Big fan of a lot of Corbyn's policies. Voted for Labour under his leadership twice. Also recognise that a big part of the failings at recent elections is due to the abandonment of the historically core Labour voters. Particularly the post-referendum vilification of brexiteers. It's a(nother)...

OK boomer! I can almost smell the gammon.

Another poster only willing to read one line. We've already covered that. Controlled immigration in no ways stops immigration, it is just selective based on skills (such as nurses and doctors). Even then, I think it would be preferential to train our own instead of poaching other country's key...

It is this sort of deliberate misquoting that causes so many problems for people online. Read the whole thing. It is the rich people and the poor people already living in the country that are the winners and losers. We were talking impact of immigration, not the immigrants themselves. Where...

I didn't say immigration was bad, not even once. I am fully supportive of immigration. I only think that there should be a limit, that limit being one where all skills gap are filled and infrastructure doesn't exceed capacity. I am well aware that there are many benefits to immigration...

it's good to hear a pundit be honest. I'd like to see them be more honest about the way the game is played, particularly around diving/cheating but it's a good start. I do struggle to understand the German mindset that the current situation is better and Leipzig are the bad guys. Any system...

See, this is what happens when you react to the poster and don't actually try to comprehend what was said. I didn't say immigrants cause slums, I said housing poor people in poor areas cause slums. You will remember I also mentioned ex-cons like in halfway houses, alcoholic rehab centres etc...

Sorry Trug, I wasn't calling you trash, OP = Original Post, not Poster. The article itself is clickbait, and your headline post title implies that being outside of the EU means we will no longer be able to trade with them and in turn we will have food shortages. I am in no way implying that we...

I know, I agree, but that wasn't the point of the article or my criticism of this thread, prices are an afterthought because others brought them up. It is impossible to have a serious discussion about anything with everyone just cheerleading instead of reading what has been posted. There is...

Bloody hell! I think we've managed outraged remainer Bingo on this thread. They're all here and frankly, it shows why having any sort of discussion with them is fruitless, pun intended. It is fine to be anti-Brexit and still agree that the article the OP posted is trash, because it is. I am...

What a pointless article. Brexit doesn't mean we stop importing food. We import the majority because it is cheaper to grow them in foreign climates, especially in colder parts of the year. We could grow our own if we wanted to but we grow things that is suitable for our climate (and export a lot...

Yeh, good luck with that. You're entitled to your own views but you aren't allowed to post them unless they are identical to their views. I am in an identical position and we're not the only ones.

I guess the problem is that with no crowds in the other leagues it could attract a lot more to Non League if it was open but they don't have the infrastructure to handle the increased crowds safely.

Yeh, you're right. Councils just collect. It's a HMRC department. The same applies though, whoever is setting it. If businesses stop using town centre and go to cheaper areas then less rates will be collected in total and they'll adjust the calculations. Businesses will then move and we will...

If it works fine while you aren't logged in but not while you are then it isn't an accident. It means your account has been restricted. Almost certainly because you said something that borolad didn't agree with. See the thread "FAO Rob" on the old board.

Unfortunately I don't think you can have just entertainment. It needs to be a mix of entertainment/restaurants/pubs etc and shops. People go shopping and then do the other things while they are in the area. Footfall is important for a lot of those businesses. Once the shops have gone then the...

Haha. This guy is obsessed with me for some reason. Ignores me but talks about me all the time. Tries to guess what I have said and is wrong every time. He really is pathetic.

I think one thing that is forgotten is that a sitting, or potential politician, has everything scrutinised and judged and so they have to be overly-careful to the point that they basically just avoid having a genuine conversation. They all come across as incompetent idiots but whenever I see one...

Ah ok, that makes sense then, cheers. What about the ability to appeal the grade based on the mock and teacher assessment? Where does the process count as being stopped? I presume it will amount to nothing though and even if it does it will be too late for those affected. How does it work in...

They would surely argue that it isn't solely automated, it is based on the schools internal ranking of the students. If they had given a list of students with no other metric and just randomly given out grades that would breach but they have the ranking which is from the school. It's different...
