    The NHS...2025.

    Part of the problem with the NHS is that people think of it as a single organisation when in reality it's a health system like any other. There's very little evidence that it's less efficient than other systems in Europe and it's administration costs are generally lower because it doesn't have...

    Grandson kicked off school trip for being absent due to tinnitus - Update P4

    Very harsh from the school to discriminate against a pupil on the basis of a health condition when that would be illegal in the workplace. Feels bizarre but maybe kids aren't afforded the same protections? Personally I wouldn't threaten to got to the press as it's a way of surrendering the...

    Bars in the Houses of Parliament.

    No it’s not. It’s a sensible way for MPs to maintain standards of conduct without placing excessive constraints on the way democratically elected representatives choose to discharge their duties.

    Bars in the Houses of Parliament.

    Pretty much every major business and organisation will have some form of standards, ethics or compliance system to monitor behaviour. The Commons has a Standards Committee because, as elected office holders rather than employees, the only people who can sanction or censure a Member is other...

    City’s New Kits

    I can well remember people in the 90s going on about how modern kits are shit and not like the pure simplicity of the 60s and 70s. Hence TOFFS and the like being set up then.

    Tino Livramento

    One of those £100m flops won three league titles in a row, a Champions League and was an integral part of a team which did the treble.

    Student Debt

    The reality remains that people who have completed higher education earn higher salaries than those who don't. If you don't earn a high salary you don't repay the debt so it's a pretty progressive system. There are ways the debt is calculated that could be reformed but fundamentally it's a fair...

    City’s New Kits

    The 20/21 home kit was good. A nod to a feature of Mancunian design and a reference to the 87-89 home kit.

    Kevin De Bruyne | Appreciation thread

    The did try and sign him and assumed they would for the fee of their choosing because Bayern (shareholder and sponsor Audi) were dealing with Wolfsburg (owner VW Group). Wolfsburg's Chairman pretty much said at the time they wanted to sell him to Bayern rather than City and would have accepted a...

    Vardy leaving Leicester after 13 years

    I like Lineker as well. Italia 90, Barcelona and all that. He's usually pretty generous about City.

    'THE KIPPAX' - Why are no Etihad stands called this?

    Because none of the stands at the Etihad are a terrace on the Kippax Street I suppose.

    Rubbish players that you loved?

    Very few shit players listed here. Increasingly, people refer to any time before 2010 as ‘when we were shit’ but it’s bollocks. There were some poor sides and dark days but we also had some great teams and excellent players as well. It’s a weird re-writing of history amongst our own...

    City Announces Global Partnership with Viagogo

    Asking people who have paid to watch the game not to watch the game because the 1894 group have decided that's how they want to protest isn't going to be very effective in its self. It may be the start of something bigger, but they protest needs more consultation and coordination with the...

    10/10 Player Performance Ratings

    KDB when we beat Spurs 4-1 at home in 2017 but it should have been 8 or 9. Any number of Silva performances. Villa at home Boxing Day 2010 was an early one.
