Tell me you know nothing about how asset managers work without telling me you know nothing about asset managers
The degree of concentration of US monopoly capital is unprecedented. Wall Street asset managers BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street (the Big Three) are the largest shareholders in 438 of the 500 biggest US corporations (88%), which make up 82% of the entire S&P 500 market cap.
The young are crippled with ever higher tax rates to fund endless cash transfers to the over 65s; over 1/4 of whom are millionaires.
Don’t focus on tuition fees, focus on the 37% marginal rate paid by graduates earning £27k and the 57% rate paid by those earning £50k (plus interest).
Pretty big disaster if having children becomes increasingly politicised
YouGov: "Women, liberals, and younger adults are more likely to say US birth rates are too high rather than too low."
Foundations: Why Britain Has Stagnated. A new essay by @bswud, @SCP_Hughes & me. Why the UK's ban on investment in housing, infrastructure and energy is not just a problem. It is *the* problem. And how fixing it is the defining task of our generation. ukfoundations.co
A great thread summing up the failures of the last Conservative government and what should be done to regain trust
There's been some pushback against the idea that the last Government 'talked right and governed left'. So here are twelve examples that show it's true. Also, an essential corrolary to the implications on whether the Tories were 'too right' or 'too left' (hint: both). Thread.

Whenever I read a political comment I always try and apply the principle of charity, but it seems like there so many prominent commentators who either willfully misunderstand things or are simply incapable of understanding any view other than their own
“No one is protesting about too many blond haired, blue eyed Norwegians coming to this country." The riots are Islamophobic and "there is something dangerous about it", say @jonsopel and @lewis_goodall See why below. articles.globalplayer.com/7giHZHMPmmAS4C…
"In the UK, we're just a bit decadent - we allow nationally beneficial projects to be vetoed by local concerns." @MatthewSyed says the UK's inability to reform planning laws reveals the nation is "politically unserious". 📻 shorturl.at/X4Kny | @ManveenRana @MattChorley
This is not an attempt to justify what happened at Stonehenge today, or even to change anyone’s mind about it. I’d simply like to add some context that I feel has been missing from some reports, statements and tweets.
😂cant believe this is real
‘I love private property, and let me tell you something, if you care about your fucking country, read Ludwig Von Mises and the 6 lessons of the Austrian Economic School, motherfuckers!’ - @moicanoufc 🔥 Best post-fight interview of all time?? Safe to say the Overton window has…
Everything Troup says here has the merit of being 1) factually correct, 2) eminently reasonable. I'm very glad he's advising Labour, who I hope will do something to take on our embittered gentocrats and improve intergenerational inequality
Outrage as ex-Treasury mandarin, Sir Edward Troup, former Head of HMRC and now working at Labour HQ for Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves, demands that ‘codgers’ be hit with new taxes and lose their free TV licences because they have it ‘ridiculously good’
Someone needs to write a long piece on how the CoE has slowly transformed from being the “Tory party at prayer” to a vehicle for deranged far left politics

The Conservatives are so shit at politics - how are the police allowed to waste time investigating banal trivialities like this while murders and rapists are given slaps on the wrist?
BREAKING: West Yorkshire police are investigating alleged racist comments made by Tory Party donor Frank Hester trib.al/Rx0iR33 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube
The depressing reality of modern Britain and our ever declining living standards
This is why we cant have nice things
Understand that the roughly £900m cut to capital includes: -£300m total from 'new hospital' programme -£300m from tech funding -£200m from funding for new lease accounting standard IFRS16
MPs publicly commenting that they fear for their safety and House of Commons rules deliberately altered to avoid violent reprisals. Yet apparently all this is fine and any concern about it is hyperbole or Islamophobic
‘In terms of what MPs say, the only thing that really matters is whether they are bringing a can of water to it, or a can of petrol.’ The notion that Britain has been bullied into submission by Islamists is ‘hysterical nonsense’ and ‘deeply offensive’ says @AndrewMarr9
The Met's continued apology for anti-semitic activity and islamism is both dispiriting and discrediting. The rule of law slowly crumbles as the police are unwilling to do their job
This is a chant that has been frequently heard at pro-Palestinian demonstrations for many years and we are very aware of the strength of feeling in relation to it. While there are scenarios where chanting or using these words could be unlawful depending on the specific location…
