The Capitalist: Tory wonks find new way to waste time with Kemi video game
Super Kemi, the London Stock Exchange's new bell and toasting the Toast Awards; catch up on the latest gossip in The Capitalist.
Tory wonks have created a web game called "Super Kemi," which is currently circulating in the Commons. The game follows a similar structure to "Super Mario Bros." but with frontbench characters, including Kemi Badenoch. Players must navigate six worlds of red tape, using power-ups such as "Team Kemi star," which gives them unstoppable abilities for eight seconds, a "cheap power" item that allows them to throw "REPEAL" scrolls, and the "Golden Rule" power-up that enables them to take an extra hit.
Obstacles to avoid include the £100,000 cliff tax trap and net zero subsidies. The game aims to make the political process more engaging and entertaining. Meanwhile, the London Stock Exchange (LSE) celebrated the 40th anniversary of the Big Bang by bringing back the market's bronze bell, allowing founders and executives to ring it in celebration.
The event also marked the start of the annual Toast the City Awards, where over 400 people gathered to honor the city's hospitality venues and workers. Matt Tebbutt of Saturday Kitchen delivered a speech, and awards were given for Best Bar, Best Restaurant, and other recognitions.
