For the non-Brits, who is this guy?
Jacob Rees-Mogg: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob_Rees-Mogg
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.
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.
I’m pretty sure it’s just because they dislike immigrants
One does not exclude the other.
