Problem with pensions is the number of pensioners to workers. Same would be true for anything else. Has the figure changed for disability or unemployment? The latter I don’t think so. The former maybe post pandemic?

Corporate jobsworths. Went to the M&M store with my nine year old. Getting custom m&ms is her favourite thing in the world so we have to do it every time. Queued for ages, got to the front, she’s a huge Taylor Swift fan and wanted Taylor Swift M&Ms (no judgement) did the photo thing handed it...

Reece Charles Cook: the greatest keeper we’ve ever had

Cheers. Annoying it doesn’t give a decent figure, it interesting the top 1% income share is double other places and peaked at about 14% even if its say 12% that’s a third of the top quintile just in the top 1% and the other 19% with about 20-ish% give or take. I would say this cos I’m in that...

Where did you find that? I was looking for income share before and couldn’t find anything.

He’s average for aerial duels won, but exceptional for passing progressiveness. It’s number of passes completed so says nothing about accuracy.

Think JSA and ESA have contribution requirements as well.

They’re not a complete idiot. They’re arguably too quick to accept every progressive idea as a good one, but fundamentally trying to respect people doesn’t make someone an idiot does it? Trump uses woke language on the right about immigrants and taxes and guns and abortion and vaccines because...

Exactly this. If beating Trump was so easy the sitting president wouldn’t have stepped down for the first time ever despite an outstanding record. She’s not an idiot is she mate? She’s passed law school and comes from a family of academics. She’s a Democrat in 2024 who has large amounts of...

OK. Make your case. What’s wrong with her? Anything at all? Cos all I’ve heard from you is vague accusations of being substandard and esoteric complaints about the political process that’s selected her.

Lol no. NI isn’t hypothecated. You pay tax, including NI, and you get benefits in the form of state pension etc. benefits may go up as well as down like any other benefits. If what you said was true then you could make the same argument about literally any benefit (UC/PIP/etc).

Twitter is a garbage fire but then you get exchanges like this that make it worth it.

Why is she? You’re just saying stuff you read online. She’s a big standard politician. Completely unremarkable. Oh no she didn’t win a presidential race before. What? So what?

I liked working retail. But when I was offered a managerial role I said no because it was fuck all extra for a shit ton of having to herd cats.

In most low level jobs like retail it’s an absolute poisoned chalice.

Nah we’d have stayed up. my thoughts exactly

That’s an ability.

Very rich man who bought a farm purely for the tax dodge and has said as much isn’t happy with the budget. Sounds like a win to me.

Who the fuck is hiring Zoomer managers?
