@kleinbeatsss You show me the average teenage boys room thatโs spotlessly tidy - even my teenage girls rooms are like this - itโs called organised mess and they know exactly where everything is ๐คฃ
So, I've just spent a bit of time looking into the debate on IHT and farming. I... got a shock. First, a note: I have a friend who runs a family farm. In his view, the whole thing is a something and nothing. ๐งต
No pressure boys but this is literally more tense than the time we tagged M&S after they sued us โฝ๏ธ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ #EURO2024#NEDENG
@annaturley Chuffed for you Anna - watching from across the border (Mbro) and had unsavoury dealings with your predecessor, looking forward to what you can bring to the area.
This is beautiful- made me cry and I donโt care who knows.

Well done @Wolves, Reepa and all those who support those affected.

@WoodyBrewer2011@drlouisenewson Same here, no energy and joints hurting so badly - from an active sports mad person to someone who can barely walk at times, I asked my GP recently for HRT to be told the same as you - Iโm too old at 58 and increase chance of breast cancer - so itโs heart disease for me then eh?
Dear Young People
I gather that some of you are feeling a bit pissy because you can't afford your dream home out of your wages. You are being told that it's all the fault of the Baby Boomer Generation somehow.
Let me clear that up for you.
When you get your payslip have a look at the deductions. You'll see income tax. And another deduction called National Insurance. These are just the beginning. The money that THE GOVERNMENT takes away from you before you even SEE your wages.
You'll see Council tax. And energy bills with VAT & greenscam subsidy taxes.
VAT is something you'll pay on most of the things you buy.
You will also pay taxes, levies & green subsidy costs on petrol and diesel fuel. You'll pay tobacco duty. Alcohol duty. And many, many other taxes.
You get taxed on what you earn, taxed on what you spend, taxed on what you save & when the time comes you will get taxed on what your parents try to leave to you.
Your biggest expense is government. Local, national & do not for a moment believe that you're not still paying the EU in countless little sneaky ways.
And on what is all your hard-earned, easy-go money spent?
Foreign aid to countries that hate us. This is partly boomerang money. A lot of it comes back to the people who send it out either through administration costs, charities or dodgy contracts. None of it comes back to YOU.
QUANGOs. There are thousands of these. They exist for two main purposes. Firstly as 'employment' opportunities for the pointless parasitic bureaucrats who run them. Also for politicians who have been voted out of office but need rewarding for the service they provided to the establishment. And secondly, QUANGOs provide convenient support for whatever bogus narrative the government is trying to push.
Charities. No such thing. They receive donations from the government (i.e. your taxes) & the money is spent on big salaries for board members. Any actual work done by the charity is done by volunteers for free.
Civil Service. An immense bureaucracy dedicated to the pay, perks, promotions & pensions of the bureaucrats. And it just keeps getting bigger & greedier.
The NHS. Another bureaucracy. A hospital is a large office building with some wards bolted on for the look of the thing. Bureaucrats include diversity, outreach, inclusion & equality staff who have absolutely nothing to do with healing the sick.
Education. This is one of the worst because of the sheer volume of lies that 'teachers' are telling. Lies about the climate, about race, about history & about the rules society should follow.
You can tar every government department with the same brush including the armed forces now. Bureaucracy has subsumed whatever purpose the departments originally had.
Another massive expense is the consequences of importing the third world into Britain. You have been told that this is a net benefit & the nation is enjoying the wonderful benefits of a dynamic and vibrant multicultural society.
That is a MASSIVE lie.
One other lie you've been continually fed. The one about 'having it all'. You can't. WE earned what we have and managed to keep it despite the rapacious assaults of overtaxing political bastards because we managed our money.
Money spent on the latest iPhone, another holiday in Spain, takeaway junk food every night, gym membership you don't use & designer handbags is money NOT spent on saving for a house. You are under relentless advertising pressure to have the latest, most fashionable & glitziest of so many things that you really don't need. Learn to resist.
In the end all your parents can do is advise you. And this is advice that is coming from people who are NOT politicians & corporations who want all your money for as little return as possible. We don't have celebrities advertising what we say. We can't afford them because we're not the ones robbing you to pay for stuff like that.
Think a little instead of automatically believing the bastards who are really stealing from you.
