How can he do that when he’s playing about on a beach?

I think he may have used both hands.

He’s turned the club that we all love into an object of pity. Or disdain. Or laughter. Or all of them.

The Starmer Years - Can The New Broom Sweep Clean?
Whitey Grandad replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
Everybody should be exempt from Inheritance Tax. Inheritance Tax is inherently different from taxes on generated income or revenue. The assets that it steals are not readily replaceable. If as a nation state you carve a big lump out of a farm, or a business or any other enterprise then that operation becomes no longer viable. I have an issue with the size of the burden. Every tax, that is. Not everybody benefits from public services yet most pay for them. And in no way could farmers be described as having the ‘broadest shoulders’. Besides, why shouldn’t everybody pay the same rate of tax? -

Er… no In general Inheritance Tax will be paid by selling readily convertible assets such as property. Not by selling the tools of the trade such as tractors. You are correct in saying that this new act of grave robbing will affect family businesses too. -

It’s not £3m though is it. Inheritance Tax has to be paid in £ notes and not in muddy furrows. -
That’s one way of describing a marriage betrothal.

She knew the value that could be got out of an old ruin 😊 She sadly passed away in October last year but she’s still with me in many respects.

Yeah, it’s always someone else’s fault.

He’s got his spreadsheets upside down.

But as long as you’ve got possession nothing else matters.

Would you buy a used car from him? Either of them?

My wife liked property development programmes and whenever we passed a derelict ruin we would always comment “development opportunity”

Should Dragan Šolak remove Rasmus Ankersen from the SFC board?
Whitey Grandad replied to Dark Munster's topic in The Saints
That’s rubbish. Some people never learn and are condemned to repeat the same mistakes over and over again. -
If it could be it would have been. You can’t make people buy your products.

What makes you think that? There was a reason that cheese was being imported.

Whitey Grandad replied to Dark Munster's topic in The Saints
If the club think everything’s fine and they were to follow Ankersen’s teachings then they’d get rid of him. -
It will take him most of this season to adjust to the different standards of physicality in the Premier League.

It just shows that some dogs are racist.

I though that was normal in some parts of the country.

Yes, yes, but people still remember this noble stand against the modern world.

Does there? The only way is to develop slowly and steadily within our own capabilities. what some might call Post Neo-classical Endogenous Growth.
