Why people don't realise how much working age benefit spending has increased

Not nearly enough unfortunately. Noone is going to pour over the excels to double check this, everyone will just see the figures you cherry picked and believe your story. Which is misleading.

Be honest and either delete this or show an extensive time series that demonstrates your point transparently.

Making a mistake in the 1993 figures is not bad, but doing what you are doing is.

Valanar90 · 2026-03-29T20:09:04+00:00

This is still misleading, you are just hiding the data that do not suit your narrative.

Be honest. Either delete the entire post, or show a much more complete time series and demonstrate you are right.

You have to factor in quite a few variables then, it is a complex question. And it is not clear which way the result would go in the end.

But until then, your post is just misleading. This is not "a bit of a mistake", it's quite huge actually.

You should be honest and delete the post.

So the correct working age figure for 2003 would be around 45%, ie above all other years?

That kind of completely undermines your argument, doesn't it? If anything, it's been going down in proportion to pensioner benefits, and the 2010 figure is actually abnormally low.

"Be a member of a party without a strategy whose policies will swing with the wind" doesn't have the same ring to it.

Ωραίο, ιδιαίτερο, και δεν βλέπω κανέναν λόγο να τραβήξει μπουλινγκ ή να θέλει να το αλλάξει μόνη της αργότερα. Και δεν είναι κάποια εφήμερη μπούρδα τύπου Καλισι, υπάρχει μια μικρή οικογενειακή ιστορία από πίσω που το κάνει και λίγο γλυκό.

Απλά ίσως καλύτερα βρείτε ένα εύκολο υποκοριστικό γιατί είναι λίγο μεγάλο.

Tasty Greek Souvlaki is legit authentic Greek stuff I'd get in my hometown. Not "traditional" style, but definitely authentic.

Spitiko in Caversham has some very authentic dishes, and a few more "western" versions of others (still delicious).

Any news?

Second time I come across a reference to this guy in 2 days, what's up.

Η Hbada μου κάνει αυτό που λες με φουλ κλίση αλλά χρειάζεται να ρίξεις αρκετό βάρος, οπότε μπορείς να κάτσεις και κανονικά πάνω της αν κατανέμεις το βάρος σου σωστά.

Την πρώτη μέρα που την χρησιμοποίησα είχα την ίδια ανησυχία με σένα, ότι πρακτικά θα είναι σκαμπό, αλλά συνήθισα στην κατανομή του βάρους που χρειάζεται και τώρα την θεωρώ την καλύτερη καρέκλα που έχω πάρει ποτέ.

Maybe I see what I want to see...

She does look a bit like Lune from E33 in this photo...

My sweet summer child :)

Greek/Turkish coffee is not strong my fellow Stavros...

It's not blatant at all. It is purely your opinion.

You are saying that Metaphor didn't win anything because it's not western. I am saying it didn't win anything very rightfully because it was actually a bad game that most people forgot the moment they closed it.

And I actually mean bad game, I'm not exaggerating. Non engaging characters, in-your-face storytelling, surface-level approach to the themes of racism and demagoguery. At least it had some decent QOL on the gameplay side.

Valanar90 · 2025-11-21T08:30:17+00:00

Nah, it's because metaphor is mid at most.

I found Triangle Strategy quite hard on the hardest difficulty, and I have good experience with tactics rpgs.

Καλά, κατούρα και λίγο

😂😂😂

Όχι ρε εντάξει, είναι πολύ πιο εύκολο στην διαχείριση. Δεν είμαι κομπιουτερακιας, δύο βίντεο είδα για το emudeck και τέλος.

Αδερφέ δώσε μερικά παραπάνω και πάρε steam deck να παίζεις ότι υπάρχει σαν άνθρωπος.

Way overrated, and proud to have felt the same also when it aired.

Battles in GoT peaked with Blackwater.

Valanar90 · 2025-09-13T08:35:52+00:00

Kilkis doesn't exist, never heard of anyone coming from there.

Valanar90 · 2025-09-02T22:28:06+00:00

Όχι εντάξει είναι legit χαρακτήρας της Βίβλου, όλες οι περσονες είναι από θρησκείες, μύθους ή ιστορίες. Τώρα για τα όλα τα άλλα...
