    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    As you will probably have guessed I am a public sector pensioner with no mortgage so, up to a point, inflation and high interest rates won't directly affect me personally. Don't think that either will be great for the economy overall. I think it is far too early to describe Reeves or this...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    TBH I don’t really disagree having been a public sector worker during the period of zero pay rises. As I have said before, my concern is the private sector unions using these catch up deals as a starting point and the potential impact on inflation and consequently interest rates.

As an aside,I wish the government would cancel the £10 Christmas payment to benefit recipients. It is, at...

    Of course we don’t, but how are they stopped? Is it an erosion of civil liberties to have a punishment unrelated to the crime? Jailed, lost their job seems punishment enough. Ban them from football, foreign holidays, driving - whatever. Hardly likely to end up with anything other than an...

    Ridiculous headline. The vast majority of places, there were no thugs to be faced down.

    Supporters forum - 21st August

    These are exactly the points I have made that others just can‘t see. Some continue to witter on that the club say they have listened to supporters but put the safe standing elsewhere. I know the difference between a consultation and a referendum- a number apparently don’t. I just think the club...
