    England U21 v Italy U21 ko 19.45

    Lawro not at all complimentary about Jake Fried Chicken. Suggesting the first thing Southgate should do is take him off. Says he's playing like he hasn't played since May 2nd.

    The students are at it again after the Queen's Speech

    Well I'll be going. Ordinarily I'd take my children but fear of the behaviour of the police means I won't take them. I own my own business and am middle aged with enough income. I am seriously concerned about many of the government's proposals and feel voiceless so will protest peacefully. As...

    (Some people in) Brighton - taking itself a bit too seriously?

    Thanks for the heads up Bozzer I've signed! Caring about the poor is not not taking myself too seriously

    POSSIBLE National Rail strike coming up

    And then you and the other smug right wingers on here can call them scrounges and make them starve by cutting benefits. Seriously though, we do need a plan as a country for jobs lost to technology

    Are labour voters the worst losers in the history of the world?

    I know 2 people who were friends who spent their last few weeks battling the DWP over benefits after being found fit for work. I work for a housing association and know one tenant who killed himself after being sanctioned by the DWP for missing an appointment due to his schizophrenia...

    Are labour voters the worst losers in the history of the world?

    This is not a game of ludo. This is about people's' lives. I'm upset because the cuts will cause deaths - social care, forcing people with Cancer to work, causing people with mental health issues to consider suicide. Just so some of us who are better off can buy more shite...

    The Lucas Effect. Green Voting-Both Nationally And Locally

    Have you ever tried cycling on the A27 from Brighton to Falmer before and after the works? Especially with children?

    Which Party Is Telling The Biggest Porkies

    I've recently resolved to try and overcome my polictical cynicism. Whilst I am suspicious of the main parties, I'm also aware that that those in power may well have a vested interest to make us all as cynical as possible in order to disenfranchise us. Remember most politicians are not in the...

    The Lucas Effect. Green Voting-Both Nationally And Locally

    My children can now walk to school safely and cycle to the Amex. Death rates have really reduced. For me as a resident of Brighton, I care so much more about that than you from mid Sussex taking a little bit longer. I'm not smug nor middle classed and you are out of touch!

    General Election 2015

    I disagree about housing is a special case and used it as an example. You could make just the same argument about cutting health, education or social care as they all will result in increased costs later. I think we need to count the costs of "living within our means" now rather than investing...

    General Election 2015

    But scrapping trident or tax raises surely = living within your means. What those who want huge cuts often forget is the added costs of service cuts. I work in housing and cutting social housing has led to billions of pounds increase in the housing benefit bill - all paid to private landlords...

    The Right To Buy.

    The policy guarantees discounts of 30-50%. Paid for by selling large local authority houses as they become empty. So 2 homes are lost to social housing to give one lot of adequately and securely housed people a giant windfall. With the same money you could build a million new homes. I work in...
