Come on, you know that’s not true it Dave, Labour should be double digits ahead in the polls after ten years in opposition (a proportion of which were post financial crisis so there were going to be significant cuts under either party) and the mess/paralysis from Brexit (basically nothing’s...

not sure mate, I’m divorced so never paid much attention to it ! I was responding to Ian/Dom’s discussion (based on Neils interview). The comment I made was about the higher dividend tax (£400) and also to say I have no issue with the removal of the marriage tax allowance. Isnt the marriage...

To be fair to Dom I think he was highlighting an example Neil gave last night regarding dividend income on a small pension (from memory - I’d need to check the transcript). The marriage allowance tax break removal is £250, again from memory - I don’t see this a major issue as I presume it’s a...

Come on walsgrave, don’t say stuff like that. You don’t think it’s because they want to strive to be the best they can and have been given a platform to do so ? ps and obviously hold Conservative/Tory beliefs

I won’t defend any politician for use of racist language. Johnson was an idiot to use that language in the article and yes, he should have apologised. As I’ve said before I don’t believe he’s a racist but only he will know, his language certainly hasn’t helped with people’s perception. I still...

Agreed that in long run some might be profitable but there’s a massive cost (initial debt). As I’ve said before I don’t believe Corbyn’s and anti Semite (nor do I believe Johnsons a racist) but his lack of leadership/judgment on the matter is what’s causing him issues. Neil flagged this with...

Ps Johnson will struggle so hope he’s prepped otherwise it could end up being the game changing car crash he’s been desperately trying to avoid !!!

yeah, the paying out of reserves and not really being clear that he knew the higher rate of tax (more because he was under pressure) wasn’t good. Would’ve been better to say borrow more to pay for it as it’s the right thing but couldn’t really win. He needed calling out as it’s a semi bribe...

I know what Tommy means to be fair BSB. Corbyn was trying to convey calmness (which he was reasonably successful with for a majority of the interview) but was rattled He was asked some pretty decent questions to be fair and struggled to give clear/honest responses, partly due to Neil only...

think that’s right Ian

Not sure the MCB are representative of most Muslims. I think successive governments haven’t dealt with them due to historical links to extremists. I have to admit, I’m not sure where the relationship is currently other than looking at their twitter feed, very anti Tory (some of it possibly...

Agree NW. Johnsons terrible at hiding his annoyance....he could explode !!! As I say Corbyn remained pretty calm throughout but he’s just like the rest of them deep down ie economic with the truth, which Neils questioning highlighted (he’ll pay that £60bn waspi/female pension issue ‘out of...

He’ll do it to all of them. It’s how it should be though, calling politicians out for their bullshit and then not letting them off the hook. Corbyn remained reasonably calm on the outside but he was fuming Neil raised a couple of very decent points and arguments I’d not seen/heard before to be...

Let’s be honest none of us will know until the 13th (or at least until the exit polls) so whilst polls are interesting they are currently pretty irrelevant. Polls have been proven to be (in some cases very) wrong in recent years...Brexit, Trump and the 2017 election (although I think they were...

Yeah, snap. Me and my mates arrange an early Xmas get together every couple of years for it. Always deliver !!!

My mate text me literally that exact wording during the programme ! Hadn’t realised it was on. About time she was called out on certain things

Come on Fernando, soft socialism isn’t quite accurate... renationalisation of various industries and the inclusive ownership fund aren’t soft socialism. Many of the basic underlying aims/policies are good but then they have just gone too far in these other areas for me. ps I have no issue with...

Devil next door on Netflix is very good

yeah, far more ‘enjoyable’ and easier to watch than expected. Great film ps watched a classic (for me) again the other day, Drive. Liked You were never really here on Netflix as well
