As a note, the guys who publish these mashups are called PoliticsJOE and they have a great YouTube channel for independent British news.

They also for some reason publish these.

Not that I dislike the videos, that’s how I found the channel.

It’s just they make up maybe 5% of the posted content (the rest of which is actual journalism lol).

For the non-Brits, who is this guy?

The worst kind of conservative, notorious for things like sleeping in parliament, and being vocally and actively anti-choice while profiteering from the sale of abortion pills, but gets away with much much worse.
Smarmy cunt.

Incidentally, the hedge fund he co-founded just announced it was shutting down: https://www.bbc.com/news/business-67648262

Is there actual reason to think this guy had something like a short position on the British economy before contributing to Brexit or is it just a meme

There’s every reason to get believe the worst about this guy, he’s so evil he would be out of place as a comic book villain. Well, maybe unless it was one of those edgy political comics.

That said the cash is just a side effect and the actual reason he put this together, as i understand it, is to get revenge for Britain banning fox hunting.

There’s the small matter of his Dad, a former editor of The Times, having written a book about how to profit from disaster capitalism.

I’m pretty sure it’s just because they dislike immigrants

The elite love immigrants. Why pay a stuck up English cunt £35000pa when you can get a desperate migrant that’s willing to live in your slum and work for minimum wage?

Immigration was just a useful tool to turn the plebs against the EU whilst the elite worked to protect the game that they’ve rigged against the average man.

Exactly. Don’t mistake conservative politicians for their knuckle dragging electorate.
