  • Now he says he’s the only person on the left who really understands the British economy – and the people who wield the power

    Humble, huh?

    Stevenson still makes a lot of money trading, which he does “to demonstrate to myself that I’m not insane. A lot of people can say pessimistic things, but not a lot of them can make hundreds of thousands of pounds every year on financial markets. I don’t just say these things; I bet on them. And I make money every year. You can’t do that if you’re not right. If you made every economist who chats shit on the media bet their own personal money on what they’re saying, there’d be a lot less bullshit on the news.”

    If he makes money off properties, gold and stocks without realising that that affects the housing crisis, the environment with gold mining, or there’s no ethical approach to what kind of companies he gets stocks from… He is still part of the problem. I don’t care how much he says he’s on the left.
