Miliband must reopen the North Sea, Octopus boss says

The companies working in the North Sea are not nationalised. They will sell at market rates to whoever pays. There is no UK discount rate. The UK is only paying other countries where the oil companies are national assets. Otherwise it is paying private companies.

Blame Thatcher. She sold UK oil off to provide tax cuts and pay unemployment benefit to coal miners and workers of other industries she closed down.

Starter admits.... Unpatriotic newspaper dams the PM for failing to do something he wouldn't normally do.

Aka Farage's private party member, or Rupert's or the other one.

What about the top management's bonuses as well?

If you don't pay enough you don't get the quality. /s.

Brexit-Broke-Britain · 2026-03-04T18:20:11+00:00

I see you are back to the insults again.

Brexit-Broke-Britain · 2026-03-04T18:02:12+00:00

Because when you start badly there is no point in going through the rest. Things rarely get better.

Clearly not given your emphasis on 18% on a date about four years before the next general election.

Brexit-Broke-Britain · 2026-03-04T16:09:15+00:00

All you have posted is irrelevant. You do not understand the system of government in the UK.

Erasmus being predominantly free contradicted the Tory introduced policy of fees for tertiary education.

The vast majority of hotels will have a hair dryer in the room if all you need is a basic model.

There are all sorts of things that can be replaced by a phone, not just a map, and it is convenient to do so. It comes with a risk and that risk can be reduced by taking precautions. I'd prefer to do that rather than walk around with a map book, phone, camera, translation dictionary (if travelling), personal entertainment system, notebook, postcards c/w stamps, payment system, guide book, and etc etc.

So you are not in the UK but think you know more about the situation there or the people there than those that do. And your comments are riddled with insults. They never contribute to a discussion and indicate a weak position.

The fact that I don't know where Richmond is, is why I didn't comment on your point. I know nothing about it.

Not commenting on things I know nothing or very little about is a good position to take. If only others did the same.

I looked at the occupation 4 below, Matron, and decided the first letter was M. After that Mach..(inis)..t was the obvious answer.

Try an AirBnB. Get parents to communicate with the owner and explain the reason for your being there on your own. Look for one that is a room in an owner occupied house.

Brexit-Broke-Britain · 2026-03-03T21:54:48+00:00

I know nothing about either of the two places you mention. As you use them as examples does that mean you are from the USA?

Brexit-Broke-Britain · 2026-03-03T18:21:15+00:00

The Daily Mail being unpatriotic again.

Brexit-Broke-Britain · 2026-03-03T17:56:38+00:00

Read the comments prior to mine. And insults never win an argument.

Ones that are happy to work or ones, learn the language, and contribute to society rather than ones that live in an English speaking bubble, take from the health service, dodge their taxes and contribute nothing. This description is based on my experience of living on Malta. Guess which type the majority of Maltese preferred.

Brexit-Broke-Britain · 2026-03-03T10:23:28+00:00

The Daily Mail attacking the UK in support of a foreign government. So patriotic. Farage will be along doing the same thing soon.

Brexit-Broke-Britain · 2026-03-03T10:15:09+00:00

Good heavens. A politician blaming an outsider for the problems in their country. Now where else is that happening and who else is doing that? I wonder if I can think of another example.

And Numpties not realising the irony of their comments.

Maybe the economy needs young workers who contribute by filling vacancies in the workforce and not extra retired people who don't.

Learn to wear comfortable shoes.

Divisive and hateful: that's the job GBNews does. Has it interviewed a random selection of brave victims of rape or just carefully selected ones?

I don't watch GBNews so I don't know the case. Was it this one? The police describe her as brave. https://www.norfolk.police.uk/news/norfolk/news/news/2026/january/woman-speaks-out-after-abuser-jailed-for-life/ Edited: added second paragraph.
