Thanks Paul, that way a laugh out loud moment. Unless the midterms are free and fair (unlikely) then the term βimpeachedβ looks likely to be consigned to history. Even in the short term (ish)
I will do a happy dance if Hesketh goes.

Left leaning and socially aware. Belfast. Love politics, my husband and my French Bulldog Cybil. I hate Brexit and all those that are responsible for it. #joinnow Also love cars, any type any age.

Our old neighbour was an army veteran. He never spoke about the tours he did but he did speak about the PTSD he suffers and the friends he lost.
He was embarrassed that I said he was a hero. He said he was doing his job.
He was a hero. I couldnβt do it.
You were ahead of the game. Unfortunately the advice usually goes unheard as there is always something more pressing to use the money for.
Short term thinking is rife in financial planning.
True but I live in NI and we are statistically the poorest area of GB. This may, therefore, proportionally affect us more. My post is to raise the saliency of NI as we are, at best, ignored.
The scandal is UK wide.
Agreed, but of course he wonβt. Nor ever would. Neither will the apparatchiks in the Pentagon who chose the target.
And donβt get me started on the Max Headroom copy as the βSecretary of Warβ
We need to treat our reservists and full time military with the respect they deserve.
Thank you for her service. (An Americanism but one that should be adopted)

True. But now the bastard has crossed to the dark side of Meta he is rich enough to afford the legal fees.
And he has the gall to try and flog a book.
But, boy, it would be popular.
They also crashed the economy, failed to invest when money was historically cheap and still claim to be the party of financial probity? π€·ββοΈ

I read another couple of posts that said that AI had located the target. 23k work in the Pentagon and yet no one checked first.
A war crime is still a war crime regardless of if you blame AI.
Congratulations. Itβs a good move. My advice to any mortgage owner is to try and over pay, if you can afford it. Even a little off the capital will not only reduce your interest it dramatically reduces your term.

And itβs instructive that the RW media is so out of step with the British public.
Again.
Not just LNG gas has jumped in cost:
Heating oil (in NI a majority of households use it for heating and hot water) has jumped from Β£320 for 500 litres to Β£617 just now.
Petrol from Β£1.23 a litre to Β£1.39
Pure profiteering.

And I strongly agree with you.
The results will be even more stark when the car is next filled up and the shopping bought.
And wait until the next price cap comes out.

It appears that Farage is blinded by the love of the tango fool into following him regardless of Farage known political touch.
Trump is historically unpopular and yet Farage jumps to his unhinged position on Iran.
Good, well done Nige! Keep it up.
The problem with a national political control of immigration is just that. It depends on the wim if that government, and the saliency of the immigration debate rather than sound financial policy.
It appears that Labour has fallen into the same trap that the Tories did.

Yes thatβs the logical conclusion. I guess with the definite shift to the left and the communication skills of Polanski it would appeal to the younger and financially insecure.
The young really have been screwed.

Agreed. My other half wanted to install it in the last project but the advice was it might be a turn off if we decided to sell the project rather than rent..
The same attitude was there five years ago about whole room insulation.
Thatβs now changedβ¦
