    Transfer Shouts

    My two best mates are Wycombe fans and we’ve discussed this for a while (since I thought we were selling ohare in summer). Really kicked on this season. Looks a player but never know about step up ps Ainsworth mentioned 5m…no chance obviously but wonder if we’d have the cash if others are sniffing

    The official NFL Thread

    Definitely. There’s so much money swilling round in it surely they could have an adequate retirement fund for young players retiring early through injury ?! Don’t the players/players unions have a decent say in the NFL ?

    Agree about social care. Whoever made the call not to direct the additional funding to social care immediately was crazy (I blame government and NHS/PHE for this). If it’s true that 10% of beds are blocked by people who don’t need to be in hospital surely that’s a far quicker win than chucking...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Needs a cross party long term solution and for the country to recognise the nhs as was is gone unless we pay a lot more into the pot over our lifetimes and/or start looking after ourselves a lot better Ps Clint - Ponzi scheme might’ve sounded a bit of an OTT analogy but it was intentional. what...

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    Two films I’ve seen recently worth catching Hell or high water - Jeff bridges and Chris pine. Modern day outlaw film. unfortunately likely to have to pay to watch on sky store etc. well worth it though. Can’t believe I’ve never come across it before The oak room - bit quirky, suspense film on...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I was agreeing that, historically at least, migrants are net contributors. I can’t comment on recent years pre and post pandemic as I’ve not seen any data. Unfortunately if they’re contributing more but we have more inactive working age people, then there probably isn’t the additional cash to...

    Probably a significantly lesser proportion of migrants that don’t contribute compared to U.K. born and bred

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    About time as you say. Also, did I read that we limit the number going through medical school ?! There needs to be a proper long term plan around staffing of nhs and social care.

    Have you seen how long it takes to build stuff in this country ?!

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I agree with what youre saying. My point was that even if the government spent the cash wisely (which they don’t) there’s always going to have to be a period of catch up on infrastructure and that’s not including throwing a pandemic in the mix. You can’t have a population the size of Cov popping...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I’m always a bit sceptical about net tax benefit stuff, especially when we’re around time of a pandemic where more people are needing things like doctors, hospitals etc and are probably unable working as much due to illness etc. It will depend on the tax take from migrants, over what period and...

    Prince Harry

    Yeah, both as bad as each other. Not sure who’s advising them both ..having said that they are making themselves richer than most people could ever imagine so (my shoulder shrug emoji isn’t coming up for some reason) Ps I’ve no doubt losing his mum at such an early age and all that being...

    Prince Harry

    Not really, he is selling his and his families private life for tens of millions (book, Netflix etc)….on the back of his royal titles…even though he appears to have major issues with the institution. That’s just fact not media narrative I can’t see him and Megan as anything but hypocrites for a...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Both, mainly Tory shitshow but don’t discount the benefits of Starmer being seen as just a sensible, competent and less threatening alternative than someone like Corbyn. Whether some like it or not, he has restored some credibility for Labour amongst the electorate. He just doesn’t really...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I can’t really comment on what’s teached in school or what Sunaks plans entail but if he’s looking to improve better numeracy/practical lifestyle maths skills that makes sense. I don’t know if that also needs to be covered better pre 16 with changes to curriculum as well though The main...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I’ve not seen the percentage increases elsewhere but France is predominantly reliant on nuclear (which they own) and Germany use a lot of dirty coal. unfortunately our drive towards gas has maybe fucked us as we rely on this more than others. When the winds not blowing we also use gas to produce...
