pretty screwed. They’ve ended up in a position where they’re now only appealing to a dwindling number of the electorate, particularly due to Reform taking the really right wing vote too.

They’re not.

Haha! Still waiting on you taking up that bet you spineless ****! :-)
