Expect so, while eating some cake.

boris is thinking if I'd have spaffed this much on the public I'd still be PM.

Just another average day on here lol. @steviewevieand @Ozanneshutting down any discussion with their usual pish and howls of 'Tory', getting called out for it, Ozanne pretending he has people on ignore and Stevie pretending he is putting people back on ignore. Always enjoyable to watch.

Sorry I had to quote your post as I have everyone on ignore and wanted to know if you were talking about me. Now you know I have everyone on ignore and I bet it eats at your very soul.

Mind you I could just use the boards as a guest 😜

Lots are but I don't think there is anything they can do.

If they challenged and won - we would be without government for another couple of months and things would get even wore.  And it would all but end any hope of re-election.

To be honest the best thing for the country right now is GE but we won't get that.

Yeah I agree that having months with no government again would not be ideal. I guess they'll just put up and shut up then?

TBH I wouldn't be surprised to see a U-turn on the mini budget. They say they won't but they say they always won't.

Maybe it will be Truss' big announcement during her conference speech.

I remember stories of the 2008 financial crash where they said government action taken by Brown/Darling had to be taken that October due to banks being hours from running out of money to fill cashpoints.

The fact it's being talked about in the same category as the collapse of Lehman Brothers and it nearly taking down the US financial services sector with it is not a good sign, either of the significance of the moment or the fact it's not even been a week since Kwarteng's statement to reach that stage.

This thread just can't go one day without it descending into a free-for-all huh. Bit like the covid threads did at times. Or Twitter on a daily fucking basis.

Plus it’s all our their own making, there’s an element of other crises that external factors played a part but this has none of that.

To convince your kid to turn the heating down this winter point out to them that they're paying for the Govt borrowing which is paying the heating bill.

Yeah you’d never be rude to anyone Stevie. You better calm down or you could be on route to a ban 👀 Hopefully a double whammy of you and ozanne 🤞

Kind of pathetic, even for you

Yet another post completely off topic and personal by him.

Fraybentos has prior of bullying people off this forum. He hounded Festival Jamie off the forum a couple of years ago and was given a warning by Neil for his actions. He’s not a nice person.
