Only disappointment is Obafemi didn’t do an Adebayor style celebration after running length of pitch

Relegation rivals as well. Sweet

OBafemi superb

I assume their martyrs are the murderous Hamas cunts?

What you get when you purge alternative viewpoint and alienate the sensible. Tories are complete mess with gaping lack of talent. Can’t think of anyone who could be described as an elder or heavyweight who can impart their wisdom. Just full of vacuous lightweights who will be trotting out Reform type lines. Whilst there won’t be much love for Labour it is damning on our politics that the alternative will have so little appeal.

Not sure if true but funny if it is on Newsagents podcast said that Trump’s garbage truck stunt has largely backfired as many Puerto Rican community seeing it as Trump doubling down on the Puerto Rico ‘joke’ as many hadn’t heard of Biden’s subsequent comment

So 18% of Brits want Trump to win. Saintweb poll similarish numbers in 2020. Who are these 22 cunts?

Any reason for such detailed research?

I could tell a story about micropenises as well. A friend obviously

Caught a bit of Politics Live today and had some no mark Tory with whingy nasally voice declaring we could cut taxes with no impact to public services…..wait for it……by introducing efficiencies. Wow after all this time no one has thought of this. Honestly these fuckers need to wake up and all coming from his point of view that the public need honesty from politicians. Basically no different to Truss. although also had a guy from ConservativeHome on and he was actually speaking sense.

No one knows but God himself but even he must be having doubts about his chosen one, Trump. As to why see Benji’s last sentence in above post

Can anyone on here honestly say they haven’t taken a woman home only to find they had a pair of bollocks? Just me then? Thailand is a beautiful country btw

You’d almost think it a spoof but no. Labour are such idiots at times. “Labour sources said the WhatsApp group for Labour MPs of colour contained some furious messages from those who believe the party is not doing enough to represent black, Asian and other minority ethnic groups at the top of government.” Bet that WhatsApp group is a barrel of laughs

I’d need a table and some beans. Basically increasing tax on a service (that does not make a profit) and to use those additional tax revenues to fund said service doesn’t make too much sense.

It’s a Labour government. People want public services funded. The line repeated ad nauseam that if businesses pay more everyone suffers. Let’s see, but you are basically coming with arguments promoted by a party that were annihilated at last election. see Hypo’s hyperbole about CGT, Duckhunter on rent caps, VAT on private schools, abolishing non doms etc All policies that have arguments to help the wealthy. Absolutely no tax is popular and each has a credible counter argument as to why it should be lower. FWIW I am not hugely keen on the NI measures introduced and understand your concerns but clearly whatever they did would have the press and Tories wailing.

I love the premise is that if businesses have to pay more tax they inevitably contract and there is no growth. Labour were so cautious about tax rises and boxed themselves in. The NI bribe/cuts from Truss and Hunt were clearly not truly affordable but didn’t have the balls in Hunts case to resist calls for tax cuts. Truss was clearly just insane from the start, money supply is money supply though but when it is comes to business we are all lead to believe their margins are so small, many will go t9 the wall well if a small increase in NI tips you over then your business model isn’t hugely viable . Anyway as with all budgets we will have to wait and see its success or failure but the constant need for endless analysis and then presenting predictions as fact is comical. Economies are complex beasts despite being shown as simple.

Bookies recently made Trump massive favourite but now gone back to being much closer but he still is shorter price. And for those that deride the odds they are normally best indicator as using same data financial markets would use although of course reflect where the bets are going and was substantial money for Trump in last few weeks.

All I can say is better than the other fucker but she looks incredibly limited so far lacking the charisma and skills required for leadership.

At the risk of patronising the voters very few understand the economy. US is very strong but many don’t see it. Inflation was inevitable after all the global Covid injections into the economy and cyclical as if there was a way of nailing it we would surely have discovered it by now. But yeah Biden brought it all on in their eyes. Trump is seen as stronger on the economy but many cheering tariffs have no real understanding of what it will mean for their economy. Unfortunately we’re a global village however much people wish for a return to the 1950s If Trump does win think there will be a lot of anger in the Democrats towards Biden for not stepping down earlier to allow a stronger candidate.

Yeah first 3 months will fully dictate how 5 years goes. Although NI ncreases are definitely going to impact operating costs of plenty of areas that can ill afford it eg Local Govt https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c629zw75x58o

I get how many could be undecided by Harris but no idea who would not have made up their mind about Trump by now.

Racists making excuses for racists lol

Can’t believe the news channels aren’t leading with the catastrophic market performance of Stirling and the FTSE since the budget. Come on let’s wheel out Ed Conway
