Vote Early, vote often

Tonight we will know how big a majority Keir will get in the new parliament. It is important because it will determine how much power he actually has.   Who is in second place is almost irrelevant, the role of the opposition had been greatly diminished with the radicalisation of parliament.  

The saddest and funniest moment of the election was the "arrival" of the great savior Boris "I'm the king"  Johson.  How this clown is still listened to by anyone is shocking, as expected better from the Tories.   The reality is that Boris knowingly lied about the impact of Brexit.   He lied about COVID.  However, he does give a good speech!   But so did Hitler.  Not that I am comparing Boris to Adolf.  Boris lies more!

Today, I voted Labour for the first time in my life.  I am not proud of this, also the conservative candidate in my constituency is almost certain to win.  The Tories need to go the corner and rethink their actions.  They (not us) need to re-think who they are and how they see the country and they need a whole lot of new leaders.  Completely wash away the bad taste of Boris and Liz!  

As for Sunak, he proves that brilliant men (or women) do not always make brilliant politicians or tacticians.   Sunak was neither he probably chose his advisors poorly and suffered the consequences.   Although in these elections he has been wrong footed at almost every key juncture.

Ok so I lied...a little (revised)

When we began looking at farming in 2013/14 as something we both wanted to do as a "second career" we invested time and money to understand what sector of farming was profitable.  A few things emerged, First, high-quality, source-proven, organic farm products consistently have much higher profit margins.  Secondly, transformation accounted for nearly 80% of total profits, and production and distribution accounted for 20% of profits: Farmers and retailers have low profit margins and the middle bits make all the money. A profitable farm operation needs to be involved in the transformation of its produce.  The low-hanging fruits: cheese and butter.  Milk, generates a profit margin of 5% to 8%, depending on milk quality.  Transformed into cheese and butter, and the profit margin rises to 40% (Taking into account all costs).  Second:  20% of a steer carcass is ground beef quality.  The price is low, because (a) a high percentage of the carcass, and (b)...

Spray painting Taylor Swift G650 aircraft (updated)

 First, a bit of paint will not harm anyone.  These climate activities are going to learn two things in the next few days:  (1) Trespassing at an airport is a felony almost anywhere in the world.  That means criminal prosecution.   (2) removing paint from an aircraft is expensive.   So these climate activists are about to find out the reach of the British criminal system and it will not be pleasant, the UK has very strict laws about that, I would be surprised if cleaning the aircraft of all the paint will cost less than $100,000.     I am sure that when they planned (premeditation) this little show they had a very valid logic to doing this.  Tonight, they are probably realizing the depth of their troubles.   I understand that in the UK it's a minimum one-year jail sentence.    Also, good luck travelling with a criminal trespass charge against you.  I am relatively certain that the airline industry will ...

Janet Yellen from China supporter to Hawk...

There is rarely serious news in the world these days, it seems that most newspapers are filled with headlines and little else, and then Ms Yellen went to China.  Secretary Yellen has long been known in the Biden administration as the voice of moderation when dealing with China, yet as her trip which concluded yesterday a hawk was born:  She warned the Chinese against dumping goods in the United States.    fighting words! The American administration is very concerned about the lack of Chinese domestic consumption.   Even before the COVID-19 epidemic, there were already the beginning signs of a slowdown, automobile sales were off.   China is facing domestic deflation (a clear sign of collapsing demand) China imports few consumer goods, they import raw materials and intermediary goods.   It seems that the American administration is concerned that the Chinese administration will dump consumer goods abroad to keep its manufacturing machinery ...
