And Then, All Up...

   I trust y’all are eagerly waiting for the Autumn Statement from that nice, trustworthy Jerry Punt-up-a-Creek. Looks like everything, such as taxes and council rates, will be going up and I’d guess the pension triple lock will also be scrapped – again.
   All in a forlorn attempt to fill the big money hole – a hole dug by those wanting more of our money in an attempt to fill it in a bit.
   If ‘they’ can just take our money, ‘spend’ it without getting a return on the outgoings for us, it should follow that I could pop into my bank, explain I’d just lost a grand on a stupid horse and demand they increase the interest they grudgingly give me on my meagre savings to fifty percent per month until my loss is recouped. Same idea is it not?
   Never mind, let’s all rejoice at all the money being thrown onto the climate bonfire as, according to a supposedly grownup voice, it seems the World is on a ‘highway to climate hell’. Ah shacks ma heed.
   Let’s end with a video clip to show my support for climate activists. Now if that kid wasn’t just extracting the urine,  then all hope for the future is lost.

Surely, she just had to be extracting the urine. The trouble is you never quite know. I wonder what's on the menu at COP27?

A K Haart,
As you say, hard to tell these days.
Just picked this up and if true, what a mess we're in. No money eh?

And there was me thinking the Monster Raving Looney Party was just a harmless bit of fun...
