    [Politics] The Labour Government

    For others reference, this is your response to the quite widely proposed suggestion that, to raise tax, US tech/MNCs should be targeted. I also feel like it's a no-brainer but we're obviously missing something. What that is remains a mystery to me at least. I'd have thought that targeting sales...

    [Albion] Mats Wieffer SINGS on 5 year contract

    You're spot on with that diagram -- and the movements that should have been made, and weren't. I think things would have been so much easier for MW if YA had gone to the right. In saying this, I'm not trying to isolate and scapegoat a different player, merely that there's a fair bit of...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    That's concerning. Pennsylvania is the big one and KH needs to get over the line there. A question: will Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin be enough for a Democrat victory (so long as they get their non-marginal/swing states)? Edit: apologies -- I've just seen your post 7326 which pretty...

    Off the back of this thread, I've listened to Pornography for the first time in decades this morning. It still sounds wonderful, particularly Siamese Twins and A Strange Day.

    Excellent. Let's leave it up to the 'very wealthy' to run our affairs. I'm sure it'll turn out well.

    If you trust Petridis (which is somewhat contentious on here), the new one is in the vein of and the best since Disintegration -- which is the one that I've listened to most in recent years.

    Excellent. I was there five months ago, I think courtesy of your recommendation. Get involved with the Timorasso, and they also had a bargain-priced Isole e Olena Chianti.

    That's one 'raw' fact, granted. I won't blame them for the upturn in spending during the pandemic, but debt grew either side of that. And they came in claiming that Labour had crashed the economy, 'the cupboard is bare', 'the credit card is maxed out', and so on. Then we had austerity, which...

    I don't take such things as seriously as you, but am with you about Just Like Heaven. Mind you, I vacillate between that and In Between Days, and am not resentful of a list that has A Forest at the top.

    [Politics] The Labour Government

    Another way of looking at this is to turn back to 1945. As with the 2024 iteration, the government were confronted with massive debt left by the previous administration. We can forgive it though because government debt was at 250% of GDP. And yet the best government this country has ever had...
