Is it legal to alter your car exhaust and make it multiple times noisier than a regular car of the same model? Or is it just an arsehole move?

It's not a generalisation, it's speaking about cohorts/segments, which is a reasonable thing to do. Do you want every skeet to be followed up with something saying "obviously not everyone will vote along these lines, they are just helpful ways of segmenting voters" because to me, just taken as read.

All fun and games until it escapes containment isn't it. Go to @jonnelledge.bsky.social for tips I say.

Well I didn't think I'd be speaking to someone who had read the orange book, I'm out of my league!

He went to Orange Book meetings and they thought he was one of them!

Much more important than the boob stuff is that he was in the Lib Dems telling both sides of the party what they wanted to hear, until they twigged he was a relentless self-interested, self-publicist and he left.

Well Dorian, it involves touching RFK Jr...

Yes, fair dos. Those tweaks can make a big difference. As always though it's Hunt's NI cuts that have screwed everything.

That doesn't change anything in that skeet though? Was that directed at me?

What would you want these numbers to be?

"The top 10% of taxpayers paid 60% of all income tax in 2023–24, up from 35% in 1978–79. The share of income tax revenue contributed by the top 1% of taxpayers rose from 11% in 1978–79 to 29% in 2023–24"

The median taxpayer is paying historically low rates of taxes and needs to pay more.

I didn't go to the Gala, but I saw it yesterday and it hit my like a ton of bricks.

Must see.

Tears likely to be shed.

Agree. Shoehorning in the best players has always worked well enough for England.

@hannahfearn.bsky.social Have the government just invented Home Information Packs?

Two free cabin bags Jeremy, two...

I have contributed nothing to this community, have no concept of what's involved in producing the resources and I'd like free access to them immediately.

"I pity the fool" is just something BA said on The A Team, I haven't heard this episode, not really interested in hearing Van talk about serious movies, so can't comment.

I guess he's talking about the people who give them the time of day earlier in they day. If they didn't do that, you wouldn't then need to give them the time of day.

Haven't read it so can't comment. 😂

Here's me expecting actual journalists to go beyond the headline lol.

Dogs have to go everywhere now. This wouldn't have happened 10 years ago.

"Obviously not, no. It's a wedding..."

This idea that Reform is super popular with the young is for the birds. What would you guess the voting % were if you read this para?

Just catching up with that Young Tory article everyone was enjoying this week and walked straight into some nonsense.

Trying to conceive of getting a Frankie and Benny's delivered.... 😬
