@Jasleen1_ All these AI videos are so tedious. If they’re so clever, why haven’t they invented an ‘off button’ for it?

Yeah, @Nigel_Farage wouldn’t want this video to be shared over and over of him lavishing poodle-like praise on Donald Trump.
He’s trying to disassociate from him, so every time it’s shared it ruins that.

@SpursIdol @LizWebsterSBF But Thatcher didn't raise cash to reduce debt to manageable levels, she did it and then provided tax cuts for high earners

🧵 THREAD: How Britain gave away the North Sea
In 1970s Britain 🇬🇧 discovered one of largest oil windfalls in modern history.
Harold Wilson initially saw it for what it was, a once-in-a-generation chance to build national wealth. The idea was simple: Use North Sea oil to create a sovereign wealth fund
👉 Like Norway later did
👉 To invest for future generations
A long-term national asset.

Britain has paid Norway over £100 billion for gas since 2021. For gas they’re drilling in the North Sea, the same sea Ed Miliband has banned new drilling in on the British side. Madness.

@SpursIdol @LizWebsterSBF One if the myths of the 1970s is the Callaghan government screwed up
Wrong
First half of 70s were administered by Tories and the Barber boom, Yom Kippur war, oil price shock. 3 day week
Labour spent the decade sorting out the disastrous Tory mess

@SpursIdol @LizWebsterSBF You ignore the international oil crisis c1974. Labour came into power in that crisis and had to make do. Thatcher that sold all our assets off for short term gains, enriching a few at the expense of many. Her mismanagement is the root of many of the uk’s economic problems.

@LizWebsterSBF But Wilson screwed up the UK economy - IMF had to come in twice in 1970's to cut Labour bloated costs...... but big debts remained. So Thatcher had to raise cash to reduce debt to manageable levels .... only big £ option was to sell off North Sea oil and gas fields.

@Cee___Kay @real_axella It says 81 on the sign at the beginning of the clip? (I’m sure the incident is fake though)

@Amelia558rs My first Saturday job was as the ‘Lift Girl’ in a shoe shop. Old building with a 1920s gate lift. It was a challenge to make sure you stopped it without creating a step. Every day, several people joked ‘Your’s is an up and down sort of life, isn’t it?’ How I used to laugh… 😕 🙀
