So how much land will Russia be giving Ukraine then? As reparations for an illegal invasion.

You can pay as many taxes in the UK as you like, it won’t stop global warming. You are right about the elite, it really is one rule for one and another for the plebs. Starmer is showing such leadership to the UK with all his jetting around. Doesn’t he know that wfh and Teams/ Zoom are more...

I think it is the inference that such funds will be directed to government pet projects. This wont be a case in point, but imagine if the investment had been in to that bottomless pit called HS2?

TBH, it's the concept of calling what Ukraine are having to do as mere "retaliation". They are literally fighting for their lives but with one hand tied behind their backs. I totally agree with your comment about Russia's mastery of irony though. The have been using weapons sourced from...

That would have been a very Tory way of going about things though.

Did you mean OBR, not ONS?

Snowflakes closing schools.

I’m sure your wish will be granted.

I watched Strike: An Uncivil War on Prime recently. There definitely should be a public enquiry about Orgreave. Trouble is that most of the establishment protagonists will be beyond punishment by now.

When it was Lanchester Poly?

Didn’t they used to call things like that HNCs? Doing a job with day/ evening or block release course. Second paragraph sounds a bit like the old high school/ secondary modern schools. I think they often did more practical subjects - bricklaying, metalwork etc.

I read that as Caramel Evans to start with. Explains a lot, I thought.

Wishful thinking perhaps!

I just didn’t trust Chancellors who piss about with personal pensions. Brown devastated the private defined pension with a tax raid. What’s this money going to be invested in and who is going to underwrite it if it goes pear shaped?
