Incredibly corrupting role he has now attained: his business is built on being β€œin the know” so he can influence people - and he is trading that influence (which govt craves) for insider status (which he needs to be in the know).
"I had a list of seven or eight things that I suggested to the Chancellor and I've been pretty gobsmacked that five of them were in the budget." Martin Lewis, Founder of Money Saving Expert, reacts to Chancellor John Healey's first budget. #Newsnight

Tory MP texts: deckchairs, Titanic, re-arranging. I slink out the building. The Red Lion is emptier than usual; the few who’ve made the daring escape sit with eyes glued to their phones. Rather ominously there’s a problem with one of the handpumps…

When I'm bored and run out of xeet ideas I'll go to VB Knives page because you know without doubt that he's posted something worth ridiculing in the past 24 hours.

"Cookin' in the Rio favelas, cookin' in Campania, heck it's all the same to me"
The Favela is just traditional Mediterranean urbanism. Maybe someday they will paint all the houses the same color and open some tourist hotels, etc.

"Heck the food ain't so good and not to mention the weather, but man, this city keeps on citying."
london is a city that dares to ask the question: what if there was a world-class capital with bad weather, high cost of living, mediocre food and miserable people? nevertheless, it persists

"visa auctions"
No, nobody should ever be β€œkinda racist”. Selecting migrants for skin colour would be morally repugnant. Britain should secure its borders, reform its asylum system from scratch, and select its economic migrants for high wages, eg with visa auctions.

AI probably forces the hand of pro-migration politicians into significant restrictionism, at least in the short term. MSFT news yesterday is the latest example of this, you can't have hundreds of thousands arriving as the largest unemployment event in history is occurring.

Conversely, if you come out the other side with Amodei Abundance the anti-camp need to plan for that because a lot of the current winning arguments, Facts & Logic etc, will no longer hold. It becomes a civilizational question again.

There is a reasonable scenario in the 2029 debates of Burnham being as restrictionist as Farage (or Kemi) because 20% of the population have lost or are losing jobs. I'm not sure who is thinking about this, to type it you feel a Bit Bonkers. 2029 might be a bit early.

"They're calling me a squirrel on the internet again, son." "Sorry to hear that dad. Weekend plans?" "Lets grow our stash of peanuts. A trip to various local supermarkets. We can bury them around the kitchen, the garden if we must, other people's driveways."

An also hilarious implication that the Katwala household don't have food for three days and a "stockpile" solves this.
