That tends to happen when the former MP decides to acid attack people and wasn't even who the local electorate wanted as the labour candidate anyway.

The lies get ever more egregious If he is on about our winter then he is taking the piss. It’s been very mild. They just lie and lie until they seem to believe the absolute shit that the spout. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d imagine you’d be pretty p*ssed if your last two MP’s had been Keith Vaz and then Claudia Webbe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lionator Posted 4 February 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 4 February 2022 Did anybody listen to the 5Live drive show from Leicester yesterday? There was a woman from New Parks who had to be fact checked when she denied Sunak was a billionaire, then once that had happened she said he deserves it because he’s clearly worked hard for it. The red tops have completely poisoned the minds of brits over the years. And it may not be popular but I agree with Corbyn, there should be no billionaires in Britain, it is obscene although clearly and oddly seems like an unelectable opinion. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Strokes Posted 4 February 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 4 February 2022 Let’s not forget when the conservatives came to power there was a massive boom in the solar panel industry. People were getting back 49p per KW feed in tariff, they gradually reduced this to next to nothing. Which made the investment of putting renewable energy into the grid absolutely worthless. 13 years on, if that boom had continued we would barely be reliant at all on fossil energy for electricity. They are responsible for our reliance on Russia and foreign generated energy. **** them. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snot nosed Tory media sympathisers like this make up a large part of why that sock full of porridge even has a job. The amount of people who voted/will still vote for him because of his bumbling facade is pretty frightening. He’s evil, the worst kind of Tory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had this argument with my dad before. His point was essentially "but people need aspirations", which I ultimately agree with. However, it has to be within reason. I fundamentally believe in the concept of being able to make large sums of money through hard work and innovation, but just not at the expense of people not being able to eat or have a roof over their heads. I think people don't quite realise how much money £1billion really is. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think people don't quite realise how much money £1billion really is. Think this also ties in to how the country needs to view taxes - In Germany for example it's seen as a point of patriotic pride if you pay more tax as you're helping others within your community. Always struck me as odd that as a nation we celebrate how much money we can raise when it's children in need - but not question why the charities they help are needed in such volume. Of course, it's far easier to be happy about paying more tax if that tax rise doesn't make you sh*t yourself everytime you put the heating on. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiberalFox Posted 4 February 2022 Share Posted 4 February 2022 I do wonder if replacing billion with 1000 million in political discourse would have an effect. "Government overspends £4.7bn". doesn't seem to attract much attention "Government overspends £4,700 Million" maybe sounds like more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He married into that wealth which has also clearly aided his career. He’s done very little to deserve it. For example his brother is a psychologist who will probably earn around £50k a year, comfortable but a psychologist is far more worthy of wealth than a lucky banker/husband.

But a lot of people get their opinions from news sources and media outlets owned by, erm, billionaires.

As long as they lay their taxes I don’t see the problem. there was a report last week listing the highest tax payers in the country last year …… didn’t get much publicity compared to the stuff about those that don’t pay their share. We should celebrate high tax payers. Many of them bring in earning from overseas than then pay tax here on that income/capital gain. 58 minutes ago, BKLFox said: Soon make that if your someone like Kylie Jenner earning $1.2m per social media post, she will be classed as self made but jeez its hardly a Richard Branson rags to riches style as already mentioned, you may need to check out the history of ‘pauper’ dickie B Edited 4 February 2022 by st albans fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
