‘twas the night before Christmas and Newcastle’s second greatest thinker after Anthony McPartlin gazed out of the windows of his mock Georgian farmhouse onto snow covered fields. In the far distance he could see the headlights of stolen cars as the poor people hurried back from the foodbanks ahead of the big day.

I start with AI being wrong re my 10* great grandfather and also Wrexham/York City & West Ham. Then Rachel Reeves being wrong on, well, almost everything today then Nigel Farage and the FCA. I look at 3 scandals the FCA is disgracing itself with: Quantum Energy (MAST), 80 Mile (80M), Georgina Energy (GEX) and then at Argo Blockchain (ARB), Lucian's shorting watchlist and Medpal AI (MPAL)

Watching Rachel Reeves this morning it is quite clear that my wife and I are going to see material tax rises over the next year despite our household income actually falling. My proposed solution is to sell up in wet and windy Wales and move to our mountain eco palace in sunny Greece where we could either retire on our savings and home school the kids or carry on working and, actually, pay less tax. The Mrs has no plan B but I fear plan B it will be. We will just soldier on and feel cheated and unhappy.

I start with the most gripping football game I've watched in ages as the BBC tells me that I am an older viewer. Then it is why lying should matter and Rachel Reeves caught out yet again. Finally the Lemming berates shareholder activism at Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) and Optibiotix (OPTI) and why I think he is wrong on, almost, all counts.

Don't misunderstand me, our chancellor is dishonest and, off the scale, incompetent but proposed tax changes for my favourite folks, Shipmans and lawyers, strike me as fair. Tell me why I am wrong?

I start with the UK's worst ever chancellor and a media list of shame that should be compiled. Then my pal the Eurloon Jonathan Price misses the point on Optibiotix (OPTI) and its OTC listing.

I discuss Bidstack, bitcoin, bubble and my new pal Sheryl, sadly not Cheryl. I then express y doubts as to whether Nigel Farage really would stop the terminal decline of Britain.

Yesterday I penned a piece about the win win for America as Trump’s tariffs secured a $50 billion investment from AstraZeneca as it scaled back investment here in Rachel Reeves’ UK. I noted how this would cause a gnashing of teeth for those with #TrumpDerangementSyndrome including my friend the City PR legend and the undefeated winner of the title Champagne socialist of the Year from its launch back in 2001. Comrade Basham has responded with the kindest of emails to one of his fellow deluded lefties, cc’ing me in:

All those like our own Gary Newman, comrade Brian Basham and Euroloon Jonathan Price who are suffering from #TrumpDerangementSyndrome and who think that Rachel from Customer Services is attracting real investment into the UK better look away. For our country’s second largest drugs giant has $50 billion of shock news.

Will Rachel from Customer Services sell the UK's five billion quid's worth of bitcoin. I discuss. And I have had another thought about Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX). If anyone is still speaking to the bearded poltroon maybe they can clarify. Finally, as things stand there will be 90 folks plus a Welsh choir on the lawn at ShareStock on 6 September. If you want one of the last ten seats please book HERE

If something goes wrong with your organisation it is all too easy to blame it all on Rachel Reeves. She is useless, out of her depth and now just an object of ridicule. I do hope that all those journalists who lined up to sing her praises a year ago specifically because she was “Britain’s first female chancellor” now realise that ability not diversity is what matters when hiring. But for once I write in defence of the CV embellishing Rachel from Customer Services.

In an interview with the BBC due to go out later today, climate change secretary Ed Milliband says that he and chancellor Rachel Reeves are discussing a tax on the UK’s 9.2 million cows with the £5 billion proceeds used to accelerate the drive to net zero and to create thousands of green jobs as a bonus. “It is a win win win” said Milliband.

After years of awful Tory sleaze, Sir Keir Starmer promised that his Government would operate at the highest standard. In that vein I note the resignation of Wood Group (WG) CFO Arvind Balan.

I start with the scandal of Turquoise Mountain, then it is onto three new reasons to sack Rachel Reeves. Then it is Westminster Group (WSG) and the real threat of an AIM delisting, Eurasia (EUA), Supply@ME Capital (SYME) and Sealand Capital Galaxy (SCGL)

A day later the fire is still burning away but last night it roared. Sittng on an old chair was the pumpkin from Halloween, with hair added by Joshua to depict our chancellor Rachel, from accounts, Reeves. It is probably a hate crime but along with a paper marked fake CV she went up in smoke as you can see below.

My health better on one front at least, I took the kids to Tesco to stock up ahead of the bonfire night party. Then I carved the pumpkin as you can see below. Supper was a creamy pumpkin soup with cinnamon. The pumpkin gets another day of life before, tomorrow morning, it is transformed into chancellor Rachel Thieves ahead of a one way trip to the bonfire, fake CV attached.

The tradition already established here is that the pumpkin from Halloween is turned into a head of a “Guy” and burned on the bonfire which, this year, is on November 2. Each year the debate is fierce as to who the Guy will be.

I have already demonstrated that Rachel Reeves MP is perhaps the most economically illiterate person in Halitosis Hall, and that takes some doing. An obsession of politicians is always “picking winners” in the private sector. And so, yesterday, Ms Reeves joined the man who did not prosecute Jimmy Savile, visiting a company I have covered many times before…

The shadow chancellor does not seem to appreciate that she can only tax the profits of oil companies on their UK earnings and North Sea Operators already pay 75% tax. As the tweet below somehow she seems to think that adding to that tax will both cure inflation and slash fuel prices. I realise that there are many truly economically illiterate MPs, but this one could be Chancellor of the Exchequer by the end of next year.

The tweet below is from Labour shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves but I also cite Lib Dem leader Ed Davey for spouting equal tosh this morning. I start with BP (BP.) and windfall taxes. Then it is onto Tintra (TNT) with two more bombshell exposes today. My target price here is now officially 0p. Then it is onto another Dominic White, of the fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME) infamy, MaxRets Ventures (MAX). En passant I mention DeepVerge (DVRG).
