    I think it has something to do with ‘Bitcoin’ ownership being ‘virtual’, or something like that.
  2. Chomper Higgot
    I have absolutely no idea who he is, what he does for a living or where you got the photo and information behind your claim.
  3. Chomper Higgot
    Or management pay and bonuses? Dividend payments?
  4. Chomper Higgot
    Nonsense. Truss has demonstrated that things can get a lot worse, and it only took her three weeks to do it. But please, do tell us what your preferred alternative is to elected government?

    Money that could be cut from fares: https://fullfact.org/economy/do-public-want-railways-renationalised/

    I think got more to do with train services being run for profit and not as a public service.
  7. Chomper Higgot
    Find public transportation with taxes. Maybe leave that 45% in place for the purpose.

    You mean millions of people in the UK aren’t struggling to afford regular meals? https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/cost-of-living-crisis-uk-food-poverty-b2074449.html

    I’m trying not to laugh at that ridiculous response.
  10. Chomper Higgot
    I’m all for bus drivers being well paid too.
  11. Chomper Higgot
    False equivalence.
  12. Chomper Higgot
    But surely you understand inflation reduces their standard of living.
  13. Chomper Higgot
    But you said the price is set years ago. Regardless, the UK receives around 3% of its gas from Russia. So I don’t think the ‘not receiving 3%’ is the cause. Me thinks it’s rapid price hikes, somebody agrees with me: https://heatable.co.uk/boiler-advice/where-does-the-UK-get-its-gas-from?gclid=CjwKCAjwhNWZBhB_EiwAPzlhNrBggJd_NqrR8iADp89hB_BuZqkemKIHxY1cpduduMfwe0q1MC1mfBoCMJkQAvD_BwE

    Thank you. Now what is your objection to ordinary people making a decent wage?
  15. Chomper Higgot
    I believe I always make a written response to posts I attach laughing emojis to (you’ve quoted an example above). But if the emoji offends you more than having your arguments torn to pieces, I’ll happily forgo the former in favor of the latter. Now how about addressing the argument I made in response to your post?
  16. Chomper Higgot
    Which doesn’t help the argument that the pound dropping will not impact people in the UK does it?!
  17. Chomper Higgot
    Oh, so Russia invade Ukraine and the price of fuel and energy shot up almost immediately. Supporters of the Tory Government where almost unable to keep up with the speed of it as they blamed inflation on fuel and energy hikes.
  18. Chomper Higgot
    I’m sure you hear lots of things, but without a link to your source who knows what it is you are hearing,

    Oil and gas is paid for in US Dollars. Imports are paid in the currency of the nation selling them. So cost of energy more expensive. Imported foods more expensive. Imported goods more expensive. Snd that’s before we get to increased national debt payments forcing cuts in government spending.
  20. Chomper Higgot
    Why the restraint? Buy four, save twice as much.
  21. Chomper Higgot
    The pension schemes were doing fine. The idiot PM messed with the economy and all of a sudden the Bank of England has to spend tens of billions to prop up Sterling and prevent pensions from defaulting. The safety net (another massive liability on the economy) would leave millions with significantly reduced pensions. Truss just can’t help winning voters over.
  22. Chomper Higgot
    Millions of pensioners are in receipt of pensions from final pensions schemes, millions of workers are relying on their final salary pension schemes to support them in old age. Many will be Tory voters many will be swing voters. And you want us to believe there is nothing to see here. Is there any level of incompetence from this Government that gets through to you?
  23. Chomper Higgot
    Which won’t save you from the idiot who’s now in Number 10.
  24. Chomper Higgot
    I’m sure he thinks he’s on his way.
  25. Chomper Higgot
    Perhaps it doesn’t bother you, but I’m sure it bothers very many recipients of Private Pensions in the UK. I wonder how many of whom are Tory voters, or swing voters?
