Yes you are right. Here’s another set of realities: The school day (9am to about 3/3.30pm) was founded when Dad worked and Mum stayed at home. In the manner you describe above. Now Mum (more often but not always) has to work but is restricted from doing as many hours at work because of a...

Agree. Change the word “interested” to “motivated” (by alternative consequence) then you’ve nailed it.

Please tell me it’s only because you paid £3 to elect Corbyn for the giggles? (to be fair I actually grew to respect old Jezza)

“Smash the criminal gangs to stop the boats” that was the Labour pledge, right? What have the done? Sweet FA. This latest speech is big on sound bites but I can’t see any substance and it’ll amount to sweet FA again. Labour logic: Break the ECHR rules, but stay in the Convention (why?). In...

Starmer spent years trying to overturn Brexit. The US trade deal was impossible without Brexit. The bloke is a duplicitous charlatan.

So you are saying it’s fine for the UK to break the Convention rules and still be part of the membership group? How would that work? Evidence?

And I said “unvetted” which is totally different to “undocumented”. I see how you’ve tried to spin it though. Nice.

Tough words. Unfortunately the ECHR will enforce the repeated appeals delay and defer method of avoiding deportation. With nearly ONE MILLION largely unvetted, mainly unskilled, mainly men (more likely to commit violent crimes, us men) coming in each year with automatic rights to healthcare...

True. We are better off going short with a view to driving into the box to get a pen.

Wilson 5 2 attempts at him, 2 goals conceded. Still, Collins would have also conceded both and thrown one into his own net for good measure. Small mercies and all that. MVE 6 Did great all night and had some kind of brainfart. Always looking for space and raced back in his usual fashion to...

Doug needs to say: “Throw the game and come home. Your missus will be happy. Plus we’ll sign you back and give you a £10m sign on fee” Joking aside, what’s promotion worth? £200m?

That’s the harsh reality of how our nation is controlled. A select few believe that they have the divine right to lord it over the little people.

That’s a bit harsh. There are some merits to his thoughts.

China thought the same:

I’m not embarrassed to say that yes, I own a fair property portfolio here and abroad. The value fluctuation don’t concern me - I have zero debt. The gains in value aren’t always helpful with new taxation rules: see farmers for details.

What I’m saying is that it is not in the interests of certain financial institutions to reduce house prices. Building too many will reduce demand and hence prices. Reducing immigration would reduce demand for housing. Always follow the money.

It’s important to logic-line through the probability / possibility scenarios. Worst case: An oversupply of houses would be an absolute economic disaster, declining birth rate, declining population, reduced demand for housing, house prices fall to a level less than equity (ie negative equity) /...

Don’t overlook the propensity of people being single and living on their own fur longer. Obviously, people leaving it later to cohabitate/marry means more homes of single occupancy. Financial incentives for singles to house share might be an answer.
