  1. Desperate stuff. How’s the price of eggs? And please, can we have a link to the source?
  2. And where are the tax breaks, tax giveaways, tax free wealth accumulation and tax avoidance concentrated?
  3. The pieces are all falling into place while the existence of the files is once again confirmed.
  4. A friend once asked me for a lift to Don Muang airport to catch his flight to the UK. When I went to pick him up he came out of his house carrying a shark shaped parcel, as in it was a stuffed shark wrapped in parcel paper. WTF is that? I asked. It got worse, he was taking it home for a bloke he met, but hardly knew, who had been on holiday in Thailand. The sight of him walking into the airport with his shark shaped parcel will live with me till I die. I’m still laughing at the stupidity of it all 30 years later. I really should try getting in touch with him again. I wonder if he’s out yet?
  5. There is a lot of speculation that Ghislaine Maxwell is angling for a pardon, the Deputy AG meeting with Maxwell only adds to it. What do think, should Trump Pardon Ghislaine Maxwell?
  6. And there it is. The hatred of Jews amongst the rightwing white supremacists never went away, it’s who they are. But please don’t forget you’ve been told, ‘there good people on both sides’. Prior to that I was always told the only good Nazi is a dead Nazi.
  7. Hasan had balls of tungsten carbide steel and did a fantastic job of lifting the lid on White Supremacist hatred by getting his opponents to vomit their hate of their own volition. But hey who knew? Many of the arguments made by the people he challenged are mirrored by those frequently made by right-wingers in this forum. From an outright self confessed Nazi, through a dullard trying to justify hate with pseudo intellectual garbage to my favorite idiot, the self hating August Darnell impersonator who’s obviously suffering from Stockholm syndrome. Well worth a watch.
  8. We can clear up so much once we have the files. Regardless of Trump being in the files, the refusal to release them is protecting pedophiles.
  9. Margaret Thatcher A woman who financed her failed economic policies by selling off the national assets (AKA Other People’s Money).
  10. It’s just more evidence of your ability to believe utter nonsense.
  11. I don’t disagree, Trickle down economics has failed.
  12. So you are in receipt of SERPS or otherwise enhanced state pension. The State Pension is below the zero tax allowance.
  13. I don’t go in for such broad pejorative generalizations, that’s your thing.
  14. Go back and read the post I responded to and see if it sinks in which immigrants it was referring to. Here’s a clue, it’s not your triggered nonsense.
  15. There are other elephants in the pension room. For example tax relief on private pensions massively favour the wealthy. As does the 25% tax free lump sum.
  16. That’s what taxation does. There are three main problems with means testing the state pension: 1. The cost of administering the means testing, 2. The inevitable result of people who absolute should not be excluded missing out, example people with learning difficulties, people suffering cognitive impairment, people suffering mental health issues. 3. Means testing the state pension would dissuade people saving for private pensions, particularly low/middle earners who are unable to build substantial private pension savings. A universal state pension that provides for the base necessities is a far more civilized and cost effective solution.
  17. It’s a really dumb idea, so of course Badenoch and the Tories are already on it: “Asked whether this included the "triple lock" policy - under which state pension payments go up every year by the highest of inflation, average earnings or 2.5% - she replied: "That's exactly the sort of thing that the policy work we are going to be doing will look at". https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c62778jzggro.amp
  18. No UK pensioner is paying taxes on their state pension unless they have other additional income.
  19. The Director General of UNESCO is Audrey Azoulay, a French Jew.
  20. They are desperate to believe there exists a distraction from the actual issue that matters.
