Breaking news and expert analysis on fast-moving AIM and LSE listed shares
Once again we are told that it is 1 minute to midnight for Greece. Where have we heard that before? So who blinks? It seems to be Greek PM Alex Tsipras who is set to cave into the banksters and impose even more misery on the poor folk of Greece.

DUCK AND DIVE
I suppose his worst crime will be undermining your call on Grexit.
Tom Winnifrith
D&D. No his worst crime is not reneging on all his election promises made just months ago but betraying his people by signing up for accelerated austerity & poverty with no debt relief.

“Trust not for freedom to the Franks— They have a king who buys and sells ;
In native swords and native ranks The only hope of courage dwells :
But Turkish force and Latin fraud
Would break your shield, however broad.”
Enjoyed reading the poem, Tom; the above verse seemed particularly applicable given Christine Lagarde’s position with the IMF:
Instead of listening to the lying promises of unelected, Brussels bureaucrats and allowing themselves to be bullied by the likes of Christine Lagarde, who would enslave every last one of them, the Greeks should heed the wisdom of their ancestors.
“Freedom is the sure possession of those alone who have the courage to defend it.”
Pericles

The Eurocrats and the Greeks deserve each other. The Greeks have hairdressers retiring at 50 on full pensions because of the ‘hazardous nature’ of their work…. A nation of corrupt scroungers dealing with a Union of undemocratic, corrupt bureaucrats. A plague on both their houses.

Thanks Tom. Time people realised what Greece was up against. A system run by and for the Banks. It will fall but their propaganda has been so endless and widespread most people still don’t get it. Greece is the whipping boy to keep the rest in line. I think even Merkel knows that.

How much do reckon they’d get for the Elgin Marbles if we were to do the decent thing? They must be worth a fair bit and every little helps, as they say…
