" > > Can you explain why you think that would be? > > Thanks er...an increase in corporation tax .....an increase in higher rate of tax for high earners - In the modern global economy both of these will deter big business from investing in the UK - which we need more than ever post-Brexit Move towards nationalization will deter investment but probably more damaging is the very real and slightly malevolent anti-big business rhetoric - I think Corbyn and co genuinely see big business and the bankers as an evil rather than an employer of millions (including alot of the high tax PAYING high earners). The way McDonnell/Corbyn and Co go on you'd think that big business pays nothing in corporation tax and the 'rich' over 80K earners don't contribute hardly anything to Income tax - in both areas they punch way above their weight in contribution - yet you still see social media momentum types harping on about how the top 10% pay nothing etc etc - laughable ignorance. I think these idiots really think you can run a welfare sttae and modern health service on every one being a public sector worker, small trader or craft beer entrepreneur. They are fecking muppets.

Yes, agree Rendel. It's not just the quality of the opposition it's the physical nature of those teams and encounters which will stretch England and disadvantage them in the KO stages (if they get there, unlike last time :)).

    they could also do without West Ham away in the last couple of weeks of the season if history is anything to go by :)

    it is utterly beyond me how Corbyn can go on - I don't think there's any particular love for May but people are just looking at the choice...and making the right decision in my view,
  15. Be warned Loz, because I know you're not, but quoting Chomsky is up there as one of my flags for 'this is an idiot' alongside sharing links with The Canary or AAV :)
  16. Borky - Borks...he held out a fair while this time. I've missed The stalinist sweaty.

The EU isn't our mum and we pay a lot of rent. Let's stick to some grown up analysis maybe?

May is acting in her party's interest over the country and being a bit histrionic - but really your benign view of the EU doesn't bear up to much scrutiny. This whole episode started because that lush Luxembourger leaked very disparaging remarks about May and the UK negotiations and then out of the blue the bill went up. Personally I think she'd had been far better with dignified silence but the EU acting with some class? No fooking way.

I don't think we'll stop your momentum this year to be honest - of course if we hadn't conceded 2 goals in the last 2 minutes at WHL both of our seasons would be over now whereas we both need a result!

Even I was a bit embarrassed by the coverage we got, but wasn't practically everything else (relegation/Champions/Champions league etc) settled by then so the media had a bit of an overkill? - the club also produced some decent 'content' (yuk) in terms of films etc - pity they aren't as good at buying players :( PS Plus a little bit of old school shenanigans to finish the day off - not sure Spurs will get 20,000- 30,000 showing up without tickets but just to say goodbye
