    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    When people thrown stuff like this out I'm always intrigued as to how the people they know doing this are getting so much money. There was a point when I thought I might lose my job post-covid. I looked into how much I would receive in benefits and it was basically fuck all, nowhere near enough...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Students can get a 2 year post student work visa fairly easily but the years spent as a student don't count towards the 5 years needed for indefinite leave to remain. Technically if you been in the country for 10 years continuously, even on multiple study visas, without spending more than about...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Non EU makes up over 80% and there's a breakdown on the ONS site, I'm curious how we can look to get the levels down without shooting ourselves in the foot? The university sector is already warning multiple universities are on the verge of bankruptcy due to lower overseas student numbers...

    If you look on the ticketing site you can see what's left and get some idea of how likely he is to get what he wants https://www.eticketing.co.uk/ccfc/EDP/Season/Index/1038

    Premier League thread

    How come there’s no Boxing Day or New Years Day games? Seems a bit odd given Sky were pushing for Christmas Day games last season.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    This already exists to an extent. I’ve worked with people in the past who have wanted to move jobs but can’t even move to the same job with another company under their visa terms. If they had been sacked or made redundant that would be the immediate end of their visa. The idea that you can...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    What I’ve described is absolutely part of their immigration policy. We’ve got people talking about integration, you can’t dismiss policy areas because they aren’t in line with your desires. If you want a Danish system fine, but if you want to cherry picks part of a system to suit then it’s...

    season ticket sales

    Going to be interesting. You could make a pretty compelling argument for a big increase given the number of season tickets sold and games being sold out last season. Let’s hope they don’t go crazy.

    Not cherry picking at all. You’re the one doing that. Your post confirms exactly the point I was making. That when people talk about wanting to copy the danish immigration system what they really mean is pick the parts of it that align with their preferences and ditch the parts that don’t.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    My suspicion is that when people talk about a danish system what they actually mean is cherry picking the bit they agree with. I struggle to believe that if we mirrored their system and worked to ensure migrant families weren’t clustered together in certain areas people would be nodding in...

    24 Hours in Police Custody

    The kabbadi thing was mental as well. They never really explained why it all kicked off and it was way beyond someone having an argument and a bit of a punch up. The second story was so sad. Why the fuck did they have the old fella locked up for months, not like he was going to go on a crime...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    As bad as the actual arrests themselves are I find the way they conduct them deeply concerning. People who are not in uniform, often with face coverings or even balaclavas, turn up to public places, grab people, won’t tell friends, family or legal professionals where they are being taken or...

    Is this both genuine and not missing context? Surely can’t be suggest anyone who happens to be Pakistani is removed from the country?

    Moving House

    There's a handful gone up by my Mum recently. Usually go instantly but at the moment they seem to be struggling to even get viewings. Guess the market is slow for whatever reason and people don't want to drop below what they've been given as a valuation or what other properties have sold for.
