    Taking a break from contracting

    Comment

      EU Brexit team absolutely delighted to see Tories out-negotiated by DUP for a billion quid

        Of course the real issue here is now that the DUP has its grubby paws on the Westminster button, where is its incentive to return to power sharing? This has the potential to destroy the Good Friday agreement, all so the Tories can cling onto power. The Docklands and Manchester IRA bombs were 21 years ago, we don't need to return to that.

        All hail Mother Theresa.

          The real issue... is you have a government that'll strike off the ill on disability and send them to work to recover a few £ per week. Or they'll skimp £2 per square meter on cladding causing the lives of many but they can find a billion pounds to buy 10 or so votes from terrorist sympathisers.

          Why people are not marching the streets. The French would have shut down their country already.

            So what 3/4 weeks of money we would have given the eu?

            Not ott in the grand scheme of things really.

            Unless you have an axe to grind obviously.

              These days £1trn is peanuts.

              Exactly. Tin pot Italians spent 5x bailing out one tulipty bankrupt Italian bank.

              We send 10x to India in "aid" for them to buy nuclear weapons and a space station.

                I used to wonder what NI contributions on my payslip meant.

                Now I know.

                  It stands for No Income - ie your tax money goes to people with No income.

                  This may be a disabled veteran, a single mother at home with the kids, a pensioner, or just a lazy farker.

                      Except in YOUR particular case it stood for Naturally Imbecilic!
