Why do you think skinheads are called skinheads Joe? They're a common sight in far-right groups.
 
At the launch of the WEF risk report for 2018 and it's interesting that no specific mention of Brexit has been made. Lots of banal generalities like.

They focus on banal generalities......

Top 5 global risks in 2018 in terms of likelihood:
1) Extreme weather events
2) Natural disasters
3) Cyberattacks
4) Data fraud or theft
5) Failure of climate-change mitigation and adaptation

Top 5 global risks in 2018 in terms of impact:
1) Weapons of mass destruction
2) Extreme weather events
3) Natural disasters
4) Failure of climate-change mitigation and adaptation
5) Water crises

And we need a world report to tell us that. We could have concluded this on here within 5 minutes........

It was quite amusing how many different ways they could come up with to not say Trump was a risk. Even when asked directly about the US withdrawal from Paris, they fluffed around it. Very poor imo.
 


Hmm, it's interesting that he does have a history with Russia.

ZEIT ONLINE: You did not meet the Russian Embassy's deputy chief-of-mission in London?

Farage: Nope.

ZEIT ONLINE: Not in 2013, before the Brexit campaign was conceived ?

Farage: Ah, hang on. He came to the EP office. Or I met him in London. So what?

ZEIT ONLINE: Why did you meet him?

Farage: I think you are a nutcase! You are really a nutcase! Brexit is the best thing to happen: for Russia, for America, for Germany and for democracy. And that's the key point.

Get him hung and quartered.
 
This has just hit the wires.

Officials have decided to move a data center for the European Union's new satellite navigation system out of Britain because of Brexit.

The European Commission says diplomats voted Thursday to relocate the Galileo Security Monitoring Center's backup site from Swanwick to Spain.

In a statement Friday, the commission said it was "a consequence of the U.K. withdrawal from the EU."

Spain welcomed the decision, which needs formal approval Wednesday, saying it will create about 100 jobs at the new site on the outskirts of Madrid.

Galileo is Europe's answer to the U.S. Global Positioning System, or GPS, which has long been the mainstay of satellite navigation devices in cars, planes and mobile phones.

Britain has already lost the European Medicines Agency and the European Banking Authority because of Brexit.
