Grew up in a Glasgow council estate In 80’s.
Never saw this type of machete action in open play playing out on the streets and it was pretty rough then.
Demography is destiny
Rubbish….. you’re taking about the high end of earners. The top 5%.
I am not in that bracket, far from it.
Parents (me, my wife) work bloody hard for 40 years to provide for their kids. I want to leave my kids something they can build their life from, from my hard work.
Why is hard work...
The money by which you paid for the house originally has already been taxed through a mortgage financed mostly through PAYE, NI, VAT on fees, stamp duty etc.
How many times and different ways should the same £ be taxed?
And how do you to propose to deter/ prevent those who choose to carry machetes and want to fight each other in a Main Street in Uk?
One thing that is key to note here, is there are Police on scene, in the video, who are completely unequipped to deal with the situation.
They are bystanders...
The line at goodison won’t be the first 11 choice for season.
Still a few tweaks from whatever that goodison team will be to a settled 11.
Not sure JS will be in the 11 when JE is back from olympics.
His loan spells look like he has grown up a lot and would defo be in squad for this season
How about this post by @El Presidente?
[News] The police.. and not the one with Sting in it
Surely the best thing to do is for Manchester police to stamp on the head of a white person at the airport and then…problem solved, no more racist accusations.
The last time I spoke to a Police officer was when my son’s bike was stolen 2 years ago. They didn’t find it.
The time before that I was 10 and was told to stop kicking a ball against a garage wall.
(am now 51)
How times change, and not for the better.
Sad, the country I grew up in has changed...
It’s got nothing to do with racism and everything to do with law and order and the maintenance thereof.
@El Presidente may be well known in the football finance world, but should be intelligent enough to understand not to jump on piece of CCTV, and make snap, discromiatory statements.
Stay in...
Expect to see local MP to publish statement any minute now, expressing his disgust at men committing gratuitous violence against Police officers…..
in the same way hi came out within 30 mins of phone footage was released
not holding my breath….
If thresholds come down…my aver.
It’s not entitled for my children to expect what your parents worked for, (me as parent in this example), to be left to you without being taxed.
The reason we work is to leave our children with the benefits of what we have worked for all our lives.
So they can...
that was worst opening ceremony I’ve seen, in a lot of opening ceremonies.
Only France could out do the French. I love France and have holidayed there loads with tent, et all.
I want to see French sports people, not random sports people.
I want to see full stadium, with the focus on those who...
The house is legally owned by the owner and has been paid off at some point by parents.
I’m talking about an average house in an average street in Sussex, who when it’s time to pass on the family home to our kids, who we’ve lived their formtiave lives in that house, I don’t want them, when they...
I’m not wealthy, I’m just hard working and aspirational.
I wanted a better life than what was on offer at the time: Council House. I didn’t go to university, I got 4 o levels.
It was in Thatchers Britain in 80’s, growing up in Scotland where they hated her, even more than down here.
Aspiration...
