Martin Lewis (4)

A “Whoops-duckie-aren’t-I-important- shovel-the-makeup-on-dear cunting please for TV and radio’s favourite Old Mother Shipton of doom, Martin Lewis.

We all know life is tough and getting tougher, but do we really need his outpourings of sweaty doom-mongering every day:

BBC News Link

I am sure the media are combining to frighten people into THINKING bills will be much higher than they turn out to be, by picking a figure out of the air, just as they did with Covid death figures, to scare people shitless.

Like most people, I am concerned, so much so that I am thinking of making the spouse go out to work (does anyone need a barrage balloon in the South East?), but old poofy Martin huffing and puffing will do nothing good, except boost his own feelings of self-aggrandisement, and omniscience.

Interestingly his anti-government rhetoric seems to have had no effect on Rachel Reeves, Motormouth Rayner, or Dame Kweer – but perhaps he is still lying in High Gaitskill’s coffin.

  1. Bless him. He has that kind of face only a Mother can love. The rest of us probably just want to flatten it. I know the latter is my preferred choice.

  2. Don’t worry WC, Miles is on the way to his house now with a carrier bag full of bacon and dog shit, that’ll learn e’m!

  3. I see him ‘fronting’ an advert for himself next to Susannah Reid on the GMB desk the other evening…media really are giving him a platform aren’t they. Maybe if he wasn’t so ‘anti government’ he might not be quite as popular with them?

    Not quite sure, as a financial ‘advisor’ he is a full blown cunt, but the media are for massaging his ego.

  4. I’m not sure I agree.

    Plenty of people have the sense to budget wisely and plenty have no idea..so anyone who can offer practical advice for free is doing good as far as I can see.

    The gathering storm and it’s fallout is largely the government’s fault..

    They are badged Tory but have behaved just like Bliar in his “pomp”…unfettered spending,borrowing and money printing.

    The last 15 years of fiscal policy have been a sham organised by spivs.

    Now it’s all coming home to roost…so instead of admitting it’s all been a mess created by clueless cunts they seek to blame a war and promise more magic money tree giveaways.

    A disgusting charade.

    • What I’d like to see is tax cuts across the board at national and local level of at least 30% and let the axe fall where it needs to..

      Vanity projects.
      Foreign aid.
      EU payments.
      Legal aid.
      Bed and board for illegal immigrants.

      And so on.

      The stupid corrupt cunts.

      • Bu that’s the kind of rubbish that means the theives in charge can keep trousering wodges of cash so it’s not going to happen.

        The public sector wastes money like a drunk pissing away cheap wine and the reason? they don’t have to earn it.

        The BBC is the same.

      • Unkle Terry @

        I quite agree with both your comments. The more the shower of sh1te politicians are called out the better.

        Boris Fā€™ing Johnson was on the MSM yesterday, publicising his ā€œsurprise visit to Ukraineā€ (tearing himself away from a stack of expenses claims and sidling up to big company CEOs lining up lucrative directorships no doubt) to tell the little people that ā€œitā€™s worth shouldering the pain of higher energy bills to support Ukraineā€. Weā€™ll actually, no you total cunt, itā€™s not. Energy costs are soaring due to your misguided support of green subsidies and net zero, making bills twice what they should be, before you wound Putin up and caused him to start throttling gas supplies to the west. ā€œSanction Russiaā€ what a fucking joke. A two year old could have seen that they hold a better hand than us in terms of absolute commodities (maybe they wouldnā€™t have if we hadnā€™t been doing the ā€œnet zero thingā€ – thereā€™s irony for you). Boris fucking Johnson virtue signaling with taxpayers hard earned like thereā€™s no tomorrow (which there isnā€™t for this cunt – totally unaccountable for however much tax money he spaffs away furthering his own cause over the next couple of weeks).

        As for what should be done, but wonā€™t (Truss wonā€™t be any better and Slimak would be even worse) top of the list should be green subsidies and the net zero commitment. Binning these wouldnā€™t be a cost taxpayers would have to pay back (no doubt it would cause pain for the politicuntā€™s friends that are making Ā£Ā£Ā£ā€™s out of it all – the main reason nothing will happen) and would bring energy bills down from the current stratospheric levels to where they were before.

        Calling out politicuntsšŸ‘ Next best thing to hanging them from lamposts with barbed wire IMO.

    • Advice like ‘Don’t shop when you are hungry’ is utter cuntishness. If I’m not hungry, it’s because I’ve eaten, food, that I’ve bought.

      Changing insurance companies, leccy companies, could save up to 600 quid a year?

      A) Will it fuck.
      B) What practical use is 2 quid a week?

      Save diesel by not driving as much? Yeah right, because I often fancy a spin on the M25 at rush hour.

      This cunt needs a punch in the face. Then rinse and repeat.

      • Not shopping when you’re hungry is good advice. I always massively overspend if I do because too many things look really appealing, stuff I wouldn’t normally give a 2nd glance. And Ā£12 a week is 20% of our food shop, so it’s of great practical use to us. Most things are relative.

      • I’m not so sure not shopping when hungry is good advice actually. If I go shopping when I’m not hungry I’m not really interested in buying any food as I don’t fancy it……then when I’m back at home a few hours later and I am hungry, I’ve got fuck all in the fridge!

      • Moggie,

        It’s terrible that your weekly budget for food is 60 quid. I sympathise.

        But…. The answer to these problems is not spend less, because it’s not possible without going cold/hungry/homeless/car-less, the answer is stop devaluing the Pound by printing shedloads of them, backed by interest bearing debt. Stop pissing money away in Ukraine on a war which cannot be won. Stop ALL immigration. Stop pissing it away on useless trannies and poofs. Stop the eco-loonery.

        I could go on, but what’s the point? We’re fucked.

      • So Britain is going to give Ukraine 56 million quid per month. Why? Joe Biden has already given them… how much? 100 billion? He just gave them 3 billion today. But we Brits are supposed to tighten our wallets for this Zelesnkyy cretin? Sick of this Ukraine shite, get round a table and do peace talk, already. Shower of cunts.

  5. A Red Sea Pedestrian….his financial “advice” is probably a way of conning people into investing in some scam that he has organised….possibly runs a gang of pick-pocketing street urchins too.

    Still refuses to apologise for killing the Baby Jesus and drinking his blood.

    A fucking wrong’un if ever I saw one.

  6. Dont like the smug cunt. The BBC News tells me daily that we’re all doomed so dont need him.

  7. His show used to be (not on at the moment) all about switching, in the not so distant past when the energy sector was awash with cowboys. The pricing was a race to the bottom so energy has been cheap (ish) for years and now the shit has hit the fan. No more switching, there is fuck all left to switch.
    What he says, no more tools, ok so fuck off, you ainā€™t any use.

    The leftie types bang on about insulating homes, great crack on and get people to pay to have their homes insulated, oh wait they mean the tax payer will pay, more help for those on low income, oh yes the tax payer again.
    Use less energy, use it wisely, save some money during the summer when the bills are lower, but that wonā€™t happen because the fucking great unwashed entitled cunts in this country think ā€˜someone elseā€™ should and will pay. Any cunt who has had two weeks in the sun and claims poverty can fuck right off.

    The only intervention should be for those people who through no fault of their own canā€™t work and cut the fucking green levy for everyone. Get the country energy secure, it doesnā€™t matter how much it costs if it isnā€™t available, that is where the government should be investing money.

    The markets will reset at some point and if it means buying Russian gas and oil then fucking get on with, it wonā€™t make any difference to the war in Ukraine, get the market working again.

    • Fuck the Ukraine, I couldn’t give a fuck what’s happening in the former Soviet block…fuck, most of them are here already scrounging anyway.

      The problem is, fucking useless fat cunt Boris has backed us into an ethical corner and now it’s impossible to get out.

      I can truly say that in my fifty years on the planet that Boris was the most inept, corrupt and useless polititian I’ve ever seen and he had some stiff competiotion like Brown and Blair. I has high hopesm of him but he turned out to be just like people said…fucking useless.

      • Spot on Spanky. Boris fucks off to the House of Lords soon and we’ll get another useless cunt in his place.

      • Support for Ukraine is the one thing that Johnson got right. We appease Russia and China at our peril.

      • I agree whole heartedly.

        I must admit I am one of those allowed to vote for our next PM, although I won’t because it would be like choosing which bollock you are happy to lose.

        I did have a hope Boris when elected would say was the silent majority were thinking, and tell the EU, immigrants and scroungers to fuck off, thinking the ‘buffoon, jokey persona’ was just a veneer and deep down he would shake things up….unfortunately, that wasn’t a veneer, but very much the person he is.

        Unfortunately, he has also promoted cabinet ministers who are popular with him, rather than competent.

        It’s a shit show.

    • Can’t agree about buying Russian oil and gas Soi. I f we can work out a way of living without it they would soon have a GDP akin to some sub-Saharan state which would be good news for the rest of us.

      However I agree with your sentiment about two weeks in the sun. I saw a television programme quite recently offering advice on how to survive if you’re hard up. On a list of proposed essentials was holidays. WTF? Essentials are air, water, food and in this climate, shelter. As someone said, essentials to most people are things their grandparents didn’t know existed.

      • Russia have a market in India and China and some EU countries have already opted out of the Russian energy embargo, Germany are shitting themselves already with the down time on the gas line 1 for ā€˜maintenanceā€™.
        Countries have to play the game, take Russian gas and oil, for now. Russian mentality, if they are hit in the pocket it will only make them more determined.

    • That’s what angers me about Lewis, Sick of It. I can remember him saying Oi vey, go with Carrot Energy already – you will save ten pence a week already, then when Carrot and all the other little companies went bust they were shackled to Centrica or E-on vastly overpriced tarriffs. So much for his “advice “and Lewis’s act was finished. Now he pretends to be a Keir Starmer disciple, thou I suspect at the end of the day, all Martin Lewis cares about is Martin Lewis.. He is a sort of male Carole Vorderman – putting his name to anything for a few and lots of lovely publicity.

  8. About two years ago we had a SIM from Lebara on recommendation from his web site. The deal required an email address. Immediately the deal was implemented our email received an absolute torrent of spam, I’m talking in the order of fifty an hour with no sign of it stopping. We didn’t open any and set about deleting them en bloc but they were actually arriving more quickly than we could delete them! We ended up closing that email address and setting up a new one. Next thing we had was a phone call from a company with which my wife had held a mail order account for many years. Someone had ordered an Apple device on her account priced at Ā£2,000 but the company recognised it was outside her normal pattern of purchases. That account was also closed and a new one created.

    We emailed him to tell him about these events and received a reply so anodyne and non committal it might have come from an MP.

    • The cunt who owns Lebara is some stani who lives not far form me in a massive fuck off palace worth about 10 million quid. Dirty p*ki bastard.

  9. The missus was watching him a few months back and he was talking about claiming spouses tax allowance. Seeing as this claim could be backdated I went ahead and got a few grand by applying online (5/10) mins.
    He’s alright by me for that reason alone.
    I know I should have already known of this tax allowance but I didn’t.

    • I had precisely the same experience – right down to my missus watching his programme. Managed to claim back nearly two grand. Told my neighbour and he did the same.
      Lewis would be fine if it werenā€™t for the irritating OTT manner in which he presents himself on TV. He certainly knows what heā€™s talking about. I can’t bear him on TV but his website is very informative and well worth checking out if you have questions relating to finance.

  10. I have a lot of fallen trees near me that the local council have ignored that I’ll log up for this winter. My multi-fuel stove will keep me warm. I’m stocking up on coal too before it’s banned. Once the wood and coal is gone I might have to go and find some peacefuls to chuck on if things get too bad. That said, I could save the wood and coal and start with the peacefuls, just so I’m doing my bit.

  11. Without changing into a moaning socialist cunt this energy pricing is a cunt. Pay for what you use. Then anyone can budget but increases in standing charges is fucking wrong.
    All standing charges leccy Gas phone is fucking theft. You pay for installation meters line rental etc how the fuck is it right that you continue to pay for these in perpetuity.

    Cunts
    ps so is Martin (yawn , boring cunt) Lewis

  12. I can’t go with this cunting, he is alright in my book, I have actually followed some of his advice and he has saved me quite a bit of money, he does speak up and say some sense,

    • I would have sworn he was a brown hatter – perhaps she is just for show – like Mrs Philip Schofield or Mr. Jess Phillips.

  13. Thereā€™s certainly something about him I donā€™t like, but at least he appears to be on our side. If anything, Iā€™d say his campaigning on the energy price issue doesnā€™t go far enough.
    Of course heā€™ll appear as anti government, itā€™s them that contributed to this fucking mess in the first place. And their flat refusal to suspend green levies, fuel vat and the inability to see that even people not on benefits will end up in the shit gives him and us more reason to be so.
    Is he a panic monger? Weā€™ll know for sure in a few weeks time.

  14. I’m going to make a mint by publishing a book: How to Make a Mint
    Chapter one:
    Write a book on how take a mint.

  15. The wholesale energy price is 40% of the retail price. Alas, our parasitical overlords may never be inconvenienced by squealing plebs, and I say quite right too. The sooner Vladolf accepts Globalhomo, neoliberalism and the right sort of oligarch the better, fucking nutter.

  16. This Shylock bum boy is always coming out with some money saving crap that is so minimal that itā€™s not worth considering.

    • Absolutely. I looked into switching energy suppliers a few years ago off the back of one of his recommendations. Ā£20 a fucking year it would have saved me at best. Not worth switching on the laptop.

  17. This mincing cunt’s wife is a bit of all right – I bet she’s a right naughty minx in the bedroom.

    • She does, but he, on the other hand looks a bit vanilla…lights out, missionarry, socks still on.

      She needs a night with me……she would be very sore in the morning in places she didn’t know she had places.

      • I’m pretty vanilla too. Anything past 5 minutes is just work.
        Fortunately Mrs. Curtains is vanilla too.

  18. I once sent Martin Lewis an email:

    “Yo, what’s up with all the expensive rent-boys these days? 300 qud for a nice piece of twink ass? Fucking extortion, man! So hook me up with some numbers of where I can get some lower-prices ass or I’m gonna have start abducting waifs and strays, Marty.”

    No reply. Money Saving Expert, my arse.

  19. The Martin Lewis Web page guided me to making some incredibly lucrative changes/investments.
    So I’ve no beef with him.
    Good bloke, as far as I’m concerned.

  20. “Don’t fix you energy rate and wait, the energy price cap is on your side” oh guess what, foot in mouth syndrome.

  21. I’d like to Un-Cunt Lewis please?

    Due to reading his advice over 12+ years ago, I claimed back all the ppi I was owed for fuck all (cost of a recorded delivery letter) and got over Ā£15,000 back.

    Many moons ago I was a reckless cunt of a Baron with my finances and got myself in alot of debt. Suffice to say I changed my ways and got myself out of debt. I never knew about the ppi thing, until I read a Martin Lewis article and realized I’d been royally dicked by the banks for years.

    I got my arse in gear, followed his clear simple and FREE advice and got it all my ppi back.

    Long story short, this pay back gave me money I never had and instead of spunking it on good booze and cheap slags as I would have years before, I learned how to invest it and compound the money into the pretty debt free penny I have today.

    Gotta thank Martin Lewis for that and I owe the bloke a Pint. If I have to ‘cunt’ someone on this occasion, it would most definitely be myself, for being a reckless and foolish cunt for many years with my finances.

    Lessons learned eh?
