Surprised there is isn’t an obvious term for the thick UK equivalent of the MAGA lot. Angry gammons but also gullible pussies scared of everything. Society is producing very weak men

It was worse although due to colossal net worth it is irrelevant 😃

one of my biggest annoyances at the credit score is if you have say three credit cards, one is interest free and the two other are normal, if you do a balance transfer, so two cards have zero one has 5.1k on it with a 10k limit even thought the debt is the same and you're in a better postion due to zero interest for the period your score goes down as you're using over 50% of the available credit on one account. It doesn't make sense. Anyway with your net worth and credit score it doesn't impact you.

Thankfully, you are hard enough to make up for the rest of us.

It is a con - ClearScore, Experian are just selling services. I genuinely never look or open any email bait from them anymore. You can use credit card abroad for something oblivious it is going through as a cash transaction and you will be scored down with the reasoning you are short of cash and taking out at mental interest rates.

That makes me question his judgement from the off. 7 pints from that picture 

Has Burnham's jogging improved him from that score?

I don’t know - you do your cross fit stuff but don’t know if you have a glass jaw or not so could be in the reckoning

im too old and slow these days, i reckon i'd give 98% of the forum a run for their money in a power clean, burpee over bar and double under triplet workout but dont have the interest or desire to be angry with the world these days. I always thought @Raging Bull was a bit of reformed tough guy who found god, they are always the ones to watch, like Pulp Fiction characters. Of course MLG would bore everyone to death.

Some guy that used to post on here ages ago, long gone, no idea why he's been brought up, think his real name was Brett and he lived in Camden.

The navy chef called Jamie was Delldays, completely different person, he's not posted for even longer. Wonder what happened to him?

[The Kraken]

It’s a real mystery alright.

I had 960 odd score with my mortgage. When I paid it off it dropped to 500 odd when nothing else changed. I went from being good with money to being shit just by paying off my biggest debt! 

I don't pay any attention to it now.

I keep a tiny residential mortgage to avoid that. Payments are about a tenner a month, but if keeps my credit rating up. I also carry a small credit card debt (zero percent) for the same reason.

Wow, so he's got a whole number of logins. Why's he got so many?

Who has? They’re all separate people. One was on the navy, one lived in Camden and I don’t know who else you’re referring to

Think Batman got whacked by Steve Grant for moaning. And an alter ego Alex sprang to life soon after. We love him though really

I went back and watched it. Not quite the free hits as the article led me to think. Much as normal, with a few more personal barbs at the government.

Apparently, there were afters between Badenoch and Phillipson, as Bad3noch's "bitter class warrior" went down badly.

I'm not that bothered, if I need a loan, and let's face it, that's all these companies are in business for, I'll get it from my bank who I've been with for over 45 years.  They always offer the best rate.

She needed to make the most of the opportunity, because when she wakes up tomorrow the reality that she is still the leader of the Tories will hit, hard.

Starmer reminded her that Count Binface ran her candidate close. 🙂

[Lord Duckhunter]

And she reminded him they won Stephen Fylnns old seat with nearly 50% of the vote, compared to labour who got 5. Yet still he defended Milliband  and his lunatic agenda…

She did. But the Binface one was funnier.
