  Good grief is that cunt still consuming oxygen? And the media ensures he’s kept well supplied with it 🙄

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Prospect of £5 pint leaves bitter taste for some pubgoers⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  A sizeable chunk of the price of a pint in a pub is taxes. Excise Duty + VAT - the VAT being applied after the Excise Duty, effectively taxing the tax. In addition many pubs are owned by “pub cos”, who force the tenants to buy from prescribed suppliers at inflated prices. The pub cos are really property companies, they care not if this means the pub business fails, they’ll just close and redevelop the building/site as something else. Like many other 🇬🇧 problems this has its roots in Thatcherism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Train crash Wales: Man dies, 15 in hospital, after collision⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Would that be the antiquated new digital system to stop trains? Or the antiquated leaves on the line? Or the antiquated steep incline at the location of the crash? Maybe we’ll wait for the RAIB investigation report rather than your wild guess.

  The UK government set a target for numbers of smart meters to be installed. It didn’t say that they needed to be working as smart meters. Nobody should be surprised by this.
