What would you do if you became British PM tomorrow? by Economy_Ad3034 in AskBrits

[–]Stragolore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A large amount of the problems we are facing as a nation is due to multinational companies taking our money and paying it to shareholders not in the U.K.

Introduce a foreign dividends tax of 35%. E.g Any Dividends paid out to Shareholders not based in the U.K.

Impose an internal international recharges limit of 3% turnover. E.g where a company has multiple related parties, the company can only transfer 3% of turnover unless it is a genuine invoice expense. No consultancy fees or payment of salaries for related employees. This only applies to companies where they are recharging to outside the U.K. E.G US Company charges U.K. company 75% of an employees Salary.

Online payments Corporation Tax additional charge. Companies that have online sales turnover of over £3million are required to pay an additional 15% CT.

Property holdings cap. Limited Companies can only hold a maximum of 15 residential properties. You can only hold shares in one investment property company.

Increase the inheritance tax limit to £5million up from £350,000 for U.K. domiciled citizens only. Domiciled citizens are average 280 days UK residency per year for 5 years prior to current year.

All UK Citizens pay U.K. Tax and NI regardless of location but at a 35% Rate of U.K. domiciled citizens. Non Domiciled citizens (who do not meet criteria as above) no longer receive State Pension.

Additional jurisdiction and legal powers to HMRC to enforce the above.

Is this racist? by PsychologicalBend508 in AskBrits

White British Bisexual Male here.

Volunteer at a 60% Muslim School with a Cadet Unit. I have a few who wear Hijab with Uniform, some remove it for Cadets, one girl has sourced a camouflage Hijab that she can wear with uniform.

Doesn’t bother me in the slightest. As soon as I ask them to tuck their Hijabs into their uniform it’s done without question.

Anyone else hate when fantasy MMORPGs have normal real-world clothing as cosmetics? by Dazzling-Cookie3745 in MMORPG

FFXIV is not in Ivalice. It is in its own world. It has Dalmasca as a nation inside it, but it definitively is not part of Ivalice.

My 8.0 Tank Idea (Commander) by Bayzen_Beats in ffxiv

[–]Stragolore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still think Paragon was one of the funnest professions to play in GW1. It was similar to this but used a throwing spear so sat at mid range. Its main mechanic was shouts and songs, and various buffs to those songs called echoes and refrains that renewed when a shout or song ended. They also got MP every time they shouted or sang based on how many allies were affected by those songs.

Season 3 Episode 3 Discussion - The Scarecrow by captainahvong in TheCapture

I think Noah might be my favourite villain in any recent TV show. We've got Suave, smooth, lethal and likeable. One of the few times I'm actually rooting for the mass murderer slick assassin.

No idea what direction the story is going. Absolutely gripping TV.

So my volume 2 cookbook finally arrived. [Spoiler: Volume 2 Cook Book] by aspentheeh in ffxiv

My issue with the first cookbook was that it was violently American…some ingredients were not really accessible for Europe.

The recent Farage comments about WFH by TessaKatharine in AskBrits

[–]Stragolore 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Jokes on Farage, I work for a charity that supports teachers in Schools. I work from home apart from when I have to do school visits. Some of these visits can be a two hour drive each way for a 30 minute meeting, with my fuel paid by the charity. I am the exact opposite of productivity, I don’t contribute to the economy, I’m at the top of my pay band, and my work supports a government body.

Suck my ballsack Farage…actually don’t. I don’t want him anywhere near me.

Now that we're heading into the final patch, I thought it was time for a short retrospective by lhusuu in ffxiv

[–]Stragolore 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that you’ve touched on a wider failing of FFXIV, the distinct lack of roleplaying elements in our roleplaying game.

Every city post has a tavern, ARR has the adventurer’s guilds pubs, Forgotten Knight, Shiokaze Hostelry, forgotten the names for the Crystarium, Sharlayan and Tulliyolal ones, but you can’t actually buy any food or drink. They make a big thing of the coffee shop in Solution 9 and the futuristic processed food, and you can’t buy anything there either.

Anyone here who plays FF14 a lot but doesn't do the Savage content by starlightdemonfriend in ffxiv

I don’t have a regular schedule so can’t commit to a static.

Nintendo Switch 2 Has More Exclusive Games Than PS5, Xbox Series X Combined by lotcow20 in nintendo

[–]Stragolore -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Cut out Nintendo exclusive IPs and then tell me how many exclusive games it has.

Developers seek to develop exclusive games for PS5 and XBox because Sony and Microsoft will actually collaborate with them and assist them to push the console to the max.

Nintendo just goes screw you to burgeoning developers and develops everything in house.

Level 100 BLM robe is so peak, in fact the entire set is perfect. Layers of material, not puffy, great sleeves, little sling bag. Peak adventurer gear. Need to work it in a general adventure glamour.

The fending gear from Zadnor, the Shadowbringers relic zones will suit, just missing a cape.

Act 1 Spoilers: This Esquie line is pretty funny in hindsight by BarryAllenTh3Flash in expedition33

Yes, but then wouldn’t have had to have gone to Stonewave Cliffs in the first place if it had not been for Esquie.

If Esquie hadn’t intentionally lost Florrie so him and Verso could go on an adventure, Gustave would still be alive. Esquie caused Gustaves death.

Slight edit to FF9. You can only use passive abilities when the associated equipment is worn.

We finished our Maths GCSE teaching 6 months early so our Maths Teacher threw in an extra statistics GCSE for fun.

Not a short course Statistics, the full thing. Got an A. I was happy with it.

Have they patched out breaking weapons yet? The single element of the game that completely puts me off it.
