"The billionaire leader, a huge fan of Brexit and with a team of suited yes-men
surrounding him, had sidelined the corrupt, monied elites who had long
controlled the system. He was a new broom, who had come to brush the halls
clean. A decade of failure would be turned around. Old glories would be
restored.
There would, alas, need to be sacrifices. Staff would be let go. Perks and
benefits removed. Sentimental ties with old friends cut. There would need to be
a refresh of leadership too. And if the new guys were no good then they would
have to be placed on the scrapheap too. No time to waste. This was
accelerationism. What could go wrong?
…
But enough about Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his flailing takeover of Manchester
United."
