  1. Thing is most kids receiving free school meals have at least one working parent. Losing 20% of wages is massive if you are on f**k all wage. It entitles a lot more kids to free meals. Did Harry Kane receive free school meals when he was a kid as Rashford did? Has he used his position to help out kids as Rashford has? Come on lads see beyond the kids skin tone. I was supposed to get free meals when I was a kid as did my wife. I refused them because the meal tickets were different colours. You were marked out as a loser. Instead I used to go to a bakery and buy a penny loaf. My aunti
  2. My experience too. I was out grafting at ten. Milk rounds,paper rounds, thieving, window cleaning, worked for the scrappie. Bought and sold. Out of school at 13. Figured out working for the man was a mugs game and started a business. Always paid proper wages. Retired at 55. My mam had nothing but she took in all sorts of ragamuffins, fed them and gave them a bath. I remember me and my cousin being lifted for robbing gas meters. I was 13 They were from empty houses that were due to be pulled down. For me it was a victimless crime but for the magistates it was a big deal. We got si
  3. I'm not a commie but I can't help but admire how the Chinese have virtually eliminated Covid.They are capable of testing eleven million people in two weeks. We can't even get our " world beating testing service" even remotely functional. A better example of co7ntries where there is a high degree of state support and intervention would be the Nordic countries, especially Finland. Brilliant place. Consistently scores as the best place to live in the world.
  4. I think you've hit the nail on the head. I do believe in the so called 'nanny' state. The more individual citizens are looked after by the state the more I like it.I prefer to call it responsible government. The Daily Mail and co can spew their venom about 'handouts' and 'elf and safety' but the truth is that it's the duty of the state to nurture and protect its citizens. I can remember my mam in the fifties taking me to the doctors for jabs and being absolutely over the moon that I wouldn't get polio etc. In those days we were given cod liver oil, orange juice and free school milk. The result
  5. Astanley, I apologise for pissing you off. I just cannot get my head round why a working class liverpudlian would support the tories on anything. The tories have targeted Liverpool over decades by deliberately underfunding the area. They underfund the North as a whole but especially target Liverpool because it is such a staunch working class area with traditional ' your never walk alone values'. Boris Johnstone personally insulted scousers by saying you guys had a ' victim mentality'. Liverpool has more than its fair share of deprivation why would you agree with the tories that its poorest k
  6. Klopp top man. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2020/oct/23/marcus-rashford-free-school-meals-campaign-incredible-says-jurgen-klopp-liverpool-manchester-united
  7. I'm sorry gents, if head teachers, parents and social workers report kids in genuine need of a hot meal then ffs let's feed our kids in a national emergency. Why do we need a vote in the commons and endless debate to feed the nation's kids? Its not about political affiliations or scoring party points, its about common sense and humanitarianism.
  8. If you' re not on the wind up, you must be the only scouser who agrees with the bustards. You don't buy The Sun do you?
  9. So our true blue comedian Boris Johnstone has, along with 321 of his fat _arsed colleagues decided not to offer school meals during the school holidays to the nation's poorest children. They say they don't want to encourage a "dependency" culture. "Handouts" are not the forward they reckon in their infinite f***ing wisdom. One third of children lived in official poverty before Covid and two thirds of those children had a least one parent working. Since many parents are now furloughed or have lost their jobs because of Covid, there must be many families really living on the bones of t
  10. Lots of parents struggling to feed their kids with only Covid benefits coming in. Some are getting no benefits. No kids should be hungry in 2020. https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/554276
  11. I guess it's 50000 over the normal figure averaged over several years.
  12. ONS reckons there's an extra 50000 deaths on same period last year. What I can't get my head around is why anybody gives a f**k about oldies from my generation. The economy and our way of life has been destroyed to save the lives of a few thousand non producers. When did the tories suddenly become so caring? Governments generally send you to war and rip you off all your life! I can only think it's a kind of peer pressure from other countries. That and the fact that If they let the virus rip nobody would ever vote tory again.
  13. Nobody will believe this but I promise you on my granfkids lives it is true. I bought my Mrs a Siamese cat that regularly killed brown hares, usually leverets but sometimes full grown adults. She would drag them home between her front paws. Honestly no bullshit! We lived on an estate that used to host hare coursing and there were hares everywhere.
  14. Looks good, do you know him?
  15. Terry O'Connor has come up with some"interesting" decisions over the years.
  16. Very interesting interview. The big lad has been very unlucky. He reckons he beat Fury on their first fight and Danny Williams too. Have to agree. Even Fury's dad has gone up in my estimation because he said Tyson had been beaten by big John McDermott on their first fight.
  17. Socks is on the alert re- Boris
  18. I hear the Mexicans are demanding America build that wall.
  19. Mexicans are demanding Trump builds that wall and they will pay for it. Mexicans a few hundred cases, yanks 85000
  20. Wash your hands after you bring the wheelie bin in. The virus is good at staying alive on plastic surfaces. Alternatively, shove your hand down that girl's trousers (above) nothing will survive down there.lol
  21. I just did it on my own lol.
  22. He'd need to plant a few rain forests and the paedo price 'airmiles Andy' a forest the size of Brazil to offset his nonce hunting habit.
  23. Lots of Scots up in arms that he was tested when he has only got mild symptoms and ordinary health workers have not been tested. Also that he flew in a private plane to Aberdeen with just him and that old trout despite always shouting about his green credentials.
  24. I believe the basic storyline but doubt that was a true photo of him after the attack. Who would takethe photo? Surely they would be applying first aid and calling for help? Would he be standing up? Why so little blood on his clothes? Fake news!
