I guess these rich people had enough of the cultural enrichment.

60% of the residents are foreign born.

They can afford to vote with their feet.

The rest of the UK cannot.

Their Deep State has seen to that.

And I’ll bet their Deep State is excreting bricks thinking about what Pres. Trump will do when he visits in September.

Deliberately done. Hindustan own most of London now.

Who did ya vote for? STFU then.

I got two nice Rolexes in St Thomas one time. I’m afraid to wear them, what with all the bad boys about these days.

Your old man took her diamonds and tiaras by the score
Now she gets her kicks in Stepney
Not in Knightsbridge anymore
So don’t play with me, ‘cause you’re playing with fire

It seems the Brits never learn. When I was in England doing my Ph.D. research back in the late 60’s, I got to know a “chemist” (pharmacist to us Colonials) quite well and we became close friends during my stay. Our wives and us would take day trips to parts of the Midlands and he showed us two chemist shops he was thinking about buying. Later he told us he wasn’t going to buy it and when I asked why, he said it would put him in the “Super Tax” rate. He said those purchases would put his income over £15,000 (about $32,000 US at the time), and the marginal tax rate rose to 98%!

This tax rate not only stopped him dead in his tracks, it ushered in a migration known as the Brain Drain from England. Early on, most (e.g., the Beatles, Richard Burton) fled to the Jersey Islands, as its residents weren’t subject to the tax. Seeing this, Parliament decided to tax the islands, too. Result: the brightest, most talented people in England left for other places in the world.

Stupid economic policies have stupid consequences, but that point seems to be over the head of most politicians...and its not unique to England.

London is dead.

One of our neighbors just moved from England. He said that Europe and the UK is lost and the Democrats are as bad as the Labor and he said the Reform UK needs to win.

He did ask me how we can drive big cars, because his large car is a Honda Civic. I told him that we love big. His wife loves our Ford Expedition.

This appears to be another example of the Curley Effect.

Just horrible. God bless this fatherless child:
