I know that housing is a long term problem with no instant solutions but the period you quote covers a Labour government from 1997 to 2010 so blaming the Conservatives is not appropriate. In my opinion the problem is almost entirely due to the unsustainable increase in the population caused by uncontrolled immigration.

...and there's another thing. Student debts are by no means compulsory, and in what way do they enrich the elderly? ...the housing crisis is a result of all the extra millions in the country. In what way does that enrich the elderly? I cannot deny something which is neither true nor does not exist.

There has been no transfer of wealth. Where do you imagine this supposed wealth has come from? Has somebody been stealing their bank accounts? Do you really think that tax rates today are higher than they were a generation or two ago? 30 years ago the young didn't even exist and 20 years ago they were only 10 years old. To even begin to think that the old are stealing from the young is absolutely ridiculous. All the capital infrastructure that the young are using was provided by the old.

How do you work that out? Screwing them by not giving them enough of fellow citizens' money?

Pah! Christmas ruins football.

This says that they run all year round: http://www.redfunnel.co.uk/ferry-travel/passenger-vehicle-ferry-service/ But it might be a bit of a rush for the last boat back last year the last boat left at 18:00 http://www.redfunnel.co.uk/library/pdfs/timetables/vehicle-ferry-timetables/2014/j00006_xmas_2014_vehicle_ferry_tt_final.pdf

Don't forget that MPs have parliamentary privilege.

Much more fun than watching England.

In the UK these are much more of a public holiday than they are over there. Christmas Day in particular is sacrosanct nowadays. Ever since New Year's Day became a Bank Holiday in 1973 Britain has become a dead zone over the end of December with many companies shutting down completely from a few days before Christmas until well into the New Year. It's a bit like Chinese New Year in China but without all the fun. The railway track maintenance companies take the opportunity to do extended works with bus replacement services in many places. http://www.express.co.uk/comment/expresscomment/548793/Boxing-day-travel-chaos-Rail-companies-shut-down http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-509192/Trains-set-run-Christmas-Day-Boxing-Day-time-1960s.html

...and another brilliant header from Davis. I always felt that once he scored his next goal he'd go on a run

It should be ok; I shan't be going.

Incredible header there from Magennis.

He can always blame the flops on his predecessor. At least they won't be Klopp's flops.

Has he learnt to sing yet?

Davo has just done very well!

Thanks for these. I see that Gazza spilled a couple of shots, perhaps he needs more practics.

And I agree with Mr Ben.

Not to be opened until Christmas. Engineering works are bound to have an effect on an services that do try to run.

Yes indeed, I was thinking of the Arsenal game. http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/service_disruptions/84237.aspx http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/106437.aspx

Don't believe everything you read in the press.

There have been no trains on Boxing Day since the early 1960s so that's the problem solved

That's annoying. No drinking for me on Boxing Day then. (and I do mean the day after Christmas)

Do I get a refund for my season tickets and would they please tell me now which games were going to lose in case I can find something better to do please?
