Another problem will be IF he wins , will him and Starmer seem on the same wavelength .
I very much doubt that is a match made in Heaven , a Leftie and a Radical .

So far Uncle Sam and the UK have had a good relationship in peacetime matters .

Stories abound Trump will pull out of the NATO pact if elected , we are then our lonesome .

No fussed if he is elected Stateside either way , but an entertainment package will follow .

All this Budget Speculation
at 01:47 1 Nov 2024

Seems another mini budget due in the Spring next year .

Got out of this one it seems without much of a hit gladly others have not I know .

But the question on Rachels speech will be , we promised not to increase income tax on our original manifesto pledge and got voted in on that statement .

However this not new rise in taxation was a sleight of hand trick played by Rach to do another U turn albiet through this second budget .

Come next Spring concerns will surface agian regarding her planning .

Liz Truss and Kwasai Kwarteng are a hard act to beat though .

Politicians , got to love them .

Prince William and homelessness

Would love to know the real truth of Harry and Megan going across the pond to settle .
The Family would never ever release the backstory regarding this issue .

Spin and Press releases follow obviously carefully worded by Buck House , all is fine here .

Lady Di was allegedly a rebel , maybe Harry is following her tradition also breaking away from The Firm , maybe Hollywood media darling wife had a big say in his decision .

Bigger picture is what do The Royals really do apart from attracting tourists to London and Windsor Castle , Swansea has a Castle too .

Good post earlier stating William will go back to his Stately Home after visiting the homeless and stay warm , others will not get that benefit this Winter .

Just to turn the anti royalist argument by me on its head .

Keep fighting message to Kate Middleton and Charlie boy in their fight against the Big C .

Rumours speculate that some footballers on International duties talk amongst themselves about their earnings at that particular they are part of , heads are turned on that news .

Somebodies wage packet is their business a footballer , cleaner or essential care assisstant .

Know who my priority would be in that food chain of wealth .

Went to HSBC Neath earlier , the walk past The Ambassador Hotel and then the Railway Station was an eyeopener , sadly common culture on our streets everywhere now .

Some real beauts hanging round that tanning saloon and offy across the way .

What a sight for visitors to Neath to witness at first hand and impressions made .

Appreciate there are some real unfortunates who really need help but have been left to carry on their downward spiral , Social Services are not a go to help centre anymore .

Up in Brum last year and tents pitched on grass verges along side main through roads to the City Centre , homeless and needy maybe but not a good look .

The stink of weed around my local Comprehensive School early morning is overpowering so how teachers cope and manage these pupils , how can they do it .

Players wages at any level are a difficult find to check , online sites will speculate of course .

If 10k per week is the going rate for good Championship players so be it , pay them that .
Dalling and Cabango will run down their contracts and leave on a freebie to whoever .
They as professional sportsmen will look for the best deal for themselves in their careers.
Length of Contract will be added to the bigger picture .
Potter got that wording right at Chelsea , 7 year contract and he is still living off it .

Rodon , James , Piroe and Roberts all gone to better deals and proved assets to their clubs .

Malcolm Struel alerted Tosh back in the very dark days , build a team to get to Division 1 .
His ideas got us to the top table of football , glory days .

Results , finances ownership and celebs spotted on camera in the crowd are the norm now.

None of the new options brought in attacking wise have not impressed me so far either .

Sure the Aussies who dislike us will be claiming costs in their settlement fees for the POMs .

So how far back to you have to go to see Governments mess up in history , UK as well .

Windrush Generation proved Britain can do good calls and be a fair Country .

Now many see us as a cash cow , make a fuss and the UK Goverment will throw money our way .

Politicians have The gift of the gab as my late mum used to say , great neigbours included and probably her long drawn out village gossip themes , she enjoyed gossip .

Now Politicians lie to feather their nests for their future nest egg and comfortable retirement package , voters are a payer on the gravy train ride I am on .

A few porkies on a CV and maybe stretching the truth out within limits is accepted .

The ability of the applicant to do the role asked for is more important than a list of passes .

Rachel Reeves it seems another liar at The Front Bench according to this Guido news .

Never come across this reporting in the media before , will look it up .

Aberfan 21-10-1966

Was 9 years old at the time , all was a bit over my head and did not take it all in .

My late Old Man insisted we drove up to Aberfan few days later in our old Cortina to just look at the carnage and understand this event .

I was bored and wanted to go home , no interest to me and told my dad that .

He looked at me and then I realised later in life he was so upset at them deaths .

Inquiry will come out with excuses , leafs on the track , signal problems and so on as usual.

Bottom line a paying customer to that business died as a result of awful management .

Network Rail , TfW will all blame each other for this accident , both get away scot free .

Question will be asked can a train driver want for £ 70k per annum to drive a potential death trap .

Awful loss of life to an innocent too , carraige staff must be in shock as well .

Geoff Capes RIP ...

He was at an event at Alton Towers many years ago plenty of photos and promotional apperance for the site .

He was happy enough to put his mug shot on the old Kodak film reel , no phones then .

Brian Jacks was also about then , Superstars Saturday night tele on the Beeb .

Geoff Capes , Daley Thompson , Ovett/Cram events were a must watch at that time .

Another growing up name passed on again sadly .

As mentioned in an earlier posting , Diane Abbott has surfaced again to stir up differances in our Society , what an agitator to throw fuel on the fire to get noticed .

And Corbyn wanted her to be his Home Secretary if he was elected as PM .

Looks like TATA is now investing money in a new Blast Furnace in India , so sorry PT .

Emissions and air pollution issues will be brushed off and forgotten .

There again UK paid half a billion to apprease TATA , money well spent elsewhere I suppose .

Thank goodness we have a chance to slag off and moan about our MPs in the UK .
Water off a ducks back to many but to others awfully losing their lives to nut jobs .

Dr. David Kelly and his WMD report a sore point to add .

All Goverments have hidden agendas , so many the public do not hear about at all .

Rather live where I am now than in some other Countries , we have problems here too .

Irrelevant of the bigger picture of Uncle Sams intentions under any Party in the future .

I just want to see if America elect Donald as their President again or Kamala .
Who needs soap operas when we look across The Pond at their dramas there .

Not got a vote of course in their bun fight , but another term of Trump maybe for me .

It will be a rollercoaster ride for the rest of The World with his hand on the big red button .

Really think UK and this awful Goverment we have will give him any sleepless nights .

We are alas small fry now on the Worlds top table , once we were better than this .

Comparisions with the George Floyd incident will not go unnoticed in certain areas , many of whom are hellbent on taking control of their Postcode area , supply and demand ensues .

Its our streets bro , don"t mess with our crew or else , seems gang warfare is rife now .

As quite rightly mentioned earlier in this debate , anybody up for taking the knee soon .

Ridiculous charade led by Football at the forefront of actions , why football teams , did not hear of any Hospital staff of all nationalities doing that gesture .

In other News our Human Rights Leader is now appalled at prisoners who are realesed early celebrating their freedom on the outside .
You made the call mush so your answer seems to be a re- evaluation on can be let out early now , yep but a bit late now though .

Guns in general , hate them , any loose cannon can get hold of one and do fatal damage .

Premier League managment is an opportunity , add on a big pay off if failure .

Graham Potter got it right at Chelsea , massive contract and got the termination deal later .

Attended John the Banks funeral in Cockett Church last week , really good turn out too .

He spoke well .

48 years of age knowing the horrible Big C will eventually take over your body .

So just how do you prepare for that conclusion to your life , God forbid I go there .

Keep fighting Sir Chris , maybe there might still be a small part in yourself to keep going and win against this terrible curse .
