I think that's right but she's making it clear that he should not be taking any credit, which as a politician he will almost automatically. |

I understand he still holds the GB shot put record, one he set in 1980!
Incredible, RIP. |

Correct and of course if you break the rules, justify your actions by finding someone else who also broke the rules to a greater extent. |

Bad judgement from Labour when viewed against Starmer's assertions that he's the paragon of virtue. |

Taking into account inflation from 1985 onwards and using £45,000 as your ' average investment ' your 'profit' would be around £100,000.
This does not take into account repairs, maintenance, insurances and other costs. So you could say a profit of £50,000 or so would be a reasonable guess.
If you invested £45,000 in 1985 in the FTSE 100 it would be worth £675,000 today, if you reinvested the dividends. Over the last 25 years you could have sheltered most of that in an ISA especially if you had a partner.
So you can argue that the capital gain on property needs to be calculated fairly, that is a complex matter that any sane government will avoid. So putting nil rate on your first home up to £175,000 for each spouse makes sense in that respect [Post edited 22 Oct 19:04]

There's much data being shared already. A breakdown of income and expenditure is available for each UK household.
The state being able to access to your bank account and withdraw money is a step too far for me. [Post edited 22 Oct 18:40]

You seem to be arguing with yourself, you can't both be right!

There's a video available of Kaba shooting the rival at a nightclub, I wonder which news outlets will publish it? |

I rather think that faced with a police roadblock and armed police I may surrender quite quickly. |

Yes, at present we seem to be borrowing, at least in part, every month to pay debt interest and fund the payroll. |
