    left wing agitation and John Mcdonnell

    As long as I've been voting (I'm 43) there hasn't been an option to vote for socialist labour so it would have been pretty tricky for them to win. During the same period voter turnout among people my age group and under has been low with a common reason given being 'they're all the same'...

    It tells me you can't blame them for the current mess.

    left wing agitation and John Mcdonnell

    Looking at what was said in context he might have a valid point. It was said during a debate titled 'Is Democracy Working'. The full quote from McDonnell was: “Is democracy working? It didn’t work if you were a family living on the 20th floor of Grenfell Tower. Those families, those...

    And the better option is to leave them in there? What if it goes up in flames?

    left wing agitation and John Mcdonnell

    I get it. What you're saying is that your knowledge is superior to that of the experts carrying out the tests and the fire service. They've both said the blocks should be evacuated immediately but obviously you know better.

    left wing agitation and John Mcdonnell

    How is Camden Council not being supplied with the standard of cladding they commissioned and paid for the same as Kensington Council choosing a cheaper option and ignoring repeated warnings? If anything this shows that what Labour has been saying is correct. That the regulations, the same...

    Absolutely, they're already tried to get creationism taught in science lessons in NI.

    If 100 people died because of a fault with a particular car and it was found that another car had the same problem would you happily ignore the experts or expect something to be done? Tests have been carried out by experts, both they and the fire brigade have said the blocks are not safe for...

    left wing agitation and John Mcdonnell

    The evacuation was carried out on the advice of the fire service. The fire brigade won't even allow residents in to collect possessions without an escort. Personally, no matter how inconvenient, I'd want to be moved out immediately if a problem came to light. Imagine if the council ignored the...

    Things that annoy you

    With it being as hot as it has been walking you dog can burn their paws. I'm lucky, mine doesn't get all hyper if he doesn't go for a walk so I just let him wander round the garden, that way he can get in to the shade whenever he wants.

    left wing agitation and John Mcdonnell

    From the information currently available seems to be a different situation. Camden have had the cladding tested and discovered it does not meet the level of fire safety they requested and paid for. They have said they will be taking legal action because of this. Contrast that with a council...

    Ridiculous that the club haven't sorted this out. Should have had preorders up the Monday after the final.

    Academy to stay at Higgs

    Its never made sense to me not to stay where they are now sharing with Broad Street. There's as much land as they need there and there seems to be no sense in building one set of facilities and then moving a couple of years later. Rugby Council have already said they'd be supportive of that.

    Academy to stay at Higgs

    If, and its still a big if, they are in trouble then rather annoyingly it will prove Fisher correct when he's kept banging on about the loan being the issue. ACL under CCC / Higgs ownership had to be bailed out by CCC when Yorkshire Bank got twitchy about the loan being repaid. If Wasps fail...

    Academy to stay at Higgs

    How much of the cost of the rugby facilities will get moved over to the pool that CCC are paying for? The plans for that already had rugby facilities in it, a bit unusual for a swimming pool.
