    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I’ve got no issue with the additional investment/spending, we need it, let’s just hope the extra cash is spent wisely. Unfortunately I don’t have much faith in governments of any political persuasion doing so…only time will tell though. What I find bizarre is the continuing cries of austerity...

    maybe I misunderstood BSBs post but that’s how I read it

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Not at all. I just saying that people shouldn’t try to find ways of justifying the violence and destruction that’s come along with the protests.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I’m not missing the point. He’s overriding the system again. I’m saying that violence and causing damage helps to feed his narrative and justifications (retrospective as I said above)

    Did Trump call in National guard early, probably as some macho power play over Newsom and quash protests, yes, but let’s not give violent protesters an ‘out’ by suggesting they’re only smashing shit up because of that. Nearly every peaceful protest attracts an element that want to cause harm...

    The spat between Musk and Trump is getting lively….gonna get messy

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    10%+ in 15 years is still a pretty rapid pace. I saw the growth rate chart but as we all know a low percentage of a high number can still be a high number. It all depends on wider context though, the main issue being the ability to build and deliver adequate housing and infrastructure to meet...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    There is little financial benefit for most small/accidental landlords these days. I was reading an article the other day, lots are selling up or planning to. Very few new properties are bought by landlords Most of the BTL properties being sold are bought by owner occupiers, this reduces the...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    They can’t have it all ways, a military cap, no foreign troops on ground and no NATO. Just asking to be invaded again I do think agreeing not to join NATO would be part of any settlement but if Ukraine agreed to the rest they’ll be left exposed I also don’t see ukraine agreeing to no demand...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Expected requests but not really realistic. Hopefully there’s a willingness to move on a few of them otherwise there’s never going to be a negotiated end

    On the right you’ve got some larger self interested developers, in the middle you’ve you’ve NIMBYs, on the left you’ve got ideological planners (I could tell some stories - mostly Labour councils that blocked/delayed developments)…throw in loose migration policies adding millions to the...

    Viktor Moving on

    Think they agreed last summer that if he stayed for an extra season they wouldn’t hold out for full release clause fee

    Scumberland or Shitefield ?

    Agree but they’ve been poor and prem teams would take their chances against them. Just felt like luck was on their side against us* and then again today *summed up by the wright and Ballard headers.

    Wright

    When will some understand, the lone striker role in our set up can be a thankless task. Got the attention of two CBs for most of the game and against a team with a low block not much opportunity to run into channels/run in behind and turn defence….both Wright and Simms strength. Yeah, both are...

    Ellis Simms playoffs reason not played

    I still think he’d have been more of a handful than Wright in the second leg

    Eccles

    Finally showed Lampard what we’d all seen first half of the season (when he was one of the only players to perform). Looked a far better, more mobile partner to grimes than sheaf last night. The blocks got the attention but check out pass to Wright on 72 mins or so straight after he came...
