Paid Members Jazzy G Posted July 9, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted July 9, 2020 Saw a video on Facebook of an interview with Rishi Sunak where a self employed man was talking about how he and a lot of other people don't want a hand out etc, they just want parity. When the presenter threw over to Sunak he paused for a few seconds looking like a rabbit in the headlights, said there's a problem on the line which meant he didn't hear what the other guy had to say, and then spouted rhetoric about all the "great stuff they've done during furlough". He's got future PM written all over him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members JNLister Posted July 13, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted July 13, 2020 I'm counting Wetherspoons as Tories. They've put this ad out and got loads of unquestioning newspaper site coverage. All good except... the VAT cut is only on food. Not alcohol. Wetherspoons are cutting their prices as a political pro-Sunak stunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The quote from Tim Martin was "Supermarkets pay about two pence per pint of business rates and pubs pay about 20 pence" - what rate is he on about there?

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted July 14, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted July 14, 2020 Presumably he's doing this while still charging the earth for soft drinks so he can make up the difference that way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the suggestion of "McDonald's" when someone asked for recommendations for Florida (IIRC). Genuine lol moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Factotum Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 The economic hit that is going to happen is really going to test this whole Sunak love in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamura Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 This is a new take on democracy. Are all future decisions going to be run past the chief constable of Hampshire to see if she thinks they are a good idea or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the man on the Clapham Omnibus got a good severance package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tories aren’t just made up of the wealthy. So many of the worst well off voted for them as well, the cunts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
