people talking about diets, sugar, sweeteners, fat etc etc, it feels like i hear the bloody conversation every ****ing week. I couldn't give a ****, if you don't agree with sugar, don't put it in your tea. It bores the pants off of me. The fact that Nutritional guidelines seem to bloody change ever...

JSA would pay her more than WTC does. So while I agree the state shouldn't support self employed businesses (any more than business should get state aid to pay its staff a decent wage), nail bar woman is actually saving the nation money with her 'business'. She's only saving the nation money by tak...

Its not that simple WG. Your 40 hour toilet cleaner would only get a vote if his/her wages were high enough to not need subsidising. Corbyns tax credit nursery nurse worked 40 hours, paid her taxes but was a net recipient of about 20k. On average you need to be earning 40k to be a net contributer, ...

Who is to say what is the yardstick of what "having contributed" is? ? I really don't think it is that hard. They seem to be able to agree on all sorts of other thresholds. Why not this one? Having a vote and being able to vote for the party that best perpetuates such a system of handing ...

I specifically didn't say that those earning a high salary or other income be the only people allowed to vote. As far as I'm concerned you can be a toilet cleaner and work 40 hours a week, you should have the vote. If you're not working or can't demonstrate you're contributing or have contributed I ...

Whilst the wholesale give away to 'bad backs', 'care providers', lifestyle choice and 'baby makers' carry's on regardless still........ The crux of the problem is universal suffrage. Never was a good idea. Restrict it to people that can show they've paid into the system or work a certain numbers of...

I don't buy all this Sturridge guff. One good season whilst playing with probably the best striker in the world at the time.

I could have got a few goals I playing off him.

Bought load of football autobiographies on Kindle. Currently reading C.Ronaldo's book. Decent insight into his life and instances that have made him the person he is. I quite liked the recent documentary. Have always felt he was a decent lad , that kind of confirmed it. His relationship with his so...

Being Mortal by Atul Gawande

Advise not to read if you are afraid of either dying or getting old.

Even if you're not it's a fairly crushing read as to how irrelevant we become and the care (or lack thereof) we receive as we become aged.

Khan's bigger than Mayweather - taller for sure and has a bit of time to add some meat. Obvs not the same defense, and we all know about the whiskers, but swifter hands than anyone out there....going out on a limb here, but I have a sneaky feeling he might do Canelo. Great fight for him regardless ...

Great game from Noble yesterday but Song would have nicked MOTM for me .

When fit and motivated , he just oozes class in that role.

Christ Screech you don't mess around do you

Nice work , our lot must have had you sweating a while though?

This what boxing is all about for me as a fan, dreaming to be the best and wanting the biggest fights Canelo could knock Khan's head into row z, but he is one of the biggest names and best fighters in the world. You got to step up and want those fights if they present themselves Good on Khan for go...

Brook will look an even bigger cock if Khan wins that fight

I agree. It's a race to Charles Martin. I genuinely believe Haye would beat Joshua judging by his performance against Whyte, way too many weaknesses there especially in defence that would be exploited by someone of David Haye's calibre. Agree , Haye certainly beats Joshua at present . I don't even ...

If we can get an early goal I'll be happier, Villa will come looking for a point.

A large part of me thinks it's down to punters just thinking , it's West Ham, they can't be relied on in the same way as Ruud Van Nistelrooy in the FGS market :-) I think you're right , it occasionally pays to be a fan, as we've been a wee bit more reliable this season. Maybe not picked up by others...

Drift continues on The Hammers....2.0 now.

Agree with you DC, I had some of this yesterday.

Seems baffling, Villa are pretty ****, we are at home, we are 6th in the league etc

Don't get it

I reckon they should pull all the British old boys out and do a Prizefighter night. Imagine Bruno, Lennox and co. going at it for 3 rounds. Whoever wins the comp is allowed a return to full Pro boxing. Will only pay for that if I can have assurance that Bruno is going to be off his meds for at leas...
