    Jesus Christ, if you think they are far right I think you need to open a history book, or look at US politics

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    What are you on about? The political spectrum is exactly that - a theoretical relative spectrum so obviously shifts. Most would probably agree though that the Conservative Party that just got booted out was centre right - what do you disagree with about that? The relativity is important...

    Yes but about 50% of funding for mortgages still comes from consumer deposits The point they were making was that any takings from higher rates is at least partially offset from payouts on higher interest rates on savings & CDs etc

    I don’t think it’s accurate to say your mortgage payments are going up due to the madness of the last few governments. In reality we’ve both been spoilt with abnormally low interest rates for many many years, and we’ve also experienced once in a lifetime external shocks. Also not really true...

    Yeh - I work remote and I have watched TV before. I’ve also worked fully in the office and scrolled TikTok while having a poo?

    “Immigration at this level is unsustainable and needs to change” “Why is that?” “Well you tell me why it’s a good thing”

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Obviously you and I disagree on many things but at least you can construct and articulate an argument and recognise where something is underpinned by economic reasons or cultural considerations. I’m sure you know but I wasn’t for a second questioning that there are zero reasons why high levels...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    What are you 5 years old? 🤣 I havent even said whether I agree or disagree with you, I’m just trying to understand your point of view but it seems like you don’t have one? Migration and immigration happens. It’s a thing. If you’re voting for change because you are unhappy with the current...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    This is embarrassing. You are so furious about immigration and it’s the reason that you say reform will continue to gain support and get you cannot give me one single reason why the current levels of immigration is a bad thing and unsustainable. I’ve not even said I disagree with you but how...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Actually yes I do and I’m happy to engage in a discussion on that if you’d please answer my question? There are plenty of people on here who I disagree with but they are at least able to formulate and express an opinion. why are you literally not able to give me a response?
