  1. Let’s rejoin EU single market to ease cost of living crisis, says Tobias Ellwood WWW.TELEGRAPH.CO.UK Tory MP, and Boris Johnson critic, suggests ‘radical thinking’ to fight rising inflation, including ‘daring to assess how Brexit is...
  2. If your limited company can't survive post IR35 then you weren't really running a viable business in the first place; you were just a subby/'employee' who used to direct a limited company for its benefits within current tax law. I and companies I work with definitely benefitted from the breaks offered by IR35, luckily I don't keep all my eggs in one basket.
  3. Government Expenditure and Revenue Scotland 2020-21 WWW.GOV.SCOT Government Expenditure and Revenue Scotland (GERS) is a National Statistics publication. It estimates the revenue... Here's one for you mate, the full facts and not just a Murdoch soundbite. I'm not disputing that some of your friends have stopped working as the tax imposed makes it seem to be a bad proposition. Personally I'd pay a decent accountant some money and crack on, but each to their very own.
  4. Maybe so but I think it's slightly different and should be viewed as such. We have a PM who has been caught lying to the police and has seemingly got away with it. That's a poor precedent. When the cops say that they're taking 'No further action' (NFA) that doesn't in any way mean the suspect is absolved, it means that they either don't have enough evidence to pursue the charge or that it's 'not in the public interest' to pursue the charge. I'm not sure who decides the latter. If nobody pulls them on this then they can and will do whatever they want with even more impunity.
  5. Convenient timing too given the absolute horrorshow for them being exposed for having parties, and utterly taking the piss out of us, when we were only allowed 30 people at close friends' funerals.
  6. Maybe the sharp dropoff in late 2021 is due to covid lockdowns. It's crackers to think that gun nuts would obey lockdown rules.
  7. I dunno, I think that given it was written over a year ago before her/her son payed 12m to a lass he's apparently never met to settle a rape case speaks volumes about how detached from reality some people are.
  8. https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/tv-radio-web/harry-and-meghan-the-union-of-two-great-houses-the-windsors-and-the-celebrities-is-complete-1.4504502
  9. 1) Perched on a bench. 2) Flounder.
  10. They seem to favour the pestilence/war/famine model; it might well turn ugly, it's too early to tell just yet.
  11. Let's add to that the crime bill that Patel seems hell bent on getting through again to those things, there are serious ramifications in the pipeline when/ if it gets passed. Odds are we'll be too cold and hungry by then to protest much by then anyhow.
  12. Hey Dave, which bit did you disagree with the most? Here it is again in case you didn't catch it all the first time.
  13. These are the people who created all the bullshit restrictions that cause many of us considerable grief yet you give them a free pass when they flaunt it? I'm bored to death with the covid clatter myself too but I do think it's important to hold people to account when they're found out to have been making mugs of us all.
  14. You never have a bad word to say about them, that's defending someone in my book.
  15. https://www.itv.com/news/2022-05-23/exclusive-pm-pictured-drinking-at-downing-street-party-during-lockdown Police watchdog urged to investigate Met’s partygate probe WWW.STANDARD.CO.UK Boris Johnson was not fined for an event at which he was photographed apparently drinking wine and raising a toast.
  16. Dave, I'm no supporter or voter for Labour in their current format, you know this. Give me a reason or two why we shouldn't all slag off the tories? What do you think the current gov has done well? Deffo not covid, that's clear. So what is it that makes you defend them all the time? That Corbyn fella had some good ideas, they were fully costed but people bought the bullshit, just like you rightly point out they bought the bullshit about covid too. Maybe you should go into politics as you're wasted on the internet. As an aside, do you know many folk from Pegswood?
  17. I think she's got a point. What's the best you can come up with?
  18. 4 days for that, up to 28 days for a bit of weed, utter shite. I hope you get something sorted soon Eggs.
  19. Unlucky. To be fair, I'd probably scrap a bit if someone was going to cut my bollocks off. Some cats are just bastards though, it seems like you have a bastard cat.
