Talk plain sense will you and quit this jibberish. I never assumed anything, we all know they were unprepared to had the role over - though quite how that relates to an applicant that didn't know what the job is, I'm not sure.Just a reminder that you assumed the defeated councillor was "Not very community minded". Where was that said?
How can you "get over" Brexit? You did it, own it. You were wrong about how threatening to walk away with no deal would mean we got a good deal (from your vast negotiating experience).Seems like you are another who needs to start 'getting over it' (and perhaps yourself)
and some are just professional - professional racists
Is that what you'd call Labournomics ?Didn't you read?
£50m loan. Only £30m had to be paid back.
So if they could do that with another £500m of debt by selling other investments that would be what? £200m profit?
Is that what you'd call Labournomics ?
Is the chancellor going to use use it ?
Lose 40% of the initial taxpayer funding, but call that loss a profit......?
A profit would be where the whole initial sum plus interest had been returned, and the coucil had managed a return for itself.
If the party in control of that situation had any colour rosette, other than red, you'd be all over it !
Sounds more like the taxpayers saving a 114 from a council, because losing £20 million is cheaper than bailing out said council.... You know, the way insolvencies work, you get back pence on the pound.Council had a £50m loan (from taxpayers if you will). Invested money. Income from property for several years, interest paid to "taxpayers". Property sold. "Taxpayers" offer a discount to have loan back early so they can make more money loaning it out again at higher rates. Council (Council's Taxpayers) quids in. Sounds just like the way capitalism works.
morning from the hospital bed.I think that message would have been quite simple....
"Look at the Government you have today and what they're [not] achieving and delivering, same for your local councils" and yes there will some immigration possibly racist comments, but they were hardly a hard act to follow were they?
I have no doubt they will not be the success they promised, but sadly, that says all that can be said about British Politics today.
The results are evident and right there under your nose.
Morning hope you're well on course to a full recovery.morning from the hospital bed.
Absolutely no one in the country will be happy with everything that a government of any persuasion will come up with. It is all a compromise, and different voters will put different issues in levels of importance. But it is easy for the Reform mob to promise the world without actually ever needing to deliver. We saw just this in 2016 after the referendum. The bizarre thing is any voter actually gives them any credence after the shitshow that took place after the referendum. Giving them a vote is nothing short of political lunacy.
You’d imagine in this scenario, the company would put a pre-requisite that an HGV or similar licence is needed?So, it will be OK because someone who applies for a job as a truck driver, gets the job and asks how to drive as he has only ridden a push bike? On the job training? Hand over?
If the Rwanda plan is your "go to" for an example of why we are in a mess, then I think that shows a certain naivety It was estimated to cost £200000 per asylum seeker and was limited in numbers. So merely a populist policy to assuage the RW and racists.Morning hope you're well on course to a full recovery.
You won't be surprised but I am compelled to disagree but..... as I stated the state of the country really is so bad, just look back over the last 40 years and there has been in a continuous downward spiral, getting worse year on year. Tories or Labour, neither party capable or recognising some of the good work their predecessors have done, instead they prefer to spend or waste Billions on unpicking and back tracking - The Rwanda deal is an absolute classic example. Tories introduced it at great cost and up front investment then Labour come along and throw the whole lot in the bin and then.... start talking about a "hub system", which lets be honest isn't a million miles away from the Rwanda scheme. The major impact is they have to start from scratch and invest more millions at the concept/design stage ..... it really is unbelievable
That is a classic example of why millions of people are pissed off with both the main parties and politics in particular. But i do find it disingenuous of you saying to giving then a vote is political lunacy... for some there is just no alternative... so et the lunatics take over the asylum... they cannot do any worse (or so people may think)
Ridiculous analogy, do you think new MP's just rack up and sit on the benches without an induction course. A truck driver will obviously have the requirements of the job.So, it will be OK because someone who applies for a job as a truck driver, gets the job and asks how to drive as he has only ridden a push bike? On the job training? Hand over?

"Taxpayers" offered loans at the low interest rates the Tories had inherited from Labour. You surely can't complain if a Labour council then starts cashing in by paying back loans early so "Taxpayers" can relend the money at the much higher interest rates caused by Tory budgets.Sounds more like the taxpayers saving a 114 from a council, because losing £20 million is cheaper than bailing out said council.... You know, the way insolvencies work, you get back pence on the pound.
But to you Rachel's £22 billion black hole is a massive profit...
Why don't you understand the loss of £20 million of taxpayers cash, because I'm fairly positive you would if the council was anything but Labour."Taxpayers" offered loans at the low interest rates the Tories had inherited from Labour. You surely can't complain if a Labour council then starts cashing in by paying back loans early so "Taxpayers" can relend the money at the much higher interest rates caused by Tory budgets.
Why don't capitalists understand market forces?
I think that's nonsense. 1997-2010 was a golden age, only a capitalist crash ruined it. (And a war or two)Morning hope you're well on course to a full recovery.
