Let the Chinese languish in the 18th century industries of chips, smartphones, computers and personal electronics - safe behind the tariff wall, the US shall regain superpower status by dominanting the jobs of the future: little paper napkin and sock manufacturing.

The UK exports £360bn of goods to the EU, on which we now struggle with big non tariff barriers, compared to £60bn to the US. Imagine looking at this sh1tshow and thinking it vindicates Brexit in any way.

I think this the first time Brexit has appeared as an attack line in a major English speaking political campaign.

Was watching the big short again last night (great movie) and it made me think for all the US bangs on about how much they pay for defence, what about their country destroying all our economies which have never really recovered. Yep think you owe us reparations!!

Hand over all the power plants in your country to the US and 50% of your minerals and we will help broker a peace deal where you give up a big chunk of your country to Putin, among other things.

Just spent day reading about the collapse of the British car industry. The lack of vision, the managerial incompetence, the strategic insularity, the complacent reliance on ‘world-class’ marques, the constant short-termism, bad labour relations. And I thought: yup, there go our universities too.

New from me - is it possible we are actually at peak populism? This post is an exercise in working through a scenario - I may very well be wrong. But also, outside of America, I think something is shifting. Because of America. 1/n benansell.substack.com/p/twilight-o...

So no reports of pensioners dying over the winter because they didn’t have the WFA and now no evidence that state schools are being overwhelmed with private school pupils due to VAT. Who would have thought?!
