Ah, what it is to be ruled by a tin pot dictator.
One does so hope he comes to a bad & inglorious end.
Very soon.
As Cummings said, what does it say about the country that the choice was between an incompetent clown and a magic grandpa.
Doomed etc.

I have always liked him and his story, was a customer of his spread bet firm back in the day. He used to reply to some of my email queries.
"Born in Hackney, east London, a lack of family finances forced him to leave Shoreditch comprehensive school with no qualifications at the age of 15, despite having the academic ability.
In 1989 he established his own company, CMC Markets plc, with a capital of £10,000. It is now worth an estimated £1.25bn"
I didn't know he was a big Vote Leave donator until i read the OP's link, now i like him even more!Last edited by Fraidycat; 4 June 2021, 17:02.

Get yourself a seat in the Lords.
