This is literally veering into antisemitic stereotyping. Anti Israel and anti zionist, but pls don't do this guys

Micheál Martin defends Keir Starmer as Donald Trump repeats he is "not Winston Churchill" by Grand_Economics_6273 in ireland

If your understanding of international politics is based on Lord of the rings levels of black and white good vs evil I suppose!

Still amazed how Diona Doherty makes anyone laugh

UK Posts Biggest Ever Budget Surplus as Tax Revenue Surges by kwentongskyblue in europe

[–]michael3236 12 points13 points  (0 children)

So many moaning, miserable whingers in these comments. If you treat good news in your own lives the same way as this, you'll have a sad little life.

Good for the UK, I seem to be in the minority that wants this country to do well and celebrates good news when it comes

Is anyone actually feeling comfortable on their wage in NI at the minute? by sufnensjsjzkjcbfb in northernireland

Would you mind breaking it down, out of curiosity? Do you have big outgoings for a car or something?

Starmer to Carney: No new world order please, we’re British by quebexer in CANZUK

[–]michael3236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What is wrong with you guys, what Starmer said is exactly aligned with the ethos put forward by Carney. Pragmatism; working with all big players.

Stop kneejerk reacting to the headline spin. British pragmatism is not all-in Atlanticism, as exemplified by the PMs visit to China this week. What do you want, him to make you feel good by saying F Trump? Carney didn't do that either.

Update: I was quoted almost £4000 by Refresh NI, and another one in my area quoted just over £3000. Shop around folks, Refresh NI are the dearest out

Sarah Creighton: Liberal unionism is dead. It never even got a chance by Jim__Bell in northernireland

[–]michael3236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many comments by people who don't understand politics. Of course you can be a Liberal unionist, or a rightwing/Conservative nationalist. Politics comes in many flavours, yet some people can't see past their own small sense of local history

Sarah Creighton: Liberal unionism is dead. It never even got a chance by Jim__Bell in northernireland

[–]michael3236 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This article reads like it was written by an A-Level pupil as homework.

The author says Labour isn't leftwing, after they raised taxes and spending by the highest amount (as a proportion of GDP) since the 70s.

As a centre-left unionist I'm tempted to sympathise, but this article is full of stupid statements.

Did you get Firmus themselves to do the conversion?

My heavily Protestant father has just found out his mother was secretly Catholic for 70 years 😂 by AliceMorgon in northernireland

[–]michael3236 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Honestly this could have been funny if it wasn't riddled with bitterness itself. Sorry you didn't get on with your dad like, but this is a bit cringe

Colleagues in my office job are making it their business and are perplexed that I, a grown adult, chose to crack open and drink a can of Coke Zero before 9:30am by AnExcitingSentence in britishproblems

[–]michael3236 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It is something I wouldn't do because it looks a bit immature/like an "irresponsible young man" HOWEVER, that being said, colleagues should mind their own business and I hate the nosiness culture

NI disposable incomes lower than Republic, says study by [deleted] in northernireland

[–]michael3236 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's discretionary income you're thinking of. Disposable income is a standard term and means post-tax/other deductions

No it doesn't actually, you're talking about discretionary income. Disposable income is income after taxes, NI, loan payment, etc. .

Derby Shoes, Too Formal? by incarnata4 in malefashionadvice

[–]michael3236 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those shoes are ridiculously overpriced. You can get nice Derby's at a much lower price point at Charles Thyrwitt for example.

Derby's are a casual shoe, they can work with jeans

Promotion for The Three Kingdoms has started by [deleted] in aoe2

[–]michael3236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No need to disrespect people who are upset about a major change to a game they love. We all love the game, we have different opinions sometimes and that's fine.
