It's quite poetic that Thomas Schelling famously modeled racial segregation. He proved the optimum figure for people who want to live with others mainly like them to produce an almost perfectly segregated society. That figure? 52%
 
Another chunky devaluation of the £ has put my business in jeopardy I am afraid.

I am now going to have to go to my suppliers for help, as the further the £ drops the more it comes off my bottom line.

They will probably tell me to sniff it! However, it's a LTD company so be it on their own heads etc...if I am put out of business through this massive fiasco I will be looking after myself and nobody else.
 
As a complete aside, there was an article by Farage in the telegraph regarding the USA elections and Brexit. Apart from all the usual stuff though it was this little section that caught my eye.......

"Not only did JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs help to fund the Remain campaign but they increasingly give the appearance of owning a whole section of our political class. When Berlusconi was forced to resign as the Italian prime minister, he was replaced by the unelected Mario Monti, a Goldman Sachs man.

The recently retired EU Commission president, José Manuel Barroso, now has a job with Goldman Sachs, despite being a former Maoist. This week’s Wikileaks exposé shows that Hillary Clinton has been paid good money doing speeches for Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs and the Wall Street giants. They really must like her as she told them that she wants a hemispheric common market.

The similarities between the different sides in this election are very like our own recent battle. As the rich get richer and big companies dominate the global economy, voters all across the West are being left behind. The blue-collar workers in the valleys of South Wales angry with Chinese steel dumping voted Brexit in their droves. In the American rust belt, traditional manufacturing industries have declined, and it is to these people that Trump speaks very effectively, since they have all but given up hope of Washington."

We hear a lot of claims about how Murdock and the media really rule the country, but it would be good to see a spotlight turned onto a couple of these banks...........
