@novaramedia @Lynneth1000000 @MickLynch4AGS Working class is more than being dependent on wages. It’s not a mere category.
It exists only when people who share that wage dependency develop common identity, tradition, sense of agency, & recognise that their common interests are in opposition to those who live off assets✊

@Spoopie4 @BPBlobfish @cenkuygur @grok A few seconds on a search engine reveals Grok is a sycophantic pathological liar that merely predicts words.
Be interesting to hear what words grok predicts if asked for explanation of the kinks above.

@adamtranter @TomTugendhat @O2 @EE France: £6bn investment in cycling & walking infrastructure & has better telecoms & better trains too

So true, Nigel. These days, it seems that you only get scrutinised for accepting a £5m bung from a foreign crypto billionaire if you're white. These days.

This is what bigotry does to you, unfortunately. It permeates everything, your whole life, so you can never behave normally again.

@socialistfella @Hicks_Mctaggart @AaronBastani We sang 'Cwm Rhondda' and 'Delilah' Damn, they sounded both the same 😁

[Sσɳɳყ @pro_multis]

@Hicks_Mctaggart @AaronBastani Welsh have many
Land of my Fathers
Bread of Heaven
Still There
Men of Harlech

They’re the ones we sang at Cardiff Arms 🏉 when I was a kid
in Welsh too which was an act of political defiance back then.
20,000 voices stood in unison in the north end.

Nothing Compares

@JohnFoster12 @Blair1Fony @PJTheEconomist They have been tending not to.
In 1980 people under 50 were significantly more likely to be owner occupiers than they are today. Lagging wages is a primary reason for this
Lagging wages haven’t constrained prices or effective demand.

@flying_rodent Morocco could be tougher than Brazil.
Organised & They moved ball well & hi Intensity.
Brazil looked lethargic & gave ball away cheaply Brazil have more class but were predictable & looked shaky at the back. A point from either likely sees you through. 👍

@Blair1Fony @JohnFoster12 @PJTheEconomist Lower the cost of entry to any asset class will attract more capital from investors seeking returns which invariably inflates prices that’s the market balancing

@si_ad @RoryMaw @PaddyBriggs @PJTheEconomist @SteveLawrence_ Decouple the market *from* investor behaviour

[Sσɳɳყ @pro_multis]

@si_ad @RoryMaw @PaddyBriggs @PJTheEconomist @SteveLawrence_ Holidays are always temporary like the weather
Tax cuts push prices upward because investors seek returns WHATEVER THE WEATHER
Lowering cost of entry attracts more capital which invariably bids up prices
The weather can’t decouple the market investor behaviour
Its empirical

@RoryMaw @si_ad @PaddyBriggs @PJTheEconomist @SteveLawrence_ If net supply were elastic a SDLT cut would increase sale transactions & construction & limit price rises
Supply is inelastic, so the cut mostly inflates price
The liquidity boost never unlocks enough sellers to offset all buyers. Any benefits are short lived & to too few.

@SaulStaniforth This century $20,000,000,000,000
Spent on ‘Defence’ of the west. The world is considerably more dangerous & majority are significantly less prosperous.
Where is the strategic return going to come from
