We all know no-one should profit from antisemitic hate speech right? Well, tell that to the @JewishChron.

In
their media pack they advertise that they've run (at least) one event with Nigel Farage as a speaker. The JC is using their connection with an antisemite to make money.

Important bits first. The media pack has a 2020 calendar so it is probably just over a year old. Which means, all of our examples below bar one had been published when they tried to make money from an event with Nigel Farage. They knew what he had said and didn’t care.
You want one example? Here you go. The JC knew and even called him out on it. So why does their press pack, probably made just months after this and made to get people to advertise with them, show off their link to him?

What kind of advertisers do they want??
For anyone skim reading, let us make this very clear, using words from the Campaign Against Antisemitism. @antisemitism.
Ok, so now the attention-grabbing bits are done, lets dig deeper.

Is Nigel actually an antisemite, Geoffrey hears someone ask in terribly bad faith. Well, lets explore his history of antisemitism through the JC’s own articles!
Here is the JC clarifying that some of what Nige says falls into antisemitic conspiracies, before we begin. Remember that even they have qualified these things as antisemitic.

Now lets work backwards, shall we?
Here is Nigey in 2020 blaming disease on the Jews – classic trope mate, never gets old.
Seven months earlier the JC had reported on Nige.
Here is another article just a month previous showing more of his anti-Jewish racism. I mean we’d probably argue that three articles laying out Nige pushing antisemitic tropes in 12 months and 29 days is probably not great.
Here’s Nigel being nice about Orban, whose comments the JC also thinks might be antisemitic (because they are and he is). From the same article.
So why are the JC happy to host him? Do they think that the APPG on Antisemitism is wrong, or do they not care?
Not a ringing endorsement from the JC for Nige here, talking about globalists with renowned conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.
Farage was called out by the BoD for that.
His followers aren't great either - In 2018 the JC published this account of antisemitism and misogyny after Farage shared a Jewish woman’s criticism of him on Twitter.
Loud and clear in 2017.
In May 2019 the JC published this in an opinion piece from Jonathan Friedland.
He's referred to as the UKIP leader in their media pack. Here is a reminder of what the JC were reporting on about UKIP. When they were a thing, had some distinctly unsavoury allies.
Moving on from JC sources, the Campaign Against Antisemitism has a page on Farage.
They make it very clear what they think of him.
The Guardian reported in late 2019 on his six interviews with an antisemite who called Trump impeachment a 'jew-coup'.

As the DeFi bull market continues, some brutally honest tips for new founders fundraising in crypto.

👇


1/ The discount you offer to strategic investors is both to account for the risk of an unlaunched product, but also as compensation for continued value add and support.

So make sure you know the investor will support you and not leave you on read once the docs are signed!

2/ Having someone on your cap table/ token allocation is as important as hiring.

You wouldn't hire someone just because they are influencers on Twitter- you do your reference checks and find evidence of value add from other companies the investor has invested in.

3/ Don't trust, verify.

Many investors will promise you the world when they're trying to get on your cap table.

Talk to founders they backed to see how much of it is bullshit. Ask them about how the investor was there for them during hard times.

4/ Don't just go for "name brand" funds because you want the brand.

Sure, it's great validation, but optimize for fit, not vanity.

However, I do think many well-known VCs are good actors, especially those with roots in successful trad VCs. They have a rep for a reason!
1/ I'm thrilled to announce the launch of my new website, a one-stop shop for all the content I'm creating.

There you'll find links to all my podcasts, the TTMYGH newsletter, and other exciting future projects.

2/ In 2020, I reignited my passion for interviewing brilliant people by launching The Grant Williams Podcast in various forms, including The End Game, The Super Terrific Happy Hour, and The Narrative Game.


3/ Starting February 1, I'm taking the bold step of moving these podcasts completely behind a paywall.

For the very affordable price of only $10 a month, listeners can gain access to the Copper Tier of
https://t.co/fxUfH8maI4, which includes all current & future podcasts.


4/ Why am I doing this? First and foremost, I aspire to create VALUABLE content. By definition, if something is priced at $0, it isn’t valuable. The time, effort and creativity that goes into these episodes is substantial. To keep doing them properly, they can no longer be free.

5/ I also strongly believe content creators should be able to make a living creating content. If everything is free, that’s not possible. I never seriously considered accepting outside sponsors – complete integrity is too critical to me.
Inflation is coming, inflation is coming!

Last month I wrote about the distinction between long-term secular inflation and shorter-term cyclical inflation

It has been clear for several months that we are in the middle of a cyclical rise in


The full thread can be reviewed here:


Today's PPI report should have been expected to surprise to the upside as the leading indicators of inflation have been screaming to the upside for months!

Here is the ISM prices paid index, cumulated into a growth rate

Industrial commodity prices have also seen a major acceleration for months.

So today's PPI report was in line with the leads, suggesting that we have a cyclical upturn in inflation that is * primarily concentrated in the manufacturing sector *

This is a key point.

I think a plausible explanation is that whatever Corbyn says or does, his critics will denounce - no matter how much hypocrisy it necessitates.


Corbyn opposes the exploitation of foreign sweatshop-workers - Labour MPs complain he's like Nigel

He speaks up in defence of migrants - Labour MPs whinge that he's not listening to the public's very real concerns about immigration:

He's wrong to prioritise Labour Party members over the public:
