    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    You spend your time complaining a soft left leader is too right wing. And has it? Polling suggests the opposite: https://www.newstatesman.com/chart-of-the-day/2022/09/public-support-tax-and-spend

    Zero Chance

    I think we should at least let him get his feet under the table. January is next month and will tell us a lot. And he’s got significantly more evidence of wealth than Storey.

    You think the soft left of the Labour Party are right wing FFS. Good grief indeed.

    Whiplash (Netflix) - Crazy old music teacher man nearly sends young drummer insane. Didn’t think I’d enjoy a movie about drumming but really did.

    Swansea game

    But we didn’t. The club never suggested that we would. It’s not like the pitch or ACL going bust. It was hard ball negotiations that neither side ever thought was going to end up with us not playing there blown up by the press and fans.

    All that was on offer. And SuperKings will want to negotiate anything longer anyway

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    No. 2017 was very specifically about Brexit, there was huge temporary realignment along Brexit lines that none of the others came close to. There was no 2007 election BTW. Cameron was hard right to you because anyone who isn’t a member of the SWP is hard right to you, but to most people he was...

    None of this makes sense to me. When have Sisu given a shiny shite about being liked? Far more likely is my theory Storey was a busted flush and they didn’t have the money to bid before the court date so turned to someone who was interested and could complete quickly. What’s Kings angle in...

    Been to the one at the top of Gosford to sort my daughters phone after a stall in cannon park fucked it up. They were OK. Edit: ah may be the same one!

    Qatar World Cup 2022

    Exactly this. Should have sent Maguire up front and started lumping it long probably even before the penalty miss. Got another striker on who might pick up the loose bits. Anything but keep basically the same shape and style. It’s cup football FFS. Shouldn’t have been trying to shoot from the...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Higher wages have a very small impact on prices overall. Probably more in public services because they’re so labour intensive (I know for a fact school budgets are 85% staff costs for example). But they also come back in tax and student loan payments and reduced benefits bills as well as not...

    Sorry! I just like to tag people if I’m talking about them (unless there are expletives involved 😂)

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Again though they didn’t. 2017 was a Brexit election so can basically be discounted. Cameron was a moderate, Johnson was rhetorically left wing in his campaign (spend money on public services and infrastructure). The first “proper” right winger was Truss and she lasted less time than a lettuce...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Where’s the indication they will though? The number of people who take such a hardline view as people in this thread and live in marginal seats is tiny. That’s the point.

    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Swansea City Match Thread - Saturday 17th Dec

    We’re going to get passed to death like always against Swansea. It’s always the dullest of matches. I seem to recall them playing a stupidly high line last season unless I’ve got them confused with someone else so might be a game to try Tavares?
