The Starmer Years - Can The New Broom Sweep Clean?
Lord Duckhunter replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
Fucking hell, if they’re not beating voters up, they’re insulting them. The nasty party… -
I’m pretty sure you can use 3 years of unused allowance. I think you can also pay into your partners pension if they have any unused allowance as well.

“Prisoners”, I think the word is hostages.

“Hamas starved him and left him with no knowledge of what they did to his young girls, wife and brother.” “He found out today”. “his mother and his sister comforting him.”

I’m not against the odd son-in-law or touch players that mince a bit. Tadic was sublime at times. But you can be “weedier” and have mental toughness and character, just as some physically strong players can go missing when the chips are down. We’ve had a weak mentality since Ralph went soft in the latter third of his spell. The culture is too Noddy for me, and the results are there for all to see. The likes of Downes, just enhance a culture that already exists.

Get rid. Fucking weak mentality. Players like him and Smallbone are one of the reasons I want Ivan to stay. The last thing we want is another bloke coming in putting their arm round these twats and rehabilitating them. We need a culture change, kick the son in laws out, and get some gypsies & pirates in.

It’ll all depend on the next 4 years. There’s no doubt Rachael from accounts will have to come back for more taxes as the party won’t stomach the alternative of real cuts, then the state of public services will play a major part of the next election. If Labour somehow do manage to make a noticeable difference to them, then I think the public will accept the European model of higher taxation for better services. What they won’t accept is higher taxation for the status quo, or tiny insignificant improvements. Personally, I think this bunch of amateur’s will do real damage to the “higher taxes/better services” side of the argument as we will have higher taxes and worse services come 2029, but only time will tell. But it won’t be taxation that pushes Reform to the next level, it’ll be immigration, foreign aid and the costs/ social impacts of that. Saying cut foreign aid to lower your taxes will enable opponents to portray you as the “nasty party”. Cut foreign aid to look after our pensioners/ poor / vulnerable, quite a different argument. Vote leave didn’t put “let’s leave the EU & use the £350m to cut your taxes”. I doubt if Nigel will let the party be portrayed as Thatcherite, even though “he’” is. He’ll try the Lib Dem trick of being all things to all men in different constituencies , and until they hit the reality of Government and face their own tuition fee moment ,it may work. They all pretty much do that anyway with all their manifesto’s being “fully costed”.

Yeah, all that love for Lego, and he hasn’t got a clue who the fuck you are….

How is that any different than any other party? In opposition Labour were going to maintain winter fuel allowance, not increase NI, compensate the Waspi birds, freeze council tax, knock £300 off our energy bills, all without increasing our taxes & delivering growth. If that’s not “something for nothing” I don’t know what is. None of the establishment parties were straight with the British people, none of their promises were “fully costed”, to try and claim Reform are the only people promising something for nothing is delusional…

If you believe it’s just oldies, you’re in for a big shock come the next election.

Terrorist Attacks - WARNING: CONTAINS DISTRESSING IMAGES

It’s a complete mystery 😂 -
Arteta has won the same as Arsenal manager as we have in over 100 years. Makes me laugh, people taking the piss out of Arsenal & Newcastle when we’ve got Nods saying Adam Armstrong gave them their greatest footballing day… The last 10 years only Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City & Liverpool have won the league cup, so its a difficult trophy to win, certainly harder than the JPT.

Surely if there’s doubt, the accused should be acquitted.

Amazing that a KC needs a voice coach so badly that she traveled during lockdown (from a different tier) to “coach” him in person on Xmas eve. That’s dedication …😂😂 -
Agreed, and we will be rid of that ridiculous “Arma” pony from the club as well. Fucking Noddy

Yeah agreed. Fulham reserves, probably a better fit.
-
Even when you get 2 top teams and players playing Lego ball it’s fucking boring. Pass, pass, pass, it’s fucking tedious….
-
Fucking joke. The arrogance of doing that in the first couple of mins got what it deserved. Luckily, it seems to be going out of fashion.
-
I agree, with one slight doubt. He’ll be playing against deeper defences next season, can he break them down without the space in behind?
-
You’re probably right, my memory plays tricks with me and games merge into each other. You defo need converted full backs, like Walker/ Pearce or centre halves that can or have played full backs in those wide roles. Conte used Barzagli and Chiellini, both centre halves but capable of slipping into full backs. THB looks too much like a centre half to me, no surprise that he keeps getting done in the wider areas and defends too face on. His lack of pace is also a problem. Whilst Bree isn’t exactly rapid, his full back brain helps him out. If he persists with this particular tactic, next season will be interesting because the central defender will need to be really strong as he’ll get battered about a bit without that much help, as the wider 2 will be further away than English defenders are used to. He’ll have to win that individual battle every game. Janny B got rinsed by Delap a bit yesterday, and whilst other strikers won’t be as good,they’ll be just as big a test physically.

Manning has been ok to be fair. Probably suffering because tactically he doesn’t fit in, but he’s done ok. Fraiser never had a chance once Ivan got a tune out of Sully, what’s annoying me is would Ivan have got more out of Edozie as well. Lego ball certainly stifled him.
-
He’s not getting a game because he’s bang average and Forest aren’t. Always been over rated by some on here.
