Don't really know - never go out that way unless I'm driving to Ikea and Gallions Reach (which to be fair I have to do this weekend) But it does go from ours to Kings Cross Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may reduce projected or anticipated profits but I’m not getting my head around it becoming a loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea. I’ll stop quoting the Guardian and go back to the Daily Mail. At least people just dismiss the source without asking me questions.😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do the thick muppets not realise that all that will happen is that these mega wealthy people will simply fuck off elsewhere if they feel persecuted. They aren't going to stick around and fill up the coffers of the Treasury. Sadly, the Conservatives can now be labelled 'Labour Light'. A sad shame.
