No wonder Hampshire police did all they could to cover this up. They look completely compromised and partial. We may as well have an enemy nation policing our streets.
Imagine if every reply to any police officer going forward was “I don’t think you have mate”
Instead of “no comment” people could say “ I don’t think you have mate” 🙈🙈
Good news. My patriotic friend @LordWeirDUP won the Private Members’ Bill ballot, and has just introduced a Bill to prohibit any change in the sovereignty of the Chagos Islands without the consent of both Parliament and the Chagossian people.
We are going to win this thing.

This has all the familiar hallmarks of the peak of an investment bubble
Stage 1: An influx of investor capital (i.e. dumb VCs with money burning a hole in their pocket) gives rise to fundamentally unprofitable business models (AI Labs)
Stage 2: This sends false price signals throughout the economy (i.e. selling compute at negative margins), causing massive misallocation of capital (businesses and employee workflows built around artificially cheap compute) .
Stage 3 (you are here): The false price signals inevitably clash with economic reality. In a race to show less horrific cash burn ahead of their IPOs, OpenAI and Anthropic have switched to consumption-based pricing models, and now we're suddenly finding out that companies like Uber and WalMart are cutting back on consumption
Stage 4 (coming to a stonk near you): Lots of paper wealth gets vaporized
