Ok, they’ve put the Bank of England interest rate up by 0.25%, so we need to consider all the implications and ramifications of how, precisely, this will affect me, you, the normal working man, the abnormal working man, the abnormally working women, the clinically depressed, the upwardly mobile, the cross-gender and the postman.

So I’ve made a summary that’s really neat and simple and understand. Based on the primary 2 assumptions, pivotal in economic thought. 1. A quarter of one percent is not a very big thing. And 2, all banks are total fucking bastards.

So the bank lending rate will obviously have to rise to reflect the bank’s new rate. Mortgage rates, in response to the 0.25% rate hike, will rise by 9.7%. Whilst the savings rate, the return you get on all your money piled in the bank’s vaults, will go up by 0.0003% (less tax, obvs).

So that’s good news all round. Except the bad news for most of us.

How fascinating that having mentioned the Grand Imperial Wizard of the KKK yesterday in relation to Tommy Robinson and his extreme right winginess, where you’d really expect the KKK to be residing, today’s revelation is that the very same (ex)-whatever of the KKK, David Duke (who also endorsed Trump, by the way), commended the re-election of Jeremy Corbyn after his leadership battle in the Labour party. Commended him on winning despite all the anti-semitism “smears” that were, even then, becoming a problem for Labour. “Great that people are recognising Zionist power and ultimately Jewish power in Britain and the western world”. Yeah David, it is great that they are. Maybe we should form our own army and just take over. As (according to Alexa, who went and counted each one personally for me) there are 300,000 jews in Britain out of population of 60 million souls. (I’ll include Labour members with the ‘souls’ thing just for temporary mathematical convenience).

But what’s interesting is this conflation of common ground between the extreme right and extreme left of the political spectrum. And that common ground is jew-hate. So where should Jews vote? For whom?? Well, logically, as central as you can get. But that would be the Lib Dems and they’re horrible too with a history of… well, Jenny Tonge, can’t get much more anti-semite than her.

Therefore I’m starting a new movement, just like all the other ‘victims’ and I’ve just ordered 300,000 t-shirts with the logo ‘Me Jew’ on them. In Spurs colours.

Happy Friday
