Just proves how degenerate Westminster’s politicians are - imagine even that going through your head.

Don’t think it’s unreasonable to look to reduce the welfare budget we have and use those monies for something else (eg measures to increase employment or increasing spending on education). Other parties seem to have a strategy to maintain / increase these budgets to find favour with an ever increasing group of voters that benefit from the increases. An ever increasing welfare budget is not sustainable and is not a symptom of a healthy country.

Dobbin and matsuki have been anonymous

Started off well and then collapsed after Stephen’s cock up
-
Get Stephen and matsuki off - wood and Azaz on
-
Two stupid mistakes. Giving the ball away completely unnecessarily
-
So we have the same number of yellows as Watford!!!!!
-
How does Stephen’s get picked ahead of wood

Details will be interesting but it needs significant change. Agree with the comments around the current system comprising “suicidal empathy” and a “strange perversion of compassion”.

I know £17m is an opener but it’s a bit of a Michael take when we purchased him for £20m. £30m absolute minimum - I doubt they will stretch that far

George Kift and future of the academy
Sir Ralph replied to There when Franny scored's topic in The Saints
According to Wiki he was born in Poole but Chelsea took him but then he joined Saints at a young age as the commute was too much. So essentially a local lad Chelsea knabbed from the area originally. Agree on Amo-Ameyaw but I think the difference is Saints offered him a better pathway to first team football. My humble opinion is that stock piling talent is harmful to development so if a young player moves to city or Chelsea for £ or status that is potentially harmful. If they move for greater opportunity that’s a different matter -

Agree - they just take on as much talent as possible now as the costs are relatively low for the potential rewards. They dont care if for every 10 that fail one makes it but I wonder whether more would if they stuck to their original clubs. Jimmy Jay Morgan is a good example - left us and went to Chelsea, did nothing now succeding at WBA. Probably should have stayed with us -
Frankly this is all waffle that makes some posters feel good. I probably wouldn’t vote for Reform but out of interest, what was the objective in the past 7 posts?

He can’t lead a line - lack of physical dominance and never comes short to offer an option. my mate who I went to the world cup with is a derby ST holder. He said they should buy him as a left winger. We don’t need him there. Sell.

Got through. Sell Diaz buy another target man. Bragg looked good - has always looked class and in my opinion will go onto achieve big things

I always prefer to see two, rather than one

Diaz is absolutely terrible. Get him off
-
Peretz bloody brilliant

Reminds me of a very very very shite zidane the way he meanders around the pitch

What a ball. Diaz thinking about what he’s having for dinner again

Fair enough. It seems as though the system is broken. My wife knows people who don’t need the money claiming money for their kids having ADHD (and they don’t). Having quotas for decisions is wrong too if people genuinely are struggling. The problem it appears is that it’s easy for people to make things up about MH as it’s not visually apparent. That harms those in genuine need. Question is how do you address a system where people can make things up and get away with it as it’s not visually obvious. I don’t think the status quo works but not sure what the answer is. Many of us have had MH issues with work stress (I would say a decent of people that I know have or still do). However we carry on so I struggle to reconcile why many people are booked off. It does seem that the system needs to be tougher -

Point is there are tonnes of people milking the system and the system allows it as it’s too soft. GPs just sign people off as it’s the easy thing to do.
