You have irritated the shit out of them - ergo, they are now taking you seriously.

Well, there is the super-duper rich or we could go for welfare - those at the bottom of the pile.

Crap: The bank’s fees for arranging or servicing a mortgage could be subject to VAT. What wouldn’t be taxed is the interest itself. Interest isn’t a service fee; it’s considered payment for the use of money.

I checked with ChatGPT if the Trump dump was real. After careful consideration it said:
✅ Yes: Trump posted the video himself (so it’s “real” in that sense).
❗ But: The act shown—dropping feces/sludge from a jet onto Americans—is fictional and generated by AI, not an actual event that happened.

Alan Johnson is a good man, but not sure I can read yet another biography of Harold - Ben Pimlott & Nick Thomas-Symonds. Both very good indeed.

Steve Crowther @clueless13.substack.com · 19d

Can't wait.

Steve Crowther @clueless13.substack.com · 19d

I'm in love...

Steve Crowther @clueless13.substack.com · 19d

It'll be dropping on our mat soon after that then.

Back Zack? Sticking with the LP, never let me down...
