Trump has become president and stopped 235 wars since Patson last scored ……..

So thick

True in hindsight but by the time we would have ready to start building we were mid table puel and it may well have been when vichai was killed could have put it on the back burner then aswell

He doesn’t like to run ……… lazy git ….

That’s how we roll …… didn't work for ange in the end ……

Sad for the bloke who tweeted yesterday from Hong Kong that he had tickets for day 3 ……..

Real discussions are taking place as to whether Tehran will be the first capital city to be effectively abandoned as such due to CC.

Apparently one celebrity cannot do more than two consecutive trials - seems to have stopped one person being picked on. I think that the lovey dovey environment won’t last

None of this is particularly arguable. I don’t see it changing to any great degree though

Whilst this was undoubtedly true in times past, I think it becomes increasingly less true nowadays. not the very rich anyway. Lots of small business owners may be underpaying their staff and living a very decent lifestyle. But they’re not the wealthy that most speak of. The mega businesses who pay very average wages don’t belong to individuals any more. (In the vast majority of cases).

we are where we are Your opinion is valid but not caring about wealthy people leaving the country is imo ‘cutting your nose off to spite your face’ (or whatever the saying is) whatever the govt do, they won’t address taxing the ultra wealthy because it just won’t stick. Really wealthy people find ways around the rules. Those British nationals leaving on the basis of their tax position are doing so out of fear rather than reality. The non doms who are relocating because of the new rules about taxing their global income is imo a misjudged policy. Would be far better to raise their cost of being here to 500k/annum in the short term and see what happens. I bet that would raise at least what the new rules do and we would still have them all here spending and contributing to the economy. I wasn’t arguing - just continuing on the back of your response to me. I fear you get so many negative responses that you just assume every reply is picking a fight 😄

we all pay lots of taxes on consumption. Wealthier people pay more than poorer people because they consume way more. It’s not a debate.

are we arguing that a multi millionaire and a cleaner are making the same annual contribution to the uk exchequer ?? and that the cleaner will build that same wealth over the next decade ? irrespective of your position on this, the idea that it’s a good thing for wealthy people to leave the country is ridiculous. there are no easy answers to this. I suspect if they’re going to bring in a wealth tax of some kind then the easiest one will be to just levy a fixed amount (£4k) on top of council tax top band H. Otherwise you’re introducing lots or new costs and complications if you try and revalue to current levels or try and tax actual ‘wealth’. of course that means those owners of a £2m property will pay the same as a £6m or £20m. That will lead to lots of complaints, especially in the se but that’s not an area of the country labour is desperate to please.

Wasn’t his poor clearance but he did well to avoid blocking the goal bound shot - almost Danny wardesque!

Seems like life is becoming more like a sixties satirical tv program every day Birmingham agency bin staff to strike over bullying https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cg7nxx7dl40o

The Macquarie loan indicated that it could be nearer 15m.

Surely he can’t be that ham fisted and obvious ?

wymsey warned us this wasn’t going to be pleasant. Disgusting bloke. How many years had he been getting away with this? How many kids could be affected ? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvgkxvjj054o

Ric is quiet on this must be updating his CV

Firstly I think Top is going to be quite disappointed by those interested in the job. Secondly, the person we get in should tell us how much say rudkin will still have. If it looks like a yes man then still a lot. If we manage to get a strong personality person in then just maybe ……….

the legal side is irrelevant to what is responsible journalism in a world of actual fake news. whilst the Beeb may well be able to defend any case for the reasons you have stated (and more), they need access to the white house to do their job over the next few years. Apologising for doing what they did isn’t such a stretch although their lawyers may advise that they don’t do this until trump’s case has fallen apart.

maybe to put an end to this? If the bbc are confident that they won’t get successfully sued in the states then they could just ignore it from now on. But trump and his minions won’t let it drop and will reference it at every opportunity which will undermine the corporation’s news journos over there. irrespective of what you think of trump, no one has claimed that what the bbc did was defensible. it’s no big deal to apologise profusely for that and they could word the apology in a way that highlights the irony of having to apologise to the kings of manipulation.

BBC faces fresh claim of misleading Trump edit https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cr5e9erpnzlo if a us court can assert jurisdiction (unclear atm) then this won’t help the BBC’s case

Didn’t know it was about the football regulator my point stands though. Politics is full of lobby groups. All sorts of shady stuff happens that we never find out about. Sometimes it might take a decade for people to receive their pay off but I assure you that they do.

Well not in a brown paper bag …….
