And yet my only mention of the Conservative party is to criticise them for prolonged austerity..

Why must you view things in binary terms, where the only problem for complex, multifaceted things...

I'm not saying the government are not part of it. They are. Austerity is. Austerity happened because we suddenly were spending far more than we took in tax and without austerity no one would lend to...

There's plenty of money still sloshing around. Not as much as everyone would like but that's been the case since the global financial crisis.

The point is, youth services is determined locally. If...

Bochum won on pens.

Dusseldorf will be beyond gutted. A home game with a 3-0 advantage..

It means another big club in a big ground with big attendances in 2.Bundesliga next season.

Zzzz.

Yet again, completely ignoring what I said or any responsibility for those actually responsible for youth services.

So yes, your approach is part of the reason they get away with it.

I agree, but over two legs especially seems fair enough.

I just find it bizarre they never replicate our play off system.

Well yeah. Maybe you should scrutinise what local councils and the WG spend on things and then maybe they would spend it better. They say "look at Westminster" partly to cover their own back. Down...

Bloody hell

You've just completely ignored the points I've made. Local councils have made spending decisions. The council have not prioritised youth services and the WG am certainly haven't.

So yes, it is...

Although I don't dispute austerity happened, all those decisions were on local councils watches. They made decisions. Cardiff council have more councillors than before for example. Welsh Govt funded...

I am a big advocate of levelling up!

Re. Funding, I'd say that's another question that is a whole level of scrutiny we can apply to any policy mentioned. It's incredibly rare that there is a...

Fundamentally I think universities have lost their raison d'etre, which is to educate, inform, inspire etc the future generations of this country, primarily. I think with hindsight it was a mistake...

Cyril, there is no one on earth I disagree with more on most things than my dad 🤣

Don't disagree. But you've chosen to focus on the messaging there, and I would agree that it's all a bit chaotic across the board - again, on all sides - as they are all getting caught out and...

Loads. But not really on this. And I am certainly open minded to hearing more about it

This article talks of 670,000 homeless and 50,000 living on the streets in Germany, and quotes a homelessness organisation.

I use buses very rarely, as I always get the train, but that is shocking. Surely there should be a kind of two week crossover period?

"Little Hitler" is how my dad would describe him!

Usual dismissive comments here.

I don't see what is so wrong with it? It is common in many countries and could be a great way to provide training and meaning for many young people who in my...

Pretty common across the beloved EU.

What's wrong with service? Don't we all believe in society?

Good idea I think.

First time ever, but I am going to watch the Scottish cup final. And keep an eye on the FA cup and Leinster v Toulouse and prostitute myself to whatever game is best

Wait until they inspect women's boobs

Shame, I was hoping for Dusseldorf to stay down (and Dresden to go up from 3.Liga too) as part of my "operation can the 2.Bundesliga get better crowds than the Bundesliga project"

I saw it too. Sludge is correct. The argument being that it is aiding the enemy etc. unfortunately Hamas no doubt do requisition a lot of stuff, but unfortunately that's the nature of it and doesn't...

Good for you, and I mean that.

But if that's the case, you will know that the problem isn't caused by the Conservatives nor solved by a change of government. And this is exactly the kind of...

But they have had several weeks to prepare the groundwork...in theory at least.
