Maybe in others it doesn't make such a massive difference in your personal wealth.

Or it does but it's so ingrained people will just accept it even though it effectively makes them second class citizens. They're called landlords for a reason.

Malc, I'm sure you agree that the activist farmers currently blocking roads in central London need to be met with the fullest force of the law. There is a major hospital the other side of the Westminster bridge, it is clearly completely unacceptable for these entitled morons to block the roads.

Anyone think this is all co-ordinated farming in general not some argument over taxation, I certainly got that impression with all the stuff in euro land which I still say is the best we had at the time, has anyone seen the state of bananas or cabbages for that matter?
It's been like back to the 60's.
I remember going down Cov market and a shipment of oranges destined for Germany were in stock for some reason 1.5 times the size of regular fayre!

I’m sure he can manage it if he carries on as he is.

He doesn’t answer questions at all, should be renamed Prime Ministers Waffle time. He sticks to a script of black hole, fixing the foundations blah, blah, blah. The Speaker should really challenge him on it.

He's been in charge for more than a few months and hasn't crashed the economy, so no he can't.

He's come into power and some how making things even worse. The country is fucked and going down hill quicker than anything you've ever seen.

First time in my lifetime we have a government committed to reducing legal immigration and the right are throwing a fit. First one nationalising infrastructure and the left are throwing a fit. Maybe government by people constantly throwing a fit online isn’t the best way to run a country.

Not sure where to put this.


Let’s cut down trees and make a cycle lane which will be optional for cyclists to use.

"Just another folly" as Council to cut down trees for controversial cycle lane

The 26 trees on Clifford Bridge Road will be axed to make way for a two-way track, with work set to start next year

Well, I am in the house that I own, and pay a mortgage and bills on. I have breakfast here, work from here, and my dogs are also here. I walk them in our local park most days.

Not really sure, but I think that qualifies as technically living here. Do you want my council tax band as well?

Seems like quite a long-winded (or evasive?) way of answering quite a simple question!

Having breakfast, a house and dogs somewhere is not the same as living there but ok!

Presumably the review ToR are that austerity must stay (for reducing the MoJ budget is the sole reason why there is a court backlog)

Some jury trials may be scrapped in England and Wales as court backlog hits record high

Review led by Sir Brian Leveson will consider creating ‘intermediate courts’ heard by judge in bid to speed up trials

How is it not living here?

I'm paying bills and and a mortgage and wake up here every day.

You seem absolutely desperate to make an invalidation that doesn't exist.

I'm no expert but it possibly means a loss of on road parking, I drove up there recently I think they've installed parking on the opposite side but if I'm not mistaken they all have driveways that could accommodate a couple of car's it's insane actually I mean where does the fund's come from for mollycoddling owner's who may four or five car's at home overnight possibly unused garage cos they don't put it away or sequence the order of the driveway for a quick getaway in the am ?
