Two fossil-fuel billionaires with close ties to Donald Trump bought millions of shares in the [LNG export] company they co-founded just days after a meeting with senior White House officials, who then issued a key regulatory permit that helped expand the company’s fortunes in Europe.

    These people have a fucking disease…

    How are you a billionaire and yet “I need more, let’s lobby the White House”

    Ffs… Meanwhile “you’re entitled if you think one income should be enough to own a single home.”

      They absolutely are.

      I’m on 50k, wife is on a similar amount. My wife and I have a nice house, we can go on a nice holiday once or twice a year, we have newish cars and can afford savings/hobbies etc.

      We feel very fortunate, there are many people who have less than us

      I cannot fathom having a billion quid, a being two people living in a fucking mansion and having a private jet/yacht/supercars/whores and thinking “huh I really wish I had more”.

      Cunts.

    Why does the man in the photo look like a version of David Lynch for whom medication works?
