    Also me realising how old I am now as I've got no idea what you're talking about. Something to do with the yoof of today I assume.

    The fact Hunt is not considered that bad isn't great. He's still far from a great candidate - it's just how bad everybody else is. The fact he's an uber-capitalist who has written about how the NHS should be discarded and sold off in favour of a US style system should discount him from the...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Again, I can't believe even Johnson said the thing about "I should be like the Mayor from jaws". If he'd ever watched that film he'd know it was the incompetence of said character that led to people dying and the problem getting much bigger than it needed to be. Plus having a massive shark...

    Wonder how long it'll be before someone lets slip that his story for making that trip was bollocks

    Oh, I don't. I'm very sceptical about the whole 'inject me with coronavirus' crap and I'm sure a lot of this is Cartman-esque in rewriting the story in his own head. But the fact that he can say this stuff and for people to think "yeah, that might be true' is damning enough in itself. If there...

    But apparently it's Labour that think the public are idiots. When will people learn the opinion the Tories have of them is far, far worse. They're just as careful as possible to not say it in public.

    True. has he said much about Gove? As I'm certain he's looking to get him in to replace Boris as his next puppet since he's decided to let Carrie tell him what to do instead of Cummings.

    This isn't new. It's been happening for a long, long time. And not just in the public sector. History of CEO's periodically moving on and basically doing like the managerial merry-go-round. Turn up and say 'I've been left a mess by my predecessor' stick around for about 3 years for the pay etc...

    It's what I don't get. He's throwing himself under the bus as much as anyone else. He was a major player and advisor at this time, so whatever happened is on him too, regardless of what he says. If he thinks he shouldn't have been in that position, there was nothing stopping him saying 'No - I'm...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    But if you stifle expenditure in the economy by depressing wages you're preventing the economy recovering in the private sector as people don't have money to spend in it. Thus tax receipts go down and more jobs are lost in the private sector, increasing costs of social security etc. In bad...

    Because a government will see the benefits of it as those people will spend that money in the economy, leading to increased tax revenues, job creation and thus less pressure on providing benefits etc. Or that's the theory at least. A private company you can spend more on the wages but they may...

    If your kids went for a night out in the tiniest microskirt and a top that barely covered anything, would you not have had something to say about it? Would you let perceived social norms of our society suggest they wear something more 'appropriate' even if they didn't want to? Or would you just...

    Is Denis Law a Man U legend? Went from Man U to Man City and scored the goal that got Man U relegated. EDIT: Just seen grendel has already made this point.

    I agree. His footballing talent is without question and based on that he would be in the squad, even with the plethora of attacking talent we have.

    I thought the big issue a lot of people had with the EU was freedom of movement and no control of the borders?
