They're fair and sensible and exactly the kind of thing I'd want to see and that could make me consider which way I turn at the ballot. Appreciate it's all they can do at this time, but I'd still like to see the reality rather than an easy soundbyte whereby it's part of a fully costed manifesto and what the trade-offs are to achivee. Only then can we really make an informed decision, until then it's the public equivalent of posting on here for likes.Have to say Labour have played this quite well so far in my view. Now we're back to a government that focusses on policies (however mental!) they now put their's up in retaliation.
And they can't help but look normal in comparison!
Nah, legalize, regulate and tax it.Decriminalisation of the user is where it should head rather than legalisation of the drug. The resource should be into the disbanding of all of the drug networks and crimewave that it funds. Making it accessible will not eradicate the issues that co-exist.
And what do you think they'll do for cash? All say, fair enough we've had a good run and let's go and get a job and be upstanding members of the community or move onto other crime and push other people to more dangerous exploits so that those higher up the tree still get their filthy piece of the pie?Nah, legalize, regulate and tax it.
Gets the cash out of criminal hands, stops funds being spent on policing and brings money into the treasury all at once.
Reading courses not working out, huh?
Miss you in the Ukraine thread BTW, your boy Putin is taking one hell of a beating. The ultimate fate of your chosen strong man leadership style.
The leader of the PD declared they’d already lost a couple of weeks ago, I know a few people who didn’t bother after he’d said that. They also refused to enter a coalition with the 5 Star and then dithered about doing so before again confirming they wouldn’t do - if they had done they’d be in power now probably.Just out of interest why were they so incompetent? Policy offer or something more?

Politics is very different in Italy to the UK though because of the coalitions, there were several governments between the last election and this one.
Genuine question.That’s alright I’m missing you on the council threads when you conveniently hop off when The Great Leader Lucas gets it in spades. You defended for a bit before doing a predictable hasty retreat
I’m glad the war is over - I must have missed it - at least now we don’t have to waste another £2.5 billion on arming Mr Zelensky though I’m sure he’s a bit sad as he’s probably got another Vogue shoot lined up looking all serious and concerned to fund his Cayman Island account a bit more
was only 28k but i guess that was 5 x my salary - still seemed a lot each monthOn what size loan?
The vast majority of people that get involved in the drug trade start off small time and work their way up.And what do you think they'll do for cash?

My concern is a bit like 2008. The problem then wasn't the banks as such - they were a problem, but not insurmountable. The problem was everyone queuing up to take their money out exacerbated the issues already at hand.
tbf, not costing things hasn't stopped the present government from carrying out their promises...They're fair and sensible and exactly the kind of thing I'd want to see and that could make me consider which way I turn at the ballot.

So only one party in Italy is nationalistic? Guess they will not be forming a government then as all the other parties will oppose them? Are you saying League and Forza are non nationalistic parties?
And the mask slips again.
And a subsidised bar at the Wheatsheaf?Nationalise Greggs and I think that’s the set.
Im not sure what mask you refer to.
Anyway why don’t you complain to PayPal and her then to suspend my account with them. I’m sure they will oblige
Leftist plot. Oh the joys of being in a cult, regardless of reality you can convince yourself it’s everyone else’s fault

I’m against someone burgling someone’s house in Shetland and then burning it down . Whatever sympathy I have I wouldn’t be paying to build the house again

But this isn't about the present government. This about what's going to make me vote Labour. I've already said I'm open to that if they can set out how to build it properly. The answer to every question can't be, yeah but this lot are awful. The problem with most is being so nailed to colours that you'd think it were your football team. If the Conservatives listed everything Labour are being cheered for and Labour offered to deliver what was in last weeks budget, the responses would be poles apart. I think so many would vote one way or the other regardless of policy.tbf, not costing things hasn't stopped the present government from carrying out their promises...
I normal circumstances, maybe not, but this lot are so awful it probably can!The answer to every question can't be, yeah but this lot are awful.
I remember in the ERM when interest rates were escalating every hour getting to 16% in the end
This is tame. It will stabilise soon enough
How does the pound vs dollar impact you owesimslky
Wait till the public sector cuts come in November to compensate...This isn't tame at all. People have a lot less disposable income now than the ERM days. Wages are stagnant and everything is being ravaged by inflation. A lot of people are going to have a tortuous winter.
Tame, my arse.
Wait till the public sector cuts come in November to compensate...

Oil for a start is traded in dollars. The weaker the pound the more expensive our fuel will be.
