That's nothing new though, you only have to look at the history of pretty much any religious group to see that it didn't take long before it was all about money...

Boys, boys, boys, you are so superficial, the lot of you. I love the local churches, and frequent the lot of them. I would hate Father O'Connor to find out I was hanging out with the protestants, so I go to him at St. Thomas Moore, and I love and respect the vicar Diana at St Barnabus - so I am to be found there too.


I worship enough for the lot of you - so worry not, I have covered all the bases, and will get us all into heaven!

Oh my god I've just had a horrible vision of some Deity that's a cross between Mammon, Bacchus, Jade and Chantelle.

Perhaps they can set up the church in a newly converted Magdala where they'll worship by throwing money and alcopos through huge hooped earrings on to an altar made of lard encased in Burberry.


Yeeeesh *shudders*

After the miranets come the miniarets. Is that a foxton's mini that can't be moved because it's had it's tires nicked and been put on bricks while the estate agent was busy selling a ?750,000 broom cupboard as being 'perfect for a professional couple' because the bathroom was the size of a newborn tortoise perchance?


I'll go get some air shall I?

Whilst not disagreeing with you that a lot of the stuff sold at the Northcross Road market is "tat" (most markets though specialize in "tat" outlets - it is part of theri charm), I must rush to defend the quality of the cake(s) sold there. The cheesecake in particular is better than anything sold in local shops, chains or otherwise, and the chocolate cake is to die for.


And the relatively recent arrival of the English Cheese van (Fridays only) is a boon for those of us who suffer vertigo trying to mount the step outside "The Cheeseblock"...

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
