Sir Ralph

The formation is a big problem. With three at the back it leaves us with a player less to press up top. It also leaves Fellows playing 20 yards too deep and means that Azaz (who I agree has been crap) gets more attention from the extra central midfielder they then have. He is a player that needs space and time to operate. I don’t understand the persistence with it and why we aren’t playing 4-2-3-1 As a side point I thought THB looked much more up for it tonight

So what’s your plan for saving the NHS in the long run? So far all government plans are to countinue blindly ploughing billions in - do you think that’s sustainable in the long run? What did reform actually say about insurance based health care by the way?

I actually edited that but socialist governments do increase state intervention by their very nature. I can explain that to you if you want but only after the below Don’t focus on that comment - please answer my key point. Again digressing from the point in hand. I’ve given you the answer that you can agree to or instead give me an alternative justification. It’s disappointing that nobody can explain it

You haven’t responded to the question as to why the government only wants to tax people and there has been no consideration to reducing spending. WHY? Don’t digress. You and none of your mates can answer this. let me answer it for you….they are scared and can’t reduce spending because there are too many socialist MPs who won’t allow them to. They would prefer to maintain the current level of government wastage in some quarters rather than being “unpopular” to those on the gravy train and propose a balanced budget. I also have evidence in the inability to cut welfare. Happy to be wrong but you need to explain why no spending cuts are being considered.

Yep question ignored well done. You continue to prove me right which I’m grateful for. Nothing, nada. Blind partisan support for the shitest government in my lifetime

Course it’s not. Nobody responded to my question of yesterday as to why the government hasn’t undertaken any spending cuts. You will do the same

We can’t press with that shit formation

The band of brothers will shit over anyone’s idea to reduce tax. Ask them why the government isn’t reviewing or hasn’t cut tax and they can’t answer. Don’t waste your time

The 5-3-1-1 doesn’t work we can’t press with it

Is this a dream?

Because one of you mentioned Trump. I said this hasn’t got anything to do with him. But the band of brothers is obsessed with him. The point is this guy is an inexperienced socialist. Nobody has given any credible reason why he is appropriate for this job. Just Trump blah blah

Do you know what the experience of mamdani is?

Pointless this isn’t about Trump it’s about the new mayor. You lot are obsessed

Life experience. Trump has much more of it than this guy.

I wouldn’t recommend getting into a discussion about socialism being more successful than capitalism, or even close to it Well he hasn’t done much so isn’t sufficiently experienced for this post. Don’t deflect the guys political views and experience isn’t relevant to Trump. Would you say you are a socialist?

Socialism often fails, particularly more extreme versions. There are many examples of this. Have you looked at this guys experience?

Sometimes good ideas on the face of it have consequences. NY is a pro business city until now. This sends the wrong message and I expect that, depending on the tax levels, businesses and the wealthy may move state. State built housing in recent times has often failed and you need to rely on the private sector to deliver it. I suspect the economic environment won’t be conducive to this (eg London now)

Ok I will watch some of them. His ideas seem great in principle and absolutely what people should aspire to but there is the real world scenarios. It seems that he is going to fund all his ideas through increased corporation tax and taxing the wealthy which I don’t buy. The housing stuff I’ve seen in other countries including “Sir” Sadiq in London who has made a huge balls up of it with less affordable housing as a result . I hope it works out but unfortunately I don’t think it will.

No I read about his policies and he’s a 34 year old socialist. He won’t deliver on what he wants.

Socialist loon. The N Yorkers think it’s cool now give it a year…..

Oh dear you then added the last para. after I replied. For a moment (the only moment so far in any of our interactions) I respected your balance. I didn’t ask for dossier on the points I disagreed with which was frankly ludicrous (unlike you) but I should have done in hindsight. My responses to a specific question are much more specific than your replies to more general questions.

I agree with some of this but disagree with other parts such as higher rate of tax, wealth tax and the single market would be subject to what deal we could strike (but agree in principle). I think there are government savings before those things I’ve mentioned above (or in addition) that should be considered. Notice I haven’t asked you full blown details or dossier on any of this just understood the principle of it because, like me, you don’t have full access to government figures in the first instance. You can if you want to but I’m respectfully pointing out that your stance is just as qualified as mine. The question posed to me was about cuts which is what I responded to. You’re overall view more balanced than I thought you were.

I just asked your mate anyway. Feel free or dodge it. Again easy to ask but to concede a position is always more difficult. So far I’ve replied to your questions, you haven’t liked my replies and then neither of you have responded to my questions just the “I’m not the government”. Don’t hide behind that give an opinion All you are doing is proving my point that there is no plan to reduce spending only an aspiration to increase taxes which was the point I made originally so thanks
