Why would I want to campaign for a party I've not voted for in the last five general elections? I have no affinity with farmers either. My point was, applying IHT to farmers, even at a reduced rate, was never going to plug the hole. Why have you wrongly deduced I'm a Tory voter?

Well, I got a ruler out and drew some crayon lines on my screen and you'll never guess what .... He's only bloody dead-level with the last man!! Checks laws of assosiation football manual.... ONSIDE !! :clap:

In for the the long haul indeed? Hoping to fill the claimed £20b hole in the budget by taxing dead farmers was never likely to succeed in just 12 months. Poor judgement or ill-advised? Either way, farmers IHT will forever be known as the Reeves tax.

My philosophy on all food is that I want to taste all the flavours in my last mouthful as I did in the first. This discounts many Indian dishes but there are a few I do enjoy, and the bhaghis, naans and popadums too. But for me, the Chinese just wins by a nose ...

It's on Optus (Aus) channel 6 on a Firestick

This thread is yet another beautiful example of the rich tapestry of NSC life. Thank you all for sharing. ** apart from the one knob-head obviously ** Both me and Mrs SS are members of families where long-term wedlock and all kids,, nieces, nephews, grand-kids etc were born in wedlock so I...

3pm on a Saturday - no UK broadcaster will be showing that. Option is either a dodgy stream or a non-dodgy Firestick with a reputable IPTV provider ...

Do you think it would be possible to ration carbon usage on an individual level? Once you've used your personal quota, you have to pay to buy more carbon credits and this excess carbon tax is used for <insert worthy cause here>. Oooh, just imagine ....

Typical, expecting someone else to do it for you 🙄

Ha, defo not!

Of course, else you'd need a gardener to tend to it while you're away .... 😉

Globe jet-setters with VERY big carbon footprints ... Never done a cruise (they're the worst apparently) and not flown since 2013. I invested £10k in solar panels in 2018. Just trying to do my bit for our planet ...

Nothing dodgy about a Firestick, its what some apps some people install on them ... Bit like calling all cars dodgy just because some people put on "illegal" number plates. Anyway, hands up everyone whose ever watched a pirate video (DVD / VHS) at some point back in the day? Same thing =...

In "Can't pay, we'll take it away" Bailiffs can't force entry to residential properties, but once in, you cannot make them leave. If you do, they call the OB and you will get done for obstructing a Bailiff. I believe they ARE permitted to force entry to commercial properties - but I think they...

Crying out for a 10 minute sin-bin. Trouble is time wasting is subjective but it is spoiling the game. Change from 45 to 30 mins each way, ball in play, big digital clock at each end with new official timekeeper role.

Rear pressures should be increased with extra load. 2 adult passengers in the back plus full tank of fuel could add 200kgs (or more if they're lardys). Then there is a caravan possibility (for some). Also, if driving in snow or ice, lower all 4 by about 10% will give the tyre a little more flex...

My dad is 97, lives alone and is fully independent. Still drives ... Mum, we'll she's 91 and although she still has a beating heart, to all intents and purposes, she would be better off dead. Almost 3 years ago she had a massive stroke. Its left her bed-bound, unable to speak, and total loss...

Perhaps the surgeon was Gregg?

Oh My !! These were the "house-names" at Longhill School when I was there in the early 1970s .... I was in Arundel [reds] No recollection of raped admins mind ....

IF it's 2024 performance then FB was measured Jan-Jun with St Pauli and Jul-Nov? with BHA His failure to win any game in Dec was probably not included in the calcs? So his 2024 "score" will have been massively (>50%) influenced by is St Pauli efforts and less so buy his BHA achievements.
