Tax is the best way to finance a civilised society. Pay your fair share! (which may not be the same as the least you leaglly can).

Michael Fallon is a pensioner.

The misuse of the word disinterested.

Absolute classic for admirers of BensGrandad here: 1. BG says something demonstrably incorrect: 2.This is pointed out to him along with the fact that the correct information was clearly stated earlier in the thread - something he has clearly not noticed. 3. BG claims to have read the full...

D'oh! I thought they were the Southampton ones...didn't notice the tiny pink at our end.

Isn't it Murray's goal? I would think that goals scored are also included on an expected goals chart.

Seemed to have a bit of a case of the Chubas today. Real lack of enthusiasm for chasing back and clearing up his own mistakes.

Anyone who has a Bronze mambership can get a ticket to any game that they want (and get a fabulous tin full of tat as well). In fact I don't think there has been a game yet that hasn't gone on general sale to anyone with a purchase history (Liverpool might be the first). It may be more expensive...

Black Magic

Jobs abroad have already been covered in by BG. Children born within the embassy grounds would probably be exempt although I expect very few actually are. I myself was born in Washington DC whilst my father was working at the embassy there. I was born in a local hospital rather then the embassy...

Oops - I meant San Marino :blush:

No, that's the beauty of this loophole in BG's otherwise well-thought through scheme - as far as I can see you don't have to actually reach where you are going, you just have to be on the way there. Using the pedalo ruse, you can effectively choose the country that the child plays for. You or...

It's OK because according to The BG Rules all you would have to do is pop the imminent mother onto a pedalo and say "head for blighty, dear" and the child would have the choice of Greece or England.

How do you know without watching?

I wondered about this, I would have thought a penalty on its own would give expected goals of at least 0.8 - I think they may have got them the wrong way round.

Just copy the page link, open a private window, paste the link and off you go for a couple more pages. Only problem is if your missus comes in and asks why you have got a private window open...

Compared to most I thought that was remarkably measured."From the first minute they were up for it - the fans", "Fair play to Brighton they beat us fair and square" Can't imagine that sort of reasonableness on Arsenal Fans' TV or even the mighty MK Dons channel.

You think that's bad? I've run out of wine and so have had to open a bottle of Port (and I've typed this sentence six times to get it right...)

Is it a good thing that there is behaviour on building sites that might make people who are "snowflakes" cry? If so why?

Exactly what was said and the context are irrelevant, the whole point is that whether she was being very sensitive or not, what I perceived as "banter" she perceived as victimisation. I was trying to be a fun boss by "having a laugh" and achieved the exact opposite. People's perceptions of...
