"It's official, Moody's have downgraded the UK's credit rating to AA3-
The Tories inherited a credit rating of AAA+ 12 years ago
Our credit rating has now been downgraded 7 TIMES under 12 years of Tories' = The party of "Fiscal Responsibility"

This one seems to have slipped under the radar of the MSM. It is obviously of less importance than Harry's never ending utterances.

It's been a long time since Britain was anywhere near 'great'. Many people would welcome that final nail in the coffin.

Who? Why?

Only SNP supporters I bet Fleurpepper wink

Are we going to have to have the United Kingdom / Great Britain talk again?

I thought the mention of SNP would bring you out volver
It’s uncanny.😂
Nope, no need for your talks thanks, we all know the difference.

I know you did Oreo. I know... (sigh). Its almost like you were doing it on purpose...surely not?

So you know the difference between GB and UK, but not between the SNP supporters and supporters of independence.

P.S As far as optics go a Moodys downrating doesn't look good, but I don't think it will make much difference.

Agree, it’s mainly the optics.

So if most folk really do they must be pretending not to just to try to irritate people.

Aye, that rings true, right enough.

I'm very well aware, thank you. I think you're reading more into my post than you should be.
