that thems will actual originality , creativity and business flair that have been priced out of London might be more useful than Nathan Barley ?

But hipsters just piss away their trust funds, they don't create jobs or generate wealth.

We need the people the hipsters chased out of our inner cities. People who do actual stuff instead of just selling overpriced tat to each other.

There are certain exceptions, like the Brewdog lot (big brewing facility opened in Scotland).

Not exactly an innovative business model though is it? Brewing and selling beer? At best they'll just take market share off of someone else.

They don't make flying unicycles either but that's rather by the by.

When all the city jobs fuck off to Paris and Frankfurt post-Brexit all the shiny offices in the city can be repurposed as pop-up boutiques and ironic cafes. The Gherkin can become a nutty evangelical megachurch, and the former churches or cinemas in the suburbs occupied by nutty churches can go back to being carpet shops again. Everything back in alignment.

"The hipster is a capitalist."

"This nexus of art and technology is how Britain will pay her way in the 21st century."

"We must define Brexit Britain as open and optimistic, gregarious and global."

I don't understand how it's possible for somebody to go around saying things like this in public - was he behind chicken wire or something?

Mr Hancock vowed to “drive open diversity” in the creative industries and to “blast British culture out of its heartlands of WC1”.

Is he really talking about the Bloomsbury Group? Does he not realise thats ancient history now?

If their shops keep getting smashed up then yeah, it will be a great boost for the building trade & insurance market.

You don't know that. Maybe they'll find some innovative and entrepeneurial way to substantially increase alcohol consumption in Scotland...
