    I'm not sure why you've picked up so heavily on the tax thing given the other points I made. I certainly didn't mention the UK having a regressive tax system, although it has given me some flashbacks on tax theory lectures and the pros and cons of a tax free allowance and incremental tax rates...

    In a modern society people should be allowed to cling to phallacies if they want.

    He has said in an interview that one of his regrets is not spending more time with his mother. He had the opportunity, he chose money instead. And you know that if he was given his time over he'd still chase the £ again. Those that make it do so because they're ruthless, bordering on...

    But the point is that you and your small business competitors are there fighting over the scraps left by those that get it easy. I think what annoys me more is when those people complain about taxes and actively deprive society of improving out of sheer greed. I greatly admire your work ethic...

    Bright Enobakhare

    Maybe. But of those three I'd still have Bayliss as the first one to be given 'free licence' to push forward and take on Bright's roles of carrying the ball. Allen can of course do it and had a superior scoring record to Bayliss, but he seems better equipped as a more box-to-box midfielder than...

    If you insist, but it might take me a while - I'm not getting any younger unfortunately.

    Transfer Rumour Bids for Chaplin

    Not if he plays like his dad - I don't want a centre forward playing in our own half making clearances and tackling. In all seriousness Walker was a very decent player and scored a cracker of an OG in the cup final.

    But how many people would be able to watch them if the stadium was shut due to not being up to health and safety standards ;) Would you go to a game knowing there was a high chance you were going to get dysentry from unclean toilets, e-coli from poorly prepared and cooked food or electrocuted...

    Bright Enobakhare

    I agree I can see Bayliss in that role as MR's back-up option. He'd play it differently to Bright but he could still be effective. He can carry the ball forward himself but can also play a good through ball. I think Allen was brought in as a Bayliss replacement because he was either going to...

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    And Boris does everyone up like a kipper again. The thing with Boris is you're never quite sure why this came about. Is it a deliberate ploy by Boris and his team to keep the news cycle going? Was it done by the supposed editor to discredit Boris and show he doesn't research or understand what...

    The World Is Drugged Up ?

    How many people take pure crack or heroin? Hardly any. Many other drugs have progressed the arts and cultures as well. Many famous artworks, literature, songs have been conceived when the creator was high, from stuff like mushrooms through LSD to ecstacy and cocaine. Why are those demonised? I...

    The World Is Drugged Up ?

    It was something I was told by a hospital lab worker. They said it would burn probably through your oesophagus, but if it didn't it would either cause horrific swelling or internal bleeding and you'd choke to death. Maybe they were being a bit melodramatic with the 'drop' but it's kept in very...

    Although bad taste, I thought the "Van Persie - if a girl says no, molest her" to Rewind by Craig David was quite witty in its way. I think "There's Only Two Andy Goram's" remains my favourite

    I think I may have mentioned this before, but a client from a few years ago when he had children asked us to set up a trust fund for them from birth. An infant literally just been born was richer than everyone in my team put together. And the client himself had a £1m house built for him in the...
