It's the 10th anniversary of the dumbest moment in modern British history so let's celebrate some of the idiots who made it happen. First up ... Jacob Rees-Mogg and his promise of cheap food and wine... In fact food prices have increased some 12% as a direct result of Brexit (LSE) 1/5



Brexit will REDUCE food,
wine and clothes costs
by 20% - Rees-Mogg
fires back at Remainers

This is one of the most damning videos I’ve ever watched of Farage. He essentially admits being racist at school - only says he didn’t do it “with intent”. The quiver in his voice at the end - he knows he can’t squirm out of this one.

Everything on our news agenda is being driven by a corrupted disinformation machine, run by a billionaire who sponsors Tommy Robinson and who keeps trying to foment civil war in the UK. And incredibly our MPs & news providers stay there. THAT is the problem. Not some bad editing choice on the BBC.

It’s fine to just say you’re not a Rayner fan, you don’t like the CGT/stamp duty issues she’s been involved in and you’d like her removed. We don’t need to make up stuff about her having illicit earnings.

If they’re basing themselves in the south then plenty of people earning £160k will be in million pound houses because that’s what they cost. It’s 5x her income so pretty typical? Is there any evidence she’s taking cash for access?

Ryan McFarlane @gloves1878.bsky.social · 03/09/2025
She’s on £160k, has a mortgage, has made significant property gains, and was a recipient in a major medical negligence case. The register of MPs interests shows she’s not a huge earner and most of her donations are clearly for campaigning. Is there any evidence she’s been taking cash for influence?

Just a reminder that an individual's national insurance payments do not fund their State pension. The average person's national insurance payments cover about half the cost of their state pension:

All looks very admirable but with the post-Truss lending situation breathing down our backs you’ve never explained how you’ll pay for it. Sadly that is an actual pertinent question. Everyone knows Starmer and Reeves have fucked up but that’s because they’re deeply grounded in reality.

Is it though? The chancer working three jobs is of interest but an assault on home working that doesn’t explain that the current and previous governments are reducing the size of the estate and office space is missing vital context. Oh and why to Tufton Street for a quote?

I think the parking restrictions are being well overdone, but this isn’t his lookout. It’s Liverpool City Council. He isn’t the Mayor of that, despite his title. It’s the council we should be directing this at.

Basically consumers have less money so firms can’t charge them more.

Ryan McFarlane @gloves1878.bsky.social · 06/02/2025
Yes, basically. Higher rates leave borrowers with less cash to spend and discourages further borrowing so there is less demand chasing the same supply of stuff and makes raising prices more difficult. Suppliers can’t raise prices without seeing demand drop off. It should cause inflation to slow.

Ryan McFarlane @gloves1878.bsky.social · 06/02/2025
There are winners and losers (net borrowers and net savers) but inflation is predicted to remain above target so ordinarily the bank might be looking to hike rates. They don’t feel they can do that because of the very gloomy growth figures and they’re trying not to choke off demand in the economy.

Under the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act 2022 a whole life order can only be given to someone who was aged 18 or over when they committed the crime. Lobby for a change in the law by all means but just remember that when the usual suspects pretend to be outraged later today.

As if we needed any more evidence of Pearson’s grimness. She would rather those families had to endure a horrific trial so she could have some more conspiracy nonsense to spout. It is beggars belief that she is employed as a ‘journalist.’
