I had to do a quick double-take on that headline... "Wig Hunt" read completely differently at first glance...

Scenes from the handover operation just in...

Please tell me we've bought a zoo of some kind... 🐒🐓

Our daughter went to a local private school and my son to the local comprehensive. The private school just happened to be my daughter's preference, not because it was a private school per se (I would say both schools were on a par in terms of quality of teaching, so we weren't doing it to gain some kind of advantage). Whilst we had a relatively decent income I wouldn't describe us as "wealthy" or "rich". We certainly had to make compromises to be able to afford it, and we just about managed it. Anecdotally, having got to know the circumstances of most of the parents in her year during the 5 years she was there, I would say under 20% of the parents could be classed as wealthy / rich (I guess that depends on your definition). Obviously that's a relatively small sample, so might be an outlier admittedly, but who's to say that demographic wasn't mirrored at other private schools across the country? But do continue to scoff and sneer at others' points of view if it makes you feel intellectually superior though...

Aye...

If every like minded person paid extra it would, wouldn't it?

Nothing stopping you paying additional tax to the treasury any time you like... Don't need to wait for a government to make you do it...

Over to you @Saint Garrett... 😁

Yep, pretty sure that's what Still will start with 👍🏻

This one not your doing then...? 😁

If you're saying you'd have to be stupid to vote for someone because of being mocked on social media, then maybe the answer is in your question...

Sometimes it's difficult to work out who's most 'thick'... The actual thick people or the people that continuously mock the thick people...

Cheers. I seem to recall Manning playing well for us before in midfield, on the odd occasions that he did so. Maybe that's his most natural/ effective position...?

I know people disagree with my theory on this, but I would blame those that sneer at those that vote for these kind of parties. I'm yet to be convinced that such overt moral superiority doesn't bolster the support of the 'thick' peoples' party(s) and/or causes (e.g. Brexit)...

According to my Sky Sports app, Manning was playing left midfield for Ireland. Is that accurate? (I didn't watch the game)

I don't like to play the contrarian (not least to avoid stealing Lighthouse's thunder) but I don't recall a collective sense of 'excitement' when Manning was signed...? (Apologies though if my memory is playing up again) Regardless, good to see him in a good run of form. A sure fire starter for the PCFC game I'd have thought.

Cheers... Just wish I'd gone for the 'Pompey fan shagging his sister' analogy instead though...

Isn't the 'measure' of a discretion more about expectation vs reality though? It's almost expected of the 'nasty' Tories that they'll do dodgy stuff, ergo it's not very surprising when it happens. Conversely, the more 'moral' Labourites are perhaps considered a paragon of virtue, ergo when they transgress it's obviously going to feel worse than when the Tories do/did the same. It's a bit like comparing a scouser shoplifting Vs the Pope shoplifting... Same crime but the Pope is obviously going to attract more flak... (Other dubious analogies are available) In other words, Labour supporters should treat any 'over reaction' as a compliment, as it's merely a reflection of the superior morals that they espouse

Weren't MSD Holdings in the takeover frame at some point? (The investment company we ended up getting a loan from) I have a vague memory of people getting excited at the time because of the link with Dell...

People with different viewpoints disagreeing with eachother. Whoda thought it? Always good entertainment for us born again fence-sitters though...
