I was not lying, as you put it PP. A person I met through a friend of my wife told me, a bit like you, that he made money in stocks and shares and bitcoins. He approached me later to suggest we did something together 50/50 and he would show me how he does it. Anyway, he wanted access to my computer which I refused so it kind of went askew and he ended up, for some reason, putting half of my investment, 250 euros, into a trading account for me. He gave me the other half back. Why he chose this company I have no idea. I kept getting phone calls and promises of making it rich, sound familiar, so I quickly lost confidence and have applied for my money back. Apparently it takes 20 days. At the moment my account is up to 306 euros.
If it is not returned I will go through my bank and if that fails I will go through the small claims court. Not a happy storey. My advice to you is 'do not listen to people you don't know who make outlandish claims'. |

I think when the person involved is someone you know, albeit loosely it isn't the same. However, it will teach me to be more careful. Not that I have lost anything yet.
I know you have probably never been scammed or even had a losing bet PP. But there you. Some of us are human. |

Tuesday 26 May 2020 10:27 am Boris Johnson’s approval rating has dropped to -1% after he refused to sack Dominic Cummings for driving to Durham during lockdown. According to Savanta, a coronavirus data tracker which looks at how the UK population is responding to the pandemic, the Prime Minister’s rating was previously +19% just four days ago. It states that the overall government approval rate is now at -2%, having dropped 16 points in a day. Johnson’s approval rating is now also the lowest of the individual’s rated, with Health Secretary Matt Hancock’s the second lowest at 4%. Mr Cummings’ rating has not been tracked. Labour leader Keir Starmer’s approval rating lifted to 12% on Monday, while Chancellor Rishi Sunak dropped from 35% four days ago to 20%. |

The dates to remember : 31st January 2020. We LEFT the EU.
The next date to remember: 31st December 2020. We leave with or without a deal. Anything else is just a sideshow to keep the REMAINERS hanging on the hook.  |

Sturgeon better at handling pandemic than Boris (by a mile) according to new polling by Ipsos Mori. |

@ScotSkye The Scottish govt have made mistakes but the difference seems to be that they accept that some things have not gone well and appear to be trying to learn from it. That‘s why many Scottish people believe the govt has handled it well. A reasonable summary that likely captures the sentiment of those who participated in the poll. |

Just had a look at that yougov poll and the SNP are at 54% in Scotland, with the tories down to 20%. If that was repeated at a general election, it would be back to an almost clean sweep of Scottish seats for SNP.
