The latest magic money tree giveaway from Sunak looks like a massive change to the way income tax is defined to me.

If you take a working person and a retired person with the same income, they...

This argument is ever so slightly undermined by the fact that nearly every council is scrambling around hopelessly trying to balance the books. You are always banging on about how recent UK...

If it's such a great opportunity to bring society together why isn't everyone expected to do it? Maybe mandatory national service wouldn't be such a vote winner if it directly affected people who...

They can already encourage that and should be.. This scheme makes it mandatory. Are you against freedom and personal choice of adults? It is worth remembering that we are talking about adults...

Wonderful, good scheme but of no relevance whatsoever to this discussion because of size/nature of it.

There will be limited places in the more interesting/useful roles and I do not think that...

You just know the selection process for anything remotely useful or interesting will be completely corrupt. Rich kids/kids with connections will either get the cushy roles or pay the fine and poorer...

No this is from another branch of the magic money tree.

I am not a fan of volunteering younger generations to do things that I wasn't expected to do.

What happen when invariably some young people just say '**** off'? The spectator article touches...

That is quite sobering when put into the context of America and some of the pictures we see from there. Almost makes me think we record it differently to them. I guess the temporary accomodation...

I think you need to put it into context of him finding LOM fumbling Sir Beir Canute hilarious, let's just say not everyone has the same sense of humour.

Yep, my mistake.

The short answer is no, but now we are outside of Schengen, migration can only be a symptom and not the cause. The government have full control over this, are seemingly against mass migration and...

Those guys couldn't look less like they belong there if they...

Oh I took Pipster at face value when he said they are reducing bills

Edit/ sent before Pipsters response..

It definitely is better than what is available in England. I am lucky in the sense that our water company is applying to raise prices by a lower than average amount, 25%. My bias is completely...

Well if the wet blanket at the gym says it then I am sold.

'Im bullied for being a conservative' is so anti conservative values that it's hilarious. The first people to tell him to grow a pair...

Your ideology and bias is leaking through the cracks here.

It's essentially a quango, higher wages at the top than if it were nationalised, completely unaccountable to voters, contracting work out...

I thought they would go in May before the migrant route started up with good weather, maybe they were banking on rwanda being blocked by the lords but this looks like one of two things now:

- They...

He looks cowardly then. Him and his team would have agonised over this exact point. It did almost look like he wanted to get out and back in the door as quickly as possible.

If we hold on until the 5th we can likely have Sunak in with Hunt as his assistant.

Privatisation is such a good 'jobs for the boys' program though. 20+ water companies, all of them that I have looked up (albeit only 3) went to a fee paying school. If they were heading up a...

I do worry when I see the regulators at a select committee trying to explain everything away as a work in progress, you have been around for a while guys.

There must be a whole bunch of junior...

How is everyone feeling about this?

As much as I hate to be naive and waste my vote, I don't see how I could vote for either. Neither should be leading the most influential country in the world for different reasons.

My dad and nephew go to Ross County games a fair bit and they think he's tidied up their midfield a lot. Really not sure how the level compares though, very hard to tell.
