  1. Not sure I follow. Labour definitely truly believe Brexit has shafted us. I'm glad they've finally got the guts to say it.
  2. I've heard the same thing about denim and cotton production so I stopped wearing jeans and underpants. My solicitor is trying to use a diminished capacity defence?
  3. Those two played for them last year too, unlike most the rest of their mercenary team. Why didn't these NI fans come last year to watch them "strut their stuff"?
  4. And people say AI is a bad thing.
  5. And btw, why the fuck have I got the reputation of a perv here?
  6. 'Vote' is a new word for it.
  7. My work is fucking killing me at the moment, the cunts actually expect me to work. Sorry, I've let you all down with my lack of posting hilarious observations and AI generated inages of CT in his panama hat or wykiki's missus's extramarital affairs. Another job hunting saga thread incoming soon I reckon.
  8. I don't normally speculate on conspiracy theories but its hard not to agree. I mean Mossad had tye capability to implant explosives in every Hezbollah pager but didnt have intelligence on this, which must have involved dozens of Hamas in the planning? Occams razor here points to Israel knowingly letting this happen iyam.
  9. This thread is becoming very Swedist.
  10. Sorry, do you support SOUTHERN Ireland?
  11. Should have had 14 plus Brazil and Argentina tbh.
  12. I just cant imagine anytging that terrible happening. Then you see Gaza etc and see ut happening in the most terrible way to hundreds of families daily. I imagine it must put your relationship under terrible strain, Im nit sure mine would survive it.
  13. You are Randy Marsh and I claim my £5.
  14. What the fuck is wrong with you people?
  15. Comparing the US and UK is pointless. And actually I thought the US bond market was looking pretty iffy, despite the dollar being the world's reserve currency, which takes some doing. The stock markets are a different matter but most economists are expecting another catastrophic crash soon
  16. They're not all insane on the SMB, "Jenks" has nailed it. Does anyone know if you actually send these things into Viz?
  17. It's true though. Billionaires are almost by definition globalists. Many of them are psychopaths who are obsessed with their monetary wealth and don't want it taken away from them despite not needing it. I'd love to tax these cunts to death. Easier said than done though. I'm still a pragmatist and there is nothing pragmatic about the Green Party. They're idealists and actually fundamentally anti-scientific and irrational. We all want utopia but they're not delivering it. They'll help deliver Farage and make the world even more dystopian.
  18. Reeves is handcuffed by the bonds market, not donors. Everyone is. On the one hand here, your saying he wants a modest wealth tax. These are usually one off taxes though. You cant repeatedly tax wealth, although you can raise capital gains and inheritance taxes which I'd support, but for some reason this is massively unpopular. Anyway. 15 to 20 Billion is peanuts in the grand scheme of things too. Hardly going to revolutionise public services. Kind of the point with trade offs. Do minor stuff, get small results. Do something more drastic, and there will be much more major consequences. None of this matters, he can say what he likes, he's not getting in power to implement it. Farage might be though. His economic policies are actually very to the left because, eell, popularist. They'd probably do as much damage to the country as his fascist shit. We'd be an overnight basket case.
  19. Completely unrelated but talking of office politics, once I was exchanging personal emails with my mate who worked in the BSA of the NHS. Anyhow, we were chatting about old work colleagues and this lass we both worked with previously happened to work at the BSA. A fairly lewd email conversation happened, we couldn't remember her name, so he looked it up on intranet mailing list. The silly fucker then somehow managed to cc her into the conversation. Fucking hell man, his job was immediately on the line and mine too probably. He rushed off to find her and grovel in person and she was okay thank fuck. I wouldn't have been given the convo. NEVER USE WORK EMAIL FOR PERSONAL CHATS kids.
  20. Apart from blatantly telling lies, or seemingly being happy your child is being tapped by a paedo, what I find most strange about this need to be loved is the fact they mocked us for being "everyone's second favourite club" if that were ever true. I think most people are agnostic in their hatred of clubs unless the club is competing. I'd much rather other fans hated us than liked us for football reasons. But as far as enjoying the social aspects of Newcastle, we're always going to be one of the most popular destinations. You see it at every game at SJP. Sorry mackems, we get your away fans too. People just like the city and people of Newcastle, no fiction required, just stats. 👍
  21. He's a good communicator, but he's also got the attributes of a populist. I don't care whether popularists are from the right or left, they are bad news for us. Polanski has some great slogans about hope, but he's economically illiterate. You can't just say "wealth tax" without explaining exactly what this would be. Who pays, how? How would you stop capital flight, how would you appease the bonds market? How would you tackle the deficit and natuonal debt and encourage investment? Were it really that simple, do you not think Reeves would have tapped into this at least a bit? Instead she puts one foot out of step and we are crucified by the markets risking huge interest rates hikes. Yeah, he'll be popular, thats what popularists do. He'll eat into the Labour Base further, especially with younger voters. But his base will never be as high as reforms, because Green idealists are massively outnumbered by Gammons. Farage will be rubbing his hands together. And fuck me, I haven't even mentioned the Greens ludicrous stance on nuclear energy.
  22. I genuinely don't fear death that much. I massively fear disabilities and the death of loved ones though, and the loss of a child is clearly the worst thing that can happen. Very sorry for all those who it has happened to, including my Mum.
