    Reform Policies

    No, my lack of reply results from doing work, earning a living and paying taxes. You should try it one day. After 2029 you'll be forced to, whether you want to or not. Perhaps this could explain your fear of Reform.

    Reform Policies

    As there's a step change like that from changing methodology then all debate about higher or lower is pointless. The ONS has also started massivly revising previous months' data for other economic stats. You can't believe anything any more.

    Moderator approvals/actions. Some answers here. Otherwise it's not up for discussion.

    I get the impression that accusations of people using multiple accounts are much more widespread than people actually doing it. If any two posters agree then they get accused of being the same person. If anyone actually bothers to set up a second account just so they can have an imaginary...

    An awkward Christmas for lefties?

    Complete rubbish. Brexit plus Covid made the Tory government panic and deliberately open the floodgates, as they feared there would be a shortage of nurses. Well, this is the official story. More likely they just wanted to make wages lower and didn't want to become even more unpopular by...

    Reform Policies

    Wrong, that's net migration. Lots of Brits are saying sod this and leaving - usually the skilled, wealthy talented ones we need. The Boris wave has ended and inevitably some of them are returning, either as it was temporary or because things didn't work out, as is normal. Labour have done...

    Reform Policies

    He's on the wrong side of public opinion with the fox-hunting thing. But I'm still happy he's 99% right, no political leader is ever going to align with 100% of your beliefs. Get the country safe from invaders who want to harm us, then sort out the other details.

    Of course he abused pupils

    Your tone is divisive. It's not hate of either Jews or even Israel to criticise their actions. But sadly you've fallen into the trap of interpreting things this way, just as Israeli politicians often attempt to encourage. You don't need to pick a side, decide whether you hate jews and love...

    An awkward Christmas for lefties?

    More likely it's because they couldn't get in via the trucks any more, as they were doing before Brexit. The additional checks meant that they'd get spotted so they switched tactics. The only difference is that they're now visible, previously they weren't. But it's also possible it is just...

    An awkward Christmas for lefties?

    Is that it? We never had any leverage. Small boats was partly an accident of timing, partly because the truck checks were increased as a result of us leaving. We previously had an unknown (probably large) number getting through in all that free-flowing trade in trucks. The difference was...

    Screwfix Prices Then And Now

    I think there's a Japanese cross-head that's probably used in China a lot. It's just the same but different, and just compatible enough to make you think it fits, then you chew the head off the screw.

    Of course he abused pupils

    There's no world authority on who can use what words. It's all kind of arrived at by argument. But generally referring to the activities of Israel as being "Jewish" is frowned upon. For good reason, they definitely don't represent all Jewish people, in fact many protest against their...

    An awkward Christmas for lefties?

    Go on then - explain how someone voted for more illegal immigration? I assumed it was a Boris reference, as that was the best way in which I could create something resembling logic from your words. If I misinterpreted then explain what vote you are actually referring to?

    Reform Policies

    I've read it twice, but I still can't find any sense in anything you wrote, it's just random words. Aww bless, doing the "Poor (insert name here)" thing. That means now getting really upset.

    Reform Policies

    Sigh.... The government is giving them a choice of extermination in an election or keeping their jobs for another year. They don't have to give them this choice, and their answer is an obvious foregone conclusion. The only decision being made is the government's, in offering them the option...

    An awkward Christmas for lefties?

    I attempted to explain previously, but you didn't get it. Many middle-of-the-road totally normal, intelligent people are absolutely cheering for Reform, just because the others, and especially Labour are so far left and detached from reality that people just want saving from this madness...

    Of course he abused pupils

    It's the rules, what the BBC told me once and widely reported. You can't talk about them as being one and the same. You shouldn't refer to Israeli political situations as being Jewish. But Israelis do it regularly, as do many Jews. Perhaps they have different rules, I don't know who decides...

    An awkward Christmas for lefties?

    Go on then, as my brain is composed entirely of scrunched up Daily Mails you'll have to explain your point in words I'm able to understand. In what way do you think people voted for mass uncontrolled immigration by voting in Boris?

    I'm pretty sure I dig generally at lefty crackpots. Perhaps you taking it personally is somewhat revealing?
