I felt particularly disgusted when one shop worker/owner said with apparent pride 'we have customers (of vapes and cigs) as young as 12'. And if true, the guy who charges them £250 a month to use his name on official documents is raking it in, I think one guy said he does this for around 200...

The only thing that slightly disappoints me about this picture is the fourth green container half way up the rack. It's squint :( As you know I, along with many others on here, think you are perfection personified. Therefore, I won't be the only one to be slightly surprised to see the squint...

I think she's already a dead (wo)man walking tbh.

Whilst not without its faults, I think the BBC on the whole (i.e. not just its news output) remains something to be valued. The funding model definitely needs looked at, however it still puts out a lot of quality content. I'm still happy to use the BBC as one of my news sources. I suspect...

I think what many are quite rightly concerned about is if taxes are going up, how much of the additional tax take will we actually see in terms of better services etc. Or, how much of it is lost in the black hole of waste.

When you stop and think about it, it's more than a shame. What am I referring to? Not liking groups of people based on a common factor e.g. their names, their culture, their race, the football team they support, the political party they support. If people actually spent time with the 'other...

Not sure about Pizza Hut, however I read Dominos has a 800-900% mark up. Must admit though, I like a pizza :)

Hey you, behave! Good ol' Nige is one of the people. He loves nothing more than going down the local and havin' a pint with the common man. Salt of the earth is our Nige. ;)

If they get in, let's see how much of this rhetoric they actually deliver on ... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-15254519/NIGEL-FARAGE-party-alarm-Britain-change-attitudes-success.html

This is how it went with Yusuf ... Are you going to raise taxes if you form the next government? We stand with the British people, we stand for fairness. Are you going to raise taxes? We stand with those who set their alarm clocks at night to get up for work the next day. What does that even...

Kemi starts off her speech by saying Labour just reel off tons of promises they can't hope to achieve. Kemi ends her speech reeling off tons of things the tories will do if back in power. Anyone see what's wrong with this? Jeez, the longer you're on the planet, the more you realise just how...

Example, Kemi Badenoch is giving a speech right now. She's started off by saying 'it's clear that Britain is not working.' Maybe so, however was it utopia up to July 2024? Has it all just become a disaster in the past year and a bit? This is what I mean. Waffle and rhetoric from the lot of...

In terms of ones own view on this sort of stuff, much of it's informed by your personal life, social circle, work environment and where you live. Also, it's all just transitional, a transition that never ends. Some (most?) on here may not consider the likes of Abdul to be a typical British...

Could other people have done a better job than Reeves to date? I don't doubt it. Could other political parties have done a better job over the past year or so? Possibly. However all of this ties in with the point we've made on here recently. None of them are having an honest upfront...

You know feck all about me or what I want.

No it can't.

If you actually absorbed my post, I am not blaming the Tories. The point I'm making is this decline has been going on for decades and both our main parties have had their part to play. However, most recently, the Tories were in for 14 years, Labour have been in for a fraction of that to date...

Liz Truss has apparently not ruled out offering her services to Reform. Their line up gets better and better.

Good post. Your second paragraph is spot on. Our socioeconomic issues are complex, multifaceted and have been caused by multiple factors. And as has been touched on before in other threads, it's laughable to see Tory MPs going off on one at Labour when they had 14 years in power previous to...

Yes, the response was tier one. Apparently the code word Plato (used for terror attacks) was used initially, but was then rescinded.
