    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Also can't read it but listened to the detail on radio. It's what I and others have been telling them for four years, global trading will leave us worse off since we can't compete. Australia can produce beef and ship it to us far cheaper than we can for ourselves here. Open the doors with...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I was posting about what has been happening from the outset. Your proposal is for the future with most vaccinated and I dont agree with it since it makes the same mistake all over again. Getting the public's back up instead of seeking their co-operation. All it would do is provoke even more...

    And don't forget tier 4 that so many of us reached. As I've said many times before, the whole way they've handled it has been far too complex. It just confused people, leaving them not really knowing what they were supposed to do. They should have kept it simple, just the advice on avoiding...

    Sickening indeed. Their cop out of course is that the greatly increased premium is for Covid cover in the coming year, showing that it wasn't a covered item previously. I have absolutely no belief in insurance due to the despicable conduct of most insurance companies. Therefore from my...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    One does have to be patient until the public finally get sick of the self seeking latter. It does happen eventually as in 1945. All the rampant cynicism with politics we see today will ultimately lead us to a better place as the answer dawns. .

    A good political party does the overall right thing for the country and its people. A bad political party does what gets it the most votes, regardless of right or wrong. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It's immensely complex and dependent on the amounts given, if the giver expires within seven years and exactly who the gifts are to. There are also exempted amounts, you can give £3000 in any one year with exemption from IHT. You can also give as many individual amounts of up to £250 that you...

    So you repeat these untruths. Not winter, it was March 19th and it was this post. Read it again and this time try to understand it. Also please note that there was no Edit made, something you accuse me of doing. If I had it would be shown as Edited and edits can only be made within 24 hours of...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    No. It was people believing all the lies and smears about Corbyn and Labour that won it for the Tories. That was why there was such a dramatic difference between Labour's 2017 and 2019 GE results. They got close in 2017, close enougn to scare the Tories, so the latter turned the smear...

    I'd really like to Budsy, but you still distort what I've posted. Examples: I don't realise NOW that Scotland could go it alone. I've long believed it, since probably before you were born. And you've once again posted a Disagree to my denial that I've ever posted that I was a cop, thus...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I'm forgetting nothing but ignoring much since change has to happen and will happen. People like to think change they don't like the sound of won't happen, but a look back shows that it does to much greater degrees than is remembered. As an adult of 30 some 55 years ago, so far from even a...

    An item from a couple of weeks ago stated that some 900 people a day travel between India and Britain. Of course it's long established custom, the Romany gypsies are of course from India originally, but they walked taking a little longer. .

    That's not at all what I meant, reducing consumption doesn't imply going backwards. For example it could imply all that you list but lasting twice as long. As I posted, this needs thinking well outside the present box, not staying confined to it and getting nowhere, As said, not what I...

    It is a common denominator for state welfare, but set a little higher. It does work on a larger scale in countries with much higher benefit levels than ours. And historically it has always universally worked to a large degree. From when we first arrived on this planet we didn't have work or...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It doesn't work because of the current way of doing things with heavy handed enforcement, people dont like to be ordered about. A system which automatically pays all enough for a basic life will work since almost all people like and want more than that and get bored with doing nothing. Those...

    We aren't ganging up on one person, we are ganging up against your appalling behaviour and foul mouth. When you posted this to me you should have been instantly banned: I notice you edited out the last seven words later, so even you knew you were going much too far, but you still need to...
