Man city have properly done him dirty with the donnarumma signing

We do seem to keep lads hanging around for years after it's obvious they're not going to make it here

True, TBF there's lots of positions that aren't really traditional any more. Brexit itself should have been a left wing idea but the reasons for it ended up being traditionally right wing immigration/Johnny foruner concerns instead of left wing free market concerns. Everything since is upside down.

This is the weird thing. It's never been right wing/conservative to not believe in science, but somehow here and in the US this has become a core tenant of right wing popular thought. Crazy how easy it was to brainwash the masses against science.

That is the only bit he was right about though, right? I'm prepared to accept there's discussions to be had around mass immigration also. But the anti climate change stuff was bona fide bonkers.

Doo lally in which way? It's another outlet certain parts of the political spectrum don't seem to like, despite the fact pretty key figures from that part of the spectrum have been effectively promoted over all others. Bit bizarre to me. The only doo lally thing about them is they seem to be trying to keep everybody happy while keeping nobody happy, but I don't think that's because of bias tbh.

Fair enough, I just know a lot of right leaning people don't like it and the things I've read from you previously lead me to think you're probably right wing. C4 tended (I say tended as I have no idea if it still airs in the same way now) to go into much more detail on subjects it covered, giving much more factful and inciteful coverage than other networks, which isn't to everybody's taste these days.

The only media that's ever really covered the world properly has been channel 4 news, but I'm guessing you probably aren't a fan of C4.

Ok that's cheating, she is just insanely hot

He just needs to run at people and stop tarting about. Stop stopping and doing step overs and start running with pace and power. Could be exceptional at this level of he just simplifies his game.

Feels like we're awful not somehow still in the mix. If we even half get it together we've a real chance

This is true yeah. Once had a ref intentionally wait until 75th minute to stop a game in atrocious weather when I was coaching, with the intention that the result could stand.

S&P500 Vanguard ETF has also finally recovered to overtake its peak at the start of trump's presidency. Took a year nearly to recover from his messing about with tariffs but we're there.

Suspect it's very vulnerable to price variations as there seems to be a lot of amateurs involved. Even my 21yo daughter has bought £500 worth after being told about it by her friends who has thousands in. Seems EEE is something a lot of ordinary people have jumped on.

Oh I see. Yeah fair enough. Tbh I'll go back to something over said before which is that most things are the fault of social media and 24/7 news. There's a constant need cycle regurgitating news, or pure opinion on some channels, and so it's almost like a pressure to constantly have an answer to everything immediately. I hate kneejerk politics but we've created a world where no politician can win. In reality it takes around 18 months for most policies to actually come into being and bear any fruit. Labour haven't even been in 18 months but are having to scramble around because they've been attacked basically from day 1 with zero chance to actually do anything first. And the same is true for other parties also. We expect an instant answer, when they do change policy we don't wait to see if it works, then accuse them of lying before the policy has even come into effect.

Mandelson isn't Epstein. He just knew him, fell for him, maybe believed him. That's literally all that's happened.

The £150bn isn't coming from trump, it's coming from private companies and was announced separately to the US-UK trade deal. Do you have any reason to discredit the figures. Out of interest have you ever discredited the figures of whichever party you vote for? The mandelson issue is a complete nonsense issue. It's Westminster tittle-tattle that has no effect on the economy or you or I. A major set of investments does affect those things.

Fair enough mate 👍🏻 Just didn't read that way so was worried for you

As much as I dislike trump, you have to admit Starmar's played a blinder. The £150bn in investments announced overnight is in addition to the US-UK deal. Fantastic bit of diplomacy bringing so much investment into the UK.

Inflation is a mess partly due to ni costs but also a lot because food prices keep going up due to poor harvests, something happening more and more across the world now. You ain't changing that without taking prompt action against climate change.

Tbh I just buy into an S&P 500 ETF monthly usually. Go for safe and simple. Eee is an anomaly for me but I've only got a few hundred in that.

This sounds like horrific planning. Don't get me wrong, it could well work for you, but lumping your pension funds into one up and coming stock is like building your forever home on the edge of a cliff.

Ronnie Pickering?

What we really need is an honest debate involving economists, public sector experts, planners etc to truly discuss the pros and cons of immigration. Instead we get slogans and two sides that refuse any sort of conversation.
