OT. The futures Bright, the Futures Brexit!!!

Bloody Belgians coming over here and taking over our rambling forum threads

[Tichi1]

Brexit will be the making of this country - and if the jockstraps choose to leave - then they will be in for a bumpy ride - Frying pan to fire springs to mind - but we will be allright jack -of this i'm certain!

Incidentally it's funny how so many remainers seem to think the leavers where all conned into it? patronising or what!

[roger_ramjet]

Thanks for that Tich. I trust you read the whole thread before giving us your insights. I can see why there isn't a similar thread to this on the Leeds board

Roger Ramjet...who'd a thunk it! The secret to life, the Universe and everything...well the answer to a major problem with the EU at least...and it's not 42!
Good post, sir. We've had our (healthy and constructive) differences of opinion but I applaud your reasoning. Could have saved it for #500 but I guess 'Manofpride' might be waiting for that honour having started it all.
In the meantime, maybe young Ramjet could take over from Jean Claude.

I dont think Swale will give in so easily!!! 500 still on the cards

You'll change your mind when things get worse, worse and even more worse. I see today that Nat West want to charge negative interest when your account is even in credit. It is said that all the other banks are watching closely.I'm all right Jack used to be a Trade Union motto but look where they are now.

Nice bit of DailyMailism there. NatWest MAY charge negative interest and only if 'you' are a business

Not 'giving in' RR...and no, not van Damme either! Sorry to disappoint.
Just think you make a very good point regarding the EU. It's not actually a reason for us leaving, well not in our position anyway, as far as I can tell but it is one of the most objective and, imo, well reasoned criticisms of one of the EU's major failings.
I certainly haven't, and I don't think Swale has, ever said we're 100% behind the EU but I think he, and I know I, have always maintained that our continued membership is better for both Europe and the U.K. That's all.

As I have a number of businesses all of which bank with Natwest, I can be specific on this one:

"global interest rates remain at very low levels and in some markets are currently negative. Dependent on future market conditions. this could result in us charging interest on credit balances. We'll provide you with the appropriate notice before doing so should this situation ever arise."

This will be effective 3/10/16 when new business bank accounts terms and conditions will change.

I have not received a similar advice from any of my personal bank accounts with Natwest.

I never read the Daily Mail. I heard it on the Radio Four Today programme. They said that people might choose to keep their money under the mattress again.
