If they were to apply the rules strictly I wouldn’t be crowing so hard
The Uk have managed to get there’s down from 115%.... but at the moment the uk debt still stand at 83% of GDP... it was 85% last year |

So it turns out all this austerity we have been suffering has nothing to do with the tories its down to the EU and its rules. |

I'll tell you what I think .
The ultimate dream of many .
Is not just for us to leave the EU but for us to be the driver in the total collapse of the EU and for us to come out on top of the chaos that will follow .

See costa, if that is the narrative you are trying to push then that is wrong
The economic concept of austerity is that you need to look at it like a credit card... what the uk was doing was putting borrowing on a card whilst not being able to pay the balance hence pushing up the debt!
The government have managed to reduce borrowing, the original target of not borrowing at all has been ditched, but we are not borrowing anywhere near as much as we did!
The Eu has played no part in these decisions... |

Nobody should be taking pleasure in reading that Italy is having problems. I would imagine that fining them would see an upsurge in anti EU feeling over there, so I’m betting that it won’t happen. What is more likely is that the EU will offer some kind of bail out.
They cannot afford to lose another major nation, debt or no debt. |

Is this the fiscal stability pact?
While the UK is not part of the €, the UK is required to notify European authorities - every 3 months, I think - of the action it is taking to bring its debt/GDP ratio down to the maximum set for all members. |

See... it’s posts like this that shows a gross misunderstanding of what the figures actually mean!!
If you want an example then at the beginning of the Greek debt crisis... Greece’s gdp to debt ratio was smaller than the uk’ s
the issue was that Greece’s economy wasn’t strong enough that the government didn’t have the tax receipts to come in to cover it ( the joke in Greece’s was that for the richest that paying tax was optional)
The uk economy was strong enough they could cover which is why banks and the stock markets were happy to lend, Greece’s reached a head when these groups stopped lending... at which point they were close to default, which is why Greece’s had to raise bond rates through the roof to entice people back in |

What i read _abio that if it goes above 60% of gdp you must prove to the eu that you are taking measures to bring it down ever quarter thats their fical rules check their website.As our government like to stick to the rules unlike some others is austerity the consequence of these actions? |

Austerity is for poor people.
For the rich it's been tax cuts.
Cut spending for the poorest on the one hand, and use the money saved in hand-outs for the wealthy.
Nothing to do with the EU and everything to do with Tory ideology.
Meanwhile, keep your fingers crossed that GDP growth erodes the ratio of debt.
Except Brexit seriously fucks that up.
Now we have a succession of Tory candidates making huge spending pledges on the one hand and huge reductions in taxes on the other hand.
How will that be paid for? |

Well you ain't going to raise more tax from the poor are you?.
If you want more tax to pay for the poor your going to need capitalism and capital and that comes from the wealthy in the main.
The trouble with the left is there still stuck in the 70s and think you can just tax the wealthy to pay for the poor, have you ever been to Monaco loads of apartments and nobody in them?.
Pay your CT in corke at 0.01%.
Pay your income tax in Monaco.
Live,travel anywhere, build your plants in Slovakia.
The EU was never about the poor, it was always about the rich, they write the laws, the trade deals, superannuational statutes, they throw you a bone to keep you happy in your little world they created for you by the media that err they own as well.
The media!! The only loss making industry kept propped up by the wealthy!!.
Pay your vat in Luxembourg. |

Year after year, the doom sayers predict a rush of countries following the UK out the door.
Year after year, it's all shown to be bogus.
Yet still people keep trotting it out.
Just like all the repetitive chants about Brexit.
It's like that series of Dallas that never actually happened - total fantasy.
You'd almost think the last three years never happened.

The collapse of the EU has started,the sooner we are out the better.Us leaving will speed it up but it would have happened anyway.
THE Euro was good in theory but in practice bad,stupid and impracticle thank god for Gordon Brown.If half wit Blaire had is way we would be in the Euro with no way out. |
