A year ago, it was not possible to walk from ,say GG, to the brutal concrete magnificence of the cop shop without hearing conversational prime cuts about Schools and choice in passing - " We did not get out first choice and we have no option but to go private - the system has failed us and makes no provision for gifted children...blah blah blah " or variations thereof.




There is a new bleat on the streets and its commin at ya blud.....



" We cannot sell our house - literally cannot sell it, it has been on the market for 9 months and hardly a viewing....blah blah blah"



This is can be interpreted as " we are the asking market price of about 18 months ago for our extensilvely remodeled pokey Victorian terrace so we can move out to Sevenoaks/Guildford/St.Albans and take advantage of the grammar school system - ideally we want to get market peak for our own pomme de terre, but curiously , want to pay rock bottom prices for the detached mansion 200M from the best performing seconday school in Kent/herts/Cambs and we are so utterly pig headed about it, we will hang on with our unrealistic sale price until reality begins to nip at our stuck up fat arses"

Spot on snorky - the fantasy world of the last decade where the Chinese work their butts off for $US80 a month and live 8 to an apartment whilst lending their hard earned money to us so that we can live in an effortless colour supplement dream land trading houses to each other for ever increasing amounts whilst dreaming of second homes in Provence,nannies,reiki sessions, long holidays and leisurely Sunday mornings drinking 3 quid coffees and organic croissants and marvelling at the beauty of it all are well and truly over.


It?s not going to right itself next year ? a generational once in a century boom has turned to bust and we will have to live within our means ,work hard and save and realise that we are over paid ,over indulged welfare statist entitlement junkies to whom globally no one owes us a living.


The new ED was part of that fantasy.

Cheer up Quids all is not lost!, I remember reading an article about the Beenster and she said at the time (Autumn) that they were recording the next series of PL to be aired this Spring. Lots of people come a cropper what with the downturn...

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
