Well I don't agree that capitalism is broken! There's always things that can be improved and we need to address some things, including but not limited to tax evasion and huge corporates taking the piss. But broken implies something far more severe. Let's not forget that it's only in the last...

I'd be amazed if it were us - unless Robins knows of some money coming in that we don't.

You're right, it's not easy on the eye but it's a serious document - no misinformation. And I completely agree that young people have got the thin end of the wedge. You probably already knew I thought that from the EU thread and you possibly recall my opinion on why and what needs to be done...

It is true. How Has Inequality Changed? | The Equality Trust Look at the Gini Coefficient graph - it fell since 2010. This text accompanies the graph: "Since the early 1990s, changes in inequality have been less dramatic than the change from 1979 to 1991. After falling slightly over the...

That's not true Clint, the figures prove that in absolute terms funding has increased - but not in real terms. The NHS in particular is not true - the Tories have put loads of additional money into the NHS. The issue is that patient numbers have increased at a faster pace. Cold hard figures...

Sounds delicious.

I'm not sure anyone here is drawing on David Ike for their posts!

I imagine that 'we' in 'And you wonder why we don't vote Tory' is young people - from your bold typeface. No, I don't wonder and have never mentioned it. I know why you vote Labour. I also know why some people who boycotted Barclays; went on Anti Nazi League Rallies; sat up till two in the...

Small wonder as he's a left wing economist; he'd never be invited to be an economic adviser to the Conservatives would he? However to have a left wing economist say that the Labour party hasn't a clue is damning IMO.

He's not going to unite the party; he's not going to even try. He's going to entrench his position and Lansman et alia are only the start. This is a formula that the extreme left always follow. I wish he weren't electable but I fear he is. If there were an election today Labour would win a...

Nah that's your little Otis you are thinking about.

Well, as you know, I think that 'you never know what might come along' is already here. Just before I left this discussion last time, someone stated that I was 'hysterical about Corbyn'. I'll dispute the word hysterical, because I don't do panic and screaming, but he's right that I am very...

Labour have replaced Ann Black as Head of Disciplinary Matters with Momentum Director Christine Shawcroft. On the very same day, it seems that Jared O'Mara has recovered from his long illness and is now fit to face his disciplinary investigation. I wonder if Keith Vaz has also recently...

I vaguely recall, but haven't researched, that homosexual men have a slightly different brain configuration to heterosexual men. However to date they have not found anything similar within the brains of homosexual women.

I read that although there is no evidence of this particular event, he did similar things at various times.

I don't even know which metric unit to use to quantify loyalty.

From an obituary in the Telegraph today: "Regis had ... become ... a born-again Christian. "What do you mean you've found Christ?" riposted Atkinson. "You played for him for three years."

I don't agree with the 'cured' word, which smacks of the attempts to cure homosexuals, which still goes on in some religious quarters. I think it's more about learning to control and appreciating that it's a selfish thing that harms others.

I'd agree that they need help. Imagine yourself in that position; presumably they cannot help being attracted to children. I don't in any way condone what they do, as they must know that what they are doing is wrong. As I understand it, many convince themselves that the children want it...

Before the law sits a gatekeeper. To this gatekeeper comes a man from Margate who asks to gain entry into the law. But the gatekeeper says that he cannot grant him entry at the moment. The man thinks about it and then asks if he will be allowed to come in later on. “It is possible,” says the...
