Was the amount claimed to go to the EU inaccurate or was the idea of funding the NHS wrong?

 

[motorbiking]

you are confusing the last years budget with this one

the black hole left by the Tories did exist

It was there and magically wasn’t. How odd.

 

[SPLINE]

The "black hole" has been there since the banking crisis of 2008, when it became fashionable throughout the developed world to print money. We now have a national debt of over 3 trillion pounds. Governments blaming each other for this is like rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic, although it started with Gordon Brown.

you mean the boomers that made a fortune out of property -they did very well

Like you you mean. - notch Moans about boomers -- is one
moans about people in 1M houses -- lives in one
moans about brexit - voted for it
moans about Racists -- lives in a white village

 

[aveatry]

The "black hole" also included --how many millions - or was it billions for the instant pay off to the junior doctors strikers

Letter reveals the OBR had already told her she was running a surplus.

I wonder how many of these tax gouges will magically disappear when they are up for election.

Boomers were born between 1946 and 1964

You always know when Reeves and Starmer are lying because their lips are moving AND what they are saying comes over as if they don’t believe what they are saying

Fashionable or necessary?

whoopee

Really? Haha

Boomers were born between 1946 and 1964

I think that has only been decided recently, in the Internet age. Baby boomers used to mean those born immediately after the war, and who became the 1960s rock generation - the fans of the Beatles and the Stones.

You always know when Reeves and Starmer are lying because their lips are moving AND what they are saying comes over as if they don’t believe what they are saying

Those two have the most unpleasant sounding voices.

Fashionable or necessary?

The essential difference between the left and the right is that the right work for a living whilst the left live off other people's money.

Everybody lives off other people’s money, for example disproportionate use of nhs services. Exonerating the right for the credit crisis is barmy.

Struggling on 77k who'd have thought...

 

[SPLINE]

Some of the people on benefits with six kids get the net equivalent of a 77k salary. Most if this then gets redistributed to:

Bet Fred
Under-the-counter tobacco shopkeepers
Scratch cards
Vape shops
Remittances to Pakistan, Afghanistan etc.
Drug dealers
