Sick to the back teeth of Oligarchs. We need to see some decency and fairness in Society. These people can never spend their wealth, they are just drains on Society.

Look - I can’t afford all your substacks. I have a budget and I have to prioritise my expenditure. That’s it …

Next we are going to see Farage ‘going to church’ in Clacton. Please spare us from this nonsense. He will be singing “Little donkey” FFS.

Has Farage denounced any of his paedophile associates (seemingly the largest in the World) in the US as volubly as he has denounced grooming gangs in the UK ?

However depressing the thought of a Farage Government - the truth is it would be chaos. He has all these idiotic people with no clue how to run a bath let alone a Country. He also has his thugs who he would have to immediately control. The bond markets would be tricky - you get what you voted for.

Farage now seems to be too scared to be in front of the cameras. Is that because he is a Russian stooge, who would sell out Ukraine and the UK to line his own pockets?

OK let’s imagine I am an Oligarch and I live in one dimension and I produce something that people want to buy - let’s say e.g. a car. So if I pay the people who produce my car insufficient wages that they can’t afford my car or it’s petrol or insurance then I have completely obliterated my wealth.

Starmer should develop some optimism - after all there are more ways than one of skinning a pig.

You know the Christmas Party lunchtime date with your mates who you have known for twenty years or so- been to their weddings and then the heating doesn’t work - you do the adjust stuff and the dial turns past ‘red’ - well welcome to my World. Do I turn off the boiler and bleed the radiators ?

This is a bit soul destroying but it’s a fair representation of where we are in the UK v our European neighbours.

Is the tide turning? New post on my Brexit & Brexitism Blog. Renewed talk of a customs union may well come to nothing, but rapidly changing geo-politics mean the UK needs urgently to face up to the failure of the entire Brexit ‘strategy’: chrisgreybrexitblog.blogspot.com/2025/12/is-t...

Seem to be a lot of nasty, dirty old men in the News who are way past due their just desserts.

When on earth does the Labour Party grasp that the Media can influence politics ? At what point do they say enough of greed and evil ?

Great coverage on Regime's foreign policy to wreck our European alliances, fu*k UKR along w/EU &NATO, & align w/Russia. Red flags apparent in Witkoff/Kushner/transnat'l crime networks deals to push Putin's demands on UKR. Kleptocracies United. Treason Exemplified.

Europe Sounds the Alarm as the United States Sides With Putin
While Russian drones target NATO allies and Ukraine’s president, Trump’s America abandons its commitments and openly embraces a strategy that weakens Europe and empowers the Kremlin.

Maybe the lesson Europe needs to learn is that Countries don’t start wars with a block which has the most up to date firepower.

Seemingly - Trump says he is going to war with Europe.
December 11, 2025 at 4:27 PM
Trump is so last Century.

Just needs some intelligence people to deal with with Trump. FGS. Has Europe completely lost the plot ?

At what point is it optimal for the planet when wealth distribution is skewed in favour of an elite ?
December 10, 2025 at 7:09 PM
I do get the impression with Starmer that he is somehow “ In the know” and the electorate are irrelevant. So they are treated with contempt. Far better to have an honest discussion.

The World has moved on from outdated US armaments.

What is Musk or Zuckerberg, Trump etc. going to do if the EU sort out this Media disinformation ?
