A bedtime story for your kids and MAGA
relatives…
Once upon a time, there were two businessmen, Don and Bob.
Both had roughly the same amount of stuff. They both wanted loans to get more stuff and grow their businesses.
Bob went to the bank for a loan. He told them how much stuff he had. The bank said they couldn’t loan Bob all the money he wanted coz he didn’t have enough stuff as collateral. Bob was sad and had to give up his dream of growing his business.
Don, on the other hand, went to the bank and exaggerated how much stuff he had. By a lot. Don was a slick talker and had false paperwork to show he had a lot more stuff than he really did. The bank felt more comfortable giving Don the loan, coz they believed he had enough stuff to offer as collateral. Don ended up getting more stuff and living large.
Who is the victim?
Not the bank. One could argue should’ve done their homework on slick-talking Don.
It’s Bob.
It’s the thousands of Bobs who follow the rules and don’t lie and cheat their way into a better life.
Who protects people like Bob?
Who makes sure the rules are fair for all?
The Southern District of New fucking York, that’s who.
The End.
The immigration surge is down to Brexit.
It’s the new post-Brexit immigration rules kicking in (the “points-based system”)
Because Brexit caused EU citizens leave NHS & social care jobs, govt threw doors wide open to non-EU immigrants to fill job gaps.

@hoka No it doesn’t help I’m afraid, as I have emailed this email address 3 times as per my above tweet! The latest time I’ve had a bounce back as the address doesn’t exist!! What are HOKA going to do about it?????
@hoka I tried to cancel my order within 10 mins, but your system isn’t working. I’ve tried to change the delivery address but DPD say you need to do it not me, I have emailed 3 times, tried calling and tried your live chat and had no response. Please help! £280 down the drain?
@hoka I’ve had no response to my previous tweet, or any of the 3 emails I have sent your [email protected] email address (which does not exist) what’s goings on? Am I going to get my refund or not??
Gerald Ratner, "I don't think anyone knows whether Brexit is good or bad, it's a 10 year thing.. In the meanwhile, we've got a hell of a lot of disruption and I can't see how the Northern Ireland thing will ever be resolved.. People voted for Brexit because we had too much immigration.. Since Brexit we have replaced EU immigrants with non EU immigrants"
Michelle Dewberry, "Do you see any opportunities in Brexit?"
Gerald Ratner, "Exactly the opposite actually.. Business investment is 10% down because big companies take a view that we've made a big mistake"
Michelle Dewberry, "How do you know the investment decline, if there is one, is directly linked to Brexit?"
Gerald Ratner, "It all plays part with the scenario that Britain is going backwards.. Business people take a view.. They say Britain has made a lot of mistakes and its not a country that is top of our list for investment. That wasn't the case 10 years ago"
🚨 EXCL: Arsenal have reached agreement with William Saliba over new 4yr contract. 22yo had 12mnths on existing deal but fresh terms will tie him down until at least 2027, amid strong interest from PL + abroad. Now on to paperwork stage @TheAthleticFC#AFC https://t.co/BeUCKqH8zL
I’ve only just seen this clip of David Moyes and his Dad.
You’d have to be dead inside not to smile at that. His old man is 87 and it’s Moyes’ first ever major trophy. Lovely stuff.
