  1. I don’t go in for such broad pejorative generalizations, that’s your thing.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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
  6. No UK pensioner is paying taxes on their state pension unless they have other additional income.
  7. The Director General of UNESCO is Audrey Azoulay, a French Jew.
  8. They are desperate to believe there exists a distraction from the actual issue that matters.
  9. Just like stating the Epstein Files are on my desk and then saying they don’t exist.
  10. I thought the Supreme Court ruled sitting Presidents can’t be prosecuted for anything they do while exercising their Presidential Powers.
  11. Deal with the real villains, the gambling industry, nothing but parasites.
  12. The people getting killed queuing for food and aid are not holding hostages. And then there’s the fact that Israel has now moved to a policy of interning the Palestinians in a concentration camp and ethnically cleansing Gaza. It is no longer just about the hostages. The mission is ethnic cleansing, dead Palestinians are Palestinians that don’t have to be expelled.
  13. I thought Trump claimed that Iran’s nuclear facilities had been totally destroyed by the last attack? https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5409923-trump-iran-nuclear-facilities-destroyed/
  14. Its relevant of course, perhaps more out of who were the decision makers in the sweetheart deals Epstein was given. However, releasing the ‘Grand Jury Files’ is a bait and switch move by the Orange Conman. The promise made was release the ‘Epstein Files’, these Grand Jury records are not the ‘Epstein Files’.
  15. That stuff you can’t post will be a yard deep all over MAGA land if Trump cuts a deal with Maxwell that lets her out the cage that justice put her in.
  16. What’s interesting about this is the number of Republicans who defied Trump to back this subpoena. Then we have the problem of people in Trump’s administration refusing to obey Congressional subpoena. Add to that, Trump’s deputy AG and former defense lawyer Todd Blanche meeting with Maxwell. At the very least this is a representative of a person we know is named in the Epstein files meeting with a material witness. The stench is only getting stronger.
  17. I expect Trump supporters believe that once the huge organization that is ICE have rounded up all the immigrants they’ll quietly decommission their interment camps, wrap up all the profitable sub contracts and quietly disband.
  18. I’m of the opinion that a dog that attacks someone other than a burglar causing actual bodily harm should be put down before it does it again.
  19. No, that’s not what you said. Coventry Comp., has a lot yo answer for.
