    Genuine question, why don’t you guys join a politics forum for your political posts and keep this one for City related posts?

    I’d be more than happy to do the same, before some of you accuse me of being a hypocrite.

    Ashton the beauty of this site is you have a choice of joining in or not liking or not liking.... I for one don't actually take part in the word link one... But don't say take it off somewhere else. Do you think as a group of like-minded persons if we all met up in pub we would only chat about Bristol city???
    I go to the pub a couple times a week we don't spend an hour chatting about our hobby but embrace all manner of topics ......bit like on here but face to face .
    Our forum works very well and I certainly gain from it long may it continue.

    Effin hilarious.
    Prior to the GE you were forever, correctly, berating the useless Tory government.
    Boot on the other foot and you change tack completely.

    2357 in first year and 14 days ===47,280 since July4th 2024
    AN AVERAGE OF 169 daily for this 14 days this compares to 123 daily for his first 365 days! goss almighty projecct that = 61, 685 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    no wonder there is protest at dover ... maybe 2 TIER has a mental spot that stops him from actually being able to get out of his lifetime rut of being a solicitor and trying to prove the innocent are actually guilty!!!!

    OH annual bill last year I saw 1 report that hotels pocket money and free phones/ tv/ meals/ clothes cost upward of £12,000,000,000 add to this wages/maintence fuel / and office rentals etc etc etc and approaching over £15,000,000,000 [ my guesstimate! on latter ]

    note last year hmrc collected around £858,000,000,000 in 2024/25...............

    ..............During 2024 to 2025, receipts from Income Tax, Capital Gains Tax and NICs combined accounted for 57% of annual receipts. Over the last decade, Income Tax, Capital Gains Tax and NICs made up on average 56% of total annual receipts with VAT and business taxes the next largest contributors, contributing an average 21% and 10% of total receipts respectively. .......................... we spend

    £2 of the tax we pay [ various ways ] on the illegal boat people. But dont forget this is only a part of the problem a few 10's of 000's arrive by other methods!!!!

    Afghan migrants also top the chart for crimes such as rape, sexual assault and violence in the UK and are 22 times more likely to offend than a British person
    But here we are having to take tens of thousands more of them while this pathetic excuse of a Government stands around and watches the country go to the dogs
