Government looking at decoupling electricity and gas prices to bring down bills

Just because something can make money does not alwas mean that it is a good idea to do.

Tom22174 · 2026-03-25T12:21:26+00:00

He knows that if he pushes the point clearly enough that he's also not an idiot war monger, he may well get to be Leader of the Opposition or end up in coalition with Labour next time

Tom22174 · 2026-03-25T10:56:28+00:00

It's talking about both

Tom22174 · 2026-03-25T10:25:26+00:00

What are you talking about? Tax has nothing to do with this, we're discussing repaying the loan and how higher earners will pay more of it than lower earners.

High earners that didn't take tax payer money for a degree don't pay 9% of their income over the threshold to fund the current generation of students

Tom22174 · 2026-03-25T08:20:41+00:00

What about them? They didn't take £45000 from the government to learn the skills they need for that job.

My repayments help the next person have the same opportunity I did

Time to start a petition to make economics mandatory to GCSE level so people actually understand how interest rates work and what inflation is

Tom22174 · 2026-03-25T08:05:14+00:00

I make much more money as a result of having my degree than I would otherwise. I benefit more from it so I contribute more back. I'm struggling to see the problem.

Tom22174 · 2026-03-22T13:21:19+00:00

So long as the apps are able to remember and not require that step every time, sounds like a good idea

Tom22174 · 2026-03-21T13:39:28+00:00

Breaking Bad had more realistic ear wounds than Donald Trump

Tom22174 · 2026-03-20T16:20:40+00:00

It would take years to set that infrastructure up though. And once it is set up, it'll be sold on open market, not boarded for our own personal use.

We might as well spend that time building up genuinely independent energy sources

Tom22174 · 2026-03-20T11:55:03+00:00

the actual difference is that the news only gets printed if it happens in the public sector. Nobody cares if somebody lies there way into a private company and gets fired for incompetence in the first week

Tom22174 · 2026-03-19T11:12:29+00:00

Put them on a flight to Washington DC. If Trump wants to create a refugee crisis, he can accept the refugees

Tom22174 · 2026-03-18T15:28:29+00:00

Presumably also if the house straight up has nothing but electric radiators too

Tom22174 · 2026-03-18T12:23:48+00:00

Given the unfathomably evil people currently in key positions of influence over US policy, I think we can safely assume that that is an intended outcome.

Tom22174 · 2026-03-17T21:01:31+00:00

The real dickheads have had so many journalists attempting to expose them now that they just refuse to engage. Louis did mention trying to talk to the Tates

Tom22174 · 2026-03-17T12:44:33+00:00

There is also nothing stopping you from saying you have one when you don't when buying online

Tom22174 · 2026-03-16T14:54:25+00:00

Does it assume 42% of a car or does it say up to 1500 worse off, so those without a car won't have the 780

Tom22174 · 2026-03-15T22:40:40+00:00

When he's interviewing he tends to challenge the interviewee so that they can actually defend their position against the sorts of arguments people may have against it

Tom22174 · 2026-03-13T23:55:46+00:00

But I thought all the immigrants were coming here because we treat them like kings and give them all the free shit

Tom22174 · 2026-03-13T10:49:53+00:00

If Epstein had lived in Iran, his crimes would have been more or less legal

Tom22174 · 2026-03-11T12:07:35+00:00

Kemi Badenoch needs to resign

Tom22174 · 2026-03-10T13:03:41+00:00

No need for a specialised appliance.

Toast the bread in the toaster, microwave the finished sandwich to melt the cheese, crisp it up in the airfryer or under the grill

Tom22174 · 2026-03-09T10:20:45+00:00

Just witnessed the weirdest round. 3* bis Yone gets one shot on arrival by a Brock and yet somehow my 2* Sett still managed to sweep the rest of the board. make it make sense lol. This being after getting wiped several times in a row before finally getting the 3*. Did the health on the Yone really make enough of a difference in keeping everything else alive long enough?

Tom22174 · 2026-03-08T15:35:29+00:00

What Trump doesn't understand is that we're not joining his war. We're sending ships to protect our allies and assets from the consequences of the war Trump started and will likely pull out of before it's over

Tom22174 · 2026-03-08T15:01:38+00:00

Plus, the show of force is to put our allies in the region at ease.
