I know. It wasn’t a dig at you but that was how it was perceived.

Some of us did at the time. That’s another story though. A small incursion? Like Czechoslovakia back in 1938/39. We (the West) should learn from history rather than dismiss it as ‘in the past’ Russia won’t stop if they defeat Ukraine. Worryingly, Hungary and now Slovakia have Putin friendly leaders.

I first knew about this issue from the BBC on the 1st March. They have reported on it many times. Again this morning. Anyway. Ms. Reeves promising to ensure everyone pays their fare share of tax. Can’t argue with that.

This non story as you say, has been going on for weeks. She’s been asked questions about it on tv numerous times. Not sure how it will all end but it’s worth discussing isn’t it?

If she resigns, that’ll just leave Starmer. I think more will be needed to run the country. 😊

‘Those of a less mentally affluent persuasion’ Quote from someone who voted out! Let’s move on. 😊

I think the issue is capital gains tax.

£1500?

No idea. What tax has Rayner dodged?

Stop listening to people. They tell lies. Make your own mind up.👍

A man said to a woman, if I give you a million dollars, will you gave sex with me? Well, yes she said. Will you have sex with me for one hundred dollars? NO! said the woman. What kind of girl do you think I am? We already know what kind of girl you are , he said, we are now just negotiating the price. A tax dodger is a tax dodger. Some dodge more than others. Tax dodging is commonplace. Lying in politics is also commonplace. If you get caught lying and dodging, then resign as many have.

Have you ever heard the George Burns joke?

Mm. look at the numbers. 61k Rayner. 55k Melania. I’m assuming that’s Mrs Trump. Maybe you should spend more time looking at UK politics rather than US. It’s the cookies . 👍

Hopefully those Rhino skins are thick. It’s election year!

I don’t even like Spurs or Forest.😊

This is nearly ready. Not a hospital but it will be a big addition to the town. Bolton Institute of Medical Sciences.

Of course they are FFS. I’m guessing you’ve not been anywhere near a council estate in your life.

My parents waited 3 years before we got one. We didn’t have to compete with people coming over from France then though. I’d have been happy to swap places with them and live in France. We lived in Little Hulton then.

I’ve highlighted a point in your post that highlights a fundamental difference to attitudes today compared with my experience. Personal responsibility is not a phrase that is commonly used today.

Seems to have upset some Scottish folk though. Or maybe they aren’t Scottish. They really could be from anywhere in the world. That’s Social Media. That’s why this bill will never work.

How to piss off the English/British. Welcome. https://amp.theguardian.com/politics/2024/mar/30/starmer-faces-discontent-as-labour-mps-criticise-election-flyers-union-jacks

I know it’s not new news but it feels like when Willie Morgan joined us. Maybe it’s just me. 😊 Welcome Garry. Summer starts tomorrow 👍

😊 Not often that I watch stuff like that but it made me smile. Over 4000 complaints so far on this new bill. Mainly including JK Rowling. She ain’t even Scottish! ( A lot about the first minister also) The Scots used to complain about Westminster ‘trialling’ prospective policies on the good Scottish people. They seem to have taken it upon themselves to do the very same thing.😊

😊 These edits are doing my head in. While I was replying, and answering questions on the Chase, the post was changed! Glad to see the new ‘reason’ though. 👏 to the Mods.

It actually says. S&P Global. Is it wrong? Better than Wiki. Although wiki is usually right. Unlike you.
