Couldn't stand Farage on LBC, but I'll give him a watch.

It's people who think themselves virtuous, but just don't have a clue, inflicting a social experiment on children with no thought of the consequences on the children or their families.
And the really sad part is it will almost certainly seriously fuck up, even more, children who may actually have sexualaity and gender issues.

Experiment is precisely right. If this were drugs related there’d be years of testing before it was let loose on kids.
All part of a wider Tinkerbell malaise.

Johnson supposedly crafting a relocation strategy for Afghan refugees
Will be interesting to see how this plays out amongst the working class Tory voters based on the Tory Government’s failure to look after British Afghanistan campaign vets

UK bouncing back quite hard
953,000 Job vacancies - major mismatch in acquired skills vs required skills. Basically a combination of Brexit, Covid & departing migrants. In turn causing a real wage growth rise.
Currently 1.4 mill out of work, so in theory only 500k job shortage.

If we get real wage inflation we will be up shit creek without the proverbial. Even a 1% rise in interest rates would cause havoc in many peoples' finances.

Whilst I don’t disagree, the increase is inevitable over the next five years.

And whilst I don't disagree with you, the increase has been inevitable for the last ten years! However, the longer it goes on the nearer the reversion becomes, so yeah I do sort of agree with you.

It maybe because I read a bit too much GB media and not enough Scots, but things seem to be turning on Ms Sturgeon of late.

That's exceptionally odd. Every government since time immemorial has always sought to limit its power. Must be a typo.
