Because there is nothing in it for her? Also nasty capitalism shouldn't be encouraged by a good socialist.
N.b. Good socialists OBVS don't count sideboard purveyors or fancy gadgets as capitalism /s
Good socialists also don't
duck off to the most capitalist city in Scotland the minute lockdown's over to eat at chain restaurants and further
duck over local economies, but Jack's about as socialist as, idk, Tony Blair?
Gah, for the past few days I've been attempting *not* to do a big post about how Edinburgh is just the personal playground for wealthy southerners, and how Jack's little sojourn just exemplifies it. The
bleeping arrogance of it! The sheer ignorance. How people like her come up here and fill the pockets of those who have made the city unliveable. People who buy second homes because they pretend to have a ~natural affinity~ with the city, nothing to do with the fact that they can pretty much pay at least half their yearly mortgage by renting out for one month over the festival period. Pricing out the people who are actually from here. I've had one too many glasses of wine so I'm not going to continue, though I could, but I just can't get over the fact that she came here despite the fact we've been in really strict lockdown for so long, and she could have gone to 'heal' in her own
bleeping country. EDINBURGH ISN'T YOUR CITY JACK AND YOU DON'T BELONG HERE.
duck OFF.
