Balls thanks Osborne for advance notice of the statement 'but not its contents'. Gracious me, surely Chancellor didn't think he'd leak it!—

He is Canadian.
Do we have zero talent in this country?
Canada did a lot better than the UK in avoiding the crash.
errrrrr and that has nothing, if anything to do with mark carney.
Did I run Canada?
Since it is still a functioning nation, clearly not.
Carney is ex-Goldman Sachs.
The UK is fucked.
Bat, plus ca change. Nuffsed.
Other than him being Governor at the Bank of Canada?
Bog bog MKM2 you mindless t_sser!
Yes, but it’s merely delayed; the Canadian hosing bubble is about to burst bringing their economy in to line with the rest and depleting the middle classes.
At the Old Lady, yes.
Great choice, they obviously feared the truth about Tucker’s involvement in the Barclays Libor affair coming out when he was in office, as it will.
no, we don’t have zero talent…
but finding someone talented that hasn’t been indoctrinated by left-wing economic policy, isn’t some inside-man who has more to gain by being incompetent than showing up their predecessors incase they get their own mess caught out or been through the Common Purpose machine seems to be getting rather difficult these days in the UK.
Let’s hope this turns out to be a wise move by the Chancellor…
I sincerely hope it is a wise move, trouble is I have little faith.
Yes only a xenophobe could object.
HH: One thing that struck me was he (Mark Carney) was not part of the Status Quo who run the BOE. I think Osborne may have given a very good reason to cull the civil service at the treasurery. This could mean war, the CC don’t like it uphem. Who knows this could start a re-think of other Government Departments. We live in hope!
Instead he’s been indoctrinated by Goldman Sachs, not sure which is worse
Is he perchance also a building burgher?
Almost Kebab, thanks to 13 years of Labour education.
Not a matter of talent – merely of selecting the right Gauleiter. And now we have one! Like Greece. Like Italy.
Bloody immigrants! Coming over here! Taking our jobs!
he chairs g20 instability board.
Not necessarily
But he s been hired to bring fellow canucks leonard cohen and allison crow over here so they can all three. Sing hallelujah on a sunday morning in the threadneedle street internal. Gardens
Carneys have small hands, you cannot trust them.
Are you suggesting he is not honest? Surely a requirement of the job. Anyone do a CRB on him……….. oops I forgot, we only check our own systems
Is he a UKIP member?
Racist bigot, hand over yer kids!
Carney is. Surname of irish descent
Does that mean we are going to. Join the punt zone ??
Ma car nee ds a service.
Great news, new governer,Martha Carney
Is that good, bad, indifferent or as you were?
Mark Carney, the new Governor of the Bank of England, is also former head of sovereign risk at Goldman Sachs
Hmmmmm
They seem to have a strangle-hold on the political windpipe throughout the western world.

Shalom.

said the muppet.
Well they are only as bad as Common Purpose with their stranglehold on the UK hierarchy. Shitty Vadera who advised BrownBalls so well was the GS fixer over here.
Robert Peston,another Common Purpose twat, announced three weeks ago the job was going to Paul Tucker.
So that explains why the Pound tanked (again). Can’t somebody please lock him in a cupboard and accidentally lose the key?
the golden rule.
the gold man will always be the person to sack you.
god.man.sacks.
they have a gob alright.
they think customers are trossers.
Ooh he’s hunky!
Twinkle twinkle
Little rectum
Big cocks cum
When you least expect em
But will he be ethical like me?
Is he Church of England ? is it not a requirement of the Bank of England?
can he walk on water ?
Never bet on a sure-fire tip from Pesto………
Is he the son of FRED???? The one that had an Army?
That was Fred Karno.

The present governer at the bank of England,Merve the swerve,,not me gov…king,who oversaw the banks during the,…”I didn,t see it coming”, financial meltdown,costing UK taxpayers £66 billion,and more,has been praised to the rafters by George Osborne for his outstanding work during a difficult period.Am i missing something,or is that true.!!!!
Did you actually attend school at all?
Nice to know it winds you up.Much more to follow.Watch this space.
Just reverse everything they say and you will be nearer the truth !!

He sounds like one of those career wan*kers, always on the up, but does very little to warrant it.
He is supposed to be the current Bank of Canada boss, under a 7 year term starting 2008. Already broken that contract, served only 5 years, to take the BoE job.
And now its reported the BoE job has been given to mark under a 5 year contract, not 8 as originally advertised.
CLEARLY – HE IS ONE OF THOSE 5 YEAR PLAN TYPE WAN*KERS
Well if Labour Troll Crontrol are under orders to discredit him, he must be good.
Not serving his entire term !!!!! What next starting an illegal war?
nah, get richquick Bliar has now set his eyes higher.
he wants to sort god out.
earthly challenges.
are no challenge.
the man needs to be stretched.
..preferably on the rack.
is he related to deutsche mark?
He has two brothers No and Skid, both at McGill Uni reading ‘comics’
Another fucking immigrant.
Is he a member of the religion of peace?
peace is there for the taking
We’re all bloody well doomed I tell you.
George Osborne has no Plan B,neither do I !
There has never been time to “short” the FTSE & Wall Street.
Help yourself to some Christmas spending money,go no,you know you want to.
Excellent call George,Wall Street is heading for another 100 point drop !!!

Worst possible choice, obvious stitch up, ex vampire squid bankster coming over here to screw us all forever.
Perhaps we should all now emigrate to Canada. Lots of empty space over there to open a barber shop.
How is it none of these people that are credited (or should that be debited?) with being financial experts turn out to be not, Erm, financial experts, as opposed to them all being excelent personal financial experts in the very personal sense of the word personal.
Double negative, substitute “all of the” in first line.
Hope he hasn’t had any dealings with the ICFR, Gorgon McDoom’s ‘think tank’.
That would be a ‘sink tank’.
..or a sith tank?
This is the equivalent of giving an American control of our nuclear weapons …..er….hang on a minute
Who?
Triple Dip on the way !!!!!!!!!!
Carney was 13 years with Goldman Sachs but does seem to come with a good CV .
He is though under contract with Bank of Canada until October 2014 and appears too to have another contract with the Financial Stability Board going beyond 2013 .
Osborne has failed to clarify what is going on here .
Interestingly the appointment will be for five years. When in Opposition Cameron said he favoured 5 year contracts which could be renewed only once .
If With British Government interference the Governor of the Bank of Canada can have his contract sprung then why was this tactic not followed with King in whom Cameron has not had much confidence .
On balance a good appointment unless he gets too paly with his appointees.
Seems the transfer window does not open for a few months yet. Anyone know who his agent is or what the fee was?
Or, more to the point, since Mark claims he did not apply for the job, exactly who it was that head-hunted him?
It’s almost as if…it’s a worldwide criminal syndicate
politics = criminal (synonym)
Three weeks ago Carney was telling Canadians that after two years of historically low interest rates there was no economic growth because of problems in the global economy .
Its the same old song.
Interest rates are low so that sticky-fingered bankers do not have to give savers anything back in return for borrowing their cash. Time the plebs worked this simple con trick out for themselves.

“Carney will apply for British citizen in the normal way “with no special favours,” Osborne says.”
Osborne said “He will apply for British citizenship once he is here” !
Now i always thought “Johnny Foreigner ” had to apply for visa’s and citizenship before they traveled here ?
Hmmmmmmmm !
Not all foreigners need visas; some countries are exempt.
However, he will need a work permit (which usually has to be obtained before travelling) plus I always thought there was a minimum residence time (5 or 7 years?) required before being able to apply for citizenship, but I have not kept up with the constant changes to immigration law for a while now.
JK and her King’s Cross from north,
OHH, this has worked! Rowling was not about the best male and female prostitutes that were aboding in the eighties at King’s Cross between the lines, thatcher perves, you ready on a friday afternoon to get early to pick the best to give them a good paid weekend, you fucking tory BBC perves.
Couldn’t care less about the fact he is a Canadian (surprised they didn’t find some Eurozealot in line with the demands of the Brussels Masters), what does trouble me is that anyone who has even stepped inside a Goldman office is toxic.
just watched mark carney’s august (?) interview with zena badawi on hardtalk and he comes over well and is obviously right on top of the international banking issues…his views on the euro are pragmatic and he clearly sees the Uk has an advantage in controlling its own economic levers including QE which he views as a stable and controlled way of funding growth. His personal interviewing manner is easy open and informed .. his appointment is
credible and well made..
The fact that his role in shaping the global regulation of the banking system comes with him is a coup for the home of banking.
You are Mark Carney and I claim my £5 (CA$7.89)

Delivered in 30 minutes or less depending on how quickly the payment can be transferred from the Cayman Islands to Jersey, via Luxembourg and Ireland, then through Switzerland,Belize and the Isle of Man.
Why choose the Head of the Bank of Canada for that interview rather than any other possibility? Did the Beeb know something we did not a few months ago? Must have been tipped off by the Pest.
By the way, her name is Zainab – must be Indian or Arabic or something. Not a name usually associated with Balham.
So we have a white English speaking Crown Subject applying for a British passport and residency to do a job. Yet if he had been a Pole, Rumanian, Bulgarian, etc. etc. he could have walked straight in.
As we British are all Crown Subjects he can’t apply to be a citizen can he.
trust my colleague to spoil the party

How many people do you know who apply for UK citizenship and prefer to rent out rather than sell their main residence in Ottowa ?
The point is the guy is a Banker and also a political animal. He wants to be Prime Minister of Canada .
He has had a good and some would say lucky run as Bank Governor . He is getting out with his reputation high . He does not want to take on Trudeau just now .
There is talk of a housing bubble to explode . A high exchange rate is seen as reducing exports . Constantly low interest rates have not led to economic growth .
The guy has been handpicked to write those monthly letters to the Chancellor i.e. figures are bad because of problems in our overseas markets .
His reputation for Bank supervision is a little hyped because the structures in Canada were in place before the current crisis . What you get is his experience but at least he is a new broom .
It is now being reported that there is a social link between Eton boy and this Canadian Banker .
Things could turn nasty .
