It’s things such as that which cause resentment amongst moderates. In the age of SM it also allows Farage and the like of TR to supply plenty of supporting evidence footage to attack the soft underbelly of those trying to shout them down. They prise that open and drive a very effective wedge...

Well he’s a fruitloop for sure, I’ll give you that. Looks like most people have had enough with the SM madness and just moving away into their own spaces are leaving the nutters to yell at each other. Not sure how we move forward though, there’s enough material out there to fuel any narrative...

I dunno, there’s always been a lot of intolerant superiority coming from the left. If you’re putting the burden on them to show they’ve changed, then that assumes you’re right and they are wrong and they have to meet your view, and until they do they can in fact ‘get fucked’ - which is...

She knows a lot of Labour voters will have voted for it and there’s no point rubbing them up the wrong way so you might as well side-step the B factor and pin all the blame on Tory mismanagement.

There’s certainly some discussion amongst ‘users’ as to where the technology is going and where you sit with it. I think if we’re happy to hand ourselves over completely to restrictions and controls in the interests of safety and the environment and have implicit trust in those deciding those...

I’m assuming you’d be happy with legislation that stopped your car exceeding the speed limit or perhaps automatically deducted money from your bank account if you did? Not trying to pick a fight Mark and I’m trying to avoid going all ‘20 minute cities’ and conspiracy theories, but it seems...

Wow. Not sure if that’s in a good or bad way but anyway, bloody hell Elon, wow.

We’re in the transitional stage to driverless so the ability to disable those systems is only going to be temporary. Unless I’m mistaken 2024 is the year those annoying bongs that sound when you exceed the speed limit can’t be turned off. Plenty of YouTube vids of people driving along with...

Well the policy is rapidly turning Vancouver into a shithole, it’s noticeable how much worse it is even from last year. I think anyone following what’s going on would be very wary of implementing anything similar. Interesting reading about the backlash and proposals to remove the...

Could be on any one of a number of threads this but the fentanyl crisis, referring to Vancouver particularly. Just heartbreaking to see and the scale of the problem is truly astonishing. Don’t want to get too politically drawn but BC has recently decriminalised the use of hard drugs and the...

Blimey, good memories of that. Used to get discounted tickets as a Cherry Hinton resident but stil cost a fair whack iirc. Was able to open the windows and listen for free on a warm evening too. Some good artists played there over the years.

They won’t be paying any tax. The ‘business’ will submit returns showing a nominal profit with any ‘profit’ itself being within non-taxable threshold’s. There’s absolutely no need to be paying any tax at all, you just push ‘revenue’ through each business to its cost-covering non-taxable limit...

You can choose any one of a number of theories - tax evasion, money laundering, people trafficking, illegal immigration etc etc. Depends how ‘Farage’ you want to go really. That said, if anyone thinks the books and submissions to HMRC bear any resemblance to reality they need their bumps feeling.

Probably not on the curriculum but a bit on tax evasion and why certain groups are vehemently against the digital transition masquerading under the ‘cash is king’ mantra might not be a bad idea. I had a business that saw all sides of this and ultimately the temptation is there and it boils...

It’s ALL about evading tax. Let’s just say it’s much less risky if you take card/online payments AS WELL as cash. By offering both you’re putting enough through the books so as not to raise suspicion - i.e. your business is functioning legitimately, your turnover covers your costs and your...

Getting on the ship tomorrow, adults only. Adults only holidays are a really big thing now

Try to avoid airports during term time generally but bloody hell, I guess the schools have broken up. Gatwick departure lounge is like a hyperactive kids club. What a racket. I reckon it’s one of those things that when you’ve done your shift and moved on other people’s kids just become a pain...

That’s terrible news to have to digest suddenly. Must be very difficult to not let your minds run away with you but one step at a time. You’ll be on a rollercoaster of emotions so as Kenny says be sure to use the forum as you wish, whatever helps. Thinking of you both.

Pretty pissed off after that. Not having the Southgate defence of 2 finals and a semi being better than we’d done since the year dot. From ‘66 onwards England were fucking useless playing Jurassic football with the rest of the world laughing at us. We were pissing in the wind until the advent...

In the winter I’m always wearing my Wolves hat and regularly get stopped by someone who notices it and fancies a blether. Often not necessarily a football fan themselves but they might have family from Wolverhampton or have a family member who goes to matches and just like to make the...
