So you are jealous of wealth. Thought so. Shame your incapable of having a debate. Oh gawd π Are you happy with the rich getting more and more wealthy, stashing their money off sure , advocating for cuts to gov spending? Would that be sure or shore . Just asking as you do like to pick me up on mistakes. It depends at what level you class someone as being rich. I have absolutely no issues with people having wealth. (I'm not one of them, far from it in fact). If they are paying the same percentage levels of IHT, CGT Income Tax etc I don't have a problem. I just don't like the view of "You've got more money than me, that's not fair, you should pay way more tax than me". People can be asset rich but income poor through no fault of their own, so should they be forced to pay more tax?

You'll have to explain that one to me Yatton. When have I said how difficult the rich have it. If you're rambling on about VAT on Private School fees, which you know I'm against, you don't have to be rich to want the best education for your children and send them to a private school. Some people sacrifice a lot in life to give their kids a good education. Sounds very much like the lefty view of being jealous of people with money and don't like how they spend it. Tory Bingo ! As France brings up the wealth jealousy number and private school fees . Couple more ticked off . Just waiting for trickle down economics for a full house π ππ So you are jealous of wealth. Thought so. Shame your incapable of having a debate.

Any chance we could close a few loopholes that allow the big boys to get away with paying next to no Corporate Tax? Itβs difficult, because you get the likes of Super & France parroting bullshit about how difficult the rich have it , how they pay more than the rest added up β¦.. then they vote for this. Meanwhile they get richer , we all get poorer and on and on it goes π You'll have to explain that one to me Yatton. When have I said how difficult the rich have it.

Can't get the link to work so if you Google Rwanda v UK crime statistics and click the site numbeo.com>crime. Crime rate comparison Rwanda v UK. Going by your logic why was Rwanda chosen for girls to continue their education and not Syria. Afterall in your words Syria would have been an upgrade. The FCDO advises against all travel to Syria whereby such advice does not apply to Rwanda. Going by my logic? Iβm using your logic to show how ridiculous it is π€£ youβve now used that same logic and highlighted how ridiculous it is. Thanks for proving my point π Finally, if you could just answer the question on tourists in London considering itβs so frightening as youβve posted the last few weeks. βGod help londonβ, βLondon is an absolute stateβ and βpeople getting murdered in the streetsβ are posts I recall. Do you consider London safe then? After all your comments recently Iβd been keen to hear verdict. As for the other forum, are you ok? Where have I mentioned Linekar? Stuart mentioned youβd defected to there so I was curious to see what you said, which I commented on. Do you have a problem with me asking you to back up your opinion? Because so far you havenβt provided any sound logic as to why tourist levels mean a country is considered safe. I swear if the Tories said Afghanistan was safe youβd agree with it! What are you waffling on about? Now your changing my words again from "unsafe" to "frightening" words I have not used. I said "God help London" in respect to Khan being voted in. You can check that if you like. Are people being murdered on London streets? Simple question with a simple yes or no answer. (Hope that's not too difficult for you). IN RESPECT OF LONDON YES IT IS A SAFE CITY I WAS COMPARING THE INCREASE IN CRIME RATES UNDER SADIQ KHAN. (How many more times do I have to repeat myself). clearly you don't read a post before replying because where did I say "you" mentioned Gary Lineker? Did you check that site about crime rates or are you just sticking by your guns that Rwanda is an unsafe country because a judge says it is. So I'll throw it open to you to tell me why Rwanda is an unsafe country when crime rates are lower than UK. In respect of Syria please break down how many visitors are western and how many are Muslim.

And later this year Starmer and Co will have the opportunity to reverse those restrictions. If the number of International students applying for places in UK universities has plummeted since these restrictions came in what does that tell you? It should never have been used as a loophole for people to get family into the UK. Anyway there are far too many universities in the UK offering pointless courses. And no I haven't defected to the other forum I've been a member on it for 10 years I just don't post much on it unlike Oldie but I don't see you flinging insults at him. Thought I'd have a look at the forum on there as I'd forgotten it exists tbh! Curious as to why you consider Rwanda a safe country, but you've been banging on here for weeks about London not being considered safe?Β And another thing you've got wrong. Where have I used those words "London is not safe". If you're going to quote me at least get it right. I have been highlighting the increase in crime figures under khan...never have I said London is unsafe. So you look on the other forum for "2" posts I made, one about Lineker and how blind he's been during his lifetime if he believes the events in Gaza are the worst he has seen (and gave examples of genocides during his time including Rwanda) and the other in reply to Oldie just saying 1.4 million people think Rwanda safe enough to visit. You then come back on this Forum to start an argument with me. How very sad!π

The logic would be that if Rwanda is so unsafe why would 1.4 Million people even consider going there? Why have Afghan girls relocated to Rwanda to continue their education if the country is so unsafe. Afghanistan is literally ranked as the most dangerous country in the world. Quite literally any country is an upgrade. Would you consider Syria a safe country? Its the 3rd most dangerous country in the world, yet 2m people visited there last year.Β Why would 19 million people visit London if its unsafe as you keep projecting on here? Why would people keep moving to London if its as unsafe as you keep telling us under Labour's rule? Answers on a postcard please! Where did I say or post those statistics. Did I say you did? Read my post again. However, feel free of course to post the statistics you've researched thoroughly beyond 1.4 million tourists. Quick one, are you aware that the year before the government announced their Rwanda policy, they had 0.00% crime rate and have held the status ever since? Talk about luck, huh?Β Can't get the link to work so if you Google Rwanda v UK crime statistics and click the site numbeo.com>crime. Crime rate comparison Rwanda v UK.

Because as I said there were 1.4 Million visitors to Rwanda. Look at the crime statistics between Rwanda and the UK, Kigali and London. It's hard to find a definite number, but it looks like London had about 19 million visitors in 2023. Yet Rwanda is considered safe because 1.4 million people visited.Β Remind me of your logic in that?Β The logic would be that if Rwanda is so unsafe why would 1.4 Million people even consider going there?

Topper is a miserable old fart and is never happy π. Spent too long watching Rovers, all these false dawns with new owners don't help. Last summer we were hoping to sign the best striker in L1, this season we're told anything better than mid table finish will be a good outcome. Totally agree. Those who have been watching Rovers from the latter Twerton years are probably happy with our progression. Whereby us oldies from the Eastville years are somewhat frustrated with all these false dawns.

Just a question then Oldie....had Labour been in power during Covid and the surge in energy prices exactly how would they have kept national debt to a minimum. Unless I've missed it I've never seen Starmer produce a manual on how to manage a pandemic. Please find me a European government whose debt didn't grow due the pandemic. I bet Starmer and all the lefties are thanking their lucky stars that covid wasn't under their watch. Pretty sure they wouldnβt of partied hard like your mob did π You mean the one leaving party where they had tea and cake that bought down a Prime Minister.
