Black guardsmen and Asian ladies in waiting. On The Odyssey, saw it last weekend, enjoyed it, three hours didn’t drag but I can’t quite understand the massive love in for the film.

Not a film and not ruined, but Wolf Hall, series 2.

a) How would you know? and b) I just did. I'm just making a point.

Possibly, the fairest system of all. Everybody benefits from local government so everybody (of working age) should pay. I understand this won't happen of course, the government will be trying to squeeze more money out of those who can afford it.

And you don't get any extra local government services by having a larger (more expensive) property.

No relevance at all, just my poor attempt at humour.

Amazing how much loose change you can find in the back of the sofa.

Can’t agree with that. Anyway, this has nothing to do with our new PM, not sure why Farage needed to be brought into the discussion. (I know it wasn’t you Farmer)

Desperate stuff there Farmer.

Also nice

You made one innocuous and reasonable comment and then there was a massive pile on by ‘centrists’, quite funny really

Nice

The HMRC accepts donations Gary.

Struck 21 times with a hammer, sickening.

Her ‘date’ was a guy who later worked for the Tory party, they met again several years later in the HoC.

And I was talking specifically about WFH in the recent heatwave. It is certainly convenient to WFH if you have a medical appointment or have workmen at home etc. Personally, I much prefer to be in the office.

Me too please Turkish. I can't understand why some people can get so upset by a few footie rumours, just take it with a pinch of salt. I have to say, I didn't really pay much attention to the CoT thread, the clues were too cryptic for a thicko like me, I guess that's why I'm not allowed a vote.

Just read on BBC website that the odious little ginger Argie sub who provoked Belligham at full-time is a transfer target for Chelsea. That would give them two of the little wankers.

What does amaze me is how many people WFH in recent weeks when we've had this heat wave. We are lucky enough to have really good AC in the office and some people choose to WFH in an oven, they can't be working efficiently.

Our two IT personnel WFH today and I need a workstation set up.

Someone’s been watching too much Downton Abbey

Will he get his own dugout in the Commons?

Certainly not, and never have been, although not sure I've ever had the option working in my industry and relatively small companies.

He certainly wouldn't be happy I started it, if you're not allowed a vote then you shouldn't be allowed to start forum threads either! I think he's retired from The Lounge anyway.

Well somebody had to do it! Hope he makes a better job of it than Starmer.
