    It's reported that social services were reluctant to intervene for fear of being accused of homaphobia and racism - so yes. Furthermore, it is often said that killers are created in the first 5-10 years of their lives, and this killer's early life in the travelling community sounds crap.

    upload_2021-12-15_8-52-30.jpeg The latest UK CPI rate of 5.1% would not be out of place in the EU... however I’m sure someone will moan.

    We’ve left the EU, mate. We have centuries of success to look forward to as a result.

    I’ve had a look up and social services have refused to comment I can’t find, not saying it doesn’t exist, any evidence to support your claims they were reluctant to act due to the aforementioned concerns, just that those who raised the concerns didn’t feel their concerns were taken seriously. Can you provide links to that.

    I was hoping for some better wins than “some EU countries have higher inflation than us” to be honest for the billions we’ve sunk into it.

    I’m sure they’ll smash those throws.. apparently it’s the xp grind, whatever that is, that’s the problem.

    And if you add in the extra 2% for Boris lie factor we're probably worse than most of them.

    Just reinforcing my point from 2 days ago when discussing inflation. It’s not just here it’s all over. The US is at 6.8%
    Nice to have proper facts rather than just moaning.

    Has Brexit made our inflation rate lower, higher or had no effect?

    I have answered something regarding World inflation. I was correct in that it’s not just the U.K. as some think (actually don’t think). I’m not discussing Brexit here. That is another question and it doesn’t matter what I say or if I show evidence, you will always get 1-2 that will just disagree for the sake of it… even when they are wrong.

    Ok. You’ve answered a question nobody asked.

    Answer my question if you want to. I think you know the answer.

    I find most Leave voters don't want to discuss Brexit any more. I asked a leave-voting friend of mine to name some of the benefits of having left and all he could come up with was vaccines.

    Of course Brexit has caused a rise in inflation. We have 1.2 million job vacancies, mostly in areas where wages are traditionally low and where jobs were previously done by EU migrants.

    Plenty of pluses. We are not in that corrupt union anymore which is the most important thing. Not to mention city investments and new tech investment. I could discuss other smaller things that make life easier but there is no point as whatever I say, you and the rest of the remainers will always come back with some inaccurate thing.

    fact is the pandemic has overshadowed many things but once that is out of the way more benefits will become apparent.
    By the way I didn’t bring up Brexit i mentioned inflation… only 2 that have have are remainers… funny that.

    It was a comment made on Sky News, I think by a journalist. I assume there will be an inquest and the so called professionals will have to answer for their apparent negligence in dealing with someone who described herself as a psycho, threatened severe violence online and was seen giving the poor child a beating in the car.
