Just another average day on here lol. @steviewevieand @Ozanneshutting down any discussion with their usual pish and howls of 'Tory', getting called out for it, Ozanne pretending he has people on ignore and Stevie pretending he is putting people back on ignore. Always enjoyable to watch. 

Sorry I had to quote your post as I have everyone on ignore and wanted to know if you were talking about me. Now you know I have everyone on ignore and I bet it eats at your very soul.

Mind you I could just use the boards as a guest 😜

Lots are but I don't think there is anything they can do.

If they challenged and won - we would be without government for another couple of months and things would get even wore.  And it would all but end any hope of re-election.

To be honest the best thing for the country right now is GE but we won't get that.

Yeah I agree that having months with no government again would not be ideal. I guess they'll just put up and shut up then?

TBH I wouldn't be surprised to see a U-turn on the mini budget. They say they won't but they say they always won't.

Maybe it will be Truss' big announcement during her conference speech.

I remember stories of the 2008 financial crash where they said government action taken by Brown/Darling had to be taken that October due to banks being hours from running out of money to fill cashpoints.

The fact it's being talked about in the same category as the collapse of Lehman Brothers and it nearly taking down the US financial services sector with it is not a good sign, either of the significance of the moment or the fact it's not even been a week since Kwarteng's statement to reach that stage.

Plus it’s all our their own making, there’s an element of other crises that external factors played a part but this has none of that.

There’s nothing left for them to cut unless they just get rid of thing’s completely.

To convince your kid to turn the heating down this winter point out to them that they're paying for the Govt borrowing which is paying the heating bill.

Yet another post completely off topic and personal by him.

Fraybentos has prior of bullying people off this forum. He hounded Festival Jamie off the forum a couple of years ago and was given a warning by Neil for his actions. He’s not a nice person.

Almost every post you do is off topic, unless the topic is religiously praising starmer

    • live music / main stage will generally end around 11pm but theres dj’s and late goings on right till 4am if you are so inclined.   Drinks are about £7.50 a pint probably and yes theres lots of mixed drinks / spirits / cocktails available to buy   wonderful festival, back for my third year in a row and 4th overall

    • So we've signed a Horny Czech, and Bruno's turned up the training camp instead of doing Isak's nonsense.   Still not sure I believe Bruno's staying mind, but glad he's not doing the sh*t Arsenal are asking him to do to lower the price. If they want him they can stump up.   My suspicion is that whichever of Madrid/Man City don't start next season with Rodri will go for Bruno, and one of them will come in while Arsenal have f**ked about trying to get him cheap, which while I absolutely want to keep him, would still be good enough bants and a nice middle finger that I wouldn't mind it so much. I just wish we'd report Arsenal for tapping up.   If rumours are to be believed, we're after 2 more defensive signings, and an attacking player, on top of a replacement if Bruno leaves, having already signed a LW, 2 CMs, a GK, and some youth players. Huge churn, but apart from a couple of Bazou Toure's games for Ivory Coast at the world cup, I've not seen any of them play. Over 2 summers we've basically changed our entire team aside from the CBs.
