    Just got one mode hasn’t he. Such a talent as well but needs to play the situation better. Having said that it will be interesting to see how tricky it is under lights which would justify being a bit more aggressive (not reckless though !) earlier on. Got to try to just see Starc off sometimes...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    here’s the article https://www.thesun.co.uk/fabulous/798031/can-you-really-think-your-boobs-bigger/ Now I’m quite a spiritual person and a believer in the power of the mind. I’d even go as far to say as I believe that hypnosis can work for some people if they have the determination/strength of...

    Yeah, there’s mixed commentary on it which is why I mentioned he didn’t charge for it

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    He was a hypnotherapist (I don’t think he charged for the boob enlargement session but that’s weird and makes you wonder what he has charged a lot of people, many of whom were probably desperate, for). He switched from Lib Dem’s to Greens when he wasn’t selected and he’s now just been telling...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It’s bordering on impossible to get clear, unbiased data on the internet and I’m very careful with what I post which is why the original post info was direct from DWP I can give you a personal opinion though. Mental health is the most difficult disability to accurately detect/assess and...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    As it states, mental health claims, left over issues from pandemic (although the dip and then increase in total claimants suggest there’s something else at play) and ‘the system’ Here’s some more but feel free to dig up some data/info that supports that the system is fine as it is...

    Just googled AI Overview In February 2025, 4.4 million people in England and Wales claimed an incapacity or disability benefit, marking a 9% increase from February 2024 . This rise is influenced by various factors, including the aftermath of the pandemic, a rise in mental health conditions...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    There has got to be a better way and surely it’s not beyond the whit of man/woman to solely focus on those with minor disabilities/mental health first and work back from there. I only added the means testing comment to indicate there’s likely to be wastage there as well ie people who compared...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    This is a bad take Dave and the neither the stats nor the numerous anecdotal evidence support this. If people don’t think there are large numbers gaming/maximising the system they’re naive. here’s a couple of stats from DWP…. ‘4.4 million people in England and Wales claimed an incapacity or...

    In opposition Labour should’ve prepared a short and medium term industrial strategy, linking in public/private employers and further education. What sectors are growing, what are the employment requirements and where, what migration is required, what do we need kids to study, do we...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I was expecting one after Covid and then again when rates spiked around Ukraine war and it’s just not happened (moral of the story don’t follow my predictions !!!). The problem is net migration has significantly outpaced house building, throw in people living longer and demand has just been...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Don’t disagree. But there’s more nuance to it. Do you want large numbers of kids born into borderline poverty just to up the overall birth rate ? Do you want to increase low pay/low skill immigration who over their lifetime will be a net cost to the state, just to bump the total numbers ? Just...
