Trading in Futures.

A production of 'Cleansed', a play at the National Theatre, has caused 5 people to faint during performances due to the graphic violence.  I would be very happy if I was one of the performers, surely the best review you will ever receive.

Donald Trump continues to persuade Republican voters that he is the man for the top job.  The latest endorsement comes from Nevada with his rivals well down on votes.
I wonder when one of two of them will drop out, because with 5 contenders surely the opposition is being very diluted, and if we are to believe seasoned political commentators, 'Momentum' is a big factor in determining where people put their cross in the box, and he has definitely got momentum now.

Nearer home, the EU debate is big news, which is very disappointing given that we have to put up with this stuff until June 23rd.  I was hoping for it to start slowly and build up, but I get the impression that both sides are firing off their biggest shots first so it should be interesting what they drag out in the latter stages of the debate.  Same old same old I guess.
I'm contemplating voting 'out' even though I am instinctively for staying in, but I'm only contemplating this to see what it would be like, then we would know if the 'in' arguments are valid.  However, I'm a bit perplexed by the 'the unknown' argument to stay in.  For example, I have never known for sure what I am getting for Christmas, but I never turn it down.
