But he went to a public school and talks posh so he’s a soft target for straw man arguments like this.
The 1st is not incorrect at all, as the pound has fallen in value since the referendum, and as SCM is a heavy investor in developing markets. this will have helped profits increase (for obvious reasons)

He's a soft target because he's a nasty piece of work.. his voting record on things such as benefit increases pays homage to this

oh, and this
