    This chat about gender specific toilets is largely irrelevant when many councils have shut most public toilets.
    It’s a great hypothetical argument.

    Public toilets were primarily closed down due to :

    1. vandal acts
    2. the antics of homosexual men
    3. druggies


    I very much doubt that the annual OAM costs
    ever have anything to do with it.

    In the case of my local toilets, more due to the local homeless using them as a shelter

    And we can't have that

    Just watched the film The Big Short. It passed me by back in 2016.
    What a brilliant exposé of the corrupt practices in the financial sector and the indecent relationship with Government.
    Frightening that so many years on almost nothing has changed as a result of the 2008 crash with banks continuing to be protected - and the prediction that the blame would fall on 'immigrants and the poor' has never been more apposite.

    This film obviously focused on Wall Street and the US market, but it equally applied to the UK. <doh>

    Now would be a good time to mention that Rishi Sunak was working for Goldman Sachs and Sajid Javid was working for Deutsch Bank at the exact same time Michael Burry was betting against the housing market...

    Margin Call is just a drama based vaguely on the crash, but it's worth a watch.

    I don't think he goes to his course in New Jersey where "Ivana" was buried (for tax purposes - yes, really), probably because of outstanding warrants

    I thought it was now Tory policy to remove all references to their affiliation! <laugh>
    Wonder if the leaflets were at least printed in green?

    Have to admit, that if I hadn't known the source I would have had to double check she wasn't a real MAGA <laugh>
