    There was a hypocrite on here the other week moaning into his copy of mien kampf about how long it took to get from London to Yorshire.
    Let’s hope you two don’t meet, or human cloning is a reality.

    Yes, why not? You can do anything if you set your mind to it and we need to instil that skill into the upcoming generations

    But things are falling apart not because of lack of money, but employing those with zero work ethic in the public sector and wasting the money on nonsense and generous pensions for them. Roads with potholes ignored (they hate drivers), but plenty of money to dig pavements up to put in unused bike lanes. Litter everywhere, but money to plant wild flowers in city centers. Increasing taxes will not fix roads or litter, but just be spent on more idiocy.

    No you do things better, more efficiently and engender a can-do entrepreneurial spirit and stop doing stuff that's expensive and produces no benefit such as the woke green stuff, HS2 and silly smart motorway schemes and then you ask people "what they can do for their country rather than what there country can do for them".

    Remove the apostrophe from the plastic or foil wrapper. Lie on your side with your top leg bent up towards your tummy, or squat down, or stand with one leg raised on a seat. Use your finger to gently push the apostrophe, rounded end first, in to your rectum as high as it will comfortably go.

    He actually said in an interview he expects his own taxes to go up.

    Ask Wes Streeting what a worker is as the shadow health secretary doesn't know.

    started a topic Wots a worker?

    Wots a worker?

    Sir Kneel-a-Lot or the privileged one with special pension provision has defined working people as “people who earn their living, rely on our services and don’t really have the ability to write a cheque when they get into trouble”. So is saving bad and reliance on state handouts good, with this definition the Starmer isn't a working person and we'll be taxed into oblivion

Working...
