100%! Trans people shouldn't even need to ask for support! It should be a given!

Oh I see, you believe trans people are a underclass who should be subject to the whims and wants of Cissies! Nope! It is black and white, you either support trans people fully or you are a transphobe!

LGBT but particularly T people have tried asking nicely for decades and had no goodwill in return. Which is why trans people now do as we please! If it upsets the cissies then... oh well!

I'm afraid trans people have asked nicely for decades, cissies we're still vile and transphobic which is why trans people gave up on the 'be nice' approach and now do as we please and litigate where you stand in our way!

If people believe that they can tread on trans people or erode our rights then they are badly mistaken! We would rather get along nicely but we aren't subservient to or dependant on the whims of cissies!

Yep, this loony belief that trans people should be subservient to or a underclass to cisgender people is stupid! Fascists will always be called out and no, us trans folks will use whichever single sex spaces feel right for us! If cissies dislike that then that's a shame! 🤣😂

I'm afraid it's this simple! There isn't any negotiation over this, trans people aren't a sub class or subservient to cisgender people. Don't like trans women in female bathrooms, changing rooms or sports? Well that's a shame as we aren't asking or needing your approval! Hope that helps! 🏳️⚧️ ❤️

Be a bugger if they mixed up their food ration cans with a can of C4 wouldn't it! The last can you'll open! Boom and half your body is gone!

Pack it with food cans only the contents are C4 and the cans designed to fragment throwing shrapnel out at unwitting Russians fiddling with the cargo!

Wouldn't let that down the drain, seriously the pulp from a diaper will totally clog drains! 🤣

Society doesn't need money at all! It's a daft system carried forward from previous backward generations! That humanity holds itself back over pieces of paper! 🤣😂

Ooh that could be fun, fill it with dummy drones and cameras then hit the button and boom 💥 no more Russians! 🤣😂🤣

'Russian intelligence' that's a misnomer as this attack proved!

Money exists without banks. Your point is??

... as they were futures contracts, you can't just go 'sorry, rogue employee, please unwind the deal' 🤣😂

'rEaD tHe ArTiClE' 🤣😂🤣 Hilarious! Unlike you I have lived experience of Barings whilst I was an insolvency practitioner and who worked on Barings insolvency case! It was a hoot when we finally added up Lessons gambles realising losses were potentially in the billions! It was hard to unwind to...

They absolutely do! You can't have a business, a bank, that can never financially fail! Otherwise banks can take unlimited reckless risks without any risk to the bank!
comment in response to
post
How foolish are you! It did! The reason it went bust is the bank owed more in futures contracts and margin payments than the entire net worth of the bank! 🤣😂
comment in response to
post
Nope! Government in fact made its position clear that no, it would never save a bank again in the same manner!
comment in response to
post
Again you conflate banking guarantees that protect consumers and not banks. The banking guarantee provides no liquidity to banks themselves, in fact it's designed to allow banks to go bust without risk to consumers!

The article is however Bearings wasnt a High Street bank and if you knew anything at all about U.K. banking laws you'd realise that investment banks operate very differently to High Street banks. There is no similarity!
comment in response to

What's 'impossible' that banks didn't all spontaneously go bust at the same time?? 🤣🤣😂😂
comment in response to
post
Governments don't ordinarily provide liquidity to banks! They did during the credit crunch otherwise around a third of the banks would have gone bust! Destroying the economy in the process!
comment in response to
post
They can and they do! Very few banks during the credit crunch needed financial aid, the majority didn't need any help!
comment in response to
post
Nick Leeson did all sorts of frauds - created fake customers, used bank and not customer assets to trade with! Hid huge losses!
comment in response to
post
Bearings was a very different matter! It wasn't a bank that went bust through its own fault, rather the fault of a single trader who broke every rule in the book my gambling with the banks and not customers money! He also carried out multiple frauds in the process!

Incorrect. Liquidity ratios were made far more strict as a result of banks failures during the 'credit crunch' and going bust!

Bless, you thought I can't translate Swedish! Oops! I only lived and worked in Sweden for like 4 years of my life as a doctor! 🤣😂 Freaky language though, I had many lols learning it! Not that it's really needed, most learn English too!

Meaningless! Almost all countries have forms of retail banking guarantees, it largely stops runs on the bank when concerns around a banks solvency circulate and depositors queue to pull their cash! However it's limited in value and generally only protects retail and not corporate customers!
comment in response to
post
Incorrect. In fact fractional reserve, the old fashioned and risky means that banks magically created money for lending has long gone. Banks now can only lend money of their own capital!
comment in response to
post
Government does not provide liquidity support and in fact government has made it clear to banks that they must stand on their own to feet and fall on their own sword when being reckless in future. Government will save customers not banks! It's why several banks have since gone bust!
comment in response to
post
Incorrect. Banks in the U.K. were briefly given liquidity support as so many banks were at risk of bankruptcy that it could have collapsed the economy. Now? Nope. In fact most banks have repaid their government support!
comment in response to
post
'sAvEd' no sweetie, customers of Baring lost every pennny! Barings was an investment bank not a High Street bank ergo investors deemed 'sophisticated investors' and capable of judging risk and solvency of the bank. The bank in original form lost to bankruptcy!
comment in response to
post
To get around that banks setup investment bank divisions that don't use their retail banking customers money and retail banks that can't take such gambles!
comment in response to
post
Try listening for a change! It wasn't saved because it was an investment bank and not a High Street bank! It's why there is a big boundary between investment banks and High Street banks, High Street banks can't 'gamble' with depositor funds, investment banks can!
comment in response to
post
Nick Leeson was just gambling and not even in an educated manner with client funds, then hid the losses writing fake documents to support the money still existing! 🤣😂
comment in response to
post
Of course they consumed clients money! They used it up on betting on investment risk and lost the lot! Nick Leeson was bloody awesome, the definition of #EatTheRich though he did go to jail for it! 🤣😂
comment in response to
post
I'm afraid just as some of their customers are deemed high risk and only offered higher interest on borrowing or even not offered any at all that banks found themselves in the same position! They were offered liquidity but at huge cost!
comment in response to
post
Banks have never had shortage of liquidity! Just that accessing liquidity became more costly as that lending became deemed high risk! All of the banks that went bust had access to liquidity just that their boards balked at the price tag!
comment in response to
post
Nope, companies have no guarantee whatsoever! If your bank goes bust you lose every penny! Corporates are deemed 'sophisticated investors' etgo the onus is on them to check a banks credit worthiness!

You so clearly don't! You are a prime example of Dunning Kruger!

Additionally Barings couldn't be saved, they tried to tap on every banks door begging for money and were 😂 at! As it was an investment bank it lives by and dies by the sword! Ya win some ya lose some! They lost a hella lot and not their lot! 🤣😂 #EatTheRich
comment in response to

Though I did 😂 at Barings going bust! A rich bank for rich people goes bust due to its own stupidity! Barings wasn't a high street bank however so your example is poor. It was a high net worth investment bank not a High Street banking institution. Its customers are deemed to be able to risk assess.
