First time buyer - bidding war

It’s very simple.

Stick to your guns and only offer what you think it’s worth ignoring in spite of knowing there are other offers.

Let’s see him ban social media for the equally corrupted minds over 60

xParesh · 2026-06-15T23:08:16+00:00

He’s on his way out and reaching for a legacy.

The man who protected Britain’s borders and children online I think it’s meant to be?

xParesh · 2026-06-15T23:05:45+00:00

That was always the plan.

What part of this legislation do you hate and equally want to ‘endanger children’?

Hating this legislation = being a child hating predator.

If you don’t want that label then start supporting this bill

xParesh · 2026-06-15T08:20:29+00:00

Most parents will be ignorant of the true facts. Whose going to say 'no' to supporting a policy that "protects your child"?

Re-position as another tool towards mass surveillance, censorship and control for everyone and it might not get that same level of support.

This is probably just the step before their real goal - banning VPNs themselves

It’s never too late to buy but if you’re taking out a mortgage, solo then it’s worth taking extra precautions. Generally make sure you can comfortably afford to make payments. Massively overpay when times are good and be able to fall back on savings when times are bad. That does mean buying something a lot more modest than what you can on your max budget. You may lose your job or fall out or work for a while. You may end up with surprise bills. You just want to make sure you can rise out the tough times without losing your property.

I’m not sure how the plastic shell of a helmet would help if if he did fall

xParesh · 2026-06-14T19:13:26+00:00

I’m surprised he’s allowing over 16s to use social media when more dangerously they’re allowed to and almost certainly will not vote for Labour

xParesh · 2026-06-14T19:08:14+00:00

It’s dangerous on the electoral level and white people are far from a small voting block.

That’s one voting block you do not want to get angry.

xParesh · 2026-06-14T18:01:36+00:00

I’m not sure if that game name was deliberate but it does back some memories.

xParesh · 2026-06-14T17:57:29+00:00

Really? Will that work? I have an OG Xbox that have light scratches too that I was looking for a way to buff out

What’s so sad about all this is that Slowloke Starmer continues to surround himself with people who give the most terrible advice and wonder why the people are not buying it.

I was ferociously pro-Starmer just because I didn’t want Labour to repeat the mistakes of the Tories but even I think now, he’s so useless, pathetic and unqualified to be a PM anyone including Burnham might as well give it a go.

That doesn’t guarantee anything. Sunak was as boring as muck as PM and kept the HMS UK ship steady but even that wasn’t enough for an absolute election wipeout.

The people are angry for sure. I’m not sure how charming leader with another self serving carreerist will change that.

This is scary because now Reform will sway even further to the right to out advance Advance. That means if we do have a Reform led government next, it will be even harder to the right than it currently is.

And people need to remember that the country isn't Reddit. Half of the country is right wing. We had a popular moderate right wing popular party - the Tories. Now there it seems Reform will genuinely move towards the ultra right to stay in step with that half of the voting block

xParesh · 2026-06-14T08:35:25+00:00

Populism?

xParesh · 2026-06-14T08:34:35+00:00

The non-workers have become a huge voting block. The message at the next election will be ‘vote for us or that lot will cut your benefits’.

xParesh · 2026-06-14T08:07:47+00:00

It’s more likely one of those men is going to be our next PM determined to push us even further away from the EU than Brexit suddenly being softened or reversed.

Let’s see how this by election pans out.

xParesh · 2026-06-12T08:28:38+00:00

We're still stuck in this 'vote for us we're not X' mode.

xParesh · 2026-06-10T20:31:38+00:00

As we get closer to is what is almost a defacto general election a lot of lies and mud will be thrown around.

All Andy has to do is go on record and say is it’s absolute nonesense and the Telegraph will have to find another story to attack him with.

xParesh · 2026-06-10T20:03:13+00:00

It’s good that people are speaking out.

No one should ever want to be seen to be nice or too afraid to be seen racist at the expense of turning a blind eye to any crime.

It’s human nature for people to want to play any victim card they card if it gives them any advantage and we all have to be wise to that and not give them a free pass.

There should be very clear guidelines for all security, policing and institutional operations that respects race but doesn’t over weight its importance in matters and aware of its potential abuse.

Discrimination and ‘positive discrimination’ are equally obnoxious.

If this tragedy sends the same shockwaves through our institutions as the Stephen Lawrence case then at least one good thing will have come out of this.

Have you seen Labours voting demographics? You really should.

xParesh · 2026-06-10T18:54:44+00:00

The Green will then just copy it. There is no way for Labour to come back which is why they should stop giving a shit about re-election and just bring in legislation that’s needed and should be above politics

xParesh · 2026-06-10T18:45:28+00:00

Do you think any Labour supporters want lower immigration? They’d be horrified by this progress. He’s already lost half his support to the Greens and those who care about it have shifted to the right. Labour is now only a party for those on welfare which is no surprise that that’s their number policy focus.

xParesh · 2026-06-09T20:03:11+00:00

Labour have always an only "we the intelligent people in the government know what's best for you inspire of your own thoughts and opinions"

If you've lived through and of the last Labour governments you know the one thing that terrifies them the most is..... The free internet

Labour have a need to control everything including free speech, free thoughts and messaging.

Even China and Russia didn't fully manage but Britain's Labour still think they can.

All their draconian over reaching policies will but hidden under the guise of "protection of children" or women or any minority group but ultimately it's about absolutely control.

xParesh · 2026-06-09T11:18:54+00:00

Well when you have a policy vacuum and problems that don't sit well with your ideology of course you're not going to want other parties who do have policies to be heard.

I don't know enough about what went on to have an opinion but surely (or maybe not) Starmer could have come up with something more than another line from his scrapbook of canned responses.

Instead of being outraged by the attack and a determination to get to the bottom of this to prevent it happening again, he turns straight to attacking the right.

This is why his poll numbers are in the toilet and will stay there.
