solve me a riddle if you will The Government have said one of their reasons for voting against the meal vouchers is they have boosted universal credit surely better to give these feckless adults vouchers that have to be spent on food than a boost in universal credit that they can spend on anything else There’s no riddle involved. It clearly illustrates there is a feckless, lazy, grabbing underbelly of people in this country who’s first and last thought is themselves, and bollox to everything and everyone else, including their own children. Iwonder how long it would take for a black market trade in these vouchers, where organisations would but them from the ‘needy’ at 75p in the pound? ok so why have The conservatives given them extra Universal credit (an to use a Borisism) just to spaff up against the wall on Booze and fags

Oh, and I have now seen the inevitable
"What has happened to the Children in Need and Stormzy money" on Facebook
I am sure there are zero racist undertones in that

As a matter of fact me and the Mrs always put some items into the collection point in the supermarket in the hope it goes to feed some unfortunate child. At least that has a sporting chance of reaching the intended recipient.

If only you would hold them to the same standard that you hold the lazy people on benefits eh? But it’s become clear that’s against your religion isn’t it? No, wait, let me guess your response: “B-b-b-b-b-b-b Labour!” You’ve managed to become a parody of all the Tories on this board oldgas....and that is quite some feat.

More like once someone calls you out on your typical “b-b-b-but Labour” response you have nothing left in the tank. It’s totally pointless debating someone who can’t be critical of their own position because it robs your argument of any objectivity and makes you predictable. Further, it makes you seem like you belong to a cult.

Further, it makes you seem like you belong to a cult. I have been very critical of Heath, Cameron and May on these threads. I haven’t made my mind up about Boris because these are unprecedented times and this virus is throwing up a problem this country hasn’t seen or dealt with for over 100 years. On Brexit I think he’s doing a brilliant job. He’s standing up to the asshole EU and they’re slowly starting to realise they’re not dealing with the traitor May.

Boris is making May look under rated, which is frightening really. As for Boris vs the EU, I’m sure Britain leaving without a deal is keeping the EU up at night. They must be terrified. Who was it who said “it will be the easiest deal in history” and “we hold all the cards”?

Boris is standing his ground and they are having to change their methods. Hence they returned to negotiations last week when Boris in effect told them to F off. You don’t seem very happy about that. Still hoping we’ll stay in?

It won’t open. Does it say he’s put his children on his tax return?

Slipped your attention, has it?
