welcome back to civilisation., or maybe welcome back from civilsation.

Russia was on the brink of civil war for a while...that was a definitely the main news on saturday. Back here it's just the usual the economy is hosed and so are the tories.

I don't think the Russian thing is over, but  it did look like a coup could happen for a while. It was all about which c**t would take over.

Polls are still good for Labour, maybe a bit better. This inflation and rate rising thing could be nail in the coffin for the tories.

First you get water, then electricity. Move onto the train stations and all you need is a couple of hotels and you are a winner 😉

nationalised train stations with hotels was a failure.

Governments, pension funds, mortgage holders and now water companies. Everyone thought we'd have zero interest rates for ever and they could just load up on as much debt as possible.

I wonder what is going to break next?
