Henry Hill from Conservative Home exploded and tried to deliver a load of ad hominem attacks on me: to his credit, Nicky Campbell stopped that.
I justified my comment using Bailey as an example. He must know that raising interest rates will cause misery and does nothing whatsoever to stop inflation caused by war in Ukraine, but he is raising rates anyway when inflation will in any event inevitably fall this year.
Either he is stupid

Whereas on the TaxRidiculous website he’d have been fucked off & banned as a troll for not singing according to the site hymn-book. He might want to ponder that. But reasons of course.
Dunno who Henry Hill is, or what he ad-hominem’ed the Potato with, but there;s a 95% probability he was spot on, especially on any of the nastier bits.
Similarly, you’ll very quickly get banned from Conservative Home if you’re a conservative.
These ‘neo fascists’ in the Conservative Party are interesting to me:
Maybe I need to revisit the work of Gentile or Mussolini but I can’t remember them:
– Approving of unlimited immigration from all corners of the globe
– Giving official imprimatur to the idea that a man can be a woman or that there are 273 genders (And rising)
– Calling for the complete deindustrialization of the country
– Embracing sexual deviance and removing from public life anyone who doesn’t embrace it
– Discriminating against native people in favour of those from abroad
They do seem wedded to the idea that the state is the solution to everything (much like a certain pseudo-academic from Ely) but that is as close to ‘fascism’ as I can find…
Two jerks in a circle jerk, doing what jerks do.
Mind you, being rude about Bailey may be justified even if Spuduloathe is likely to belabour him for the wrong offences.
I do not like the cut of Bailey’s jib.
Inflation caused by war in Ukraine?
Not the state’s war on cheap energy, and thus the price of everything then, Spud you moronic twat?
Ad hominem: twat, cretin, tosspot, fuckwit, etc. Known as projection.
“War in Ukraine” … Murphy faithfully parroting the Kremlin’s line that it’s some sort of civil war, rather than an invasion by the people of Russia.
Wildly O/T, but was someone querying the existence of orange wine some time (possibly quite a bit) back?
https://www.bonappetit.com/story/orange-wine-popularity
Our host was, and not this type of orange wine.
He wanted to know whether it was possible to directly ferment orange juice.
Haven’t updated that one, but I did give it a shot, including Trickery.
The answer is No, Nope, Nyet. Not with yeast. And not with Aspergillus ( which would technically make it more of a sake, I guess. )
And yes.. two of the batches have seen the “Drain Cleaner” ( lab grade sodium hydroxide, but still…) treatment to get a citrate buffer at higher pH. Nope…
Other batches have seen more ….uncivilised… treatment, including two precipitation steps using Strontium salts.
( yes.. there’s an abundant natural stable non-radioactive element. Yes, they make pretty rocks. Yes, I have a couple of kilos of those. Pretty Rocks, d’uh.
It works *exactly* as a much heavier substitute for Calcium, which makes centrifuging precipitate a hella lot easier on home-brew equipment.)
You can get the yeast to grow ( -ish), and even ferment, BUT there simply isn’t enough glucose in the juice to get any appreciable amount of ethanol ( but plenty of other Nasties…).
Hitting raw juice with pectase gives a similar result: wrong kind of sugar for ethanol. ( plenty of acetone though..).
Which is basically as expected.. If our medieval/renaissance forefathers couldn’t make alcohol out of the stuff, there’s little chance we can.
Even though we understand the underlying principles far better, and can point out the Why of it.
Thus Science has been Served in proving it still cannot be done, even with more advanced knowledge and understanding of the process.

Paul you’re even more of a cabbage than Spud.
