Javier Cercas, outstanding Spanish novelist and writer, and self-described socialist voter, summarizes well the situation in Spain in El Pais: it is hard to explain "that a president should remain in office when his wife, his brother, his latest right-hand person, his previous right-hand person, the right-hand person of his previous right-hand person, and a group from his own party have all been charged by the courts, and whose Organization Secretary, according to the judge, devised a ‘criminal structure’ to discredit adversaries” elpais.com/eps/2026-06-20…

@cjsnowdon A PM with all the failings of the one he will replace. Like Starmer he has literally no idea of how the economy actually grows nor how businesses provide goods & services.

@CarpeZytha @cjsnowdon What's funny is that Manchester's buses have performed worse than most other cities that spent far less.

@magathsanto @s8mb So it's "based" to believe in flat-Earth Economics that have failed every time? I mean, are you just retarded? Seriously?

I read this Miatta Fahnbulleh essay from 2019 (apparently she is likely to be a major figure in Burnham’s govt). The main ideas are doing full Net Zero by 2035, requiring a four-day work week and mandating that workers become the “dominant shareholders in every enterprise”. It only mentions economic growth to say that it has stopped benefitting working people and that climate change is more important than it. foreignaffairs.com/articles/unite…

@mattrooney11 @s8mb So when bad things happen to an economy you think it's better to be poorer, not richer. You really aren't too bright.

@s8mb Addressing climate change is more important than your small-minded preference for short-term economic growth. The collapse of the gobal economy caused by 3 degrees will be the biggest event in human history. Your half a million pension pot will be worth a dime.

@janrosenow This is false. EVs have substantially lower ranges & take smmore time to charge. That is LESS EFFICIENT. Heat pumps cannot heat water sufficiently to avoid Legionaires. That is LESS EFFICIENT. You look at only 1 aspect. Stop spreading disinformation.

Electrofficiency: electric tech is far more efficient than the fossil tech it replaces. A heat pump, an EV, an induction hob, same job on a fraction of the energy. That’s why electrification taking centre stage at COP matters. Excellent piece 👇 theguardian.com/environment/20…

@joncoopertweets @BryanInteriors Right, because oneof those guys had at least one blow job in the Oval Office. But of course you ignore that. And one had noidea where he was some days. Really classy stuff.

Imagine Trump ever being invited to join a photo like this — not in a million years. Four presidents. Zero drama. Just smiles, respect, and a shared love of country. 🇺🇸

@frombexley @worstall Exports are a cost, moron. They are domestic inputs consumed by foriegners. Increased exports means less domestic production for people in the UK to consume. Remainers are always so ignorant.

@PeterStefanovi2 Right. We are 6% of GDP poorer. £200 billion. Where? Where is this missing £200 billion from UK production? Utterly moronic.

@cjsnowdon The state should spend more in a few specific areas that I like & which sort of feel right to me & that will make everything right again. I am so clever!

EXC Burnham advisor says government should borrow more Jim O’Neill tells me as part of Manchesterism film: “I've tried to encourage this government to be bolder about. I think the second part of the fiscal rule on borrowing to invest I think that could be explored a lot more, and not in a way that freaks out the financial markets. “I don't think you'd necessarily have to rip up the fiscal rules. I think you just need to be bolder about borrowing to invest. A lot of people right now, given Britain's history for 30 years or more, think any kind of borrowing just means wasted money. But if you borrow for things that have really positive multiplier effects.”

@cjsnowdon Another mediocrity who thinks the solution to all our problems is to be just a bit more Left-wing. Where do they find these dummies?

@aDissentient Probably not. Markets are just unclear what is happening so people are selling - sell on rumour, buy on fact.
