If I were a lefty

I think I\’d ask Eoin to stop blogging you know. Here\’s the latest. I have chosen to look at the profit of 8 major UK corporations. In the chart above I focus on HSBC, Vodafone and Barclays. These...

What?

VAT accounts for 35% of the income of those in the bottom fifth of society but it accounts for 15% of the income of those in the top fifth of society. Eh? Eoin, this simply cannot be true. Imagine that...

A question from Eoin that we can answer

This is absolutely friggin bonkers. Why should we pay more than £20bn a year in Housing Benefit payments when you could build more than 150,000 affordable homes for that price. Because there are 4.9...

Oh dear Eoin

I have spoken before how oil prices have climbed 400% in the last ten years for UK customers. But I am struck by how little coal prices have increased. You\’re using the wrong numbers laddie. We in...

This just in from Eoin

Clearly the state needs to withdraw tax relief from the banking sector. Allowing them to offset the previous years losses, or allowing them to offset income tax payments against corporation tax...

Gosh, this is interesting from Eoin

There are currently 2.5 million people unemployed. The government will, by logic, need to create 2.5m jobs to eradicate this by 2015. I\’d not actually realised that only governments can create jobs.

What a shocker!

 We are taught by Cameron to regard small businesses as the engine room of entrepreneurial spirit in the UK. We are led to believe that their inventions, wealth creation and profits lead to employment...

Oh dear Eoin

The above graph shows the farm-gate price of 1 litre of milk. It is now at an all time high since records began in 1970. Facepalm. He\’s not adjusted for inflation. 1971 price of milk at farm gate was...

Eoin and the boundaries of knowledge

Ironically, the UK imports large amounts of fuel as well. The seeming stupidity of exporting large amounts of fuel while at the same time importing it will make little sense to most. If large numbers...

More facepalm from Eoin!

The graph above shows the productivity of coal since 1980. It is measured by calculating the output of each worker in thousands of pounds. In the 1980s, it was much more labour intensive than it is...

Our Eoin\’s too dim to choose a cup of coffee

Therefore no one should have a choice of which surgeon replaces their hip. I have to admit that this logic doesn\’t exactly stun with its shiny convincingness. But it is the argument that he\’s using.

So, can Eoin read?

The graph above shows the percentage of Corporation Tax raised as a proportion of GDP by Ken Clarke in 1996-7 & George Osborne in 2012-3. No laddie. The figures are here. You appear to be using...

Eoin Clarke really is a lying little tosspot

Here. The cash paid out in NHS negligence claims has risen since the Tories took power. This must be because the Tories are evil bastards gutting the NHS. The graph above shows the annual grand total...

Eoin\’s latest gorgeous post

Quite a corker. Given the monstering he\’s obviously getting from the libel lawyers a little bit of advice. Instead of accusing people of doing something illegal just insult them. Tell em\’ to fuck...
