@PillWandering @tobycarvery I wasn't expecting £1 but for a family with 2 teenagers it costs alot also, if they can do £1 for adults surely they can do £4 for under 16s that are still at school, more parents could afford to go toby carvery which inturn raises revenue

Kids eat for a £1 at @tobycarvery under 12 though, what about kids 12-16?
Kids eat for £1 should be under 16 not under 12, costs a lot for families to feed 12-16 year olds also

So his 10 months quote is absolute fiction, but aside from that; there's one set of onshore oil licenses that have been grandfathered in by Greenland gov't - 2.1 million acres in the Jameson Basin - and $GLND set to earn into 70% of that with two fully funded wells this fall.

Jeff Landry: "Greenland needs a deal. Greenland could be exporting 2 million barrels of oil a day right now. Think about what kind of pressure that would relieve in the Strait of Hormuz, what kind of leverage that would give America ... it's time for the Danes to come to the table and let's get a deal done"

@GBPolitcs @theboyjai I assume paid for by the taxpayers, I wonder if I went to my employer and asked for weeks off due to burnout I wonder what they would say?

@christiancalgie He's clamouring for voters and then when he gets elected he will renege on everything, #liebour

@Alexandr4Denman @AntiTory999 Yes. Lying socialists dragging people into this without a mandate and lying about their motives.

@Artemisfornow “The final stage of control is not chains or soldiers it is a barcode attached to every citizen while they still believe they are free.”

@giles_will3785 @CharlieM_OBE The economy is in its arse mate all thanks to the incompetence of Rachel Reeves
English

@siborg76 @CharlieM_OBE Lmao, no pleasing some people. There’s no fudge, you are just trying to cope with the fact the economy is actually starting to grow again after 14 years of failed economic experiments…

@weare_stoke We could have Haaland and he wouldn't score at Stoke. Strikers are starved of service here.
English

@giles_will3785 @CharlieM_OBE They fudge the figures to suit, unemployment is up....companies going bankrupt, tax burden is the highest it's ever been, gilts are the highest ever been so you live in your little bubble and I will live in the real world. Labour are killing the economy
English

@siborg76 @CharlieM_OBE I rattled off a load of facts, but never mind, I must be deluded by living in reality….
English

@siborg76 @CharlieM_OBE ensured inflation is down, gdp growing faster than predicted, nhs waiting times down, fuel tax frozen, triple lock secured, increase in defence spending, net migration down dramatically. But let’s not hark on about Labour achievements.… no pleasing some….

HS2. A masterclass in how Britain destroys money.
The cost:
• 2011: £32.7bn
• 2013: £45bn
• 2015: £55.7bn
• 2019: up to £88bn
• 2020: up to £106bn
• 2026: up to £102.7bn… for a fraction of the original route
What’s been cut along the way:
• 2021: Eastern leg to Leeds: SCRAPPED
• 2022: Golborne link to Scotland: SCRAPPED
• 2023: Birmingham → Manchester leg: SCRAPPED
• 2023: Crewe hub: SCRAPPED
• Euston terminus: paused, downsized from 10 platforms to 6, now needs private finance
Original plan: 11 cities, 340 miles, £32bn, open 2026.
What we’re getting: 4 stations, 140 miles, £100bn+, open 2039.
A national embarrassment, paid for by taxpayers.

Dear Rachel,
Here's the reality....
Last year I had 2 new tyres fitted to my van - £126.
Today I had two new tyres fitted to the same van, same garage, same make of tyre - £165.
30% increase in one year.
Diesel is up 35% since a couple of months ago.
My van insurers want an extra £120 this year.
I'm a Decorator and all the paint I use has had TWO price increases each year for the past few years.
Some now costs approximately TWICE what it cost 6 years ago.
Some trade paint is now over £100 for 5 litres. Yes it's better than cheap crap but that's a ridiculous price.
But I'm just one bloke trying to earn a living.
Millions are in the same boat as me.
They can give you stories about the price of timber, plasterboard, electrical fittings, roof tiles and everything else they have to buy.
Everything appears to be getting more difficult for everyone.
In years gone by we didn't all have to worry about the cost of putting the heating on or how much we paid for the water that came out of our taps. We do now.
We didn't have to search the shelves in the supermarkets for the cheapest (inferior) alternatives and we didn't get utterly ripped off when paying for parking in town centres.
Our Council Tax bills, (or Rates as it used to be called), were equal to a small proportion of our income. And we got the bins emptied every week.
We could actually buy rounds in the pub - Remember THAT?
Many millions of people who frequented pubs can't afford to go there any more. Their village pub is probably shut now anyway.
Our public services are overstretched.
The NHS is ALWAYS on it's knees.
Our roads are falling to bits.
Parents can't get their kids into their local schools.
Many people in villages, towns and cities are frightened to go out alone (or at all) due the numbers of undesirables roaming the streets and our parks.
But it's OK. We're the Worlds 5th largest economy apparently and therefore a "rich" country compared to many.
Perhaps that's why we can afford to give away ONE THOUSAND MILLION POUNDS every MONTH to countries who don't share our good fortune, or our wonderful public services or our national contentment in knowing we're nearly at the top of the tree.
Is it any wonder that hundreds of thousands of people are just saying "bollocks to this" and either stopping work or buggering off to live somewhere else?
My advice to any young person would be - Go! It might not work out for you but at least you've had a try, probably had some fun, learnt a lot about yourself and the World and maybe met someone you can share your life with.
You can always come back again and help the local council empty the bins every 3 weeks.
