Classy! Show me one time I have criticised you for having an opinion on UK politics. We ALL comment on US politics and only about 3ish of us are from there, the reason we're on here is because we're opinionated! I demand a retraction!

Blair criticised Brown as PM but I will certainly criticise him as Chancellor for his £100 billion raid on pensions. Lots of people will never forgive him for that. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1531448/Browns-raid-on-pensions-costs-Britain-100-billion.html factcheck says no. "But to suggest that he 'comprehensively, single-handedly destroyed' the nations pensions is an absurd exaggeration." https://www.channel4.com/news/articles/business_money/factcheck+did+gordon+destroy+our+pensions/171020.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the Director of Public Prosecutions so I have no doubt he's a mad dog in a scrap, he also might come across as a bit posh but his mum was a nurse and his dad a fitter and turner so his soul is fundamentally purer than his opponents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baffling as they can already claim for laptops etc. Why on earth would they need £10k extra when everyone else only gets £4 a week to cover the costs of working from home (if they bother to claim it via Self Assessment).

MikeO Posted April 13, 2020 Report Share Posted April 13, 2020 I re-watched Howard's Way yesterday. It's obviously primarily about football but there's a clear political back story that anyone from Merseyside should have a think about, especially if they've ever thought of/have voted Tory (not that I'm a local I admit). A must watch on many levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
