@gabrieldsouza6541 I am starting to question why people still go to Oxford though. We have had Oxford graduates running the country, and look what a mess they made of it! Totally agree that we are at lur best when we're sharing and working with others though 🙂

@gabrieldsouza6541 subsidies were daft because they took money from where money was tight (public funding) to protect profits so lavish, that even the conpanies making those profits were saying they should be taxed on them! That's a really negligent way to manage public money

@gabrieldsouza6541 the money went to people - and then straight to conpanies making more money than they knew what to do with. That's literal, by the way - they said they were making so much they couldn't invest it anywhere If that isn't a fair threshold for "making too much money", I don't know what is!

 @terrysmith5168 I agree we can and should be proud of collective achievements, but we should concentrate on current achievement, and stop resting so heavily on laurels long past

@garywilton246 you should have stuck with Northern Ireland, you've faced some big challenges there As for being a white, straight male, as a white, straight male, let me dig out my tiny violin to show my sympathy for the hardships white straight males face...

@garywilton246 well, please do make me look like a git - what's your story of hardship that I am so cruelly mocking?
