    Things that annoy you

    There's a Sainsburys near where I work and I pop in sometimes. If I don't go for 3 - 4 weeks I'll get a £10+ voucher appear in my Nectar app

    Immigration and Asylum

    He got his numbers wrong, he also said 'the UK has been colonised by immigrants' which I think is what pissed people off. Doesn't help that he lives in Monaco to avoid paying tax here, a place where the majority of the population are foreign nationals!

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Does anyone know of a valid reason Reform are charging people £250 to apply to be selected as a candidate to stand in the next election?

    Immigration and Asylum

    The last government and the current government have no shut up about immigration. Its hardly something that's being ignored. People are going to Reform because they are a) blaming everything on immigrants and b) promising something there is zero chance they will be able to deliver. Its easier...

    Immigration and Asylum

    The whole system needs to be massively sped up, would solve so many problems. Its not in anyones interest to have thousands of people in hotels for years unable to work or do anything other than hang around. Its asking for trouble. Think this all goes back to when Sunak decided to 'solve' the...

    cricket 2025

    Loving this world cup. Its so much better with the 'smaller' nations in it and playing well. Would prefer to see it go straight to knockout after the group stages. That way if you have a lower ranked team sneak through they're only one good day from a semi final rather than going into the super...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Not sure what it is about the job but local councils seem to be like a magnet for weirdos.

    Immigration and Asylum

    There's a disagreement because pretty much anything less than sinking boats in the channel and zero immigration is interpreted as wanting completely open borders when the vast majority of those you disagree with want tight controls on immigration. The difference is some people are happy to...

    Immigration and Asylum

    There's an HMO for refugees a couple of streets over from me, think it houses 12 - 15 people at any one time. Never really been any bother apart from one woman who clearly has quite severe mental health issues who goes round chatting nonsense to people and asking for money. Pre-covid a couple...

    Cov city centre

    The fire escapes thing was the cause of all the previous cancellations and postponements but they had a new one fitted so fuck knows what has happened now. Frustrating as the majority of stuff there is covers and if they keep messing promoters around with artists like this they won't get many...

    wtf is he on about? they were ahead of the required rate and started trying to smash sixes when they just needed to keep the scoreboard ticking over to win

    cricket 2025

    Few overs ago Finn was talking about how they just need to keep ticking over and can get there without taking any risks then they implode again. We were lucky to beat Nepal and now we've lost to the Windies who aren't exactly the hot favourites for the tournament.

    Farage telling everyone to go into the office, how much time does he spend in an office in Clacton?

    Six Team Play-Offs are coming

    tbh I'd quite happily go back to 3 up, 3 down but there's zero chance of that happening. In reality how many dead games are there with the present system? Can't be that many games where neither team has anything left to play for.

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    We've gone full circle and the streamers have reinvented cable TV. Sky now offering a package with its entertainment channels, Disney, Netflix, HBO and Hayu (nope, I've never heard of it either), all with ads.

    cricket 2025

    So close for Afghanistan, 2 super overs needed for South Africa to win. Been some great close games from the underdogs so far. Hope this puts to bed the constant 'should only be the test sides at the world cup' rubbish. IMO we need smaller groups so that a loss for one of the big teams really...
