Along_the_Wire yup, my son’s came back from his driving lesson and said the same. No arseholes up his behind putting him under pressure
Coronation
Went to the gym. Fuck that shit.
Hearing Ed was only so into watching it because someone said he would see Black Rod.
Surprised they let Liz Truss attend considering she basically killed the queen.
I’ve had to turn it off as there now interviewing ex boxer Anton Du Beke.
There a street party in the road that you access my road off tomorrow and as luck would have it I’m doing an mtb race tomorrow too so I get to avoid/ignore it
This AI imagery stuff is a bit shit init.

What a fucking cesspit twatter can be. About 3 posts down there’s another bit about Charles contributing 30k to a feed for the homeless.
Both could be wrong, both could be true. But what people get out of posting shite to prove a ‘point’ is beyond me.
Not a great mirror on human nature.
Amps my source is The Times and therefore behind a paywall but look into it and correct me if I’m wrong.
None of it is pensions - this is working age benefits I’m talking about.
Don’t know how it compares to 10 yrs ago but it’s “up 52% since the pandemic and by £34bn since Rishi Sunak became Chancellor (which is more than the combined annual budgets of the Home Office and the Foreign Office). “
“There are 5.5 million economically inactive people excluding students and retired people. “

Unemployment levels at an all time low though aren’t they?
I rather enjoyed it. a lovely way to pass the time whilst doing the ironing. Millie looked fidgety. Charlie looked a little bored. Hazza bugged out early.
Along_the_Wire yeah but there’s millions claiming incapacity benefits and therefore not counted as unemployed because they’re not seeking work
- Edited
The reality is a bit more nuanced than that.
The main benefits: Jobseekers Allowance, Employment Support Allowance (ESA), (which replaced Incapacity Benefit) is now claimed under the umbrella of Universal Credit (UC). ESA claimants are put into different ‘groups’: those who are assessed as being incapable of actively seeking work and those who are able to actively pursue work.
From memory, around ⅓ of all UC claimants are in employment already but claim UC to top up their wages because they in ‘in work poverty’. What was the Tories’ answer to this? “They should just get better paid jobs”.
If you meet the criteria of the assessment, you might be able to claim Personal Independence Payment (PIP) which is payed to those in employment and those incapable of work.
Liverpool are now the new celtic.
Can’t fault the dippers for their continued and tireless disdain of the Tory filth, the tax dodging, Nazi sympathetic, pedo protectors and of course scruffy faced manc scum.
It’s a thumbs up from me 
Long may he reign
Won’t be the first ring that big fat sausage has fingered.
Funky riddled with paedos?
Cankles-McJeggings I was there, it was the loudest crowd noise by far all day
Along_the_Wire The unwashed lol.
alistair how so?
mono-stereo Presumably by basically forcing every club to play the national anthem…
There was only one way that would go at Anfield.
Then you get the likes of Piers Morgan inevitably frothing at the mouth, which is just going to encourage Liverpool fans further.
If there was anyone with any common sense, they would have quietly shifted Liverpool Brentford to Monday night out of the way, months ago.
mono-stereo PR own goal by prem league. It was inevitable what would happen

Ah, I didn’t realise they did this. Yeah that was daft.
