[kj] Broken Britain

[Brendan]

My predictions (to reiterate what I've been saying for a long time)

Continued / escalating global social unrest
Decent chance of war, possibly preceded by 'soft' war such as economic /
cyber
Monetary inflation
Continued financial mayhem - no recovery for a long time
Gold / silver to outperform for a long time yet

One thing I try and do is keep an ear to the ground at times like this
when so much is going on,;it's the perfect opportunity to sneak in
unpopular policy or news, such as the further erosion of rights / privacy.

Interesting that current events are progressing to a point where I'm seen
as less of a conspiracy theorist and more of a realist. Lots more where
that came from.
