Hello fellow ED'ers, happy VE Day!


I was wondering if there were any VE day street parties planned today? Naturally, in these current times, responsible socially distanced ones.


I have a large coolbox with plenty of British ales, gin & tonics, and other fancy treats from M&S that i'd love to share around the community. Unfortunately my close neighbours in my street seem to have all fled to second homes or B&B's in the countryside to sit out the pandemic, so if anyone is having a bit of a knees up this afternoon, please post here and i will come and join to celebrate a very important and historic day.

Sky News seemed to just do two locations


There was that conga with a rope mind - not sure about it. I admit I love to see horror in the European papers about what the Brits are doing now :)

A search for "conga fury" sees many more including a pub in Greenwich that allegedly opened.

    • Dishing the dirt is generally fine when it comes to politicians and in Farage's case he often deserves it but  nothing illegal  has been done. It is not illegal for him to give his partner a sizeable amount of money with which to buy a house and have it registered in her name. He is 64 years old and his partner is 16 years younger and so he most likely is making plans to minimise IHT. There is a sliding scale for IHT but basically a gift is free of IHT if the gift is made 7 years before the donor dies. Farage is 64 years old and his partner is 16 years younger. In 7 years time, if he lives that long, he will be 71 years old. Given that he smokes like a chimney and drinks like a fish, his odds on getting beyond 71  years may be pretty slim.  A similar  process is followed by the "bank of mum and dad"  where parents  give money to their kids to fund purchase of a property. Many who are not cash rich will mortgage their home and so release equity to fund their kids property. We did it as have many of our friends.
