What is that "mate" of mine Sadiq Khan trying to achieve ?

 

You lost you demented little cretin, get over it and concentrate on your job you terrorist sympathiser.

Can someone explain how we actually fix the issue? 

If say a thousand are arriving today, how many arrived in France, Spain or Italy? Does anyone know?

And if we are pissed off about it, how about the rest of continental Europe?

How on earth can this be "fixed"? 

Nigel will sort it all out. He's not said how yet, and none of his supporters have a clue, but he will.

To be fair, it's not just Nigel, I would like to know how anyone could sort this out and it is only going to get worse.

By voting for Nigel. What are you not getting? As for it getting worse - the current Government have got 4 more years to implement their policies, so we'll see.

Smash the gangs innit. 
 

Lads on a footy forum said it couldn’t be done that way, but Keir and the many who fell for his simple 3 word slogan thought it could.

From June 2024.

I'm afraid you'll have to wait until June 2029 to see if Sir Keir's policies have made a difference. What are Nigel's plans again?

People blame the Tories, they also want to know what Reform with their 5 mps will do. Why doesn’t anyone (apart from a select few) ever question this government 🤷‍♂️

Now this is you being naive mate, sorry but it is absolutely rife and not just your mates from the Metropole .

I should have added the caveats of...if you want to grow your business and have nice things with a nice house etc.

I could limp by on cash payments no problem and pay fuck all tax. 

But if you want nice vans, holidays and houses you can't get away with fuck all nowadays.

What planet are you living on? They're getting battered in the media every single day. Starmer can't even bend down to pick up some papers Trump has dropped without getting pilloried for it.

This.

Folk in full time employment probably get away with more doing foreigners after work and at weekends.

Surely that's a good thing and you should be all for it? You're honest, so the banks trust you.

Anyway. Now you’ve mentioned it.

Because they're being widely backed to win the next General Election, and you're a Reform voter.

Are you saying I voted Reform at the last election?

No. While you denied voting for them in the General because of an impossible bet, you have been quite open about the Locals.

Never understood the resentment of PAYE hating on self employed and vice versa. If the other is so good then crack on and get on it. I couldn’t think of anything worse than running my own business but my missus doesn’t wanna work for anyone else. Both mindsets are needed.

I didn’t deny it. I admitted I voted for them. It’s the only time I could have voted for them. I just want you to admit it. Not sure what ‘open’ means.

Of course but you absolutely know guys doing it. Down your local at 4pm every day sinking loads because their stated earn is enough for them, they already have their house and van sorted.

I am only showing the flip side of the coin that's all.

who the fuck gets furious about that

My mum isn't impressed by the Albanian takeover over Horwich 

Barbers, pound shops,  vape shops and cafes 

All owned by the same Albanian who started off as a pot washer at Leo's 

Most are shut most of the time, when another gets shut down, another reopens 

All just a front 

She's lived there 50+ years, and finds it really sad to see it going down the pan in this way

That's a lack of proper policing surely Jeff?

You’re falling into the ‘Tradies’ rhetoric. A typical prejudiced view. Cash in hand and all that. There are many, probably the majority of small businesses, sat behind a computer as a director of a company paying themselves a  wage of less than £12,500 a year and paying little tax or NI.
