Not sure I agree with you entirely on this mate, as I'm sure you're aware, but that is a well argued case. I think my primary concern is what you see now with Starmer and Reeves, is what you get later. I don't sense any accommodation with even centre-left policies under those two. I sincerely...

The average voter doesn't seem very happy with what the Tories are doing to the country and public services. They don't seem too fussed about either tuppence off NI or a decrease in CGT. It seems that in fact it's the cost of living and the running down of public services that matter. 2p off...

It's a bit like the Gaza ceasefire thing mate, from where I sit anyway. It might be political trickery, but there's no denying it exposes their true position.

Reeves is odious. Channels all of the worst elements of Thatcherism, in speech, dress, and seemingly and more significantly, beliefs. Labour would do well to keep her out of the limelight, or it will become obvious what the party has turned into.

I'd not heard of the Bullseye serial killer before. Blimey, the things you learnt on here... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Cooper_(serial_killer)

If you think that's bad, don't turn over and watch Rachel Reeves on Peston. Tax going up on the lowest paid in this budget (because tax thresholds remain frozen) what will Labour do about that? Answer, vote it through unopposed. Proposed Capital Gains Tax cut, benefitting primarily people...

Think of it like this @wingy... Simms is 125% the name that Daka is, and Daka is only 80% the name that Simms is. So basically then, Simms is 45% better than Daka. Glad I could clear it up for you. 😂

Hey! I resemble that remark. 😄

Slight aside... is it just me, or has Simms slimmed down a bit? For clarity I'm not saying he was ever overweight, but watching on the telly the other night I thought he looked a bit lighter. Probably it's just the horizontal hold on the TV is broken...

If my career could be over in an instant, then I'm pretty sure I'd take the money when I got a chance. I know where you're coming from, but from a financial point of view the gamble has already paid off.

You're never more than a few miles from a canal if you're in the Midlands, HH. It's just sticking to the 4mph limit that's a bit tricky. 😁 Favourite Bullseye phrase, "Ooh, look what you could've won." Terrific telly though. Quality 80s outfits, barnets, and moustaches. Some genuinely tough...

Indeed, though if I spotted him on my flight I might hop off and wait for the next one. 😄

Yeah, that's a very fair point. It does feel like we're missing a bit of physicality in the team though. I thought Thomas might be the answer to that, but I'm not quite so sure now...

As above, trivial point but cope isn't a noun. Unless you're street. Bruv. 😁

In fairness, they're intensely libertarian when it comes to them and their rich donors. It's just the rest of us that they like to keep in order.

Easy to overreact, but it just feels like Simms is so hot and cold it's ridiculous. It doesn't help that he still doesn't seem to have any kind of partnership with Wright. It's obviously unfair to put it all on one player, no one really covered themselves in glory, but boy it's frustrating...

Just not enough spark (or spite) in the side at the moment. I know we can play beautiful football, but we need to start getting a foot in and rattling them a bit too. Tempo is also far too low, West Brom are cruising this...

I'm all for free speech, but anyone who claims election interference needs to suffer some sort of legal consequence if they're shown to be just making it up. This is a dangerous road to go down, and like Trump, will be used to justify all kinds of horrendous statements and behaviour.

No doubt Galloway's an unpleasant arsehole, but if we're serious about influencing Israeli government policy, an economic, academic, and sporting boycott is probably the only lever available to us. Criticism of the Israeli state should not be allowed to be conflated with anti-Semitism, and nor...

A braver politician might see that and go for it, but Sunak is a coward to his very core. Like Johnson, and I suspect many in the Tory party, Sunak has no real beliefs behind his politics, it's just a vehicle for his own personal quest for power and glory. (What worries me is the thought that...
