I’m not going to get into the whole immigration argument but theres been population growth of 6m+ (10%+) in 15 years. We’ve built 200k houses a year on average. Even taking kids into consideration people just need to do the maths. Throw in right to buy polices, lack of replacement social...

Looking back now some of the rules were crazy. The zones, not being let in certain venues unless you showed youd had the vaccine even though you could still catch the virus and pass it on, only being allowed to go to pubs if you ordered food etc etc. It’s hilarious but also infuriating and quite...

Probably be bottom of my list of PM and health secretary combos I’d want in a global pandemic/huge health emergency but there’s a load of arse covering, group think and finger pointing going on I want to know Have we sorted out pandemic planning and supply chains for a future pandemic ...

First the girl guides only allowing girls to join and now female Olympians only having to compete against other females. Crazy times

Surely they’re trolling him, ‘America First’ award when he’s just started the type of war he promised his base that he wouldn’t

Nothing to do with Streeting. Pay review board suggested 3.5% pay rise for docs which goverment accepted. Resident doctors/BMA decided that warranted going on strike again even though they’ve had about 30% pay rise over the past 3 years, during which they’ve also been on strike numerous times...

If you’re refinancing the debt you have to pay the higher rates, which is why I mentioned the fact that the U.S. apparently needs to refinance something like $9trn/one quarter of their $37trn debt this year. Just a 0.5% increase equates to around $50bn extra a year interest. A lot of this debt...

😂

To be fair I misspell and typo all the time but then again I’m not the leader of the free world posting in the middle of a war

All I could think is he can’t even spell ‘which’

Ps many far more intelligent people than me think this possibly de-escalation has been forced by bond yields spiking. US 2 year had gone back over 4% and 10 yr had gone from 3.9% to 4.5% in the past 2 weeks. Idiots like Polanski will have people believe that markets/yields don’t matter, they do...

FTSE was down 2.25% and now up 0.4% in 5 mins. Oil which was up 3% now down 10%. Crazy times

Said at the start of the conflict this was the most bizarre move by Trump. ‘America first’ policy was suddenly ignored, petrol prices which were down significantly since he became president are now spiking and interest rates which were heading in the right direction and needed due to US $37trn...
