 | Forum Reply | Has Burnham focussed yet on the National debt? at 21:42 22 Sep 2026
I've paid tax and NI since I was 18, I'll be paying tax until I die, because I've saved into a private pension, it's a fact of life I don't object to that what I do object to is patronising progressive types asking to rebalance the system so those who are capable of working and don't get more. The morons don't realise that by paying people more in benefits than they can get by working will lead to a distortion of the system where less and less taxpayers fund people who do not contribute at all. I know it's a Marxist route to equality where everyone has nothing but the dumb ass jerks can't see it. [Post edited 22 Sep 22:57]

I wonder how she's addressing the lack of a legal framework for women's rights under the Palestinian Authority? |

A good point well made, 70 percent of OAPs pay income tax. They are still contributing. OAPs contribute 30 billion pounds in UK tax. [Post edited 22 Sep 21:24]

Spot on. There's an enormous and obvious difference between decades of contributions as part of a contract and receiving benefits having contributed nothing. |

WOL has a grand total of 6,000 subscribers. I'd guess that the paywall has reduced the overall number of viewings and viewers which will reduce revenue in the long term. |

Rumours that Burnham is going to hike CGT. Problem 1per cent of CGT payers account for about 5O percent of CGT paid. These are the guys who can find their way around CGT or defer gains. |

Wait until they realise that the UK Government is supporting Saudi against the Houthis. |
 | Forum Reply | Cabango - Fair play at 11:31 20 Sep 2026
When teams opt to put the ball high into the penalty area or play long balls in the air up front as their only tactic then a defender like Cabango is almost essential. He's very good at what he does. We lose a bit a guile passing out but we need to complete with the likes of Lincoln. |

The Shia and Sunni (Saudis and Houthis) war in Yemen has been going on since 2014, there are reportedly 400,000 people who have lost their lives and 4,000,000 people displaced. There's been limited coverage and nothing in the way of demonstrations in the streets or allegations of ethnic cleansing and genocide from students, journalists, politicians etc. and very limited media coverage. The Houthis attack a pipeline and suddenly everyone is outraged, too late, about 14 years too late. [Post edited 19 Sep 9:57]

A range of other outlets are reporting this as a security agreement rather than a handover of sovereignty. Of course, the agreement has not been published yet. [Post edited 19 Sep 9:42]

I tend to disagree the competition is of no consequence and I'm sure the DCMS could find more important issues to devote time to including the pollution of social media by countries like Iran and Russia. |

The Sunni and Shia have been going at eachother fur centuries, right now the Houtis are dismantling Yemen. Middle East conflict is way way more complicated. |
