Don't post on here often, but read it every day. Can't sit by and watch @Ozanne getting picked on for doing little other than make a polite 'point of order' request without my saying something. F

Obviously horrible news. But I think pointing the finger at Rayner is not only unfair to her, but also serves to help silence critics of the Tories. Don't forget that over the years, BJ's words h

They are now going to get rid of the tax cut for the rich. So Truss will surely have to explain now why the economy isn’t going to grow? As in her own words this was necessary for growth…

KamiKwasi is on the BBC breakfast news trying to claim the 45p was a distraction on their tremendously strong growth plan.

Just amazing. The level of gaslighting is incredible.

They'll say it was too much, too soon. Maybe next time they won't be so gun-ho and ignore the so called experts.

The lady is for turning. What a disastrous start to her leadership. They had a choice, uturn on one of her main leadership pledges, or risk markets crashing and potential political suicide, especially during tory conference. Just have to see how much trust there is in the government amongst the public, Tory MPs, and the markets after this.

They are tearing themselves apart and this is only her first month!

No the reason to fuck the pound was so their mates could make some quick cash. Kamikwaze already told them what was going to happen so they could get their money in the right places.

Northern geography obviously not MisTrusses strong point. Surprising as she grew up in Leeds. 
 

I’d be interested in seeing the route from Hull to Bradford without getting congested in Leeds. 
 

Then for the leg to Liverpool there’s a little something called the Pennines in the way. 
 

There’s a very big reason why more lines don’t exist East to West.

      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.

      I think the level of headliners Bloodstock get is varied    There's been bands who have gone on to play Download in quite a low spot like Meshuggah, Behemoth, Opeth etc.    Then they've had years like 2025 where you can argue that all three headliners are download main stage sub level    Knocked Loose right now i'd argue are 3rd down on main/opus headliner level while EC and FFDP are borderline main stage sub
