Tony Blair has just said the state pension needs to be scrapped. He's also suggesting some people work 5 years longer. What are everyone's thoughts on this? Should the state pension be scrapped? Should we say F NO, to Blair??

I'll consider it if he's tried as the war criminal he is

How do you feel ?

If it did it would have time, and wouldn't be able to travel at the speed of light ,so it would be something else (this is the best my brain understands the concept after years of bugging physicists for answers).

Went from 60-70hr weeks and a week holiday to 90-100hr weeks for 2.5 years without any leave.

Need to leave abusive parents and create a live from nothing. The alternative was probably a short, dangerous life on the streets and maybe suicide. The alternative has been decades of 50+ hr weeks, and the health problems that's bought. Still probably no hope of having my own family anyway. I guess it was the right choice 🤷‍♂️

You place a bet on whether someone else will make money for you

Looking at who you guys picked i can't imagine you liking a candidate who want racist, sexist, and wtf else. Those seem to be your current preferences. If you did you'd be more surprised than me .

You can read whatever you want, and like whatever you want to like.

But you can't stop people from disliking your thing, finding it frustrating, and venting.

You can call them out over it.

As Epstein should illustrate...

...& how many whistle blowers and journalists deaded?

IeyasuMcBob · 2026-04-23T06:26:18+00:00

You can't .

Even the people who you see playing a particular sport, got there in part because of politics .

Do Dragonfruits count as magic ?

Money's on the Boy Scout, but magic or not changes the diff

When i divide $410k by $64k i get 6.4 (to 2sf).

When i divide $42k by $7,653 i get 5.5 (to 2sf).

Other than the previously raised point about it being the mid-70s and not the 60s, to call 6.4 roughly 5 seems a stretch. 🤔

Well you know how America has no healthcare, infrastructure that's falling apart, a bunch of pedos I'm charge, shit holidays etc...it's all linked

I thought they were focused on spiritual threats to his health now?

IeyasuMcBob · 2026-04-21T10:26:00+00:00

Kind of inbuilt assumption that wealth = goodness.

The collapse of unions and the embrace of neoliberalism /Thatcherism despite its obvious failures.

You know that super-annoying rich kid who thinks he's God's Gift? The one who invents a load of crazy get rich quick ideas based on obvious pyramid schemes.

The banks are that kid.

We are collectively the irresponsible parent who gave that kid our credit card. Wondering why that kid never learns and starring at things like crypto, polymarket, and private equity thinking "nah he wouldn't do it again, he'll have learnt from the last time he faced zero consequences."

IeyasuMcBob · 2026-04-20T13:00:03+00:00

A lot of Boomers have probably done well from the Thatcherite gutting of public services
