The UK Govt is planning for a recession.  Stopping long term gilt sales means speculators cannot successfully bet against interest rates. Why I’m Buying the UK’s Most Volatile Bond to Profit from the Next House Price Crash OK, so this blocks speculators from profiting off the nation's incoherent policy since the war. And civil servants are heading off those they are jealous of, by front running an expected or planned recession. Woeful. Very much plandemic style. But it also means the price of everything will be impossible to discover, making matters worse than any speculator could and a swift recovery impossible.

What the media tells you about is a 'program'. It is not what is really happening in totality. The program always pitches 2 competing tribes fighting against each other. It knows people in general place obedience to the tribe before morals and will religiously take one side or the other. You believe the tribe you support is the only virtuous one because tribal loyalty 'rewards' you for believing that illusion, not because it actually rewards you or is actually virtuous. The more hateful each tribe is of the other, the more the program is set in stone in the minds of those people who willingly consent to the program. The wise old man will watch all this play out like a pantomime. And will make decisions betting against that incoherence for the benefit of his household and his descendants. Follow  the media on either side and you will have consented to this program and all the consequences of that. And your household, descendants and all those around you will ...

Supporters of Reform, Labour, the Conservatives, the Liberal Democrats and the Greens are often warned that voting for anyone else will “split the vote.” But what if they are the ones splitting the vote for Britain? Despite their differences, these parties remain committed to an establishment consensus that places international institutions, global interests and ideological fashions ahead of Britain’s sovereignty, inheritance and future generations. Voting for that consensus does not necessarily mean that you do not love your country. But it does require an honest question: are you supporting a party that will actually defend Britain—or merely choosing between different managers of its continued decline? National decline is not imposed by government alone. It is enabled by resignation: by a people who recognise what is being lost, yet continue voting for the parties responsible because resistance appears difficult, unfashionable or unlikely to succeed. That is how a nation’...

This is not financial advice. It's a risky gamble. You have been warned of the risks. Thanks to Google AI for helping with this analysis Executive Summary: The Great Recession Gamble Surviving Great Recession - Using Gilts to Build a Safe-Haven and Pivot Into Deep-Discount Real Estate In an environment of sticky inflation and high central bank interest rates, long-dated government bonds are typically viewed as slow, conservative instruments for retirement. However, if you anticipate a severe economic downturn within the next 12 months, these assets transform into highly volatile trading tools. By purchasing ultra-long UK government bonds—specifically the Treasury 2.5% 2065 gilt ( TG65 ) —deeply "below par" at a steep market discount, investors can leverage a mathematical c...

At a recent farm open day, a farmer was explaining how he reduces the need for pesticides. He said: “Our method nurtures both the good and the bad, to bring it all back into balance.” I do not suppose this man thinks of himself as a holy man. Perhaps he does not yet realise that, in his own way, he is one. He was describing the relationship between the predators and prey that live among the crops. His method is not simply to destroy every beetle, wasp or other creature that appears troublesome. It is to preserve the whole living system and allow its natural relationships to reassert themselves. Remove the predators and the crop-destroying pests multiply unchecked. Eradicate the pests completely and the predators lose their food and disappear. By sustaining both, the farmer restores a balance that protects the crop without relying entirely upon artificial chemicals. Is this not the wisdom of a holy man? The etymology of the term holy means: to heal. A healer. Can his kind of words be us...
