And much of it the result of government borrowing.

Nice point, well-illustrated.

IOW, the output of the UK, as "low" as it currently is with all of our
current difficulties, was never higher under Labour as it is today and
was usually lower.

It would appear that Nugent loves the figures; but maybe someone could tell
me how after 200,000 job losses and almost 10,000,000 furloughed at one
point, our GDP figure can even approach the pre-Covid number?

The answer is that it doesn't.

But the graph includes the last several years of the period in office of
the final Labour government and at no stage does that graph show that
output was higher during that period than it is now (let alone earlier
this year).

I'd already said that a slightly different way, as: ...the output of the
UK, as "low" as it currently is with all of our current difficulties,
was never higher under Labour as it is today and was usually lower".

Ah, but despite not having any guide to what the numbers on the left hand
axis refer to, the dimwits will think that graph is highly scientific.

They believe everything they read in the Mail, as it couldn’t possibly lie
- or even be biased and/or misleading.

The Daily Mail, and all the other lying rags, were useful when fish and
chips were wrapped in them - and, in some households, cut into squares
and hung up in the smallest room. Nowadays, they rarely even get used

Nice point, well-illustrated.
IOW, the output of the UK, as "low" as it currently is with
all of our current difficulties, was never higher under Labour
as it is today and was usually lower.
Groan...
IOW, the output of the UK, as "low" as it currently is with all
of our current difficulties, was never higher under Labour than
it is today and was usually lower.
I'd ask you to define 'output' if I thought your answer would be
worth the candle.
You could always read the article and perhaps enquire of the author.
An 'author' in the Daily Mail - might as well as you or that other
idiot Babbelard.
Sticking a finger in each ear and shouting "La la la la - I can't
hear you" is so much easier than trying to prove that the figures
are incorrect.
I don't know if they're correct or not, or care - they're just
meaningless.
That's almost as easy as sticking a finger in each ear.
Go on then, tell me all about this 'output of the UK' - what does it
consist of, and how was it measured and by whom?
Have you read the relevant article?
If you have, you know the answer.
If you haven't, why not?
Because I don't need to. I was referring to your comments, nothing else
- and they weren't in quotes. Now, about this UK output?
What relevant article is our resident supreme dimwit waffling about?
The link posted here was to a graph, which is why it was a jpg file.
Perhaps he would like to link to a (or any) Daily Mail article which he
considers to be relevant to life in the UK today?
The Daily Mail, and all the other lying rags, were useful when fish and
chips were wrapped in them - and, in some households, cut into squares
and hung up in the smallest room. Nowadays, they rarely even get used
for those purposes.
Isn’t the Daily Mail fronting a campaign to ‘get Britain flying again’
?

That will work wonders for their airline shareholdings and ad revenue - but
what will it do for air pollution and carbon emissions?

Only the totally selfish read that kind of crap.

And if that link doesn’t work, let me guide you through the graph which
shows UK debt as a percentage of UK GDP through the years.

From 1994-1997 it bumbles along at about 18% of GDP, rises slowly to just
over 30% of GDP under the Labour administration until the 2008 recession. It
then jumps to 40% in 2009, 50% in 2010, 60% in 2012, 70% in 2014, 80% in
2017, 90% in 2019; and now stands at just over 100% of GDP.

The slime balls will still be asleep for a few hours.This is why posting in
the morning is such a bonus.

Apparently they all *live* in the UK but always (i.e. everyday) set their
alarms for 1300 BST, and are still posting at 0200 BST. They deny they are
prostitutes or night club bouncers/uber drivers/just eat moped riders, and so
we are left to guess at their strange professions - or the coincidental-ness

I sleep when it is dark, which is the whole point of aligning the clocks to
maximise daylight.

Trying to work on a time zone which is 90degs(6 hours) west of where you
live, seems very illogical.

the sheep are asleep...so they stop bleating and interrupting me

some people wake noisy and run down during the day...
i wake tired and get more energy the longer the day
goes on...

many people never wake up...my problem is difficulty sleeping...
my mind does not like to stop

it's very convenient in a work environment...i do the jobs others
don't want

you sleep while i work...what a lazy slob you must be!
I sleep when it is dark, which is the whole point of aligning the clocks to
maximise daylight.
Trying to work on a time zone which is 90degs(6 hours) west of where you
live, seems very illogical.
the sheep are asleep...so they stop bleating and interrupting me
Yes, I suppose you do have a point.

some people wake noisy and run down during the day...
i wake tired and get more energy the longer the day
goes on...
many people never wake up...my problem is difficulty sleeping...
my mind does not like to stop
it's very convenient in a work environment...i do the jobs others
don't want

That must be rather socially limiting during the winter. Lighting up
time in your neck of the woods - circa 16:30 in late December? Slightly
later? Slightly earlier?

Have you read the relevant article?
If you have, you know the answer.
If you haven't, why not?
Because I don't need to. I was referring to your comments, nothing
else - and they weren't in quotes. Now, about this UK output?
See the graphic referred to.
It certainly was not something I created.
But you knew that all along.
You said 'article'.
And now he says graphic.
Both exist and can be found together in the same place (if you are
prepared to spend 15 seconds looking for them).

Which shows just what a slimy little dishonest shit we are dealing with.
Only a graphic (of a graph!) was originally instanced. That is true.

If either half of you wants the derivation of that graph / graphic, it
(the graphic) is associated with an article which is easy to find on the
Daily Mail website.

Bot you will, under both of your identities, prefer to act all prissy
when it is suggested that the information you want is exactly where you
would expect to find it.

Pathetic. Not worth the candle, has I said originally.

You should try being honest for once, instead of acting like one of
those pathetically immature football supporters clinging to a tawdry
collection of one-sided statistics

I searched for the graph on the Mail website, but couldn’t find anything
which even came close to that unscientific nonsense; which is why I posted
the one showing national debt as a % of GDP.

I see no one is falling over themselves to congratulate the government on
that one (as accurately predicted by Giles). Maybe the on-message instruction
is to pretend that the increase from 40% to over 100% between 2010 and 2020
results entirely from Covid?

Or, more than likely, to remain totally silent on the subject of the debt
mountain.

Not according to qualified financial experts (which you are not). A
sustainable level is 65% of GDP, above which production will slow and
eventually the financial markets will take fright.

Once the currency starts to slide in value, interest rates would have to rise
and that adds to the problem.

How long did it take though, and we had close to full employment - a decent
manufacturing base and a healthy export trade for quite a bit of that time..

Where are we going to get our exports from, unless we continue to start more
wars overseas? (And let’s not pretend the old chestnut of invisible
earnings is going to bail us out if we have interest rates of 5%).

5% of £3 trillion is £150 billion. Care to suggest how we are going to pay

I see no one is falling over themselves to congratulate the government
on
that one (as accurately predicted by Giles). Maybe the on-message
instruction
is to pretend that the increase from 40% to over 100% between 2010 and
2020
results entirely from Covid?
Or, more than likely, to remain totally silent on the subject of the

1. there is virtually no interest
Can you guarantee that for the next few years?
no...
1.it depends on whether the gov't borrows on fixed or variable
interest
2.whether they borrow in the uk or abroad
Post by Keema's Nan
Post by abelard
2.governments have absolutely no intention of repaying the
so-called national debt
government debt is just a form of hidden taxation...
the bigger the so-called debt, the more the gov't gains
Not according to qualified financial experts (which you are not). A
sustainable level is 65% of GDP, above which production will slow and
eventually the financial markets will take fright.
you are allowed to believe what you wish

keynes:-
I have done worst in the only two subjects of which I possessed a
solid knowledge – Mathematics and Economics. I scored more marks for
English History than for Mathematics – is it credible? For Economics I
got a relatively low percentage and was eight or ninth in order of
merit – whereas I knew the whole of both papers in a really elaborate
way. On the other hand, in Political Science, to which I devoted less
than a fortnight in all, I was easily first of everybody. I was also
first in Logic and Psychology and in Essay. [1906]

He was later to say: "I evidently knew more about Economics than my
examiners."

How long did it take though, and we had close to full employment - a decent

in dying industries

Where are we going to get our exports from, unless we continue to start more
wars overseas? (And let’s not pretend the old chestnut of invisible
earnings is going to bail us out if we have interest rates of 5%).
by invisible tends to be meant non-manufactures like insurance...
a business which britain has been profitably active for centuries

5% of £3 trillion is £150 billion. Care to suggest how we are going to pay
that interest each year in the future?
the inflation rate is around 5% at present
the debt is around 2 trillion
5% of 2 trillion is 100 billion...thus the real debt will have
dropped by only 50 billion

Yes and that debt was not completely paid off until 2006 - by Gordon Brown.

Even at 1% that is around £30 billion a year simply in interest.

Let’s use the 60 year rule, and assume we will finally pay off this current
debt in 2080.

£3 trillion (I’m being kind here, it could be double that by the time
Cummings steps down) over 60 years means we will have to pay £50 billion per
year to get the debt reduced to zero in 60 years; plus the yearly interest
rate.

If for interest rate purposes we take the debt to be half of what it is at
its maximum - because by 2080 the debt will be 0 and we need an average.
Let’s be (very) generous and work with an average interest rate over the
period of 2%.

That is £30 billion in interest, and £50 billion loan repayment - so £80
billion per year for the next 60 years. And that is equivalent to our entire
annual education budget, (or, if you like it another way - twice our annual
defence budget).
How about
starting from somewhere like the late seventies - pre-Thatcher? Go on,

payments without doing permanent damage to public spending.
1. there is virtually no interest
2.governments have absolutely no intention of repaying the
so-called national debt
government debt is just a form of hidden taxation...
the bigger the so-called debt, the more the gov't gains
<Chuckle> - what a clown, and a lying dishonest clown at that.

3.the real value of money is constantly eroding...it has been
for centuries....for government, control of money is about
power, not value
4. after ww2 the uk national debt was nearer 200%...it has
been paid down
<More chuckles) - WW2 is it, what a convenient starting point.
Yes and that debt was not completely paid off until 2006 - by Gordon Brown.
Even at 1% that is around £30 billion a year simply in interest.
Let’s use the 60 year rule, and assume we will finally pay off this current
debt in 2080.
£3 trillion (I’m being kind here, it could be double that by the time
Cummings steps down) over 60 years means we will have to pay £50 billion per
year to get the debt reduced to zero in 60 years; plus the yearly interest
rate.
If for interest rate purposes we take the debt to be half of what it is at
its maximum - because by 2080 the debt will be 0 and we need an average.
Let’s be (very) generous and work with an average interest rate over the
period of 2%.
That is £30 billion in interest, and £50 billion loan repayment - so £80
billion per year for the next 60 years. And that is equivalent to our entire
annual education budget, (or, if you like it another way - twice our annual
defence budget).
How about
starting from somewhere like the late seventies - pre-Thatcher? Go on,
tell us how today compares with that?

£2.4 trillion and counting (upwards at £5,170 per second, currently).
https://www.nationaldebtclock.co.uk
you won't understand government debt until you understand
that debt for government is nothing like debt for the citizen
https://www.abelard.org/inflation.php
It's exactly like it, idiot, except government have to borrow even more
to pay the interest.
You are a dishonest jackal.
Babbelard, and Nugent and Rowing for that matter, are just bag-carriers
for the money lenders and money creators.
Arguing with them is a waste of time, because they have an agenda which
precludes looking for ways to improve society, and the lives of the
majority. They are only concerned with what is best for them and those
they represent.
Lardy is, of course, raving mad - and the others just dishonest and not
very bright.
And yet Nugent insists he has an honours degree.
I’m not sure where he bought it, maybe the University of Misery Bay,
Michigan?
Lots of thick people have honours degrees. We have an education system
largely designed for plodders.

imv a good way of removing the crap is to examine government
income instead of alleged expenditure

a major number used in macro-economics is the debt as a percentage
of gdp

Have you read the relevant article?
If you have, you know the answer.
If you haven't, why not?
Because I don't need to. I was referring to your comments, nothing
else - and they weren't in quotes. Now, about this UK output?
See the graphic referred to.
It certainly was not something I created.
But you knew that all along.
You said 'article'.
And now he says graphic.
Both exist and can be found together in the same place (if you are
prepared to spend 15 seconds looking for them).
Post by Keema's Nan
Which shows just what a slimy little dishonest shit we are dealing with.
Only a graphic (of a graph!) was originally instanced. That is true.
If either half of you wants the derivation of that graph / graphic, it
(the graphic) is associated with an article which is easy to find on the
Daily Mail website.
Bot you will, under both of your identities, prefer to act all prissy
when it is suggested that the information you want is exactly where you
would expect to find it.
what amused me was the economically illiterate swedehead banging on
about the mail while the graph was derived from ons data :-)
you could hardly make it up!
I searched for the graph on the Mail website, but couldn’t find anything
which even came close to that unscientific nonsense; which is why I posted
the one showing national debt as a % of GDP.
I see no one is falling over themselves to congratulate the government on
that one (as accurately predicted by Giles). Maybe the on-message instruction
is to pretend that the increase from 40% to over 100% between 2010 and 2020
results entirely from Covid?
Or, more than likely, to remain totally silent on the subject of the debt
mountain.
Contrary to expectations, it seems that you (both halves of you) really
want to see the article.

Or are you just saying so in the belief that it doesn't exist and so
cannot be produced?

Either way, less than two seconds searching on the DM website (under the
terms "UK", "output" and "Covid") gave the link, and here it is:

<https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8722041/UK-economy-grew-6-6-cent-July-coronavirus-rebound-slows.html>

Please note that the point that abelard was making was based purely - as
far as I can see - upon the content of the graph which you have already
seen. You might, of course, want to check the origin of the figures (the
Office for National Statistics).

Please feel free to have another rant about the graph and its origin, or
about anything else which takes your fancy. No-one takes any real
notice, after all.

Buy either way, do you have some sort of definition of "output"
which means that GDP cannot bear that description?

I don't make many spelling mistakes (I'll give you "maneouvre" - which I
hardly ever spell the same twice), but I do make a lot of typing errors
(because I have a very poor typing technique).

Your "loathesome" was a clear spelling error.

When I was a student, I remember being asked to proof-read a friend's
essay before he submitted it. This was before word-processing was widely
available and essays were still written in longhand.

I read it over and advised correction of a surprisingly large number of
spelling errors. He thought it over and decided against it, handing it
in as it was.

He showed it to me after it had been marked. After a number of comments
on the style and content, the tutor had written: "PS: Your spelling is
abyssmal".

A classic case of a little knowledge being a dangerous thing. Very
similar, in fact, to your "loathesome".

It's easy to see why you thought it was right. But it wasn't. The biter,
bit.

This puerile attempt to confuse the age of the post with the age of the

Have you read the relevant article?
If you have, you know the answer.
If you haven't, why not?
Because I don't need to. I was referring to your comments, nothing
else - and they weren't in quotes. Now, about this UK output?
See the graphic referred to.
It certainly was not something I created.
But you knew that all along.
You said 'article'.
And now he says graphic.
Both exist and can be found together in the same place (if you are
prepared to spend 15 seconds looking for them).
Post by Keema's Nan
Which shows just what a slimy little dishonest shit we are dealing with.
Only a graphic (of a graph!) was originally instanced. That is true.
If either half of you wants the derivation of that graph / graphic, it
(the graphic) is associated with an article which is easy to find on the
Daily Mail website.
Bot you will, under both of your identities, prefer to act all prissy
when it is suggested that the information you want is exactly where you
would expect to find it.
what amused me was the economically illiterate swedehead banging on
about the mail while the graph was derived from ons data :-)
you could hardly make it up!
I searched for the graph on the Mail website, but couldn’t find anything
which even came close to that unscientific nonsense; which is why I posted
the one showing national debt as a % of GDP.
I see no one is falling over themselves to congratulate the government on
that one (as accurately predicted by Giles). Maybe the on-message instruction
is to pretend that the increase from 40% to over 100% between 2010 and 2020
results entirely from Covid?
Or, more than likely, to remain totally silent on the subject of the debt
mountain.
Contrary to expectations, it seems that you (both halves of you)
really want to see the article.
Do we, and how have you come to that conclusion?
What do you mean, "we"?
Because you referred to 'both' - whatever that was supposed to mean.
Post by JNugent
Why did you ask about it if you didn't want to read it?
I didn't. I asked you define a term that you used.
It was quoted.
Parroted, you mean, and now you can't defend it.

Post by JNugent
Or are you just saying so in the belief that it doesn't exist and
so cannot be produced?
Either way, less than two seconds searching on the DM website
(under the terms "UK", "output" and "Covid") gave the link, and
<https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8722041/UK-economy-grew-6-6-cent-July-coronavirus-rebound-slows.html>
Please note that the point that abelard was making was based purely
- as far as I can see - upon the content of the graph which you
have already seen. You might, of course, want to check the origin
of the figures (the Office for National Statistics).
You parroted the graph and referred to 'output'. I asked you to
define this output, that is all - and you clearly weren't able to.
GDP figures are not 'output'.
Really? What makes you say that?
Because they clearly aren't. GDP refers simply to transactions where
money changes hands. It is neither necessarily output nor even
productivity. If you believe otherwise, and think it means output,
perhaps you'd care to say why - which was the question I asked you in
the first place.
Post by JNugent
Do you have some sort of definition of "output" which means that GDP
cannot bear that description?
See above.
Post by JNugent
Post by Farmer Giles
Nice try. Now give us your definition that says it can and does?
I was *quoting*.
Parroting.
Post by JNugent
Buy either way, do you have some sort of definition of "output" which
means that GDP cannot bear that description?
If you haven't, what's your problem?
I've given you a definition above. Now how about you giving one that
shows that GDP means output?

Please feel free to have another rant about the graph and its
origin, or about anything else which takes your fancy. No-one takes
any real notice, after all.
No-one takes any notice of this meaningless graph of yours either -
except you and your fellow economic-illiterate Babbelard. And even
you ran away when asked to define aspects of it.
The graph is not "mine".
It is drawn up with figures from the Office for National Sy=tatistics (ONS).
If the figures don't suit your prejudices, take it up with ONS and/or
the Daily Mail.
On the contrary, those meaningless figures suit *your* prejudices
Are they right or wrong?
Neither, they are meaningless.
Post by JNugent
If you think they're wrong, please feel free to take up your complaint
with the office for National Statistics, whose figures they are.

Only a graphic (of a graph!) was originally instanced. That is true.
If either half of you wants the derivation of that graph / graphic, it
(the graphic) is associated with an article which is easy to find on the
Daily Mail website.
Bot you will, under both of your identities, prefer to act all prissy
when it is suggested that the information you want is exactly where you
would expect to find it.
what amused me was the economically illiterate swedehead banging on
about the mail while the graph was derived from ons data :-)
you could hardly make it up!
I searched for the graph on the Mail website, but couldn’t find anything
which even came close to that unscientific nonsense; which is why I posted
the one showing national debt as a % of GDP.
I see no one is falling over themselves to congratulate the government on
that one (as accurately predicted by Giles). Maybe the on-message instruction
is to pretend that the increase from 40% to over 100% between 2010 and 2020
results entirely from Covid?
Or, more than likely, to remain totally silent on the subject of the debt
mountain.
Contrary to expectations, it seems that you (both halves of you)
really want to see the article.
Do we, and how have you come to that conclusion?
What do you mean, "we"?
Because you referred to 'both' - whatever that was supposed to mean.

Please note that the point that abelard was making was based
purely - as far as I can see - upon the content of the graph which
you have already seen. You might, of course, want to check the
origin of the figures (the Office for National Statistics).
You parroted the graph and referred to 'output'. I asked you to
define this output, that is all - and you clearly weren't able to.
GDP figures are not 'output'.
Really? What makes you say that?
Because they clearly aren't. GDP refers simply to transactions where
money changes hands. It is neither necessarily output nor even
productivity. If you believe otherwise, and think it means output,
perhaps you'd care to say why - which was the question I asked you in
the first place.

You said 'article'.
And now he says graphic.
Both exist and can be found together in the same place (if you are
prepared to spend 15 seconds looking for them).

dealing with.
Only a graphic (of a graph!) was originally instanced. That is true.
If either half of you wants the derivation of that graph /
graphic, it
(the graphic) is associated with an article which is easy to find
on the
Daily Mail website.
Bot you will, under both of your identities, prefer to act all prissy
when it is suggested that the information you want is exactly
where you
would expect to find it.
what amused me was the economically illiterate swedehead banging on
about the mail while the graph was derived from ons data :-)
you could hardly make it up!
I searched for the graph on the Mail website, but couldn’t find anything
which even came close to that unscientific nonsense; which is why I posted
the one showing national debt as a % of GDP.
I see no one is falling over themselves to congratulate the government on
that one (as accurately predicted by Giles). Maybe the on-message
instruction
is to pretend that the increase from 40% to over 100% between 2010 and 2020
results entirely from Covid?
Or, more than likely, to remain totally silent on the subject of the debt
mountain.
Contrary to expectations, it seems that you (both halves of you)
really want to see the article.
Do we, and how have you come to that conclusion?
What do you mean, "we"?
Because you referred to 'both' - whatever that was supposed to mean.

Why did you ask about it if you didn't want to read it?
I didn't. I asked you define a term that you used.

Please note that the point that abelard was making was based purely -
as far as I can see - upon the content of the graph which you have
already seen. You might, of course, want to check the origin of the
figures (the Office for National Statistics).
You parroted the graph and referred to 'output'. I asked you to define
this output, that is all - and you clearly weren't able to. GDP
figures are not 'output'.
Really? What makes you say that?
Because they clearly aren't. GDP refers simply to transactions where
money changes hands. It is neither necessarily output nor even
productivity. If you believe otherwise, and think it means output,
perhaps you'd care to say why - which was the question I asked you in
the first place.

Do you have some sort of definition of "output" which means that GDP
cannot bear that description?
Nice try. Now give us your definition that says it can and does?

Please feel free to have another rant about the graph and its origin,
or about anything else which takes your fancy. No-one takes any real
notice, after all.
No-one takes any notice of this meaningless graph of yours either -
except you and your fellow economic-illiterate Babbelard. And even you
ran away when asked to define aspects of it.
The graph is not "mine".
It is drawn up with figures from the Office for National Sy=tatistics (ONS).
If the figures don't suit your prejudices, take it up with ONS and/or
the Daily Mail.
On the contrary, those meaningless figures suit *your* prejudices - and
if you're going to quote and support them you should at least have the
courage to defend them, or admit that you can't. And not resort to your
usual childish games when you get taken to task.

Jeez.

You can see why I kf’d him. I think his nonsense attempt to create an
argument around statements he made initially, proves why usenet life is much
more fun without having to read his drivel every day.

I have no intention of taking any notice of the Daily Mail or ONS

Have you read the relevant article?
If you have, you know the answer.
If you haven't, why not?
Because I don't need to. I was referring to your comments, nothing
else - and they weren't in quotes. Now, about this UK output?
See the graphic referred to.

I agree. That's why I told him initially that his reply 'wouldn't be
worth the candle'. He is a waste of space, and should be ignored - which
I probably will do from now on.

Nice point, well-illustrated.
IOW, the output of the UK, as "low" as it currently is with all of
our current difficulties, was never higher under Labour as it is
today and was usually lower.
Groan...
IOW, the output of the UK, as "low" as it currently is with all of

I'd ask you to define 'output' if I thought your answer would be
worth the candle.
You could always read the article and perhaps enquire of the author.
An 'author' in the Daily Mail - might as well as you or that other idiot
Babbelard.
Sticking a finger in each ear and shouting "La la la la - I can't hear
you" is so much easier than trying to prove that the figures are incorrect.
it is his standard response...he's a socialist, facts don't count

praise be to marx
