  1. I want in. Of opting out, I mean. Opting out of England, I mean. Yeah!

  9. I'm fine. It's fine. We're fine. Everything's fine...

  10.  @formworksucks  For sure. The future is high-tech, high-spec, innovative and green. We're good at that stuff. Our researchers kicked COVID out of the park in record time. But...such long-term borrowing (which international markets never like) started at just the wrong time (worldwide recession and conflict) was always a bit of a gamble. Some you win and some...

  11. If in doubt, always say: the IMF. Or Washington. Either is fine.

  12. Yes Prime Minister was never this exciting.

  13. Good point well made.

  31.  @srikala90  It's obvious Kwarteng refused to resign because he thought he was blameless. He was only carrying out the Truss plan, after all. It's like that scene in James Bond films when the big boss blows up 'Number One' because the big boss plan failed big time.

  52. Book good, is it? Clinton came to power by rubbishing Reaganomics and his (Reagan's) myth of trickle-down economics, as far as I remember. (strange how that trickle-down phrase has reared it's unlikely head again). Clinton's course corrections involved getting rid of bad news by playing the saxophone quite well and killing people/paying off people/shagging people/denying shagging people. I also think that the cat in the bag will not be waiting to drown much longer. If I cared at all what the King thought I'd top myself. Cheers.

  55.  @MyName-cw4yr  What does that even mean? That phrase is overused and thus has lost all potency.

  56.  @Tapman99  All dignity is gone for nonesuch was there.
    1
  57.  @MyName-cw4yr  Perhaps not all meaning. But many people on here do parrot that phrase offhandedly without taking the time to really think about its origin and history and deeper meaning. It's become 'buzzy' (a fuzzy buzzword). I would, of course, never accuse yourself of such thoughtlessness. I'm sure you are all serious business about these things. Just the fact that your name is MY NAME displays at least wit and intelligence of a too-rare kind.

  58. Your sentence looks like a windyworm.

  60. The Tories wanted the poor to pay back the money borrowed over COVID. (The rich made money off of COVID but paying it back? Eh, no, of course not) But public spending was and is already cut to the bone. They knew this but went ahead anyway. Not smart. Stupid.

  63. Who? Oh, Him. Nah.

  64.  @jameshogan6142  Which is correct: imposter or impostor? The noun referring to one who takes an assumed identity in order to deceive is variously spelled imposter and impostor. The impostor has the edge, and it is the form recommended by most English reference sources, but imposter is not wrong.
    1
  65.  @jameshogan6142  'im-poster' sounds wrong to my ears and brain. It sounds like one's saying: "Him. Poster."?!?
    1
  66.  @jameshogan6142  The 'or'/'er' bit isn't the problem. It's the second syllable that changes. Impostor ['possed']/Imposter ['post']. But, hey, you are not wrong. The English Language has some nonsensical rules - and even attempts to simplify these rules (e.g. colour/color; prologue/prolog, etc) often seem to confuse things. It's because the English Language is subject to Latin grammatical rules, I think...

  67. Spending is already cut to the bone. There never were any spending cuts to be had. He and the PM knew this. They went ahead anyway. Don't mourn stupidity and arrrogance.

  77.  @drlarryjohnson7880  I like the way you express yourself. It's slightly condescending but painfully true and exact. Like Mr. Spook's pronouncements on Star Trek.
