As I mentioned in my other post ‘Removing the cap benefits 1.6m kids, 330k of which are said to be in living in poverty because of it. This costs 3.5bn per year (17bn over Parliament). I’m saying I’d personally rather have all that money directly spent on the 1m kids that live in destitution’...

As I was saying though, if reducing child poverty is what people want, removing the two cap limit is a poor and inefficient way to do it. If there’s other reasoning to remove it then that’s different but that’s not been the main argument

My point is if the reason/argument for removing the cap is to help kids living in poverty there’s probably far more efficient and effective ways of doing that Removing the cap benefits 1.6m kids, 330k of which are said to be in living in poverty because of it. This costs 3.5bn per year (17bn...

Exactly. I doubt anyone wants to see any child living in poverty, however, child poverty and benefits relating to it is a far more complex issue than this one policy. I don’t know for example whether the cost incurred in removing the cap would help more kids in need than say using that money in...

Never gets old

Tricky wank

As equally good with cash by the sounds of it

And people wonder why the BBC is fucked 🤷‍♂️

The problem will be without some independent assessment such as the OBR the markets will increase the cost of borrowing. Rightly or wrongly it’s for the government to put their case to the OBR how they believe any policy choices will help improve the economy, growth etc and/or indicate they have...

I said at the time that people should be concerned about the power of the markets/OBR etc (even though I thought truss was crazy). People ignored it at the time because it didn’t fit with their ideology 🤷‍♂️. I do think people jumping up and down three weeks into a new government before a...

Thats what Liz Truss said 😊

Yeah, agree. They didn’t need to make those tax commitments. I expect we will all be taxed more in any event though

Give him a chance shmmeee, only played a dozen or so games. We don’t need to look back too far to see plenty of incorrect opinions on players after that number of games last season

Theres going to be a lot of calls on cash. They desperately need growth to continue to improve and BoE rates to be cut asap to give them some wriggle room

Without wanting to split hairs he played his last game 3 Dec. Probably had to do a mini pre season to get back up to fitness again for us. Didn’t look quite fit for a lot of the end of season

Not sure where the depth of feelings from. For all the noise even a majority of Labour voters support the policy

Think he signed a new deal before going to Blues on loan and would imagine he’d want even more to drop down to L1 with them. Won’t come cheap

You’d hope that she’d be in a position to at least call him out on any BS. Biden was just nowhere near sharp enough to do it I wonder if Trump will even agree to a debate though

No, It’s great that GDP has been higher in the short term and that unemployment has remained low. It’s just the potential ‘cost’ of this My point has always been that if you have to print more to achieve this, it debases the currency and can cause inflation. Ultimately this costs everyone and...
