    Villa at home for me. Should be a big crowd, possible TV game and we would have a chance of an upset.

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

    1. We don't pay £10bn now, the net is around £8bn. How much is replacing all the agencies and authorities we access as part of the EU going to cost? 2. Its not certain we'll leave the customs union but if we do then we have to negotiate good deals for it to be a benefit. There's also a doubt if...

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    Exactly, if the aim is job creation you give tax breaks on things proven to create jobs. And I think we all know who it will be that foots the bill when there is less public money. It will be austerity and 'we're all in this together'.

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    He explicitly stated he wouldn't benefit, he will be millions better off. He kept talking of 'draining the swap', this is exactly the opposite.

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    When Bush did it the rich just moved their money to take advantage of the tax cuts but didn't invest in capital projects or job creation. In fact the rate at which jobs moved overseas increased dramatically.

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    I seem to have missed his promises of tax breaks for the richest. I certainly remember him stating that any changes to tax laws wouldn't benefit him personally.

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    And it wasn't even provided through official routes. The Democrat senators got it off Washington lobbyists! Even the senates own committee estimates it will add $1tn of debt in the next decade.

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    Bush did the same thing so its not like this is something totally new. Why not look at when similar tax changes were introduced previously, that should give a good indication of the chances of success. Of course if people did that they'd see it was a disaster triggering a global financial...

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    What in his tax plans will generate these jobs and who is going to take them given he says unemployment is the lowest it has been for decades? How will it work differently this time to when Bush implemented the same plan back in 2002 which killed American growth and let to the housing bubble...

    This week will be on the BBC website as the FA Cup isn't blocked. Its also on 5 Live Sport Extra but I think they're using the CWR commentary.

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    People like this aren't going to risk doing time if there's a way out of it. They'll be perfectly happy to drop others in it to save themselves. Interestingly Kushner was interviewed recently, by that time they would have had the information from Flynn so were they letting Kushner drop himself...
