    “I’ve always said there’s less, not more, to Sunak than meets the eye and that he’s far more right wing than many realise.”

    I agree there is less than meets the eye to him. Another character in public life who is good at self promotion but has no real substance.

    But I disagree he is far right. If he had been around at the time, I think Sunak would have fitted in to a Blair cabinet quite easily.

    I see Tony Blair has been at the WEF basically saying we should all(the whole world) be digitised so ”they” will know who is resisting the new vaccines which are coming down the line. Big Brother is watching you or what?

    Ah yes good old Davos, the self appointed ‘global elite’ flying in by private jet and helicopter to preach to us, amongst other things, about climate change. Couldn’t give a toss what any of them have to say.

    John, your family doctor will have all your medical records so will know your vaccination status; not a conspiracy.

    “Economically we have erected barriers between ourselves and a trading bloc of half a billion mostly wealthy people who again are on our doorstep.

    And yet people and politicians just don’t see it, it’s all covid and the war causing everything 🙄. Well, politicians probably see it, they just don’t say anything”.

    Did anyone say you would see any Brexit benefits as soon as we left Richard? I was on the understanding it will take several years at least to see evidence with all the unentwining we have to do, and it’s pretty naive to expect things will happen at the flick of a switch.
    We were told though by remoaners that the housing market would fall 10-15% as soon as we voted to leave. What happened to that?

    And as I see it, we left on 31st Jan 2020 and just seven weeks later on 23rd March we and most of the world were in lockdowns with disruption to work, supplies, everything.

    Come the start of 2022 where we truly started to get back to some sort of normality, Putin decides to invade which has thrown things up in the air again.

    Brexit has never been given a chance, and even if the big two events hadn’t happened it would have still been too early to see many results.

    We still have 4,000 of the laws to sort out yet. Things have been pushed back a couple of years on top of expectations already.

    I can see the appetite for Brexit to fail for a number just to prove a point, even if this country goes down.
    But they are really naive if they expected to see any results now, even before two major world impact events.

    I just see them as unaccepting, and undemocratic.

    Totally agree with you Richard, the collection of so called elitists with their ego’s and their warped thoughts on the future for mankind feels like something out of a Bond Movie.

    ….If only he was that interesting.

    I don’t agree with much Trump says, but I think he might have been spot on about Musk.

    Bloke’s spent most of his life living off venture capital invested in his various projects.

    Trump reckoned Musk had never actually built a business that had ever stood on its own two feet – I don’t know if that’s true (and cba to research it) but there have been plenty around like that since the original dotcom boom.

    I found this fantasy gamble creation amusing but far too raw so deleted it.

    I met Ted Heath – he mistakenly thought I was the president of the Press Association when I was just the cloakroom attendant. It made me laugh for ten years remembering the rhythmical rise and fall of his laughing shoulders as he greeted me. Even he couldn’t see a big sixty footer EU wave fifty years in the future – possibly I could have helped him there – an island race is full of difficult opinionated embittered :rose: narrow people that don’t mix.
    Don’t do it Ted – but Ted joined the big European market place – why not he was a sailor ?
    Disjointing from this big union has been truly awful it’s like trying to remove those plastic wall panels you stick with glue in bathrooms. Almost nigh impossible to separate. We can never get Last
    Lady Willpower back – she’s nose up and hurt. Still it has been a coo coo ca choo story we’re totally fed up with and why has tech flourished so ? – because it is totally fed up with the reality of the real Britain it is immersed in so escapes into the far less stressful A1 and app world.

    We’ll never get her back.

    There’s a big gap in the union as union gap will remind you of …. We’ll never win her back and why revisit an old love with a big disjointed nose ?

    Answer : we disjointed it !

    Sunak seems to be regressing rapidly. It would be no surprise to see him, in the not too distant future being interviewed on BBC television flanked by his parents.

    100 days of unelected Rishi!
    Still nothing done, no bounce back, no urgency, all the big issues still in limbo, or elsewhere.
