Plenty working class people save up and sacrifice all sorts to give their kids an upbringing they never could have. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no, not really. He went to the "fee paying school" before it was a fee paying school. Whilst he was there it changed status and his family didn't have to pay fees. He went to the University of Leeds before Oxford. Face it, dude. He's as working class as Dick van Dyke in Mary Poppins. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiegoDiego Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Bizarrely, May seems a better politician now as a backbencher than before and in office. Maybe when they stop climbing the greasy pole they actually start focusing on what they are there to do. Honestly, if I was a Peter Manyon-esque MP and found myself in a position to be de facto head of state, I'm not sure I'd be saying "thanks but no thanks". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Through horrendous mismanagement she's run up a deficit that's 22% of gdp which is beyond insolvent.

To quote from the UK Govt website. UK general government gross debt was £2,223.0 billion at the end of the financial year ending March 2021, equivalent to 103.6% of gross domestic product (GDP). UK general government deficit (or net borrowing) was £323.9 billion in the financial year ending March 2021, equivalent to 15.1% of GDP. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As any sensible commentator would acknowledge, Scotland doesn't have a national deficit as such. It has a "notional" deficit. This is unfortunately not a comprehensible distinction for the average britnat double figure IQ. The UK apportions a share of its debt to Scotland. This is then added to GERs figures that have never been designed to represent the economy of an independent Scotland. There is simply currently no way to determine an iScotland's fiscal state. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caledonian1 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 and then all of a sudden it all made sense.............. "“The Chelsea flower show, the opera, churches, a Momentum fundraiser, Peppa Pig World …” The former Sun journalist Matt Quinton lists the places he and his colleagues found cocaine traces while working undercover for the newspaper. “Peppa Pig World was unexpected,” he says. The most shocking place Quinton found cocaine? A toilet that was only accessible to NHS staff. Because these exposés were popular with readers, and cheap to put together, Quinton or his colleagues would be sent out by editors to swab pretty much anywhere." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 15% UK debt is exacerbated by the cost of covid and bailing out Sturgeon's calamitous SG every year, but they can raise the money on capital markets via debt instruments that are not crippling as the UK is a reliable payer. iScotland would have to borrow at a much higher interest rate and against a start up currency that would likely collapse quickly against sterling upon trading. You buffoons have no clue regards the extremely painful financial and economic correction an iScotland would visit on the Scottish people and it's most vulnerable members, you don't actually care truth be told. Sturgeon thinks she is the boss ordering new shutdowns but she isn't the one bearing the cost and if she ever had to find the money to pay the bills herself she'd run for her fat pension retirement home faster than you can say Scots Wha Hae. -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
