trousers Posted 13 February, 2020 Share Posted 13 February, 2020 (edited) didnt know that. Hopefully he puts a massive tax surcharge on anything with the name of Portsmouth inHow about a retrospective claw back of all taxes evaded by football clubs in Portsmouth anytime over the last, say, 12 years? That said, the current football club that plays at fratton park is only 8 years old so not sure if he'll be able to enact this policy for a certain football club that evaded millions in tax but no longer exists...

Alanh Posted 13 February, 2020 Share Posted 13 February, 2020 Thats the real story. An unelected advisor is now effectively dictating who can be a minister. Correct, Sunak's a puppet. He toed the line and parrotted the 'get Brexit done', 'Level up' catchphrases well enough during the election campaign to demonstrate that he is a nicely pliable character who will do exactly what he is told by Cummings.

Unlikely. The thinking is that Javid got the chop because he was unwilling to support higher government spending on levelling up poorer areas and regions. If anything, this appointment means more, not less money for postcodes like PO. Edited 13 February, 2020 by shurlock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned it in the Labour leadership thread because it was the main news item about the Labour leadership yesterday. Not exactly shoehorning talking about Labour leadership candidates in a thread about the Labour leadership. Maybe just stick to replying to comments in the actual thread they are made rather than irrelevant comments dragged in about other topics?
