    Back on topic: A politician running for election was asked about his policy on alcohol. He answered, “If you mean the demon drink that poisons the body, ruins the mind, destroys the family and creates criminals, then I’m against it! But if you mean the beautiful drink used for a wedding...

    Read what I wrote - not what you think I wrote. I am thinking Starmer is less popular than Blair because he obtained far fewer votes. Nothing about winners or losers.

    I'm not - he was elected with fewer votes than Corbyn obtained in previous GE.

    Maybe to allay any suspicions of left-wing bias in the moderating team, perhaps you can explain why anti-Tory posts, like https://www.ukworkshop.co.uk/threads/joke-thread-4.143362/post-1747360 are acceptable yet those knocking the other side are not? Personally, I think they are all fair game...

    One has to be careful with political jokes - they sometimes get elected.

    I always look at Windsor Castle when I fly into Heathrow. You would have thought with all their money they would have built it away from the Heathrow flight path.

    Health Secretary:"People who are abusing NHS staff can be turned away, and should be turned away, if that is the way that they are treating our staff"

    Is this a left wing idea - it is a bit regressive? It is what many countries do - and end up with better results. Australia is the often quoted example. My concern would be that this lot would then want to stick IPT and VAT on top of the premium.

    Health Secretary:"People who are abusing NHS staff can be turned away, and should be turned away, if that is the way that they are treating our staff"

    Anyone who immediately threatens the safety of a worker, medical or otherwise, should be denied service to protect the worker - for so long as they continue to pose a threat to the worker. The Wes Streeting proposals, if accurately reported, would seem to fall foul of this on two counts - 1)...

    Any Snap-on experts on here

    Interesting - I buy the unchromed sockets for use with impact wrenches - for that use case the benefit is that there is no chrome to hammer off. But can anyone tell me why it is actually worth buying chromed sockets?

    No Fault Evictions

    Now it is reported that "hardship tests" may be applied before an eviction is allowed. All this will do is ensure that no-one will be able to rent a property without a rock-solid guarantor. As for those without one . . . it looks like getting your next home just got a whole lot harder. Nice...

    Winter fuel Payments.

    I am not saying what rate of pay increase is right or wrong - only that it is something she has done so is not part of some inherited black hole as she claims. Before the election the IFS said BOTH sides were being economical with the truth over the the forthcoming budget requirements. I have...

    Winter fuel Payments.

    Listening on radio this morning, over £9bn of the "black hole" is to cover the above inflation pay rises she has just granted. Another £6bn is to cover the costs of housing the migrants - esp now Rwanda scheme has been scrapped. Remember my second rule - there is no situation a politician...

    Labour's Employment Rights Bill

    I am not sure, despite their Momentum wing, that (New) Labour can be described as true socialists. They are still rubbish though - you can see the problems piling up already. Remember, there is no situation that a politician cannot make worse.
