This cabinet is magnificent, I can only imagine the Islington heads erupting as we speak.

Nice to see leeches such as Grayling gone. Less encouraging is seeing the likes of Priti Patel appointed Home Secretary. Vile woman and deeply unsuitable for that role.

Here’s a cheery thought. If/when Boris fails, it’s going to be Corbyn or Farage next isn’t it? Marvellous…

Or the execrable Jo Swinson. I’m praying Boris pulls off one more magic trick, because the alternatives are truly dreadful.

Yep, that’s how I see it.

I see Dominic ‘Dublin is the capital of N.I.’ Raab is now the Foreign Secretary too. Outstanding work.

At least he’s reasonably jacked. Hunt had the hottest wife though.

Mogg as leader of the HOC. THIS. IS. TOP. TIER. HILARITY.

THE VICTORIANS HAVE MADE A STUNNING RESURGENCE.

He used to be even more of a tank! I am docking him points for loss of muscle mass.

Yes, Hunt has done remarkably well for a beady-eyed little ferret.

You are all probably too young to have watched “Yes Minister, or Yes Prime Minister.” I am enjoying the reruns on German TV. Hilarious!

I’m too young to have seen them in first run, but you bet your ass I love the DVD/blue rays

Seriously? She’s pretty ugly to me.

I’d say that Priti “let’s starve the Irish” Patel in her younger days was hotter.

Actually, both Boris and Rees-Mogg look like crude, implausible over-the-top villains from those dreadful Soviet propaganda movies about the evils of decadent capitalism.

No accounting for taste, i suppose.

No question. I still wouldn’t kick her out of bed.

I KNOW! IT’S EVERYTHING MY BLACK HEART DESIRED.

I just realized out that the UK has become so progressive that a great-great grandson of a slave may rise to the top position in government. When is Boris getting his reparations?

Interestingly, BoJo’s Turkish relations include several distinguished Turkish career diplomats from the illustrious Kuneralp family.

‘Conservative.’ The rot is bone deep in this shambles of a parliamentary party.

Genuinely, this is the least justifiable opinion I can imagine from anyone supposedly sane.

The appointment of Lagarde is making more sense every day. Mind you, I’m not I sure that the ECB will find some method of kicking this can down the road yet again.

The “can” fell off the cliff a long time ago (2008!) We just went down the “rabbit hole” and are living in “Wonderland.” Next time it will be the “Looking glass!”

Let’s take a reality check:

  • The world is drowning in debt, global debt (sovereign, corporate, personal etc.) is approx 4 times global GDP in other words not only can it NEVER be paid but the burden is being pushed onto unborn generations as well as the young of today
  • GS is advising its top clients to buy gold
  • Ray Dalio money manager says to buy gold (he also said “things are looking like the 1930s” in a recent interview)
  • Central banks are buying gold
  • 16 trillion (increasing) of negative interest bonds in Europe!
  • Never in the history of money has there ever been NIRP (read Dr. M. Hudsons great book “And forgive them their debts.”
  • Insane monetary and fiscal policy by bought and paid for politicians 1 + 1 = 2.354 or pi or whatever bankers can foist off
  • Inverted yield curve (happens before every recession)
  • Target 2 moving into insanity
  • Even the BIS is getting jittery
  • “Weapons of financial mass destruction” (Warren Buffett)

There is a lot more I haven’t even touched on, basically we are “screwed.”

It is not a question of “IF” but “When.” Only this time there is nothing to deal with it, the savers have been plundered, the pension pots are being plundered. You can only QE fiat currency so far and time is running out for that.

“You can fool all the people some of the time

You can fool some of the people all the time

But you can’t fool all the people all the time

The question is how are TPTB going to divert the attention of the unwashed masses?

Boom – bust – WAR!

Have a nice day……
