    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    People who own houses of that value aren't rich (they just aren't poor) but that is an argument over what the limit should be, which isn't really what I'm focusing on - it's more the way the system works. You are correct about rich people protecting their assets in trust etc and not paying...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    You're assuming they've earned it. While many will what about those that have inherited said wealth from rich parents? Are you suggesting those that don't have big, expensive houses haven't worked hard? You seem to be pretty happy with individuals with large resources accessing better medical...

    Fan pushes player, player gets 2nd yellow for it

    He does go back towards the fan and confront him. You could easily argue he would have a right to and was probably very restrained in the circumstances but if you get a poor tackle on the pitch and then confront your opponent chances are you'd get a yellow for it so I imagine it's along the same...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It's a complete con to protect the assets of the rich. If you own a multi-million pound house then that counts towards the cap. If you get a misely sum from the council it doesn't. Utter joke of a proposal.

    Migrants crossing from Europe

    Even I didn't think she was that heartless! Pretty sure it goes against the Geneva Convention

    You couldn't be more wrong. I think most people don't think like me. In fact I'm almost certain they don't. But that doesn't necessarily make me wrong and after years of having opinions that differed but ending up being right about the outcome more often than not I just learnt to trust my...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    I'm more bothered about how things actually operate, not how people think they do. Why would I want to think like people that are wrong?

    Sheffield United v Coventry Song Review

    Love it. Fair play on making that rather dull affair interesting

    Peng shuai

    That was thing that I thought of too, but thought it a bit bad taste in the circumstances, so glad you did it instead. Hope she is safe and well (but I'm not putting any money on it)

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Which just goes to show why they should be ignored because they're taking something that is not it's main purpose and making it the forefront of their argument. It may well be that mask wearing will stop spread more than vaccine, but it's telling that they make no mention of the severity of...

    Transfer Rumour Robins at the wheel?

    I'm not saying it's the only reason but it does seem like their transfer policy isn't based on building a team designed to win things but individuals that have a big name. The things you're talking about are true, but where have they brought in other options? Defensively they seem to skimp to...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    I'm not saying the report does, just that there is a logical argument that solely in terms of transmission masks could be as effective. Only stupid people would take that sentence as being anti-vax (so, anti-vaxxers), because I'm solely talking about spreading the disease, not the effects of...

    Transfer Rumour Robins at the wheel?

    I don't know if it's the American owners but their recent policy has been far more akin to US sport, where it's all about bringing in the big name and having a 'franchise' player than building a decent team. *I know their NFL team are current champions but Brady is a star name but sees the...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Wearing a mask, who's sole purpose is to contain the spread of the virus, could be just as effective at stopping transmission than a vaccine, which is primarily concerned with reducing the effect it has on people rather than the spread. If the vaccine made the virus harmless it wouldn't matter...

    Doubt that'd be an improvement. Wasn't exactly amazing in a two-horse league. No experience over here either.

    Pitchfork

    There is a big difference between compassion and wanting to torture someone. I have no sympathy for him whatsoever, his crimes were absolutely disgusting and hope he rots in jail, but wanting to have someone tortured, regardless of their crimes, says more about the individual wanting to do the...

    Kyle Rittenhouse

    I was wondering how useful an AR-15 was at cleaning graffiti and for first-aid. The ruling is, probably, technically correct but I think it's safe to say he was definitely looking for trouble and not exactly tying to reduce the chances of there being a flashpoint. But it does set a dangerous...

    Pitchfork

    Was that because it was possible for her to get a sentence that long at the time of the trial? I think a whole life tariff can't be given to Pitchfork because it wasn't a potential punishment at the time.

    Match Thread Sheffield Utd (a) - 12:30 - Sat 20th

    Will take that point. Comfortable first half and the changes swung things in their favour. Not too bothered about going to two up front but think he should have just brought Godden on alongside Gyok for abit to see how it went and keep that ability to hold the ball. Godden and Walker together...

    Part of that was having to take hamer off. To then swap Sheaf as well was a bit odd.
