You going to answer my questions, darling?

As ever with the usual suspects, they struggle with detail, context, accuracy and nuance.

Does this account for inflation of gold? The value of gold has outstripped wages massively over that timeframe. Since 1995 UK wages have risen 150%, gold has risen 1200%. Again, with no context everything you post means nothing.

You not going to answer my questions then Osvaldo, again? This week has not gone well for you on this forum has it? And that's a low bar to start from.

Also, where did I mention the EU...I'll wait for your answer on this one.

Sorry, I should have said it's not unduly affecting economic growth - I dumbed it down for you. So do you think without the increase in bond yields we'd see Labour doing significantly better with it's economic growth then?

Ok, so that number is made up of: - Unemployment Benefits - Too sick to Work Benefits - Housing Benefits - PIP So Osvaldo was wrong then. Perhaps a bit more detail needed from him in future. The problem is benefits used to be assessed a lot more closely - but those checks were removed during austerity unfortunately. Perhaps we need to reintroduce them, and increase the size of the civil service to do that.

Alright Soggy, making people up to fit your argument 😂

The article is behind a paywall - I was hoping they'd reference their sources for the statistics as they usually would, but unfortunately can't get to it. Maybe Osvaldo can post the full article so we can see it.

Where have I mentioned the EU? Bond yield is not good, I agree, but it's still not affecting the economy. £3trillion debt is kind of irrelevant - it should always be done as a percentage of GDP: G7 Country Government Debt (% of GDP) Japan 214.49% – 236.66% Italy 135.33% – 137.10% United States 122.27% – 123.70% France 113.11% – 115.60% Canada 110.02% United Kingdom 99.90% Germany 63.50% – 63.89%

It's wrong. Max is £843 a month for a single person. Find us another source that says it's £2k per month.

Interesting...

Not in Emery's eyes at the moment.

I have a friend who works at Villa - they were expecting him to be much better than he is. He is not an upgrade on Mings and that is a big issue.

Rupert Grint was a pure blood I think you'll find...

It may get mentioned this season, yeah, but it's not career defining in any way. Let's see if it's mentioned in 10 years time by everyone.

Every time I wander onto this board you seem to be crying about it though. Goes against your attempts to be the hard man of the forum. We'll have to agree to disagree - I think he's young enough and the infraction moderate enough that people will forget about it though.

No-one will give a fuck now anyway as the Man City cheating scandal will massively overshadow this going forward. Stop worrying about it, it'll be fine.

Christ, that'd be a nightmare. I think the issue is they fancy me. I don't blame them TBH.

Very odd behaviour, I've never really noticed him until recently, but only noticed him because he just comes on here to try and be a hardman and shout insults at me 😂

Blimey, been drinking on a Sunday night have we? Yes, should have checked the phone autocorrect for "park" I agree. No poncey parents here unfortunately, not sure why you've assumed that. Grew up in a standard semi on outskirts of Southampton, so no privilege here, apart from being white of course and born into a first world country. Anyway, I hope you had a lovely evening, and I hope your kids and wife weren't subjected to this anger. At least with you being angry on the internet I'm providing a service to your unfortunate family. Don't drink kids!

I see we still have a lot of pussies on this forum! Dark day in our history 😂 It was a bit shit but fucking hell, who died? Acting like it's Heysel.

Genuinely - I've never seen assists like Azaz's outside of Messi. I'm obviously not saying he is anything like the talent of Messi, but the weight of balls, the softness of the bounces and the spin he puts on it. He is different.

Shame he's a Wet Spam fan in real life. Went to see his stand up earlier this year, was very decent actually.
