    General Election 2019 thread

    I think he didn’t actually though. “CAN I FINISH!!!??” For example. He clearly got annoyed and occasionally snapped and just looked like he’d lost it. Laughing at their ridiculousness is definitely the way to go. But got to be judicious with it. All the fuss some on the left are making about...

    Im no fan of RLB but did like her response to the Guido fake news about her husband the other day.

    He’s a stopped clock. He’s always against military action and on average military action probably is wrong more than its right, but when it’s right it’s really important and Corbyn wouldnt ever use it in reality. Anyway. Why are we still talking about Corbyn? Let’s leave him in 2019. I see RLB...

    I Dont think Johnson is particularly suited as PM, the gaffes during his time as Foreign Sec prove that for me. Corbyns positions on foreign policy as a whole are an absolute joke though. No argument there. Classic far left “west is always wrong” stuff and lots of virtue signalling. I’m more of...

    General Election 2019 thread

    FWIW I agree on nationalisation and even though I believe in nationalising natural monopolies I’d have recognised the history and said we should do rail first (for the reasons you state) and prove a nationalised company can work in the 21st century. Was more about certain sections of the press’...

    Us Labour supporters have got to make it through the next five years somehow!

    General Election 2019 thread

    Saw a Sun story on Finland or somewhere moving to a four day week. Was tweeted with a clapping emoji and full of praise. Literally less than a month ago they were screeching about Labour thinking about it would ruin the economy. See also the difference between labour suggesting a higher minimum...

    What chances a self appointed organiser with a megaphone being listened to?

    This idea that we can embarrass people into doing *something* is a bit of a non starter to be honest. CCC are helping the club find land by all accounts which is the main thing they need to do. They can’t force Wasps to drop their conditions or Sisu to sign the non-aggression/indemnity clauses...

    Fair enough. I doubt when it’s another country that’s the only team they support, but the support local argument is a strong and fair one.

    Standing up at away games

    Totally agree. I found during the Sixfields season where I went away more than ever that my back won’t allow me to stand for 45 minutes on the spot. Dad can’t stand really and my daughter is short. The ability to move down the front would’ve been greatly appreciated.

    Im not sure how that’s relevant. I don’t follow rugby at all and I’ve heard Wasps mentioned in media and stuff since before they moved here far more than I’ve ever heard Cov.

    I never go in at night, I’m talking about in the day. I didn’t go for a long time and having been in a few times recently it’s far less depressing than it was. Nightlife is poor I’m sure but I’m too old for that these days. I can’t ever remember Coventry having decent nightlife.

    Except I literally just posted there was. I’m happy to get childcare for the AGM and be your proxy vote if you want. That goes for anyone who can’t make it.

    There is a lot to blame them for, not sure what they could’ve done about RICS or the financial crash though. CCS I think was a bad idea from the start. Fine in 1995, but as I say without the higher end consumers we don’t have the demographics to attract the sort of stores we’d need and I really...

    Problem is always money. All the council can do is try and get funding for projects that attract private investment. Take Friargate, they could build Friargate One as a new council house, but needed RICS to support Friargate Two so when they fell through they’re left with a hole. City Centre...
