I do wonder how much difference it makes. Central bank governors are drawn from the same circle of people as politicians. So their interests still align. Like with the BoE. Exactly whose interests has it been acting in, the past couple of decades? Doesn’t feel much like Joe Public’s.
I just looked up the educational history of the Governor of the BoE. Cambridge. His predecessor was Oxford. Quelle fucking surprise. Bunch of unutterable cvnts, every one of them.
A couple of tactical nuclear missiles fired at Oxford and Cambridge would go a long way to improve the country. Though whats really needed is a sort of Oxbridge neutron bomb, that kills all their former graduates and leaves everyone else untouched. A bit harsh on quite a few innocent brainboxes, but as most of them are a bunch of communists anyway, the concept of the few suffering for the benefit of the many is rather appropriate.
The vast majority of people I knew when up were perfectly decent, quietly getting on with stuff. A handful, though… and everyone knows who those handful are. The ones for whom power is an end in itself, who — superficially charming — insinuate themselves into student politics and who wreck any society they get themselves involved in.
Those who are naturally the best at being slimy greasy-pole-climbing-arseholes will gravitate toward the top universities (and Oxford), but, as Jesus didn’t say, “the knob-ends you will have with you always” — removing the SPS/PPE blob will leave you with marginally less competent tossers doing exactly the same things.
Slightly OT
We watched Rick Stein’s travels through Bangladesh last night, what a fascinating country.
I’d say the Bangladeshis should just allow the banks to go bankrupt.
But of course I have no deposits in Bangladeshi banks.
