@CreativeDeduct@mccourt_mccourt You’ll need to level out house prices then. A customer of mine was a teacher in a highly regarded state school. This was in an affluent area of Nottingham. He said parents who live in catchment area, in effect, pay for private/grammar education, through their house prices.
@mrdanwalker BBC has too much money & too much airtime to fill. Lots of ‘news’ speculation & unnecessary hype & fear. Drive for parity, even if no grounds. Petrol shortage 2022 a great example. Partly due to BBC reporting. Don’t even trust the weather. Doom-monger forecasting on @bbc5live
@sjcbristol@Peston With cretins like Long-Bailey & Richard Burgon, on his campaign trail, you can see what’s coming. Corbyn with a northern accent.
@undertakereddie@Jenny_1884 I’d suggest these houses were purchased many years ago, on the back of years working hard & paying taxes. Today, too many take out without ever contributing. The grafters are getting pi$$ed off with weak government sloshing money to those who’ve never paid in.
@ChrisGPackham I’m a fan of yours, Chris, but stick to wildlife. Successive governments, tossing away taxpayers money, exasperated by this socialist shitshow, is where the blame lies. What’s worse is Burnham might get elected ffs 🤦 for even more of same 🤮
@paullewismoney Always find it strange that the BBC hang off every word @MartinSLewis says, apart from his take on the ‘graduate tax’. His words…you could owe £50k or £1 million, it doesn’t matter. You’ll only pay 9% when you earn over X. Then it’ll be written off.
@NeilDotObrien@John_J_C_Moss Was self-employed for 20 years. Didn’t get paid when off sick. In that time I took the grand total of…zero days sick leave.
@JeremyBennett@paullewismoney Funny how the BBC worship every word Martin Lewis breathes. However, his take on student loans, exactly as you describe, doesn’t fit the narrative. Hence Paul & chums keep up the ‘student debt’ bollox.
@Jenny_1884 Me! Day after I left school at 16. Proud to have grafted, non stop, for 41 years. No plans to stop, health permitting. Need to keep one step ahead of this treacherous government…
