Have we heard anything about Truss yet? With any luck she's out of Women and Equalities, but with that said, that opens up the possibility of someone terfier to get the portfolio.

When I started thinking of fahrenheit as a percentage level of temperature, I realised, yeah, that makes sense still prefer centigrade tho

this lovely island's lack of numeracy is why the British Empire was a horrible idea well, that and Europe's ascendency over Asia in general, but to prevent that from happening, you'd probably need to strangle Genghis Khan in the cradle

so the two major parties are offering their variants on 'socially conservative, economically conservative' and the half-major party is like 'yeah, we're okay with this economic conservatism stuff, but you know how we'll finally break through for the first time in forever? Social liberalism' England and Wales do not have a hope in hell, and I am becoming less optimistic about Scotland and Northern Ireland by the day

lmao if you honestly think the Tories want to buy an energy company that's like Peter Mannion buying a bank and being pissed off that he has to raise taxes

From a few pages back, butgoddamnedtwisto posted:Surprisingly not as apocalyptic as you might expect. Again covid has probably masked a lot of stuff here but for the most part banks have moved their putative HQs to EU cities but the actual trading is still going on in London because of our truly world class I am reminded of that Mark Blyth quote where he said that even though Brexit is hurting Britain badly and it will hurt for the next five years at least, Britain speaks the international language of finance (English), has the best technology and best facilities as you mentioned, and is in the best possible time zone to trade with the United States, so yeah, the English financial services industry isn't going to up sticks and move en masse any time soon. (Unless it moves to Ireland, but that seems unlikely.)
