Desperate wishful thinking from Brexittears, they really think companies are going to make long term plans based on the unpredictable whims of a madman? Anyway, not sure which companies are supposed to be interested? Pharma? They have Ireland, Auto? They have US production

Since Jackson Hinkle is blowing up on twitter again, I may as well share a secret with you. He is banned from travelling to the E.U. Turns out if you have an E.U passport and collect the evidence that a non-E.U citizen promotes extremism, you can request your government ban them from entry to Europe

Ultimately Kemi Badenoch is someone who a) claimed that a careers advisor who steered her away from studying medicine did so because they thought “black kids” weren’t academic b) didn’t get the grades to study medicine yet c) was rewarded by the Tory party for slagging off that careers advisor.

Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet. ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

An apology. Yesterday, I suggested on this site that sooner or later, Reform's new chairman, David Bull, would make an absolute turnip of himself. I was wrong. There was no "later" to it.

Perfect Reform material 😖: George Cottrell spent 8 months in prison in US in 2016-17 after being accused of offering money-laundering services on dark web. He did time for a single count of wire fraud after 20 other charges were dropped as part of a plea deal. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Bulgaria joins the €zone from 1.01.2026. Currently, Bulgaria pays 3.85% on their debt vs UK 4.75%. Bulgaria’s interest rate is expected to decrease, maybe as low as Croatia’s 3.05%. Maybe it’s a lesson for Britain here. www.ft.com/content/cfe4...

This is one of the incredibly useful ways the European Investment Bank (EIB) works. By counter-guaranteeing bank guarantees, it unlocks far more money for necessary investments. Unfortunately, Brexiters said we didn't need this kind of help and so we can no longer benefit from it. #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

And U.K. exiting the European Investment Bank has cut UK infrastructure investments to the bone

submitted 18 days ago • 2 comments

Britain pays 4.75% on our debt. If we want to invest in infrastructure that’s what we pay. The chancellor says we can’t invest too much. But I say we can. We can rejoin the European Investment Bank where we borrowed at 2-3% for our infrastructure investments such as Cross Rail.

Wilders totaal mislukt! Niets gepresteerd. Alleen geblèr, gejank, broddelwerk en symboolpolitiek. Ontregelen ja. Regeren nee. Voor de tweede keer weggelopen. Uit onmacht: Wat resteert, is de onthutsende conclusie: veel bombarie, nul professionaliteit! Wat een blamage. Nederland verdient beter
