Well, we need to compare figures when looking at a 3rd currency, if you’re only looking at one side of transactions. If you are exporting/importing then exchange rates have a big impact.
April 2018 £1 = $1.43
April 2022 £1 = $1.24

So if the local currency has dropped 13%...

It means if a Trump supporter shoots a woman in the abdomen, killing her baby, then SHE is guilty of its murder.

[WTFH]

So, you disagree that the pound collapsing 23% against the dollar has anything to do with it?

Wow.

A barrel of oil was £69.015 in August 2013 (based on your figures)
Today, it’s £83.846, again based on your figures.

And you’re denying that £14.831...

[WTFH]

August 2013 - Oil $107 a barrel.
May 2022 - Oil $106 a barrel....

It will take outside influence for things to start improving for British people....

Yes, oil prices.
The price of oil is lower now than it was a few years ago, when petrol was £1.50 a litre. But the price of oil is in dollars and since Brexit, the exchange rate has changed. Nothing to do with your belief that everything can be blamed on Covid and Boris’ paymasters invading...

Ah, so are you saying we should not just select them based on them being “war poets” or “ones Vetran has heard of”, but because their writing inspires, educates, etc?

Just want to check, because you seem to be contradicting your first post in this thread.

Maybe we should...

We would have to apply, then join the queue. And given how the UK government and their media portray the EU, we wouldn’t be fast-tracked. I also suspect we would have to adopt the Euro as currency (something we never had to do when we were part of it the first time round), and the tax laws (something...

Heaney, Joyce, Frost, CS Lewis… are they offensive to the Wail too?

When most Wail readers were studying the War Poets, it was only 50 years since the end of the Great War. That would be the equivalent today of a pupil studying Bohemian Rhapsody, The Wall and Let It Be.
I realise...

He never even visited Wakefield, and only briefly visited Tiverton. The Tory party did not do door-to-door work or debates (apart from one), instead relying on leaflets and “always vote Tory”.
The electorate aren’t always the mugs that the government think they are.

A bit overcast here, and some overnight rain may have helped the garden.

And when that is offered, you can blame people for being too lazy to do the job…
Except the people who could do the job and pay tax on their earnings are being held in camps pending deportation to Rwanda.

Why now let immigrants do the jobs? If we’ve got 1.3million vacancies, why...

[WTFH]

Illegal immigrant slams English literature, and the Wail is supporting him.

Next they’ll be saying that it’s someone else’s fault for the last 12 years of government, apart from the government.

CBS, but humid.

Relatively enjoyable day with my dad. Going somewhere a bit nice tomorrow. We’ll see how much he complains.

Not forgetting the anti-vax brigade....
