FPL addict, but in no need of a cure. My high point was the 2020/2021 season, a finish inside the top 2,000 (1,779) - but still like to believe I can do better

@Marafsol1 @Jenny_1884 And Jen is amongst the dumbest! Either that or gullible. Or both.

@themichaelgiles And I hope that if you need immediate lifesaving surgery and the only available surgeon is non- British the hospital is aware of your racist attitude.

@DarrenB22636770 @Jenny_1884 That's such a dumb simplistic statement. Do you have streetlights? A local library? Would the fire brigade turn out if you needed them?

@Jenny_1884 Now young people can work hard and still have no chance of getting on the property ladder. At least they needn't worry about furniture. I'm 56 and feel our generation has let down our children.

@Jenny_1884 The cost of moving lorries around the country to stock shelves has gone up hugely due to the price of diesel.

@JohnDru66252792 @Jenny_1884 Maybe lack of affordable housing.

Lack of job opportunities.

Thousands of £ worth of student debt.

I'm 56 and had none of them issues, I certainly wouldn't want to be a student now.

@Jenny_1884 Having heard stories from a soldier friend of his time in Kosovo, British soldiers were no saints. In fact, what he told me made me feel sick, and we are talking unarmed young women. I sure you can put two and two together.

@Jenny_1884 It is hard to believe. For all this cutting welfare targets this has been an open goal (albeit a relatively small amount) that no one will complain about.

@Jenny_1884 No, but whacked over the head by a punch of keys by our Physics teacher. He made sure he wasn't going to miss.

@Ursie27608090 Why advertise the fact that you are as thick as pig shit?

@northwales4u @Jenny_1884 Bed bugs aren't exclusive to beds...they can inhabit clothing, and unless you give them a boil wash they can survive and spread.

@Jenny_1884 As others point out, Sunak did exactly the same. You keep picking issues with Labour that have gone on for years under the Conservatives. I agree with you, it isn't right but it's nothing new.

@buttonbox21 @Jenny_1884 1970: Life expectancy for men was lower (around the high 60s to low 70s at birth).
Averages are never an exact science, but what is clear is that the average pension would have been claimed for 5 years (assuming death at 70), these days it's claimed for far longer.

@Kayleighgrant32 A vote for Reform is a thumbs up to racism. No thank you.

@Jenny_1884 Vegetarians have been eating fake shit for years, let them try it first.

@McnaughtStella @Jenny_1884 A lot of people don't have...and some will be lucky enough to have double those figures. Thats how averages work.

[norm @bloggerfpl]

@McnaughtStella @Jenny_1884 Remember they are averages, distorted by Elton John and dozens of other millionaires - in all age groups. But they are facts from the Office of National Statistics.

@AudreyBeaumont1 @Jenny_1884 Maybe this is why? Average wealth in the UK.
