    Of course it's a predominantly male thing, especially the violence as it's exacerbated by testoterone. But does that mean we should generalise it and assume all men are likely to do it? No. That's why the idea of this 'male curfew' is utterly absurd. You can't punish a majority of people for...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Covid will have played a part, but that'd work in both directions and even out - swings and roundabouts. Any drop in our exports would be matched in a drop in our imports. When you look at non-EU it's roughly equal - about 9%. But our exports to the EU have dropped by a huge amount compared to...

    Piers Morgan leaves GMB

    It kind of is a lot of the time, with Norcott brought in just to give it balance. I find Parris quite condescending and seems to have a massive opinion of herself. Some of the stuff she does about men is really lazy stereotyping - she's almost a reverse Bernard Manning at times. Nish is REALLY...

    The official NFL Thread

    Still find it amazing that most capitalist nation on Earth uses a socialist principle to even out the competition in its favourite sport. You literally get rewarded for being shit. Then I remember it's a closed system and all the 'franchises' are just money making machines for the billionnaire...

    4 Day Weekend

    It prob will be when it eventually happens. Whatever the outcome of something it'll be celebrated as a victory cos history is written by the winners. Like Bonfire night - we'd still have that even if they'd succeeded because it'd have been seen as a great victory against monarchy/Protestantism...

    4 Day Weekend

    Yep, great way to say thank you - give everyone else a day off while they have to work! If it was in the summer probably make it worse if people sat drinking all day.

    Wan Bissaka

    As well as those two there's Reece James and James Justin who aren't shabby. Max Aarons is also one for the future. Left side much less so. you've got Chilwell and Saka, who's very attack minded and then....? Next one I can think of is Shaw.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    A civilised society would consider others and would happily put up with the minor inconvenience to try and prevent hundreds of thousands of people getting ill. Even a selfish one would think it'd give themselves a better chance of not getting ill. I didn't realise Japan wasn't civilised.

    Tie them all together and use them as a roller to keep the surface flat?

    I also don't believe you'd say "an agreement has been made", then say " it needs to be checked over by the legal teams". If it hasn't been written down and checked by the legal teams it's not been agreed at all.

    Big sky blue news tomorrow

    Indeed it must have. Just doubt the reason for it would be to prevent SISU pulling out, or even vice-versa. If anything it's more likely to scupper the agreement...

    Big sky blue news tomorrow

    Doubt it. Leaking info would be more likely to see the animosity and bad blood return and someone pulling out of the deal. Even if it was said SISU pulled out, SISU would deny it and blame it on Wasps and then it's the usual 'he said, she said' and people believing whichever side they want to.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    I agree and it can act as an adjuster. If there are loads of loans remaining unpiad it shows that the education sector isn't providing the skills and employment it's supposed to help towards. This leads to questions being asked as to the validity of some of the courses on offer and how students...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Probably the same stuff as those that gave free HE and grants to students at a time when it was largely the preserve of the wealthy and priviliged. Oh, and they could sign on as unemployed too. HE needed to be opened up to a broader range of people and that wasn't going to be affordable, but at...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    If you read later on I mention the point of the stock market and potential effects, including on pensions. Also worth noting any effects would be due to investors trying to avoid the 'corp dividend tax' and I mention putting a similar thing into things like interest, venture capital etc to...

    He's playing against poor teams in a poor league for a team that has only one real competitor and they've been shit this year. Put him in a more competitive situation and see how he does...

    Let's be honest, when we saw them all clapping for the NHS many on here said when push comes to shove and it's pay increase time most will argue against giving them much and so it's proved. So I say lets reduce MP pay to average pay for the UK and top it up by clapping them on the doorstep once...
