Particularly grim when you take into account who is living longer. No retirement incoming for plenty of working people.
Maybe pensions should become means tested...
Rory Stewart was brought into this discussion as better than the Brighton Pavilion/a generic Labour candidate but I am not sure that you could say that he could do a better job as a Prison Secretary than say Tom Gray could do as Culture Secretary?
What RS does also have is a record of voting...
Couldn't your description of Tom Gray and Eddie Izzard as 'two activists, driven by single issue politics' also be applied to Sian Berry and Tom Gray?
I also find the festishisation of Rory Stewart strange. He's already shown us what he would do in power: Rory Stewart's votes in parliament...
Seemed a bit of a shame to me. I voted Izzard as I think to overturn majority of 20k when the incumbent party is to the left of Labour would have been easier with a candidate with high name recognition. Just being the Labour candidate doesn't seem like it would be enough vs when facing...
The white bits are the housing allocations. Plenty of room for the the NIMBY ghouls to walk their dogs and they might even still get to use their footgolf club memberships.
St Cuthman's Wheelbarrow. The story has it that he carted his nan up from the West Country in it and St Andrew's was built where the rope that he hung over his shoulders snapped.
Send him to the stiffs for the rest of his contract. Seems to me there is more value in having a reputation as a club who sell players on the club’s terms rather than at the first sign of interest from elsewhere or when a player throws a wobbly.
Would also be concerned if we sold him as the...
It’s mad that after over a decade of the UK voting Tory, and then voting to cut the EU red tape (workers rights), that something like this could happen to working people. I guess this is the Global Britain that some voted for. Fingers crossed you’re not next.
Won six at home. Just checked and we also scored 29 goals at home that season!
Sounds more entertaining than Brighton Nil rolling over and getting our bellies tickled from 20 mins as has been happened quite consistently at home since Xmas.
Posts like this are clear evidence sportswashing works. You don't just buy yourself a fanbase of thousands of whichever club you decide to buy, a good number of whom will defend you whatever, you also buy yourself fans of other clubs who will ignore everything else and fawn over the dough that...
Has anyone got any recommendations for a decent pair of trail running shoes? I'm signed up for the full Steyning Stinger in a few weeks, so need to invest.
Do the packs etc hold their value over time? ie will you/they be able to sell them for the same or more in a few years when they and their pals are playing a different game/have stopped gaming?
Agree that there should 100% be a by-election. Seems like that would be a foregone conclusion though.
I would imagine this defection means that Labour are attracting a lot of Tory voters if they are even attracting their MPs. Lovely to see. All welcome!
Maty leaving was a move that suited everyone. We got a better keeper. Maty got to play for Arsenal for a bit then move from Brighton to San Sebastian. Upgrades all round!
It's quite enjoyable the jealously that seeps out of every one of one of your posts where you mention that you think people in need are put up in four star hotels. Every day you come on here grousing about it as if it's somehow important.
Why don't you pop down Hastings and stand in the way of...
