I've got a pre-paid funeral plan with the COOP. My dad had one and it made everything so easy. Also I paid for it in 2010 when funeral prices were a lot cheaper.

They were perhaps thinking that back then CEOs earned 10 times what their workers did, the top rate of tax was 80%, we owned all the utilities, N Sea oil & gas, the Post Office, BT and the coal & steel industries and being able to buy a house. I was in my 20s. Sex was legal for me at last! Brilliant

Think it goes back to the days before teabags when there were always dregs at the bottom of the cup. We should be over that by now.

Is that in Duffield's constituency? Maybe voters aren't so keen on voting for transphobic parties.

So are Labour going to continue to out Reform Reform by stopping all immigration and beginning the deportations? Because if the don't Reform will continue to bang the 'Labour are weak on immigration' drum.

He's a religious fundamentalist who hates the fact that he's gay and takes his self loathing out on a smaller and less powerful group in society. There is no hate like Christian love!

There seems to be plenty of money to provide intelligence to Israel, buy nuclear bombs & other arms, send billions to Ukraine, spend £21 billion on carbon capture, subsidise oil & gas and to not taxes the rich. It's all about choices and Labour's fall on the weakest shoulders.

This is not what we want Labour to deliver. You're just playing into Reform's hands by adopting their language on immigration.
I'd like you to deliver a fairer, more equal society that doesn't demonise minorities and blame them for all our eors

I was 24 in 1975, a full time teacher and proud buyer of my 1st house which cost the enormous sum of £4250 on a 95% mortgage from the council. I was young, life was fun and we owned the Utilities, oil, railways, coal, steel and even the phone company. All well before Thatcher.
