    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.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    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...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    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...

    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?

    Wage-capping will be a long and protracted court case and would likely lead to not only the best foreign players not coming here but also an exodus of the better homegrown talent abroad, which would have advantages and disadvantages. I still think some sort of cap based on income is the way to...

    What's your political compass?

    That's my point. They said that Labour offered nothing. That wasn't true. They offered a lot. The one thing they didn't offer anything on that made sense was Brexit. Cos they tried not to put off anybody and managed to put off almost everybody. On many other things they had a lot of policies...
