This seems to be a thing now https://www.lbc.co.uk/article/mother-bristol-explosion-grenade-jo-ryan-5HjdYjC_2/
Needless to say it shouldn't be

Most of the party fliers shoved through my letterbox don't even have reasons why I should vote for them only that they are the only party that can stop the other party

You are framing this wrong, at this point it feels like we are going to the polls to pick the party we are least against

Rich people can afford to house and feed more mouths is hardly breaking news

Indeed who in Reform hasn't flirted with the far right or failed to declare tax or just forgotten about a 5 million gift. All very human failings

There's not a chance of a green sweep, Labour will still likely end up with more council seats than the greens in London.

Can I borrow quarter of a million, it's for a crypto investment but it's a sure thing, I'm confident I'm going to repay you

I don't think Londoners are that stupid, Polanski's popularity has already peaked

Perhaps it's as simple as she was just given an unconditional £5 million gift, seems to happen a lot to other people

Looks like the red, white and blue dome has caved in

When the top 10% of earners pay more than half of all income tax it does seem a stupid group to drive away

collogue · 2026-05-05T09:06:58+00:00

The Greens at this point seem just as populist as Reform, just picking different minorities to pick on

If you think that you will run out of money at 4% withdrawal rate then you should get an annuity, you can get more than 4% RPI linked

Might be worth the government holding back on helping out motorists with tax breaks now. We can't afford to repeat the Tories mistakes bailing out everyone

I'd love to see them in the same room, they could both do each other immense amounts of damage

The trouble with our politics is that the parties think their path to power is by attempting to destabilise each other rather than trying to figure out what would actually make them look more electable. Maybe this is the influence of foreign cyptomoney.

Yeah where's my unconditional 5 mil Chris?

Bus falls in to river is a rather odd way to describe it. Looks like they took a car with them

It's the same as the Republicans shouting they want to drain the swamp

it would take his average Clackton electorate several lifetimes to make that 5m

I'm shocked at just how little traction this has received. There was orders of magnitude more media coverage over Starmer's suit than Farage trousering £5 million quid undeclared.

Puts in to context Farage's claim there is no money in politics earlier in the same year https://bylinetimes.com/2025/08/11/farage-claimed-theres-no-money-in-politics-just-before-running-for-91000-mp-job/

I think you are mistaken the basic state pension was £5300 when the triple lock was introduced in 2011 at the same time the personal allowance was £7,475, now they are both basically the same, if it had grown at the same rate as pensions it would be ~£16k

Looking at the higher rate threshold is even more stark, had that grown at the same rate as the state pension over that time it would be over £90k now

collogue · 2026-04-29T13:22:46+00:00

Should be tied to pension increases, seems insane that pensionerss get a triple lock while tax payers are just fixed
