He is just hoping for some sort of miracle to happen, but it won't. I have never voted for anyone other than a Tory but I will not vote for this current fake version of the Tory party. I look at the amount of tax I pay every month and I still can't believe it.

It's an unfortunate fact that if you are in a war zone, you are at risk. There was obviously a mistake made by the IDF and they have held their hands up and admitted it. They will investigate what went wrong to ensure the chances of it happening again are reduced.
Once again, if the Palestinians want it to stop all they have to do is hand over the hostages. It's as simple as that.

As I said earlier, I believe Nigel Farage is just waiting for the election date to be announced, and he will become the leader of Reform. This will give them a huge bounce in the vote share, plus give them momentum in the lead-up to the election. Labour's huge lead could start to be reduced when they publish their manifesto. I think when their policies start to be scrutinized we'll see that they are also a busted flush. Labour will win the election though.

I thought you might say that. I watch neither, ever. One is "click bait" and one is horrendous. He says, without ever watching or listening to either. This is the rule that GB broke "A series of Ofcom investigations today concluded that five programmes on GB news featuring politicians acting as news presenters broke broadcasting due impartiality rules. Under the Broadcasting Code, news, in whatever form, must be presented with due impartiality. Additionally, a politician cannot be a newsreader, news interviewer or news reporter unless, exceptionally, there is editorial justification. In line with the right to freedom of expression, broadcasters have editorial freedom to offer audiences a wide range of programme formats, including using politicians to present current affairs or other non-news programmes. Politicians may also appear in broadcast news content as an interviewee or any other type of guest. Individual programmes can also feature a mix of news and non-news content and move between the two genres. If, however, a licensee chooses to use a politician as a presenter in a programme containing both news and current affairs content, it must take steps to ensure they do not act as a newsreader, news interviewer or news reporter in that programme" Surely the easiest and most sensible thing would be just to ban any serving politician from presenting or reporting on any news programme/channel right across the board. We pay these people enough for running the country, to be honest I don't think any serving politician should be allowed to have another job too. They're career politicians but also career any other pie they choose to stick their sticky fingers in. This problem has not been created by politicians fronting shows, but Ofcom trying to shape things to their own political viewpoint. Have you ever watched the news on Channel 4? That is so biased towards the left it is unreal, but Ofcom say it's ok because it is not fronted by politicians! They also tried to pin the same charges against Nigel Farage, until it was pointed out he is not a politician.

This is what it's like to go and watch Eintracht Frankfurt. The stadium is located outside of the city in the forest, but it is near the motorway, so car access is easy without any major queues. There are S-Bahn and Strassen Bahn connections to the stadium which most fans use. In the forest around the stadium are loads of beer and food stands, which are not expensive. There usually is a large amount of Police near the stadium. Inside the stadium the catering is all cash-free and you have to have a clubcard to purchase anything. There are people walking around the concourse giving these out so they are easy to obtain. You just have to 'load' some money on them. Beer is freely available, and even when you are sat in your seat there will be sellers walking around with a small beer kegs on their backs so you can get a beer without leaving your seat, although these beers can be a little expensive. Ticket prices for the Eintracht are not cheap though and they can be difficult to get for most games as they are usually a sell-out with the stadium holding approx. 50,000 people. My personal opinion is that the atmosphere can sometimes be a bit flat. I've been to Anfield a couple of times in the last year and I had to cup my hands and shout into the ear of the person sat next to me if I wanted to talk to them. At the Eintracht it's very easy to talk normally to the person sat next to you. To summarise: Easy to get in and out. Loads of beer and food available, but can be a bit pricey.....Oh, and I hate the fact they play music when the Eintracht score a goal. Good to hear it's a similar vibe in Frankfurt - surprised it's quiet though. My trips to Berlin, Magdeburg and Nuremburg have all been very noisy affairs... How much are the cheapest Eintracht tickets out of interest? Oh, and if Union ever played music after a goal there would be a riot in Kopenick. Although the Waldstadion was rebuilt for the World Cup in Germany it doesn't seem as though it was designed to 'make noise'. The singing from the Ultras always seems to be a 'distant' noise rather than in your face !

I am grateful for this. It exposed you as being an absolute w****r. Well done and carry on. Oldie. Have you ever thought about writing a book? Let's call it "How to make friends and influence others". It could be a bestseller.

Just to make my point. I listened to a very interesting interview with the Communications Workers Union, David Ward, today. Instead of the usual "it's all an attack on the workers" rhetoric he agreed that the Post Office cannot carry on as is and that he accepted changes to the service were required. He even said his union would consider 5 or even 3 day delivery cycles, as part of a broader consideration of the service offer. Sounds eminently sensible to me and his point that the Ofcom report was dead in the water because the Government have said they will not consider changes in delivery cycles at all was well made. His comments have been covered in The Standard today, link www.standard.co.uk/business/business-news/union-to-put-forward-its-own-report-on-future-of-royal-mail-b1134492.htmlWhich just shows you can offer an opinion with a link to information with clogging the forum with copy and pasting whole articles and in isolation. A good suggestion was made a coup!e of weeks ago......sell Royal Mail to Amazon for one pound. Have a good legal SLA/Charter. In no time at all we would have a good service that made a profit for someone. What we currently have is a service in decline with ever rising costs to the customer, and taxpayer. That cannot continue.

Oldie, calm down. I think this has gone over your head You think? What I read is numb nuts incapable of articulating a point No need for the name calling eh! Why do you do it? Instead of calling someone "numb nuts" why not just say "someone"? There really is no need for this is there. Maybe more people would engage on this forum if it were more civilized.

You'd rather people vote for the utter tripe you support? What doI support? Obviously not the Reform Party 😁. Can't see you being a Tory. That leaves either Labour, the Greens or Libdems.

Looking at the size of her I reckon the time it took her to get from the sofa to the front door probably meant she needed a snack ! Feel sorry for her moped. Blimey I got it wrong. She was the Deliveroo driver!!!!! Was this reported to the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Mopeds (RSPCM)?

Of course it has...her actions have impeded his ability to work,so therefore his income will be limited and as a result the strain on him will limit his ability to purchase things he may have been able to prior to this incident... 😂😂😂 What? So this thread is about the cost of living dictated by global energy prices, trade constraints and supply constraints to name but three. But you are saying this act of GBH is another causal factor.? Christ on a bike Oldie, calm down. I think this has gone over your head

BBC apologising for calling Reform 'far right',the BBC should be privatised this antiquated propaganda machine is not fit for purpose. Yeah. They really should have stuck with the obvious. "Really, really stupid" "I want my country back, because my mum said so" 😂😂😂 I mean really, what the hell. And people actually vote for this utter tripe. You'd rather people vote for the utter tripe you support?

Cost of living crisis? My Council Tax has just gone up by 215 quid! The cost to the customer is going up, and the service delivered is being cut. In the Private Sector this would just not be allowed to continue.

Um, no. This is the problem, it doesn't work like that. Ah, ok. I must have missed something. How does it work? There has been, and continues to be a bias against GB News. Sorry, but you cannot complain about politicians presenting on GB News, when Labour politicians presenting on LBC are left alone! It is obvious political bias. I neither watch GB News or listen to LBC as the last thing I ever want to hear is politicians of whatever persuasion prattling on, but I do believe in fairness, and we are not getting that from OFCOM.

And what about the Labour politicians on LBC?I Two weeks ago OFCOM were trying the same thing with Nigel Farage, until it was pointed out he is not a politician!I The left are desperate to shut down GB News. What a sad day that will be for free speech if it ever happens. Well, if LBC had broken the rules then Ofcom would be all over them. They obviously have not Um, no. This is the problem, it doesn't work like that.

You are saying that the UK should not impose these measures, yet you ignore the fact that it was the EU that first imposed them ! If it damages imports, then so be it. Maybe British firms can step up to fill the gaps eh! That's a false narrative. We, the UK, negotiated a new Trade Treaty after we left. Then we signed it. To the absolute detriment of UK business and consumers. Now you want to blame the EU. Right No, I'm not blaming anyone. I just don't understand why you think the UK should just open it's borders to goods from the EU, when the EU will not reciprocate. They didn't have to introduce those measures. They could have done the same as the UK and just 'carried on as before", but they didn't did they. The UK has proven that is was possible to "carry on as before". If the EU want to make it difficult for the UK to export into the EU then we should do the same. Maybe it will bring them to their senses.
