    Not my area of expertise but if I was actually planning to break anti-terror laws en masse and achieve some sort of tangible goal rather than begging for attention safe in the knowledge it’ll be a few easily influenced yoof with colourful hair screeching for social media as they’re arrested before getting a slap on the wrist I’d not be announcing it in advance.

    Bill, I've got suits that are older than her.

    Birmingham residents one year on...

    See video embedded in article, just under a 7 minute watch, worth listening to in it's entirety.

    Interesting to know every person in that room highlights immigration as the number one problem, even the guy that said crime, if you listen to what he follows it up with...see from 5 minutes for that bit.

    The media should do more of these discussion groups, and every politician should be listening...

    I said this the other day, what is our identity?

    identity /ī-dĕn′tĭ-tē/
    noun
    1. The condition of being a certain person or thing.
      "What is the identity of the author of the manuscript?"
    2. The set of characteristics by which a person or thing is definitively recognizable or known.
    3. The awareness that an individual or group has of being a distinct, persisting entity.

    How would you answer your question on the basis of the above ??

    Even after the lies of no council tax rises or tax rises on the working classes, they have still managed to double the ‘black hole’

    Be prepared for even more tax hikes in a few month.

    Smashing the gangs was another false promise. Record number of people have crossed the channel this year. Utterly incompetent government.

    I will never get promising to not increase taxes, for me surely that was the most sensible thing to do. They sat on the sidelines for 14 years, they knew how bad things were when coming into office, they had plenty of time to work out what was required to fix the economy, if he even was fixable.

    I'd say it wasn't, so why we trying to on a wing and a pray.

    I still believe they knew about the blackhole, I'm sure they created a second one that was nothing like the figure they told the nation, the OBR even insisted as such.

    Creating a second one gives them leeway to do the things they promised or excuses why not.

    But let's get to the point here, a lot of these problem will not only stem from 14 years of Tory rule, but mainly because of covid with the blackholes.

    Why are we trying to fix these holes, put them on the back burner, what is debt, it is what you want it to be and what I'm seeing is it's a way of control and holding the country to ransom. If the banks and lenders don't want to help out, then hit with the wealth tax, and hit hard, instead of constantly screwing over hospitality.

    I think the minimum wage rises and Employer NI were bad moves and have destroyed the industry to tipping point. Some in recent months have gone over the edge, costing thousands of job.

    I don't blame Labour for the financial hole we are in, but stop using the sticky plasters ffs - interesting actually I noticed Morrisons were finally back in profit, by several billion, about time we started looking a bit closer at these profits (pretax 2.1bn)...

    https://www.thegrocer.co.uk/news/mo...availability-and-value-pay-off/707769.article

    and what they are doing to bring lower prices to consumers, because from where I'm looking they (all supermarkets) are creaming the tops of everyone with price fixing.
