The newly elected prime minister in the U.K.is a real piece of work. It is fascinating to see such self-loathing economic policy at work.
American economist Larry Summers was quoted as saying:
âIt makes me very sorry to say, but I think the U.K. is behaving a bit like an emerging market turning itself into a submerging market."
To me, it looks like British voters want to try on grass skirts and move to stylish thatched roof huts. Apologies for being so politically incorrect. In an emerging market or poor developed country where these kinds of "get something for nothing" policies are implemented, real people starve.
Don't worry about the British; they will simply be a little hungry and very cold this coming winter. Their material standard of living will take years to recover.
She was obviously very sharp.... but I find most Brits have that biting, quick sense of humor. They aren't quite as PC as we are... take things a bit less seriously.
They also have a quality of stoicism I imagine Americans don't.
I am always agog about how someone (the Queen) can be presented with that situation and handle it with just the perfect amount of restraint. Wouldn't most of us just really laid it on thick until he figured it out? Just to see the reaction?

It just occurred to me that they'll have to change the money in the UK, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Trinidad, Bahamas, Belize, etc. to have the picture of Charles (possibly to be known as Phillip or Arthur) on it.
It will be Charles III, and the Bank announced that any bills with the Queen's image will still be valid.

dunno about the other nations, but here are our current notes:
You don't need to buy it...just hold on to your pound notes before they put Charles face on it.
Since crass isn't a thing... I sent a text to my family telling them this is the last day that Googling "King Charles" will return pictures of dogs.
