It would be interesting to know what proportion of these people actually are in genuine need and what proportion just want free stuff. Dicussion here: Suggesting a mix of genuine people struggling, international students (who now doubt are finding their work restrictions make it hard to get by) and interestingly perhaps a generation of older immigrants who perhaps come from places where when free stuff is on offer you take it regardless of your specific need.

Not at all. It is the job of the government to set taxes, not of companies or individuals to voluntarily pay more tax than is due. Of course, tax evasion is wrong and illegal. If Labour come in and tax the rich more then I completely support their right to do it and companies and individuals. I know you think companies taking advantage of government incentives to encourage investment and create jobs is wrong, so I am not going to worry too much about your position on taxation.

I don't know how you can look at the swing from 2019 and seriously say this. Events dear boy, events.

You have no idea how much tax she is paying.

You know they don't run the company right? She is a shareholder with less than % of the shares.

The legal amount of tax is the correct amount of tax. If the law changes then fine. If you are asking if I think the UK should be able to freely tax people's worldwide earnings then no not really. Earnings should be taxed at source.

Hoddle really was a massive dickhead wasn't he?

Funny, but they already did that.

We can't help who we fall in love with!

He's obviously been on here and thought he needs protection from the crowd.

Despite us offering him the job?

I suppose that depends on whether you think having a few MPs constitutes having power.

Does advertising fossil fuels make one use more fossil fuels? Or just choose between ones you would use anyway. Edit: Just seen an article on the UN statement. Government should absolutely crack down on greenwashing advertising, and I would say should publish some clear data on companies efficiency.

He was lucky to make the initial squad on his form this year. The irony that when he was on fire for us and topping the stats he couldn't get a game.

Poch quit.

The irony of people who (accurately in some cases) accuse the right of demonizing immigrants and so on is they demonize the right wing in exactly the same way.

I read it. Was rather dull. We know where the money comes from, a bunch of rich right wingers. I'm not sure picking apart every element of their background informs a lot more. Unless anyone can actually prove (they have not yet) that there is money coming from Russia or other overseas actors?

Probably true, Corbyn spent his entire political career arguing, rather than doing anything.

Suspect in this case competition = faster than collaboration.

Scrapped last year apparently.

No its saving the economy from Labour, so you skip stage 2 entirely by voting Conservative.

Got to be his best chance I would think. The worry is if he is elected he might just be able to perform a reverse takeover of the Conservative party.

Impossible to say, if a bus was pushing you off the road you would rightly use whatever space you had. Looks like a typical London squeezed by a bus crash to me.

Stupid leadership election system. Labour also put in place the system which put Corbyn in charge so they are as bad as each other. With a bit of luck Reform take all the arseholes (and on the left the nutters sod off to the SWP) and we can have sensible centre right and centre left politics. That said we STILL lack talented people in politics, and while their every move is picked apart and criticised, they get death threats on a daily basis etc, why would anyone capable bother?
