Barry and George must never, ever be permitted to play one more minute for this Club after that. The lack of effort from both after coming on was sickening.

She sounds like an absolute gobshite

An inflation linked increase is entirely justifiable but mine is increasing 9.66% in the East Stand - over three times the current rate of inflation. Really poor from the Club.

Is there anyone who actually supports the doctors in this dispute any more?

I was referring to Green supporters as intolerant and nasty. That’s just based on my experience.

I know how intolerant and nasty they are.

It’s Polanski and the people in the movement that scares me as much as the policies.

Hopefully we’ll never find out what the Green Party would do in government.

Absolutely. Didn’t take a genius to figure that out.

These were all achieved incrementally. Not in one gung ho, forget the costs, big bang moment.

That’s fair - it’s therefore crucial that they steer clear of lying, divisive, populists like Polanski and Farage.

I don’t think that happened until 2010, although I wouldn’t call Cameron, Johnson or Truss ‘centrist’.

I don’t like to see people being gaslit by deeply unpleasant populists like the Greens and Reform.

I agree. But not everything that’s possible has no consequence. A degree of pragmatism is required. I like Mamdani but he’s been in office five minutes so too early to judge. In any case I felt his commitments to be sensibly limited.

I’m not particularly angry and certainly not defeatist. I do despise those who offer simplistic, unrealistic, half-baked solutions to very complicated problems though. Particularly when they know that’s what they’re doing and are also fully aware of the undesirable consequences of those solutions.

I’m strongly in favour of nationalisation in principle but I don’t like to pretend that it’s as easy as student politicians make out.

The word ‘tax’ is not mentioned in the article at any point. There is no reference at all as to how this will all be paid for. The wealth tax their creepy party leader has been espousing wouldn’t touch the sides of the commitments outlined in this article.

No it doesn’t help at all. Which taxes are we raising? And who is paying those increased taxes? Hannah doesn’t tell us. Nor have you.

Very predictably, Hannah lists a plethora of pledges in this article that would cost tens of billions of pounds to implement and at no point offers even the hint of a suggestion as to how any of it would be paid for.

Well said Wes Streeting.

That couldn’t be less what she said

Yes but the selfish BMA leaders are taking those places away - like I said, you can’t spend the same money twice. You either have the strikes and pay for the consequences or you have the training places. You cannot have both. The BMA never even put the latest offer to ballot before calling strikes!

No, it’s more like the money we were going to allocate to your deal will have to repurposed to manage the impact of your ridiculous strike (such as paying agency fees and overtime, rescheduling operations etc). You can’t use the same money twice!

No, the union rejected it without putting it to ballot

Ok, so if you were in charge we’d either let them go on perpetual strikes with no regard for patient care or we’d just pay them whatever they asked for with no regard to the cost? 🤷‍♂️

He’s being very lenient with them I’d say

Tricky times for the content creators, life coaches and right wing journalists who left Britain shrieking claims that it was becoming an authoritarian state

If we had a striker we’d have won that game easily. Basically playing with 10 men whichever striker you choose.

That’s basically an own goal

As if we needed any further confirmation that Polanski is a total bullshitter.
