  1. Are you joking? Rowling made them money. She didn't need them.

  2. I'm going to quote Eric Cartman from South Park... "Just put another diverse woman in it and make it more f**king lame."

  3. I agree. Sunak pays the same rate of tax on his income as a nurse. But the treasury is currently "raking in" record amounts of tax revenues. The conservatives have been awful at managing it, they have lost control of everything!!

  4. They wasted money and didn't even finish what they started. Billions went "missing" with HS2. It was both shocking and an international embarrassment.

  5. Our country no longer recognises the truth.

  6. It all sounds very vague and very soviet Russia.

  7. Yeah, and we were constantly at war too

  8. They need the ability to defend themselves. These people are dangerous, and you ask the police not to hold their ground. Remember, their job is to protect us. Otherwise, people like this will continually take the micky and will continually pull the Islamipobia card when they are pulled up on their bad behaviour. Which is what they've tried to do. AGAIN!!

  9. ....and they are all completely useless. But whatever makes her happy, I suppose

  10. Imigration in the 90s was 40 000. Imigration now is 600 000. We've gone from a high trust society, to a low trust society. Up until recently England was a singular group of people. It is now completely fractured. The structures that held everything together are slowly being destroy.

  11. The only industry that really benifited from the EU was Londons finance sector. Everything else was chucked under a bus. Finance was one of the few industries than ran a trade surplus with the EU.

  12. This is awful. You're effectively putting a target on her back and giving her a death sentence. With no evidence.

  13. What country side? The past 30 years have seen huge gentrification and social change and an equally large number of houses being built.

  14. Rhisi Sunak was right. They did raise taxes.

  15. The bankers took her down. It was a pretty awful day for our countries freedom and democracy. Does any one else think that?

  16. Didn't Blair offer a Brexit referendum in the 2005 Labour manifesto? Yes. Yes, he did. Even Blair understood it was a question that required an answer.

  17. Trump runs the country like a wrestling match. You have "Goodies" and "Badies." This sounds ridiculous, but it's exactly what he does. Also, it's an old-school business management style. It typically died out in the 80s.

  18. That's exactly what's happening. He's effectively telling them to get this person.

  19. Clear direction! Exactly!!

  20. It was Gordon Brown which kicked off this quantitive easing madness!!

  21. The 2008 crash, Brexit, covid-19, the Ukrainan war with Russia. The last 14 years certainly have been intresting and quite frankly has been one calamity after the next.

  22. Farming has been booming since 2016. Stop lying. Brexit saved the industry. How has Brexit hit small traders exactly?

  23. Farage was the symptom. Not the problem.

  24. I have never read the books. But the Harry Potter films were some of the best I've seen in the last 20 years. They are absolutely wonderful!! And the world of Harry Potter means so much to so many people.

  25. None of the public sector workers want to work. They've gotten used to not doing anything because of the lockdowns. That is the problem. We're trying to access maternity allowance via the DWP. It's a simple application. We phoned them up, and the application form had been sitting on their desk unprocessed for over a month. The form was litterly directly in front of them.

  26. ​​​ @DropdudeJohn  The other concerning aspect is the post office. It doesn't work either. So we thought we may have had missed something in the mail. We hadn't, they just couldn't be bothered doing their job.

  27. ​ @SimplySketchyGT well, the public finances are in a mess, 5 million people are unemployed, inflation peaked at 12% and we have a unelected leader who doesn't pay he fair share of tax.

  28. ......if a farmer is waiting until he is dead at 80 plus years old to pass on the farm to his son, who is probably now in his 60s, something has gone very badly wrong in that family. Im from a farm old farmers holding onto all the power is destroying the industry.

  29. George Orwell gives a better description in his political essay, the lion and the unicorn.

  30. They can pass it on tax-free over 6 years like any other business. It is how they got around inheritance tax in the past. This law only appeared in the 90s under John Major to stop large estates going bust.

  31. Yes. Its basic supply and demand.

  32. We are shutting our oil and gas fields, we have shut the Cumbrian coal mine, we are trying to rely on solar panels in a dark European country and now there is a shortage of imported gas from Europe due to the war. I think we should be awarded the worlds stupidest country because there is clearly an energy problem, and we are just making it worse.

  33. Great. France.

  34. He was pretty critical, actually.

  35. It's almost like people don't like political messaging in their escapist science fiction. I didn't see that coming...

  36. You are not protecting vulnerable young people, you are exposuring them to very dangerous people!! Kemi is right!!

  37. Does the public want a re-run of a new labour government? There is a reason they lost in 2010, politics and economics were not working. If i recall, people were sick of them.

  38. What exactly is your problem? He was working for a private company and was paid accordingly.

  39. The films are wonderful. They are some of the best films you are ever likely to see in the last 20 years. They are brilliant!!!

  40. Why do we keep letting the far left destroy our heroes?

  41. The country we have now is not the same country it was in the early 1900s. Its continued to change and evolve. Once you have a written constitution that ability to adapt and change is greatly limited!! The system works fine, it's almost working to well and is perhaps causing marginal instability.

  42. Would you invite someone to join your company (or widder family) with out an extensive job interview, to make sure you can trust them and they will be productive? No. The same applies to new arrivals, we are all building something together. How do we know they will be helpful to society and honest?

  43. Being cautious about stangers isn't racism, its common sense. It is something you learn as a child.

  44. You need capitalism to pay for it!!

  45. Europe is an absolute joke. We are acting like spoiled children who have been told to grow up. We need to identify our problems, get the economy growing and start pumping money into defence.

  46. Alot of people are getting fed up. When MPs and school teachers are being threatened by a specific group questions really do need to be asked.
    3
  47. Most people are not on huge wages, most people are not part of a union, most people will not of get inflation matching pay rises, most people work for the private sector. Giving benefit claimants a 10% increase will cause alot of anger and resentment in the widder population!!

  48. They have their faults. But in my experience, the NHS has always done a wonderful job with every member of my family.

  49. He said Putin used it as an excuse. And he did. And we have done.

  50. Why were we permanently altering children via surgery and hormone treatment? Why were biological males entering women's sports? Why is it when freedom of speech, a basic human right governments is passing legislation to stop me from voicing my version of the truth? All of this is mental and has nothing to do with protecting vulnerable trans people!!
