MOSCOW: Sergei Ryzhov, the chief designer of the light water VVER nuclear reactors built by Russia in foreign countries, including India, was among those killed in the plane crash in Russia that claimed at least 44 lives.Why did the 'mainstream' media not report this? Is it because they've all bought into the climate change agenda?
Russia has built many nuclear power plants abroad with the VVER reactor, including one in Kudankulam in Tamil Nadu.
The whole leadership of the designers units of Russia's state nuclear corporation was killed when a Tu-134 passenger plane crash landed in the northern republic of Karelia.
They were all were going to inspect a local plant in Petrozavodsk for exploring the possibility of placing nuclear industry's orders there.
... to which MPJones replies:... In creating the Euro, they set up conditions for membership no candidate could actually meet, then proceeded to ignore those preconditions. EU leaders arrogantly assumed they could easily homogenize thousands of years of cultural differences between widely disparate communities by fiat. They completely ignored all evidence that countries as different as Denmark and Italy are different because that is the way their peoples made them. Billions of individual choices made by tens of millions of individuals over thousands of years: that is the basis of national and cultural identity. Identity cannot be erased by some clerk in Brussels issuing an edict.
The EU made fatuous rules based on fantasy and immediately broke them. Member nations took advantage, and the whole project will collapse because it was insanity from the start. The best advice is: try not to get caught under falling debris.
... with which kingcanute agrees:Well put.
The way the socialist totalitarians have gone about the treachery is more insidious than anything the crude Nazis could come up with.
We have been spun into a complex and unwanted web of financial, political and economical constraints designed to undermine national independence and ruthlessly pushed through by a fascist construct nobody has ever voted for.
The perpetrators of this criminal, anti-democratic and immoral conspiracy - and that is what the EU is - have used the greed of the bankers, bureaucratic corruption (as evidenced by the unaudited EU budgets) and idealogical naivitee and opportunism to further their disgusting ideas, the creation of a new communist superstate, a fourth Reich dominated by Germany and their French sidekicks.
Unfortunately, gullible - or corrupt? - UK politicians have been supporting this charade, and still are. The reality, speaking of Greece, is very gradually emanating from the impenetrable secrecy of banks and politicians. It seems to emerge that our country, i.e. you and me, the tax payers, are actually not just in the hock to the manageable though huge amount of around £3 billion. British insurers, not bankers, seem to be exposed to losses of up to £24 billion because they have sold credit default swaps. These types of insurance, providing cover in case a debtor defaults on a loan, are interesting because anybody can take them out, not just interested parties. The consequence is that the liabilities of the insurance sector, is basically unlimited in case of a national default (e.g. by Greece), so the losses could be far greater than Greece's national debt in this case.
This is huge, much larger than previously disclosed, and of course doesn't only apply to Greece. This is nuclear.
So, as a private person, what can you do to protect your assets? Whereas it has already for a long time been prudent to consider removing all assets from the banks - taking your money out before it is too late - and investing in assets like gold, antiques, commodities or whatever you like, it is now also necessary to consider removing all assets from insurance companies, cashing in life insurances, etc. It is not certain that the insurance sector will survive the storm to come.
As I have said elsewhere, the government has two overriding tasks to do: get us out of the EU in all urgency; and split up banks so the high street banking is completely insulated from the problems of the City, allowing big banks to go bust without taking down the country.
Furthermore, it is now necessary to do the same for insurance companies - separate speculative underwriting activity from high street insurance business. It is time to focus on the insurance sector!
mpjones, you are quite right, but your penultimate paragraph highlights the problem.
Until the 'mainstream' media comes clean and reports all the known facts, in all their gory detail, supplying honest, in-depth analysis, how are the political classes going to be held to account?
You say the govt has 'two overriding tasks'.. but there is NO WAY they will address the first one unless there is some form of extended revolt by the populace.
As has been said many times, the EU elite have pushed their desired experiment through, assisted in no small part by the Internationalists in Finance, business and the US State Dept, and with the WILLING co-operation of the main UK political parties.
Unless they are in fear of losing power as a GROUP, there is no way they will back-track from this, and the losers will be the people ; predominantly, the taxpayers who will have to keep funding these bail-outs for different countries.
As there seems little sign of the majority in the UK(or Germany for that matter)being too bothered about the whole matter, nothing is likely to change. When these people finally wake up, they will be powerless because the Armed Forces will have been run down so they cannot assist the people and EUROGENDFOR will be ready to enforce an end to protest.
Far too many people are in ostrich mode - they can't - and WON'T see what could happen.
"The Basel supervisors are demanding 7pc core capital while Britain's Independent Commission on Banking has suggested larger banks hold at least 10pc"If the regulators don't even know how much bad debt is currently held by banks which are publicly owned, how will they know whether a bank is holding 10% of what it has lent out?
