    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    Taking educational decisions out of the hands of trained, professional teachers and educational staff and putting it in the hands of stupid parents and Tory politicians. All to snatch votes. And all at the cost of children’s education. Because we all know that not talking about a subject...

    The Fall Guy is f***ing terrible.

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    Benefit or not, being forced to pay tax on something that was taken from you as a tax in the first place is f***ing obscene.

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    Brexit doesn’t affect me in that sense as I am an Irish citizen and still have freedom of movement. As for the financials, that’s going to be less of a problem abroad that it will ever be in the UK.

    [Albion] Should the Albion invest in an airfield?

    Yeah, it’d be a great look for a modern family club. Flying everyone around in helicopters and private jets. They could always offset the carbon footprint by turning the stadium into a large solar panel.

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    There is no way I’m retiring in this country, whoever is in power. Unless you are very comfortably off, growing old is awful in the U.K. Unless you are a working unit or the government can raid your bank account, you are useless to them and they’d rather you just hurry up and die. There is...

    [Politics] Natalie Elphic defects to labour

    I have lost a huge amount of respect for Labour over this. To the point where I don’t think I’ll be voting for them in the GE. They’ve dropped a massive bollock here.

    Just so you know, I’ll be leaven the funeral early.

    [Drinking] Tip your barstaff!

    As long as my employer pays me what they are contracted to pay me and what they said they would pay me when I signed the contract, I’m happy.

    [Drinking] Tip your barstaff!

    It’s Covid that’s done this. Covid and the subsequent withdrawal of praise and financial assistance from menial workers. During the lockdown, waiters and bar staff and the like were sat at home on 80% pay, getting £400 lump sums deposited into their accounts from universal credit every few...

    [Drinking] Tip your barstaff!

    I’ve heard that but when I am in Brighton which I am every Friday and Saturday night, it’s busy. Restaurants and bars are full. I can certainly understand people not wanting to work in it though. Who want to be shouted at by chefs, moaned at by customers, deal with drunk dickheads, groping...

    [Drinking] Tip your barstaff!

    The hospitality industry is largely staffed by young people. Trouble with that these days is if you don’t treat young people like Christ reborn and compliment and compensate them for every thing they do, they cry “Trauma”! And take you to court for causing CPTSD. Get them back down the mines...

    [Drinking] Tip your barstaff!

    I’ll tip for exceptional service. Saying hello, pulling a pint, and charging me £6.50 for the privilege? Frankly they’re lucky to get a f***ing “thank you”.

    [Drinking] Tip your barstaff!

    No. I shan’t be tipping bar staff. I tip my barber. I tip at restaurants that haven’t had the cheek to add on their own service charge and if they’ve given good service. I used to tip taxi drivers but they’re a rip off and mostly a bunch of ****s. That’s it. Sorry but my hard earned isn’t...

    [News] Madonna - the greatest?

    She peaked in the 90’s. I don’t really know what she’s up to these days but for a few years at the end of the last century, she was gorgeous and ruled the charts and arenas. All power to her.

    [News] Solar Storm Warning

    Ah. That’s why all the neighbours are out in the back gardens keeping me awake on a rare Friday night off. How long is this going on for?

    [Politics] Sir Keir Starmer’s route to Number 10

    They do. They have proposed 3 or 4 collaborative initiatives. All turned down point blank by the Tory’s who then also tried to blame the French for the issues. Understandably causing the French to give up and let the boats leave for our shores. I guess they thought “if you won’t help solve the...

    [Politics] Sir Keir Starmer’s route to Number 10

    I suppose the big difference here is that they are targeting the trafficking gangs and not the victims. Combine that with an efficient asylum processing system and anybody could reduce the asylum issue substantially within a year. I’m not saying Labours’ approach will succeed but thus far...
