Well I stopped brewing when I moved house, as I lost my old fridge/freezer I used to use, and at under a £1 for 4 cans, it was not worth all the hassle to home brew. But the tax hike changed that, I only brew in cool weather, as can only heat, can't cool the fermentor, but have around 20 pints bottled and 80 pints ready to bottle so that should last a reasonable time.
I do tend to drink as a shandy to reduce the alcohol, but to me hiking up the price of low alcohol beer, but leaving the high alcohol stuff as it was, was a clear sign they wanted us to partake in high alcohol beer.
At the moment drink a temperance liqueur, chocolate, the temperance movement wanted us to move from alcohol to chocolate which at the time had a lot of cocaine in it, so now a Welsh liqueur with both, can't beat that.

I believe it was intended to ensure socialism forever. They get to vote for their own mob, which will always be socialist as so many are professional benefits claimants. Plus they also get to contribute to us having a higher chance of getting lefties too.
They get their cake and they get to eat ours too.
If Wales and Scotland cleared off then Labour would never get voted in again in England, we're too sensible.
We should either be one single UK or separate countries. There's no need for any devolution above councils. It's all a concocted mess.

Maybe, but all set up by the English. When we had the Brexit vote Scotland wanted to remain, they knew the bigger, the better, but it was the South who swung it, for what ever reason England wants to get rid of the principalities.
Labour wanted devolution, as it benefits Labour.
It means that everyone in Wales and Scotland, where they're more likely to vote Labour, gets two votes instead of the one that English voters get.
Socialism forever for Wales and Scotland, plus a higher chance of socialism for England than we'd have without Wales and Scotland.

Voices from the right blame Musslims for voting for the “wrong” party, now it’s Scotland Wales who are blamed. Shades of totalitarianism in this reasoning, next these groups will not be allowed to vote for the “wrong” candidates.
Utter nonsense.
If England only was allowed to vote twice, for both the UK and again for England, and guaranteeing a Tory/Reform right-biased majority for England then I'm sure the lefties would have something to say about it.
If additional money was spent in England only then there'd probably be riots in other nations. But somehow us English are expected to quietly get on with it.
Unfortunately, up here the SNP keep touting independence (albeit indirectly to a degree) as being a cure-all for Scotland's socioeconomic ills. If you watch them on political tv progs, they will ALWAYS blame their failings on the fact they 'don't have enough levers to pull' rather than taking at least some of the blame.
Same as Reform voters and boat people.
Quietly? Farage is a booming empty vessel
Farage isn't suggesting an English parliament. But I suspect that policy will start to at least acknowledge the existence and interests of the majority. Which some currently pampered minorities won't like.

I know my son was for a time a boat person, and yes living on a narrow boat means no fixed abode, and does cause problems, even renewing ones driving licence they want a fixed address.
So yes, the Shropshire union canal does run out of Wales, so the person could be in England one day and Wales another, I don't know how they go on with prescription charges etc.
But this is a minority group. As to how it relates to Reform voters, not a clue.
My post was in response to diyfun stating Scots wrongly or falsely, blaming all their ills on the (lack of) independence thing. Reform and thier dribbling followers blame all the UK ills on small boat arrivals ('boat people'). Same naive idiocy.
I'm not sure how you relate canal boat dwellers to that either.

Well a canal boat is a small boat, oddly living with no fixed abode with a narrow boats is not seen as doing the same with a caravan. But people who live on a boat I suppose will be called boat people, people using a boat to get from A to B are passenger or crew.
Are you too young to remember Vietnam?
