@MrJamesMay Oh, now you say it, so obvious 🙈

Time’s up, and nobody has won the packet of screws. The correct answer was ‘Flemish single-manual harpsichord after Ruckers’. Useless, the lot of you.

@shedseven See you in Aberdeen, again 👍

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 You’ve been such a massive part of our story since we first started touring back in 1994… and you still are. Only 100 standing tickets left for Edinburgh!!! Thanks so much x

@80s_Kidz I had that exact burner

Would you rather have the Skyway or the Burner?

@DavidJFHalliday Moore’s law

Whatever that rule of CPU power is - you think you've hit the logically conceivable limit but in fact it doubles every few years - has an equivalent as regards how grotesquely repulsive Labour Home Secretaries are.

@MrGunny1963 @NeilSimmy8 I mean the camera angle is inconclusive

Classic - sent onto the GG’s WhatsApp group - @NeilSimmy8 said it was an accident!! 💪🏼

@fesshole Dry wedding? What is this???

My wife is dragging me to her friend's wedding next month. Hundreds of pounds to get there and stay at the hotel, several days of annual leave spent, I barely know the couple, don't expect to know anyone else there. And it's a dry wedding. No idea how I'm going to cope.

@RupertLowe10 Muppet

I am today proposing legislation to Parliament to prohibit quantitative easing without the express consent of democratically elected MPs. QE is essentially the state printing money, billions and billions, to bail itself out - devaluing all of our earnings and savings in the process. If you insert vast amounts of new cash into the system, what does that do to existing funds? It all becomes worth less. Inflation, and lots of it. QE has now become a mainstream tool to avoid the Darwinian reality of capitalism. I want the state to live within its means, just as the rest of us are forced to do so. It raises money through tax, it can then spend that money. It should not be permitted to print mountains of cash to fund unaffordable policies - lockdown is the primary example of that. Let's have a state that is as accountable to its people, as the people are to the state.

@Peston There’s no need to raise taxes for the UK government to buy or pay for anything in £.

The spike in the government’s borrowing costs - notably the rise in the yield on 30-year gilts to a 27 year high - is all about investors’ diminishing confidence in the UK’s growth prospects. It risks pushing the UK into a vicious downward spiral, because the higher borrowing costs increase the risk of more tax rises and an even stronger economic head wind. Starmer - for the sake of the UK - desperately needs a persuasive plan for growth

@wbmosler @TheHumanSpoon I’ve been trying a few AI systems too, in my limited experience they always start with TAB(S) responses but after a few pointed questions jump straight to (S)TAB, which I think is really interesting

@TheHumanSpoon @ross__p Start with this thanks: moslereconomics.com/wp-content/upl…

@Williamgallus @Scotonomics1 Thanks for the tip, ordered 👍

If you want to fight the austerity agenda, you need to be well briefed. This is *the* manual of how austerity protects the interests of the already wealthy. Labour politicians and activists must be turning in their graves. BUY or BORROW this book. Before it is too late.

@carolvorders keep it up love 😀

@implausibleblog “Self imposed”

Paul Johnson, IFS, "We'll either see some big tax increases or spending cuts, given where we are with the public finances at the moment" "Neither the Conservatives nor Labour say: we're going to cut this, or increase taxes.. But if they're going to keep to their own self imposed fiscal discipline, they're likely to have to do one or the other"

@staylorish If all SNP won seats in 2015 had been won by Labour instead, Tories would’ve still been in government though

Voters are not this stupid. The SNP won almost all the seats in Scotland at the 2015 general election, reducing the Tories to just one. This did not get rid of the Tory government. If you want to get rid of Tory government at Westminster, voting Labour works. Voting SNP doesn’t.

@5thmcfly I saw the same in Rome, every shop I went into had it in the premium section 😂

Mad how much of this I’ve seen in Milan!!
