If he’s not offered a contract no compo AFAIK

Id expect it to be separate funding pot entirely from normal council budgets.

I don’t see how this sort of thing would work in the private sector. Didn’t Corbyn have some RTB for private renters policy proposal, how did that work?

Im more banging the drum about what a thin squad we can sustain TBH. Whatever the bean counting required, from a football perspective I’d argue you need at least 20 players before you get to the kids, ideally 22/23.

Ah! Didn’t know that. I’d obviously read an old article. Cheers.

By my count we’ve not got 20 first team players even counting Dacosta at the moment. If we get shot of him, Kelly, Kane, Waghorn and Walker as suggested I reckon that puts us at 14, so six signings minimum before we’re onto the kids at first injury. Edit: we used 25 last season, even chucking...

This and something to leave the kids are my main reasons for buying.

This is the real problem:

Again about half way

We’re about in the middle for the EU IIRC

Yeah I could go for that as well, some level of consistent rent payment at a similar level to the mortgage should be enough.

People want to move for all sorts of reasons. Someone living their all their life renting would still be subsidised. And when they die theit estate could only take out what they put in with the rest reverting to the council. Or maybe they could sell 99 year leases or something? Im not a massive...

Theres actually evidence of a change in peoples thinking there. Hopefully we can wean people off property as their main long term investment here. Hard though as more people understand it and we don’t have the culture of managing your own investments like places like the states do.

Not for or against the idea but you could say social tenants don’t pay rent on top and when they sell either half the value goes to the council or even the renter only gets back their payments plus inflation or something.

We need massive land reform in this country. Between foreign investment, landed gentry, second homes and buy to let, we’ve fucked the housing market. I wonder if you could implement something to distinguish between investors and people wanting to live in a house? Then you could add premiums or...

Only person I’ve ever known grow tobacco was my grandad who used to do it on his allotment and cure it in his attic for his pipe. Smelt amazing.

What do you think has been happening the last few months? While the west won’t step in or step up arms deliveries because they’re scared of Russian nukes, Russia has no reason to give up the chance to add another piece of leverage over the world.

Not sure how handing Russia massive amounts of grain supply will help that exactly. You’re proposing we add grain to oil and gas as tools of an authoritarian and frankly dangerous regime.

I think nicotine addiction will carry on through vapes, which seem to have make it cool in schools again. I’d like to see all Nicotine products kept away from the general gaze i think, just allow them in specialised vape shops (there’s enough of them).

See this proposal is being floated to raise the minimum age for buying tobacco by a year every year until no one can buy it. What do we think? Not generally a fan of prohibition as it doesn’t tend to work, but equally as a smoker smoking is fucking stupid. Will vapes kill smoking anyway? Will...
