Ha!! Not on here mate! The brexiters that won't accept that it ain't gone well will tell you how great it is but give no examples of that greatness, and the various leavers only need to copy/paste one of their many posts from above. In the real world, I can't see either main political party sparking the debate, it'd take the mass media to do so.

What's done is done, and it hasn't gone well. I voted leave and rue the the day that I did. Naive doesn't come close. The issue now is how and when the serious discussion begins about rejoining.

I can't remember anything comparable to this. Buy a company at well over price, then decimate it. I'd love to see his business plan. Nuts.
-
What, in terms of actual policy/action, do you say should be done? It's too easy to say we need more, but that's just noise.

No post mortem has ever resurrected a corpse Weston. We're here for a variety of reasons. Brexit, covid and the associated waste/fraud/dodgy contracts, Ukraine/fuel cost fall out, quantitative easing, SD breaks driving up house prices, over borrowing, a weak pound leading to imported inflation, and some other stuff. Personally I'm not getting into a discussion as a) some people fixate on one of the elements (eg brexit), b) quite a few like a whinge about the situation but offer no view on what they think should be done, and c) ultimately, what's happened has happened and isn't reversible by the current government. Sure, lessons can (theoretically) be learnt to reduce the chances of future fuck ups, but Hunt did about all he could yesterday bar perhaps a wealth tax, a hit on the likes of Amazon, and a bigger levy on the fuel companies.

Sad to hear. There'll be many more casualties unfortunately.

You got lucky. In the 90's we were on a variable rate when the rates went mental, then slipped into massive negative equity, and had to live off barely a tenner a week for food and life. We got out of it, but it wasn't fun. Repossessions will soar unfortunately.
-
I suspect it'll be more. One time bomb is negative equity, and high reversionary interest rates, when people come to the end of their fixed rates. Very interesting times ahead.

I agree with him. It's obvious that he meant to see how they perform in something like a first team environment. We know how they perform for the B team, hence wanting to see how they get on in first team games when there's less on the line.

What is the best goal you've ever seen live at a Saints game?

He was something else. Had as much ability as any player I've seen play. Shame he was crocked. -
Condescending prick. Tell me what a debate on a football forum will achieve. We're here. It's a mess. In life and business, I live in solutions. Dwelling on problems that I can't solve achieves fuck all.
-
I'm just saying a debate about why we're here is futile. The solution changes the mess we're in, not the debate about why we're here. Different outlooks on life methinks - I prefer looking forwards.

That project is, and always was, a farce. Complete waste of money from the start. I'd imagine the costs of breaking contracts mean we're stuck with it. Expect the inevitable £25b + overspend.

Wasn't that a reserve game at the dell, possibly Pompey? Beat a man or two, jinked just into their half out wide, then put it over the keeper and in. Great goal whoever it was against. First team wise, the stand outs for me in modern ish times were Osvaldo Vs city and Boufal Vs WBA. Going back, any number of MLT goals, and I'd love to have been at the game for that Danny Wallace overhead kick, and that Channon goal. We've scored some crackers down the years. -
Understood. Brexit has been shit. Posh bread is too pricey. The two may be linked, but a discussion on here won't get you any solutions.
-
I cba with a debate as to why. We are. The discussion should be the way out of it. We can't borrow more. We can't spend much less. We can't tax much more, at least from the masses.
-
What did Reeves say that she'd have done differently? Seems to me that he was about as balanced as he could be given the shit we're in.

If the wages were sensible, yes.

It confirms that it's bollocks and that the people who make up the predicted expected goals got it wrong, like the people make up the expected goals, etc.
