  1. I might even go to that. Any idea of a date yet?
  2. Or his mother.
  3. Great! Now at least I can start to plan my holidays for that month
  4. A winner against Citeh and then off for £25m and I would wave him a friendly goodbye.
  5. Wrong thread. You should be over on the General Election one.
  6. Flippin' 'eck. I agree with Pap
  7. On another note, an old fugitive is joining that lot to the west: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32132811
  8. I spend too much time on here already. France
  9. I have neither the time nor the inclination to write an essay every time I post, and I know I don't have to spell out evrything for someone of your intellect and insight. Please give me an example of a comparable country (not Singapore or Brunei or such) that runs health system as large and complex as the NHS. This is what I wrote: If it were that amazing some other country would have done the same.
  10. It's called a 'no-claims bonus'.
  11. Yes, it will be interesting. Possibly you notify them and only get some money back if they manage to sell your seat. I have often maintained that they should hold an account for you with direct debit authority or such-like where you could buy cup or away tickets and have it come out of your account.
  12. I expressly did not say that 'everyone living in poverty is in that situation because they are lazy'.
  13. You know you're losing the argument when you resort to swearing Comparing like for like, on the same scale, that sort of thing... The NHS is one of the largest employers in the world. Discuss. There's an interesting debate here: http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1200247
  14. Who are these people? I don't have a job so it can't be me
  15. If it were that amazing some other country would have done the same.
  16. There's a name for this kind of false logic that I won't use today.
  17. Not with you on this one???
  18. Black Wednesday causing a recession. 'Dealing with a global banking crisis and sheltering us from the worst efects of it'. Yeah, right Austerity policy putting us back into recession. All these bits. You left out selling off the gold reserves at rock-bottom prices. You also ignored the fact that this is a coalition government, not a Tory one.
  19. Just as long as they starve by their own efforts and don't expect the rest of society to help them do it. Not necessarily. You might just believe that it is up to every indicual to do the best for themselves that they can without relyig on others to carry them through their indolence.
  20. Now I know that you've completely lost it. Labour was completely, entirely, absolutely at fault for leaving the country in the state it was. Who was it that banished boom and bust?
  21. It all depends on the figures, of course, but a modest cut in rates is a fixed amount whereas a cut in CT is an incentive to make more profit.
  22. Poor dividends means not attracting investment.
  23. Of course, but you have to pay the rates no matter how much you sell, and you get absolutely nothing in exchange for it.
  24. Oh them, I always ignore that sort of thing and make up my own mind.
  25. That really annoyed me. Give them around £1400 and they would charge you for not paying by cash. Any other business would invite you in, sit you on a comfy sofa and give you a cup of coffee, maybe even offer you some biscuits but this lot make you stand outside in the wind and rain
