At a time of Brexit chaos, a divided government, PM leaving before the next election, rising knife crime, rising homelessness, increased racism, NHS crisis, and yet Labour still cannot command a decent lead in the polls. Corbyn is at his lowest rating since 2017 and Labour are about a point...

Hindsight is a wonderful thing! So let’s celebrate it! In hindsight..... maybe Cameron shouldn’t have offered a vote on Brexit.

Sobering to read about the increase of poverty in the UK. Figures from the Trussel Trust show that in the year to March 2018, 1,332,952 three-day emergency food supplies were delivered to people in crisis across the UK – a 13 per cent increase on last year. This marks a considerably higher...

Good article this. Far better than the nonsense from a typical pundit. I heard ex Liverpool player saying our defence can be exploited. Well that’s not what the stats say. Get a load of this...

There’s a lot of talk about Labour renationalising rail, water and mail. I believe the rail network is in public control and the idea would be to wait for rail franchises to run out and then not renew. It’s hard to imagine with the pressure in the NHS and education alone for this to be feasible...

There’s loads of top City podcasts including @BlueMoonPodcast, which is excellent, Citywatch and 93:20 pod. Sadly Pale Azure hasn’t materialised for the new season. Have we seen the last of it?

Didn’t see a thread for this. Great show. How mean making them do a chocolate collar cake in super hot weather! Anyone else watching or just me?

Currently watching the BBC documentary about ordinary, everyday drinking and it’s affects. Adrian Chiles is the presenter. Really interesting. Recommended weekly allowance is equivalent to 7 pints. I reckon I’m 6-8 pints an average week. I rarely drink Monday to Thursday unless I’m watching City...

Firstly I want to say that these starting salaries are good compared to many professions however the comparison is interesting. Public sector pay since the Tories came to power in 2010: Police starting salary 2010: £24,000 2018: £23,000 Newly qualified teacher salary 2010: £21,500...

What’s happened to Blue Tuesday/Sport at 6? Doesn’t seem to be downloadable on ITunes or on the BBC radio app?

So left my job where I was commuting 16 hours plus a week. First thing I promised myself I’d do is buy some decent running shoes and join a running club. Having not run for years and it’s been tough but I’ve done 2 5 mile runs and a 5.7 mile. The latter was pretty tough with several hills...

A good friend of mine went to prison this week. He probably deserved it to be honest within the parameters of what the judge had. It was still sad still that a moment of madness at a time of some significant problems, led to prison. I’m determined to help as much as I can. He’ll be punished...

Hi we have a very small business. Looking for a CRM ideally with free features: workflow tracks website traffic links to mail chimp or can do similar email campaigns to track opens website links. Would like to be free or very cheap. We do Mac based work. Rather have recommendations that...

Are they the band you wanted the Stone Roses to be? Did they just fall short of greatness? I used to like some of their songs but the older I get the more I like them. How about you?

Parked in a field to go to Putsborough beach today. £8.50 per car. Jam packed. Must have made minimum of 5 grand. Is that the easiest way to make money?

So far the World Cup coverage seems to be a Danny Mills free zone. Long may it continue!

My gran was called Melita. Only person I knew with that name. Still think about her a lot. What was your Gran/Nan/Grandma’s first name?

Cards on the table I’ve never bought it and never will. The recent stories about Sterling seem, in my opinion, seem to be the persecution of a young black English player. I’ve not read the article and don’t intend to. They seem to have no moral compass whatsoever. So would you ban The Sun...
