  1. Bankers already lose half their bonuses in tax. I repeat, there's nowhere near enough money in London's bankers to pay for the government's profligacy for more than a few months. What do we do when we've taken all their money?
  2. So why didn't the Liberals introduce it when they used to be in power?
  3. If the Liberals are in favour then I'm definitely voting against. That lot have never come up with any sensible ideas. Apart from that, I want to know who I'm voting for.
  4. There's a great big world out there with plenty of places that would welcome them. Just remember that taxation is legalised robbery.
  5. Don't kid yourself. There's nowhere near enough money amongst them to pay for what has been spent, and if you did raise taxes for them then they would just go somewhere else. The only way to raise large sums of money is from the working masses. There is an 'optimum' tax rate beyond which the returns start diminishing.
  6. Indeed, what was his record for us?
  7. I'm afraid customer satisfaction with the public services is no longer relevant. We can't afford them as things stand so they will have to change. End of story.
  8. It is far, far cheaper to have a monarchy than a president. I agree about all the hangers-on, though, we don't need to pay for them.
  9. He didn't miss, it was saved.
  10. Has anybody contacted the RSPCG?
  11. That would explain a few things. Do any of the offspring play for England?
  12. How about Jason Dodd's record? I always liked his penalties.
  13. Apologies for any duplicates. Terry Butcher Gordon Banks Chris Waddle Ron Flowers Nicky Butt Markus Babbel Roger Hunt Gareth Bale Kevin Bond And of course.... Bobby Stokes
  14. I think last season was very tough. Wasn't it the highest points total for the fourth team in the playoffs?
  15. My (later) wife and I visited Amsterdam in 1969 and had a great time. We went on the Amstel Brewery tour which I can strongly recommend. One young Swedish lad there, who was obviously an old hand at this sort of thing, reckoned that the Heineken tour was better, but that was over 40 years ago. We didn't sober up until later in the afternoon at the zoo. I have absolutely no idea how we got there. http://madeinatlantis.com/amsterdam/brewery_amsterdam.htm Times have changed.... we went by train from Enfield Town to Amsterdam Central via Hook of Holland. My dad got me a free pass but my wife's ticket was just over £9 return.
  16. Makes yer proud to be a Saint.
  17. I'd laugh if it weren't so sad. Well, I laughed anyway.
  18. Spots could be anything but the bleeding is a concern. Don't hang around, get him straight down to the Quack and don't let him be fobbed off.
  19. Our games in hand are against Charlton so does that make them 12-pointers?
  20. They normally jump over land, not water. The chef in our local lives next to the bridge and he has seen loads of them.
  21. What do you call 'playing well' if it's not winning?
  22. Don't underestimate Bournemouth. They beat Brighton a couple of weeks ago.
  23. It's also obvious that Fonte never heard anything.
  24. I miss his avatar for which I shall be eternally grateful. I share your concerns.
