Durham lost aswell great for the Bears

just on this subject, many years ago when a none too bright work mate told me he was going to be a dad. I asked him if he was going to be at the birth(it wan't all that common at the time) he said no. I said I think Id like to be and he told me to bugger off and wait till my own wife was preggers

I know its not quite so important but Durham was a washout today. Great news for the Bears

glad Durham drew

nah its a draw well done lads

Adios euro currency

why do you say that?

:-) @ Stevo

Basically there was a price glitch on their web site that allowed you to design and order the custom glasses for about 1/3 of the price. Put my order in for a pair that would usually cost about 160 quid and got email back from them with invoice details etc. When they realised it was a cock up on teh web site they cancelled the order - which is what most organisations would do. But they then followed it up with one saying that as a sign of goodwill on their part they would send me the glasses as per the order free of charge !!

Total result :-)

Absolute total result. Spot on

but tony I saw a politicians charity football match you played in when you to a freekick that went in off the wall. Typical more deflection

but if inflation is down next month does that mean they will have more cash

can anyone explain to me the difference between the NHS has more cash, but less in real terms

A very good player indeed. Welcome Charles to a club with no peers. When you retire from football you will realise the privelege you have had.

Isn't part of the problem that the West in general has lived beyond its means for many years and neither people or politicians have yet accepted that we may face a permanent reduction in living standards?

Politicians don't have to accept it - they don't face a permanent reduction in living standards.

this every time

dont forget right wing Tory spin and idealogical

I'm sorry I don't know who Richard Murphy is. All I can quote from a quick search on google exluding Telegraph and Mail is the ones I posted.

and whats the difference between avoidance and evasion

He researches tax dodging. He is probably the foremost authority on taxdodgers, and as a result is hated and attacked by them at every opportunity.

There are two answers to your second question. People working for tax dodgers will say that one's legal and one's illegal, and anything that's legal is by definition right and proper.

People not working for tax dodgers will say that the boundary between legal and illegal taxdodging is false and in any event frequently breached, and that taxdodgers lie and cheat to manipulate their returns so they appear to have avoided and not evaded tax.

Me. I say it's all the same pack of cards, and we need to get tough with these people. Take that tax, close them down, prosecute them like we do "benefit cheats" (though tax dodgers cost us far, far more money).

OK thanks, the only thing I dont get on this Murphy chap is on that link it says that tax avoidance is about £70m but on checking him he is an advisor to the TUC and yet they only quote £12bn, surely it would be in their interest to quote his higher figure. I do agree though that tax avoidance/evasion costs more

and whats the difference between avoidance and evasion

the deficit Accordiing to clegg was 180 Billion.

Tax evasion mosty from the rich in 200 Billion.

I think a lot of people can do that math...!

According to the Guardian and the commons public accounts committee the tax evasion may be £8.5bn The TUC thinks it might be £12bn

why are you one?

awol's gonna love this

knock off the ones who are not interested in Villa or those who dont want to buy anything that lost £30m+ last year

sorry I thought you were going to suggest someone

any luck?

So somebody then, no names, no one you know is interested, just somebody

And the alternative is who exactly

well they are nearly all Labour voters on here so if Randy is spending Millions and losing money he's great. If he wants to balance the books, he has no ambition, wants to sell the club, only in it for the profit etc,etc. To be honest if we had this poll 3 years ago I reckon the result would have been 99% in favour. For me he is still the best chairman in the league

How is he finished? He'll still be the head of a multi billion pound operation. He may have to rein back a bit but he will get anyone he wants. The people who are finished are those without his money who have upset the family.
