I'm obviously also her carer.
And in addition to all this I'm still a successful contractor
See, if you try hard, against all that life throws at you, success can be achieved. Instead of being a dick why not try and live your life more positively, you never know, you may actually feel better about yourself

Looks like Labour will be throwing their weight behind Common Market 2.0 this evening. If this goes through it becomes law on Wednesday if it is confirmed.
Mrs May will then have to enact it whether she wants to or not.
Apparently Labour have decided to throw their weight behind this option precisely because that would most enrage the Brexiteers in the ERG.

If only brexidiots hadn't voted out eh? Oh well, if brexit delivers a Labour government and destroys the Tories well, it's what they deserve for pushing the leave vote

Originally posted by Hobosapien View PostNope. Cheap social housing for the scroungers -> more tax on the workers to pay for it all, except a higher minimum wage -> higher interest rates to control inflation -> houses less affordable to the worker.
If you want cheap debt, get it now!
Just make sure you can still repay it when they want more back for it in the future.

Not really thought it through have you? No change there.
It'll cost the country, but as they say about Brexit, it will be worth it
