  1. Not when someone says you don’t have to pay anything. If you have been paying £50 per every hundred and someone says it’s now £60, despite reasons for staying sometimes it goes too far. That’s what Labour has achieved
  2. Most of them have retained property and assets (beyond their personal) homes but have stopped or limited investment in the uk. Other than 2 mentioned the rest are significantly beyond the bracket you mentioned. They own significant stakes in companies or signicant assets in the uk.
  3. So if you have £100 and I ask for £60 of it and you won’t give it me then you are selfish? if I deserve a pay rise but won’t give it up to allow a lazy colleague to have a pay rise then I’m selfish. seriously?!!!! That’s one of the worst arguments I’ve ever heard
  4. Well you will have to accept I’m telling the truth. I don’t lie it’s bad form and certainly not to make a point on a forum. I could say the same about you saying you are a non exec director on boards. I believe you cause I think it would be sad to BS. it’s well publicised that the increase in capital gains and change in non dom status are meaning people are leaving. They are also anticipating future tax changes which will be coming over the next few years. Compare this to no income tax, paid schools and houses by companies if you move to other places why wouldn’t you. If I didn’t have family ties I would leave too. These people contribute significant amounts of tax but keep pushing and the connectivity of the world now means it’s easy to leave. Most of these people used to be positive about their own country but they don’t recognise it as much now
  5. You’re also missing the bigger point - whilst you may think they are selfish for leaving who will cover their tax burden because of crap economic policies - will you?
  6. Haha always the same. Proven right so the dial changes. Left wingers are hilarious. Why are they selfish - answer that? If they pay millions of pounds in tax already and cover their tax burden and the tax burden of many others why are they selfish? They will have contributed to the economy and the public purse multiple times over than 99.99% of the population and yet they are selfish
  7. So are you willing to accept that this isn’t just scaremongering?
  8. Interesting that your experience is different probably because of the sector you are in and that I am in. Appreciate the response rather than throwing spurious allegations - there is probably more common ground between people than we realise but social media and three word responses often mean that people aren’t willing to listen to each other which is a sad reflection of society
  9. Exactly - and it won’t come back for years even after the current Government get voted out.
  10. Ok we have a consortium of where most have left - one stayed in the uk. I have three friends who live in our town who have left with their families. One of my mates friends in his 20s and started a successful business and is selling to leave directly cause of labours policies and future anticipated policies. I have a friend who is also moving his family to France. This is really happening. I am experiencing it first hand. This isn’t right wing propaganda. These people are educated here have created business and are leaving. It destroys business networks and is a brain drain. Very difficult to repair
  11. That’s a fair response. There are other issues afoot but I think Labour haven’t made a real hash and made it so much worse for business than it needs to be
  12. Again revert to someone else that made mistakes. I never mentioned the tories - we are talking about labours performance. If you revert to the lowest common denominator each time you answer the question as to how bad Labour haven’t been
  13. I fully understand the Labour Party and politics at a local and national level. I deal with politic consultants on a daily basis. The understanding was that the party was moderate left but it’s transpiring it’s more to the left than it let on. Put it this way I actually thought about voting for them in this election (which probably shows I’m more considered than some others on here - political party colour doesn’t matter contents does)
  14. I agree but the thing you don’t do when things are bad is shot yourself in the foot multiple times
  15. Great response buddy. I suspect you have no idea about this. If your a net taker you wouldn’t leave the country as it’s an easy life
  16. Thats right Labour haven’t had a detrimental impact on business at all. The £20 billion alleged black hole (which I thought had been filled) is now £50 million due to public spending and being unable to control back benchers over welfare reform. Thats Boris Johnson’s fault too I assume or maybe Margaret thatcher instead?
  17. That’s right anyone with a view right of centre is a nutter. Again you’re a patronising left winger - you have no idea about my background and I haven’t ranted at all. TD Mickey doesn’t answer my queries. It’s all the same with left wingers all talk no substance. Stop harping back to the tories I haven’t mentioned them once. Imagine Juric continuing to say “but Russell Martin didn’t do a very good job”. Enjoy the next few years because that will be the end of the left for the foreseeable future in this country. Like much of Europe we are seeing the light and socialism will be dead for a good 30 years or so
  18. That’s right buddy i get most of my knowledge from Tik tok. Thats the left wing way - disparage and partonise those who disagree. Thing that I’ve found is when challenged most left wingers views have no foundation whatsoever as they don’t understand the real world of business and have never put their neck on the line run their own business or invested. What makes you superior in your understanding of government and economics?
  19. Always someone else’s fault that is the Labour motto. Most of my clients have moved to Dubai or others. Wealth creators, capital and those creating jobs have left and that has destroyed business networks. Never happened under the previous government. I agree they underperformed but nothing like the long term damage that Labour have created. If you think these lot have done anything but a terrible job I would question your judgement or understanding of capitalist markets. They have managed to do this all in one year. The thing with Labour is that they are socialist so they don’t understand or want to understand it
  20. Was a lot less taxing than watching the shambles of the next budget. Reeves and Starmer must have been watching Russell Martin last season with all the backwards moves they are making.
  21. I’d say Saints season last year was a better performance than Labours economic performance so far.

    This is incredibly sad - young kid with the world at his feet, just married and three kids. Bang then it’s gone. It certainly should put our day to day woes and quarrels into perspective. Life is precious and so is family. We are lucky.
  23. I agree - it’s clear that’s what it insinuates and it’s bias. If I was a white male coach I would think twice about applying. No need to say it
  24. I get the point - for clarity convince 2 players to stay and convince the remainder to leave!
