Yes Atish it really is looking very bleak!

But then again I am not a UK resident any longer.

I just pop in for a while, observe all around me, vote in elections and disappear out again.

For me it has become a bit like watching a slow motion car crash...

UK trapped in 'debt doom loop' as borrowing hits 101% of GDP!

Ray Dalio, the billionaire behind Bridgewater Associates, raised the alarm as UK government debt hit 101 per cent of GDP and long-term borrowing costs surged to two-decade highs.

Lads, keep calm and carry on.

Asperger, very salient words!

There are some on here like rabbits trapped in the headlights, like they are paralysed with fear! They never stop rabbiting on about the motor finance scandal and the potential negative consequences.

The Spanish have started winging about loosing the womens final...

Spain captain Irene Paredes claims her team ‘deserved’ to win the Euro 2025 final more than ‘lucky’ England.

Spain captain Paredes felt her team ‘deserved it more’ after the heartbreaking defeat and accused England of being ‘lucky throughout the whole tournament’.

‘I don’t really know what to say,’ Paredes told Spanish TV station RTVE. ‘It’s a very hard moment.

‘It is about having that bit of luck and England had that throughout the whole tournament. We thought we could overcome that but we weren’t able to.

‘It’s a final and we are sad because we weren’t able to win,’ Tome said. ‘I think the effort from all of the players was very good, they tried until the very end to try to win but then we arrived at a penalty shootout and we weren’t able to do it.

‘I thought overall we were very good on the ball. They are a team that play a lot on the second balls and they managed to hurt us a bit in these situations.

Fits well with my experience in Spain that Spanish women have this sense of entitlement.

Spain lost and they just should accept the outcome, period!

Now that is really great news!

Now nasty trade war avoided!

I imagine there will be a nice bounce in Europen markets!

I think we should all be greatly releaved that our dear neighbours in Europe have scored this big success!

Little solace in winning the womens final, when you can't win the mens final.

Don't mean to burst your baloon or anything and put a dampner on things.

Yeah but lads, but who won the mens UEFA final in 2024?

I suppose you'll just have to settle for winning the womens final.

Take whatever scraps you can get really...

Come on Spain!

MV, there are going to be so many Indians over here soon, it'll probably become mandatory to learn the language at school.

Over 200 MPs from across the house have written an open letter requesting that Starmer recognise a palastinian state, but the t055er Starmer is a zionist and is refusing.

Bloomers, Im happy to welcome our Muslims brothers and sisters to the island of ireland.

Bloomers, yes I think we should get the empty dinghies that the illegal migrants arrive in and abandon, shipped over to norther ireland and shove all thse loyalists in them and let them come back over the England, Scotland or Wales and settle there. They could always use the argument that Israel is using in Palestine and say this land belonged to us a few hundred years ago and kick out the British people who live there now.

It's the settler colonialists loyalists who go our marching on the 12th of July spouting their racism and hate that annoy me.

We should kick them out of the country!

* and employers will 'lose' more expensive UK workers.

Soon there will be no jobs for the UK indigenous labour force!

Combination of influx of indians will undercut the wages and the Indians will snap all the jobs up and lose more expensive UK workers.

That combined with AI taking jobs mean UK indigenous workers are fcuked!

Jim would like to be taking Sam home.

Chips, we can think illegal immigrants believe it is their birthright to come to the UK if the UK supported a proxy war or invaded their country at some stage in history, but obviously it would not justify any acts of violence in revenge, clearly.

These poor unfortunate illegal immigrants in fact have the higher moral ground and have every right to start a new life in the UK.

Let's call it restorative justice!

Brixton, you are mischievous...
