I was expressing similar feelings the other day & got the whole "Oh here we go, blame the rich/politics of envy/they'll all leave" response.

It's amazing how conditioned people are to reject anything that isn't "punching down" as completely unrealistic even though punching down has never worked. 🤷‍♂️
"The politicians basically serve the rich, the wealthy, and their self-interest."

Listen to this man in Nigel Farage's constituency.

Repulsive that millionaire Farage who grifts his arse off on side gigs while taking a salary from the state for the MP job he fails to do, should target those who earn the least, threatening to lower NMW, scrap improvements to workers’ rights, enable discrimination and tear up the welfare safety net

The big divide in Britain today is between working people and the privately educated, rich, greedy, tax-dodging, selfish, grifting gobshites who try to manipulate working people by pretending to give a shit about them.

The Telegraph just gave a convicted criminal a two-page spread to explain why he's pumping £4 million into Reform UK. They tucked his criminal record away in the small print. So as a former financial crime specialist I’ll do their job for them👇

NEW: Mandelson just sent a memo to UK newspapers via the press watchdog demanding they stop publishing his links to Epstein.

He cited clauses in the Editors code, designed to protect grieving families.

The memo was NOT to be published.

The National just said ‘fuck that’ & published it in full 👏

This is pretty much the only post anyone should need to understand that Farage is a traitor, a conman and a populist simpleton who must *never* be given power.

It's got zero to do with negotiation or indeed with any sense of logic. The tariff rates are the product of minds which are functionally insane, doing fantasy mathematics at scale. We're all lost in a hall of mirrors pretending that a compass will help us find our way out.
Also, it's got nothing to do with anything our government has done. It's a mathematical consequence of the mad formula they're using as we have a trade deficit.

Other countries that sucked up (like Japan or Vietnam) got screwed by the formula.
Intrigued by this narrative that Britain has done well here.

-10% is still v significant.
-We're a big exporter of cars to the US which will be subject to 25%. Terrible for UK auto industry.
-Even if we get a deal we can't avoid the major economic shock to global trade overall.

Given that just 4.25% of the world's population lives in the United States of America this might be the moment for the 95.75% of the rest of us to leave them to it.

Many overseas markets that the UK could be focusing on for example - you know like the fucking enormous one on our doorstep.

These media figures use their positions of influence and privilege to first peddle their damaging right wing rhetoric and then get to publicly absolve themselves and rewrite history when the rottenness of their beliefs is exposed.

We must never allow them their cynical revisionism.
