The Greeks KEEP their Euro Money - Greek Crisis


Lets Get Real:

The Greeks can see that the Ship that is Greece is heading for the rocks, when you have a failed economy with no money there are wild times to face.   Thus expect capital controls over money being taken out of Greece, expect Greeks to hide their money from the government, civil unrest could break out between the left and right, and the poor and rich. Greece is a classic example of a State that has a welfare system and how that has sunk the Country.   Poor Greeks, Poor Greeks. 

Greeks GET YOUR CASH NOW! - Greek Crisis


Lets Get Real:

GREEKS GET YOUR MONEY OUT NOW!, If your on holiday in Greece, make sure you have plenty of cash for the week, the banks could be closed next week, what ever happens is not going to be good, of course the EU could try to throw this in to the long grass, just give enough for Greece to get along for a month or two before we are back here again, Greece was in crisis in 2010 before the UK election and now five years to the month we have the same problem.   Suggestion, if you going to Greece on holiday try to change, the Country could fall apart and fast.   People without money do wild things. 

5 Minutes Past Midnight for the Greek Economy - Greek Crisis


Lets Get Real:

The question is EU serious about the Euro, if it is as weak as the Greek PM feels it is good that its starts its decline and put in the failure box.   The question is will the rich Countries, such as Germany and France allow the Euro to fail, but if they grant the request of the Greeks, every other Country in trouble will be demanding that the German tax payer pays for the political promises of the left.   The Euro was a political idea that has failed, when something fails you accept it and move on, if the EU can not change with events it will fall like the Euro.   Who will pay the bills of the Greeks?.

Greeks GET their MONEY out of Greek Banks - Greek Crisis


Lets Get Real:

The people are making their voice clear to the government in Athens and to the EU, they see the cliff and do not want to be taken down that cliff by their own government.    Thus they are taking their money and running, one has to wonder how long before capital controls are placed in Greece to prevent people taking out their euros before Greece returns to its natural currency.   The EU has to be firm with Greece or otherwise Italy and Spain will be next in trouble, never mind the Irish.   The Greeks have lived off the EU for long enough, time for them to get some self respect back and leave the Euro, they should be able to stay in the EU, of course the question that has to be asked do the Greeks really want to be tied to EU.  Of course the Knight in shinning might come and rescue Greece, this Knight would be ex KGB in the form of President Putin, the Russians want to split Greece from NATO and EU, they are playing a skilled game, while the Greeks whistle and the EU has another meeting.

How close can Hillary Clinton be to the Oval Office - 2016 Election


Lets Get Real:

IF Hillary Clinton is going to be President she can not run as Obama's third term or even a third term for Bill Clinton,  the US voter looks to the future, as the present economic state in the US is not that great.   Thus HRC will have to build a campaign around her, but she would be making a mistake IF just talks about gender issues, it does not matter if your a man or woman you are still concerned about the economic well being of the Country, you still have to meet your bills at the end of the week or month.    It seems that HRC is using the Obama playbook from 08/12, the problem is that HRC is not Obama, she is not that good on the campaign trail, if HRC was wise she would go to the right, that is were the voter is, it does not matter what the elite left thing or even the uber liberal NYT.   HRC can not win if she is running for someone else, or if she just runs as a woman. 


The Labour Leadership Fight - Post 2015 Election


Lets Get Real:

This is the kind of new leader the Labour Party needs, Liz Kendal is saying if that she proves not up to the job then the Labour Party should have the ability to get rid of a poor leader.   The failure to remove Gordon Brown and Ed Miliband in their time has cost the Labour Party two general elections, it has been said that the Conservatives are more ruthless when it comes to their leaders, if a leader is poor then the Conservative replace that leader, while the Labour Party goes over a cliff with its leader.   This move by Liz Kendall could very well make her the new Labour Leader, Kendall has proven she has skills on TV and is at the centre ground of the Labour Party even on the right.    It will be interesting to see if Labour wants to win the 2020 election, if Kendall is not elected expect another general election defeat in 2020. 




NATO vs. Russia - New Cold War 11


Lets Get Real:

At least the West is showing a strong reaction to the actions of Russia in East Ukraine and the Crimea, the Russian Regime under Putin has shown the worse aspects of the old USSR.   The West has to be firm and clear with President Putin, as long as he breaks international law the West will carry on with a strong defence and also a defence of Eastern Europe against the threat from Russia.   The new Cold War has started, one just hopes that it does not get too hot in the future.
