What I'm objecting to is the use of bogus statistics to attempt to justify calling someone a liar.

If there aren't enough houses for the uses people want to put them to, then "build more" is a better solution than "stop people using them for what they want".

That's the fundamental difference between us. I think holidays a are matter between me and my provider, you think holidays are a matter for the government to allow or deny under licence. If there are not enough houses in Upton-on-Severn, where we have just been, then they should build more...

If you think that chart proves that the Liberal Democrats had more support than Reform, then you need a refresher course in the vagaries of the UK electoral system.

Ban tourists, perhaps. Hotels could be converted into apartments fairly easily, and provide a lot more homes than if we aim only at banning those tourists who like self-catering.

Perhaps I missed the nuance. You quoted an absurd conspiracy theory and appeared to suggest that it might be true, so I made reference to another absurd conspiracy theory mentioned in some recent posts. My apologies if I read you wrong.

Does it also show Trump on the phone to Russia doing his spying? Try and keep it real. Next you'll be posting the photo taken two years ago that some people are using as evidence that Trump wasn't shot at all.

I know Trump is so loathed by many on here that people are willing to believe almost anything about him, but Russian spy? I think even for the most blinkered anti-Trumper, that's a stretch.

It was taken by a professional photographer who had about a minute between the shooting and the escorting to the vehicle. He would have been well aware of the background. The photographer wasn't bothered about getting a shot that would win kudos for Trump, he was bothered about the shot that...

"Have I Got News For You" is a satirical TV programme, not a news programme. It isn't true.

The government doesn't provide holidays, cheap or otherwise. This thread is about whether the government should prevent other people from providing cheaper holidays for the less well-off, or whether (as appears to be the majority view on here) whether the less well-off should be told to stop at...

But once again, it's back to the policy of cutting the numbers by raising the prices and making poorer people stop at home. Have you compared the costs of a holiday cottage with a hotel? I've just stopped in a house in Upton-on-Severn that cost three of us just over £700 for a week. If we...

Kane can't play in a system that has one man up front, and that man having primary duties to defend. (Watkins was useless in the last 10 minutes as well, after the equaliser and England went back to 9 behind the ball. No forward would be any good in that formation.)

Which is the best way to run, when there is a gunman about and you don't know where he is?

I suppose that if the scenes showing people screaming and ducking for cover are ignored, then it would seem odd that no-one was screaming or ducking for cover. Perhaps everyone on the audience was part of a conspiracy, along with the secret service men?

The problem Harris has is that she is perceived, rightly or wrongly, as having been appointed primarily because she is a black woman. And as they found out with Geraldine Ferraro, it doesn't help to appoint someone as a token because it upsets more people that it pleases. Margaret Thatcher...

So are you saying that someone who drives a smallish petrol car like a Corsa, that cost £4,500 eight years ago and has 99,000 miles on the clock with no sign of implosion as yet, would save money by buying something electric? I'm not sure you're fully costing the depreciation into this. I...

The good old days when only the rich went away, and the poor got a week in Blackpool if they were lucky?

Short memories. Boris Johnson was voted in only 5 years ago. You don't need to be "common as muck" like private-school educated Sir Kier Starmer. (Yes, I do know that he started at a grammar school before it was shut down by his own party, though obviously his parents' Labour principles were too...

They have been known to argue that the aircraft was only 2 hours 55 minutes late by their own fault, but the delay that took it over the three was ATC not being ready the instant they were wanted.
