    [News] 39 bodies found in lorry in Essex

    So you can only show empathy with a truly horrific situation unless you offer up solutions to the problems that led to that situation (solutions that have been stubbornly eluding numerous governments and agencies for some considerable time). I'm glad you've made that clear. The next time...

    [Politics] Brexit

    How does the deal bring Britain back together when it simultaneously puts a border down the Irish Sea and provides one remain voting UK country (Northern Ireland) with effective EU customs union membership, while denying the other remain voting EU country (Scotland) no such provision? All you...

    The Brexit deal currently on offer will not 'bring britain back together again'...rather the opposite.

    That is a perfect description of Johnson letters to the EU...though I never had him down as a liberal left wing snow flake; just a spoilt posh boy with a misplaced but massive sense of entitlement and his own self worth.

    [Politics] Brexit

    No he is looking to win today and to win an upcoming general election. He is so intent on winning in the short term that he is willing/actively encouraging the break up of the union in the medium to long term; the border down the Irish Sea and the effective Northern Irish EU customs union...

    So what's the difference between an Albanian thief and a British thief; their behaviour is the same, presumably their character (whatever that might be) is the same (i.e. poor). The difference is nationality, and it's a difference that wasn't introduced by me.

    I'm not implying that anybody is racist. I am saying that they are being xenophobic when they place country of origin above behaviour. I thought I was pretty clear on that.

    So once a criminal always a criminal, or does that apply to only Romanian and Albanian criminals? Or do we keep any Brit who has committed an offence confined to the UK for ever and a day? Let's have some long term thinking on this rather than just knee jerk reaction.

    Why is a Romanian or Albanian criminal worse than a British one; why be obsessed with nationality rather than behaviour? It's all a bit weird.

    Government policy was to heavily discount prices of council housing, to ring fence council housing budgets in order to push up council rents and to ban councils from using the receipts from housing sales to build new properties. It is little wonder that the stock of affordable housing was...

    [Politics] Brexit

    Decades of sustained under investment in social housing, the promotion of house price inflation and the increasing availability of personal debt to finance housing are the stories behind the increased pressure on housing stock. It may not be as easy to point the finger at as foreigners coming...
