Nope, "The Gays" it is, according to the Torygraph:https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2022/05/29/gays-new-revelations-carrie-johnson-gathering-boris-birthday/I mean, call your friends whatever shit you're all okay with, but she also apparently kept calling the aides that even though some of them were very uncomfortable with it. Top tip: it's not cute and ironic when it's making people cringe. Especially not when they're your husband's staff and can't tell you to piss off.
In case anyone else would enjoy watching Johnson getting boo-ed by the crowd at St Paul's:https://twitter.com/vicderbyshire/status/1532660093489119233And on the way out, too:https://twitter.com/alexandrakuri/status/1532722094752030720
The Economist pulling no punches on the outlook for the U.K. in today’s editorial:“The idea that Britain has a growth problem is not new. But few realise how deep a hole it is in. Whereas average annual gdp growth over the decade preceding the global financial crisis of 2007-09 was 2.7%, the new normal is now closer to just 1.7%…“The oecd predicts that next year gdp in Britain will be stagnant. Official forecasts show that real take-home pay will be lower in five years than it is today, eaten away by higher taxes and consumer-price inflation that, at 9%, is the highest among big rich economies.”https://archive.ph/2022.06.09-133233/https://www.economist.com/leaders/2022/06/09/low-economic-growth-is-a-slow-burning-crisis-for-britain
Pete - what’s your source for the suggested US interest rate upper bound?
Quote from: seankenny on Yesterday at 03:50:49 pmPete - what’s your source for the suggested US interest rate upper bound?Written in autumn 2011 as a commentary on the policies following the global financial crash and a warning of where they might take the economy. Republished spring of this year.https://www.nationalaffairs.com/publications/detail/inflation-and-debtIt doesn't go into details of the upper bound. I've read that elsewhere but struggling to find the source.
Thanks… but I’m honestly not going to watch a video about this sort of thing, prefer to read it, it’s just too time consuming to wade through a video. Also my heckles are raised by a crypto dude who I invariably assume is shilling. Sorry!Edit: realise that comes across a bit arsey, but I struggle with video as a medium for putting across information that would be better written.
Unfortunately, I suspect the outcome suits them just fine: now they can whip up fury at the "lefty lawyers" and the European convention on human rights for blocking their wonderful plan to forcibly ship torture survivors and refugee children halfway across the world.Not that it wouldn't also suit them just fine if they'd succeeded and got some nice sadistic punishment of refugees to feed the Daily Mail.It's all symbolic either way, "red meat" for the culture wars. The human beings who might get chewed up in the meat grinder are just props for them.
