F1 ? Get yourself down to Portwood roundabout, if you want to see cars going round in circles. 🤣 Actually is that roundabout still populated by the loonies on a Friday evening ? Yep. Wacky races.

Said this countless times before, you will get absolutely nothing out of trying to engage with TVOR. Whenever anybody tries to (see Suedehead's latest valliant attempt) he simply ignores them. He has a right to do so, but the pattern of who/what he chooses to repond to, coupled with the absolute garbage he pops up to post, suggests he's not interested in, and/or capable of, entering into adult discussion. And to be fair, I do have a life away from my PC and/or phone so prefer not to monitor BB's in a nerdy 24x7 manner. Just watching the Dutch F1 recording at the moment No need for the apostrophe in "BB's". I have a six year old nephew who could do better.

You haven't got a clue. To call me a snowflake on several occasions is laughable. Get back to your burger flipping. Lil crybaby

I have no problem responding to good faith with good faith. tvor's about as bad-faith as you can get Said this countless times before, you will get absolutely nothing out of trying to engage with TVOR. Whenever anybody tries to ask a reasonable question and seek an actuall opinion, not something parrotted from an oddball Youtube video, he simply ignores them (see Suedehead's latest valliant attempt). He has a right to do so, but the pattern of who/what he chooses to repond to, coupled with the absolute garbage he pops up to post, suggests he's not interested in, and/or capable of, entering into adult discussion, he's just here to wind up 'lefties'. Exactly. He doesn’t even deserve the effort of a witty quip at his expense like Fallowfield’s just now. Let’s see how long he keeps wasting his own energy responding to my childish low-effort jibes 😂

You are clearly another of the far left extremists on here, watch this video taken before the election and balance that with what he has said and done since. What an actor or was he also just telling porkies?

In fairness, most of us are communists. Because it appears the Overton Window has moved to a point where Reform are middle of the road.

The woman he spoke about probably gets pension credit so she'll get her winter fuel allowance, as the system wasn't means tested I along with thousands more would receive the payment here in Spain, I'm not happy that Labour went for this before going for the offshore accounts of the billionaires but let's see how things develop over a period of time, a lot of this is about showing the markets that the grown ups are in charge.

Seen plenty of ToBs, including the recent women's tour. Very different to the Tour de France when that came to Yorkshire. Roads were closed for a good while before the riders, support vehicles and caravan come through. I went to Woodhead for that and the roads were car free for nearly two hours before even the first bits of the caravan came through dispensing tat. I've been at the top of some ToB climbs and general traffic was still coming through 15mins before the lead police motorbikes. For the women's tour I think it was even less than that! Also on Woodhead. Great day - no of bikes increasing the closer you got, roads closed from Glossop. Climbed Woodhead which never usually remotely viable due to the traffic. Massive crowds, great sense of occasion.

It didn't take them long to go back on their promises :-( The government's claims of a £22bn "black hole" left by the Tories have been questioned following substantial pay awards to unions - including to both junior doctors and train drivers. From Sky News ..... Laura Trott, the Conservatives' shadow chief secretary to the Treasury, said: "The government are no longer promising to protect working people from their incoming tax raid because just like pensioners, working families are next in line for Labour's tax hikes. "After promising over 50 times in the election not to raise taxes on working people Labour are now rolling the pitch to break even more promises. "The chancellor is entitled to raise taxes to pay for her expensive choices and above inflation pay rises demanded by her union paymasters, but she should have had the courage to be honest from the start. "This a betrayal of people's trust and we will hold them to account for their actions." The pay awards are not above inflation when we take into account where they were when the tories came into power they're still lagging behind, I'd also like to see inheritance tax introduced on everything above the £12,500 threshold, I find it odd that people see it as a right to have unearned income protected in a way that earned income isn't. I'm sure we have had this chat before but, I will have already paid tax on my wages used to pay for my pile of bricks, on top of stamp duty etc why should it be taxed again when I peck it?

Same here but my kids won't have paid anything on their unearned windfall, my last house trebled in value and I didn't pay any tax on that, my current house in Stockport is increasing in value and I'm not paying any tax on that unearned wealth either. Edit: Less fortunate people who work and pay taxes all their lives and live in council homes don't get to leave anything but are taxed at the same rate as everyone else.
