it can actually have a positive if people who were investing in ag land and renting it purely as an IHT shelter become forced sellers it may make it more affordable to buy farmland. Personally I would favour an increase in VAT in addition to the other tax hikes. No pain, no gain. The British people should be leading less frivolous lives until there is zero national debt. Over consumption is what has ruined our finances. And re immigrants I favour pushback in the channel - if they threaten to throw babies overboard personally I would say thats their choice, but still deny access to our waters. Of couse not all legal immigration is good either, students bringing family accounted for loads under Tories. I would have chosen Cambridge educated 'Cruella' Braverman, who wants us out of human rights act

that's the thing though - it's not beyond the realms of possibility that they are very racist and they are just using a black woman as 'leader' to fool the kids into thinking they are not racist. I voted for Sunak, not thinking they would win, but he seems to me genuinely intelligent, more so than nearly all other current politicians I can think of - after the budget he got straight to the point - telling Reeves she had simply fiddled the debt target.

it's bad that he's ignored you three times - at least have the politeness to say 'I don't want to explain'

just keep building as many new housing estates as needed. Agreed Since January 2021, when Joe Biden came to office, there have been more than 10 million encounters - about 8 million, external came over the southwest land border with Mexico. Under the Trump administration, there were 2.4 million encounters on this border.

if they are determined enough to give up hardship and pursue a more comfortable life in a rich country

US has a problem in that it is connected by land to South America, just like Europe is connected to Turkey and Syria. One way to make houses more affordable is to increase supply, the other ( arguably less ethical) is to decrease demand. Trump is better than Starmer or Harris on this one key issue - reducing the numbers of economic migrants. Even though Trump is known for sexual abuse it may be better to have a flawed character who is willing to go in hard and save taxpayer funds being spent on processing illegal immigrants. Kamala will try 'firm but fair', but in this case only brutality will stem the flow. I don't think the Democrats have messed up the US enconomy - inflation was in the system from way back,when interest rates hit the floor, the S&P 500 index of biggest companies has nearly doubled during the Dems time in power

The sentence on the photo in quotes can't be true - 'There are people out there that work themselves to the bon and they still cant afford enough money just to survive' Surely if they can't afford enough just to survive, they would not be surviving and no longer out there to 'work themselves to the bone'? Someone in genuine financial difficulty who is not lazy and does not have learning difficulties can easily make enough money. Chap who delivers Ebay Evri items in my road has an evening job too with Uber Eats, he's now making skilled tradesmans money ~£1k a week from deliveries. I wouldn't want to deal with all the public or do as many hours, but he is showing me the way home in cash terms

20000*.15 is only £3k, people ought to be pleased if it comes in - saves them worrying about what products and services to waste their disposable income on

a puffer jacket doesn't always show someone is drunk with power

Labour don't need to smash the gangs - they've realised if they can inflict enough suffering through the budgets and other means the UK will become so bad no migrant would ever want to come

I guess a dealer warranty is part of the reason people will pay full price for brand new My two Iveco's are far from new and have cost me quite a few thousand over the years in repairs - thankfully I can keep them as I don't have to go in LEZ

maybe an Iveco outside of France? not sure on import and other taxes e.g IVECO DAILY 35c16h 3.0 160cv p. 3450 - ribaltabile trilaterale Used - the parking WWW.THEPARKING.EU IVECO DAILY - 45,500 €

China and India - can't tell them they can't build new coal, have to let them have it. 2 billion people can't be wrong

he could probably see the driver slump and the car probably stalled if it was manual i get that it would have been safer for the cop to turn him into swiss cheese, just incase he had a gun and was able to return fire. The cops didn't doo bad this time, I just wish ours would dress a bit better - like in Miami Vice

you are right - white slave owners raping the young black daughters of slaves, is what I meant. I shouldn't have said 'for sure' without actual DNA evidence and sworn witness statements

sometimes the people get fed up with all the dark deeds by dark dudes. One thing's for sure, plenty of white slavers raped the young black slave daughters - there will always be horror and misery as long as humans walk the Earth

they are on about glacial meltwater, so I guess taking it from specific places before it mixes up with too much seawater It is a good idea to help get through a drought - I remember '76 that was bad enough and now there are probably a third more homes in the UK to supply. There was a worse drought before my time in the 60's, a few elderly people have told me about having to queue for water at standpipes. It seems to me utter madness for the politicians to allow the UK population to keep growing through immigration - no one can predict the long term weather - if it gets really dry here it will be all build windmills and solar just to power desalination plants. Sicily in July this year - worst drought they've had for ages

Labour wants a million new homes in 3 years and they are building new rivers and groundwater to supply them Southern Water unveils 'utterly ludicrous' plan to ship water from Norwegian fjords to the UK | Daily Mail Online WWW.DAILYMAIL.CO.UK Southern Water, which serves 4.7 million customers, has submitted official plans to bring in 45 million litres of glacial meltwater daily for six weeks in case of drought.

the budget will no doubt give plenty of people something to moan about, several gigawatt hours of electricity powering the nations keyboards

If Starmer is bad, then the Tories are worse than evil Former Housing Secretary Robert Jenrick faced accusations of 'cash for favours Michelle Mone "Officers from the National Crime Agency (NCA) were investigating PPE Medpro, a company that received more than £200m of government Covid contracts weeks after Mone referred it to ministers." Rishi Sunak accused of shielding super-rich by maintaining non-dom tax loophole" Home Office spent £370,000 settling Patel bullying claim by top civil servant" Sleaze inquiry into Boris Johnson's £15000 Mustique holiday" Daily Mail Nadhim Zahawi sacked as Tory party chair over tax affairs" Tory MP Owen Paterson has failed to declare his interest as a paid lobbyist for two private sector companies, for which he was paid £110,000 a year. One of the companies, Randox, has been able to secure Covid-19 contracts worth roughly half a billion pounds, many awarded without tender and despite the company not having enough equipment. In conclusion, no homo sapiens has ever been fit to govern - we're not better off with anarchy, but don't expect too much. Nature isn't perfect - just as the body can be riddled with cancer, human thoughts and ideas are often diseased too.

you cant blame immigrants for not bringing their own water with them Meeting our Water Needs for the Next 25 Years ENVIRONMENTAGENCY.BLOG.GOV.UK News and updates from the Environment Agency

What I want to know is why do you personally feel you have to say something about the suspected perpetrator? The majority of arbtalk members never comment on one of his posts, they don't feel the need to join in. You don't have time to police the whole internet, but you can at least police one forum?

2211 posts, but if you look at the number of members of arbtalk, very few of them comment on them, or react. When someone talks back, gives a like or a laugh its digital heroin. I often think of the bile that would have been written if slavery were not yet abolished, Lincoln posting on X and the slave owners trolling him

fact is all the intelligent pensioners who made a lot of money also got winter fuel payment, retired doctors, senior management etc. Winter payments should be for unintelligent poor people only. Tax the brainy ones to pay for the thickos A retired version of Michelle Mone would have spent the fuel payment on a meal out. Labour are terrible on immigration, other than that they are more public spirited than the tories ever were. Conservatives - greedy clever peopleead who only care about their kind and who always know whats best for the country, HS2, selling off national water boards, farming out half the NHS and prisons, spending a fortune on consultants instead of being competent enough to make decisions in house.
