Tell me about it. The fella has wet dreams about me on a night. Lol. He's another Greb that's why they click. Am believe it was more than a bottle of whisky he gave Scotty Greb. Unsettling behaviour.
Don't talk like a c**t.
Bangersanmash with schemes so thin,
Brains like shadows, not much within.
A goldfinch sings with brighter grace,
More wit contained in its tiny face.They bragged of plans at Redbecks’ door,
"Meet me there at half past four."
But truth was lost in a clumsy swap,
He skulked instead in Jay’s gun shop.Feathers laugh in morning’s light,
At clumsy minds that dodge the night.
For wisdom’s wing will always win—
A goldfinch outshines Bangers and kin.-

I'm currently in one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world. Every colour and creed you could think of. None of this fear mongering or paranoia, people just going about their business with not a care in the world.

I agree they have shifted, what I’m saying is that is a direct result of deliberate policy.
If women had been encouraged to have more children instead of encouraged to have a “career” then they would be having more children.
Imho it’s no accident that this decades old promotion of “the career woman” has gone hand in hand with a shift in what proportion of what takes up a family’s budget, this massive promotion of credit along with fiscal tools that actually force people into credit.
You have been bombarded with this mindset for decades.
Every advert, every TV show, showing you shiny things, showing you the credit card or loan company, showing you the “happy, powerful, career woman”…..it’s been sold to you so much that it’s now accepted thinking.
If in another reality we had done what Orban has done and taken women out of the tax system forever on the birth of their 2nd child, if we had shown you non stop media about how it’s great to be a mum looking after a big family, if we had let you keep most of your wages and never offered you a loan for shiny things so that you just bought them when you could afford them….then you’d be doing that.
You think what you’ve been taught to think !
It's seen across the world, as societies progress and become wealthier, birth rates drop regardless. In Iran, where there's a strong Islamic culture for large families, the birth rate plummeted to below replacement levels, it was the same in South Korea despite them spending billions on pro-family incentives. If it was all engineered why would these countries that are actively trying to boost births be doing so bad? Even in Hungary where income tax was scrapped for mother's of 4+ kids and subsidises housing for families, birth rates barely rose before stalling again.

Because the family isn’t supported or valued…..I’ll explain.
You probably have a couple of kids, years ago you’d have had 4…..or maybe more……mum would have stayed at home and brought them up, you’d have gone to work.
But now, two people have to work and they can’t afford more than a couple of kids…..no break in the tax system for it, child care costs, tax here, tax there, credit, credit, credit everyone has been actively corralled into……they don’t give a f**k if you have kids, they want you paying over the product of your Labour to the state and its corporate banking bosses….if they need more people, f**k it, let’s just import them !
Better to import them and keep you paying !
That’s why there is below replacement birth rates….because you and your blood don’t f***ing matter mate.
Japan offers child allowances, free schooling and parental leave. If money was the only problem, the birth rate should be recovering not declining.
It's the same in other countries with strong welfare support, it's more of a cultural shift if anything. People are marrying later and are more career driven, by choice, they are not forced.
Even if housing was cheap and childcare was free, not everyone would want to sit at home and look after 4 kids. People want careers, hobbies, travel, etc. Blaming low birth rates on the state is just a convenient cop out when the reality is, people's priorities have shifted.

Who is it you think I am? I’d really like to get this settled I’m interested to find out what crap you’ll come out with when I’ve proved my case
One of the best ways your loved ones can help you combat this illness is to nod and agree and go along with whatever makes you feel comfortable. You be who you want to be son and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

not got problem with paying bit more in tax as long as it's for right reasons,
UK government can send millions to Ukraine so they can afford to give doctors nurses pay rise.
Yet they haven't, and they don't get as much as abroad, hence why our doctors choose to emigrate for better pay and conditions.
