"Real austerity" would put the economy in massive trouble. For a start that many people losing jobs means you've now got those people on benefits while not getting ta from their wages. Those people will also not have money to spend and so private businesses will contract, cutting further jobs...

So I assume you therefore think Corbyn was very harshly treated by Labour in the anti-semitism row then? I also think you should up the IHRA definition of anti-semitism. I think you'll find at least some of what you've written qualifies. And don't forget to ask Netanyahu who pretty much says...

I've been thinking this myself, but how long has farage shown he's nothing but a grifter and yet still gained popularity. Same with Trump in the US - should be obvious to everyone what he is yet he still got in. Then after that first term and what happened he still managed to get elected again...

TBF most were saying "let's wait and see what their motives are." And I hope you'll be as quick to point out the error of people's assumptions next time a terrorist attack immediately blamed on Islamic terrorists turns out not to be.

I think I'd start with making an outfield player have to go off in their stead and seeing what difference that made. If GK's then still continued to get 'injured' then I'd think about making the GK have to go off. Of course the issue with this is that it could be argued there is an incentive...

I don't think it would unless you stop the clock, because if a player had to go off for ten minutes is you'd just have the other team wasting as much time as possible until those ten minutes were up. It could potentially increase timewasting.

The thing I've never liked about players getting suspensions for subsequent games is that it can actually work against the team the offence was against. Let's say we're in the 96th of a game and someone does an awful tackle on our player to stop them getting through on goal and the opposition...

It's maybe not well worded but I think it's saying a country whose population would have almost certainly seen at least one family member murdered in the worst genocide the world has ever seen now doing the things it's doing in Gaza doesn't paint the human race in a good light.

Ta. Just realised it reads it US style so MM/DD/YYYY. Quite surprised. Thought it'd me arguing with Grendel :LOL:

I can't get it to work anyway. Tried typing in the date of my first post (in both older than and newer than in case I was misunderstanding) but all I ever get it my most recent posts.

In trophies there is one for first post, so I guess you could just look for that date.

When we hear about us looking for wingers, I hope what they mean is we're looking for wide inside forwards.

And I don't think she'll win and would arguably have a better opportunity in a seat she already occupies. Doesn't exactly make it look like you care about your constituents. And she's not got the party loyalty 'safe seat' that many who move constituencies have to stop that being an issue...

And why spend a fortune opening up mines or drilling for oil/gas when we could focus that attention of the production of clean energy instead? That creates jobs too as well. It's a false argument - we're not rid of fossil fuels so lets continue using them. We're not rid of old filament...

Well if your biggest issue is the boats then you're not really looking at where the vast majority of immigration, and even illegal immigration is coming from. It's like there being a bank robbery and focusing on someone stealing the little pens on chains from the counter. As for not having a...
