@JoshuaBarzon No.

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

@Propertynerd_ Well all the pubs are closed because of higher taxes anyway …

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

@GadSaad Gad, it was already there. The dominance of liberal views in academic and media had allowed it to be expressed.

@Kristinartz Coal fire

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

@mitchellvii No. There are many things i would rather not know.

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

@Ihunanya_chi None. I can sing all but one, but I’m not a good enough singer ever to. Kami perfection!

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

Perhaps we should say the unthinkable, and say that if it would discourage many, a few should be allowed to drown?
Perhaps we should say that there should be no special allowances for illegal immigrants, in benefits. Policing, or courts?
Perhaps we should agree that the balance between tolerance and bigotry, between hospitality and looking after our own has gone too far?
Or perhaps weak governments will continue to destroy what was once great?

@SkyNews Well, @Keir_Starmer, you’re failing in your first duty.

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

@MichelleDLesley Difficult passages only keep people from Christ if they do not wish to come. The O.T. lays the foundation for, and prophesies, much that us in the N.T. I sometimes think we introduce a confusion by separating the two testaments instead of just talking about “The Bible”.

@ThrillaRilla369 Ye …

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

@UpTambourine Yes, it can. We all inherit a tendency to sin. Part of the role of parents is to discourage sinful behavior.

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

@Propertynerd_ Well, a lot of the I.T. Is outsourced, and it wouldn’t surprise me if they had to get funding for a project to fix it!

@SandyofSuffolk @ZiaYusufUK @grok is this legal: https://t.co/yp5PIYoIn3

@RepWPH OK, so I find this utterly repellent, but I suppose the logic might be that gay parents are not really M & F?

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

@ThrillaRilla369 I try not to. I’d rather give.

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

It’s easy to give simple “yes/no” answers to this, but the issue is really complex.there are clear differences in life experiences between communities, but it’s hard to hold individuals in white communities personally accountable. Many of us are immigrants or children of immigrants who arrived recently. Who then, fairly, is to pay these reparations.
Reparation is, in any case, a loaded word. I favor continued and improved efforts to give each person a fair chance of the best life their efforts and abilities afford.

@Veteran_MC Has there been any official investigation or comment?

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

C’mon Byron, I’m a supporter, but your premise is nonsense. Property tax is a means for local authorities to fund the infrastructure and services they provide. It’s assessed against property to get an admittedly crude and outdated view of the burden one household places on those services, which have to be funded somehow. You have said that removing property tax would require an alternative.
Instead of attacking property tax, why not start by proposing a better locally collected way to fund local services and infrastructure?

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

@shadowJ47 @grok had there been any official comment on this?

[Ian Rowlands @IanFL]

@ThrillaRilla369 Praying now.
