Yep. The major issue being Thatcher and those after sold off all the country’s assets so we have no capital generating revenue or to borrow against. We have to bring all the main infrastructure back into public ownership.

Chiiiiiill. Not for me, but many people find familiarity calming . You do you, and don’t worry about others who are happy.

“Ditch plans”? Nothing has been announced yet. Why can’t we stop this endless speculation and just wait for the budget?

Nearly got run over on our local one last night. It’s in a well lit and foot heavy area that is a “suggested” 20 zone. Driver was exceeding 20 and I was halfway across when he got there and pretty much drove over my toes. I think drivers are better conditioned to react to lights.

I just hope that the Reform number drops dramatically. So many duped by Farage who will make things even worst for most of the people voting for them.

The driver of massive cuts to public services that killed our economy and plummeted so many into poverty. I think he should just disappear and we should not have to hear from him ever again…unless he wants to apologise for the damage he caused.

FFS. There is no more to cut. Our public services are on their knees after 15 years of austerity. Tax increases the only way - but if you’d be more specific in the question and say we’d tax the super rich fairly, the percentages would be different.
