LT42 The Strawberry Hall has got to be one of the best pints of Guinness I’ve had.

Still good.

Are reform going down the religious route and immigration just like Trump

Millsy

Dubman in short, yes they are. Farage sounds more and more like the mango Mussolini every day. Probably on the blower to Steve Bannon and Stephen Miller for tips and tricks most days.

I can’t fathom how people don’t see through him, but then remember how racist and hateful people are, and I put the kettle on as reality seeps back into focus.

Because people still confuse leadership and taking sensible decisions for the good of the country with the perception that you need to the political equivalent of a social media influencer or popular reality show contestant.

Amps

Defo warping reality. The Digweed vortex of journalism.

Another reason to nationalise these kind of companies, outrageous behaviour but most likely common practice

Ouch. Revenge really is a dish best served cold.

Along_the_Wire

alistair this is weaksauce - WASPIs didn’t know about the change in retirement age with it being headline news for a decade? The Tories did fuck all too.

Hursty

Along_the_Wire it’s similar to breaking the law and using ignorance as a defence, unfortunately that’s not how it works

Hugo kicking this one into the weeds and stamping on everyone’s joy as standard.

VR46

3rd runway at Heathrow to target growth lol. So much for air quality after Ulez and net zero.

Instead of stupid runway start drilling more to bring our electricity prices down and create more growth. Only 10% solar and wind today in UK, there will always be a need for oil and gas. Net zero scam.

RichM

VR46 or we could do multiple things at the same time. We should be looking at growth in multiple places and for different purposes.
