The great British homeowner will then buy stuff for his castle and that my friends will boost growth
I like to chant homeowner homeowner homeowner over and over while squeezing as tight as possible my man fruits0 -
Oh dear.....I think we are taking ourselves a bit too seriously. Is it really necessary to snitch on posters you don't like. I'm just suprised you feel strong enough to care. I wouldn't dream of asking them to ban you or that White Horse loon.
Snitching would be doing something in secret. My actions were the opposite, openly posting my dislike for DLW's habit of using this board to vent his biased spleen. I also pointed out openly on here that I tried to get the mods to moderate him.
I'm very happy to be open about the poster's I dislike, which would certainly include you. However your posts are mainly just dull, bitter & sometimes containing accusations that you are unable to backup when challenged, I.e. pathetic overall but not worth reporting.0 -

No they don't.
The deficit has fallen by roughly £20-30,000,000,000 since the Tories got in. The difference between the ONS, the IMF (who use the ONS stats) and you is that the first 2 have a Scooby.0 -

Quite telling post that. Your puffed up sense of self importance for one thing. I also wonder how you dislike someone you've never met? If you read DLW...he doesn't do personal. He stays political and doesn't engage. Unlike you and unlike me. You are the one venting your spleen. Mr self appointed internet warrior. There's enough vitriol and material in that post to keep an army of psychologists busy for a month. Keep taking the meds!;)Snitching would be doing something in secret.

Time and time again people have no memory of the billions that were also pumped into the NHS and education during the mid 2000's. You may not have agreed with that policy...but that's where all the money went!Thrugelmir wrote: »The money wasn't spent on anything that generated growth.

Why weren't they honest with the electorate that if they wanted the services they would have to pay for them? That's the issue I have. That and value for money, but that's a separate thread.“I could see that, if not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled.” - P.G. Wodehouse0
