there's a certain drama to liz truss slowly going mad. a tragic element. the way she's doubled down rather than back off, the way she's looked for approval after being so publicly humbled. spending your whole life striving for the top, getting it and then having it ripped away immediately coz of your own hubris

First as farce, then as tragedy (albeit a fairly farcical kind of tragedy).

My favourite element of the whole thing was her claim that her plan to reinvigorate the economy with a huge raft of uncosted tax cuts would have worked if it hadn't been sabotaged by the conspiracy of Marxists that secretly run the Bank of England, LSE, and all international markets.

LSE was founded by Fabians, i.e. gradualist Marxists. Same outcome, different strategy.

There's been another massive fire in a London flat block with illegal cladding:


Is Dagenham in London then?

Oh apparently since 1965.

Funny seeing Hunt moaning about Labour "politicising" the OBR by publishing their report showing the Tories cooked the books...


LONDON, Oct 30 (Reuters) - British finance minister Rachel Reeves on Wednesday said the previous Conservative government hid vital information on public spending from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR), citing a new report from the independent forecasting body.

Reeves quoted the OBR's report as saying its forecasts in the March 2024 budget published by the previous government would have been "materially different" had it been given a fuller picture of the government's spending.

"Let me be clear: that means any comparison between today's forecast and the OBR's March forecast is false," Reeves said in her budget speech.

In its report, the OBR said then-finance minister Jeremy Hunt had not shared information about "large pressures" on day-to-day spending.

In a letter to parliament's treasury committee, OBR Chair Richard Hughes said information about 9.5 billion pounds ($12.4 billion) of "net pressures" on departments' budgets in 2024-25 had not been shared with the OBR.

Hunt has criticised Reeves's decision to commission the review, saying it politicised the fiscal watchdog and would harm its impartial image.
