Mostly the politics of infrastructure and economics. Say something prejudiced if you want blocking. That includes nationalists; even if you're Scottish.

That's not how I read it
It says they fixed the way Tories left it and the current state is as outlined

Well firstly, it's a £500 million increase
And secondly, social services is neither the entire budget nor infrastructure

2.3% is the measure in real terms
comment in response to
post
It's 2.3% up overall with considerably more spending on infrastructure. And that account is called Tory fibs.

I didn't vote for Tories any more than you did, but they were the UK government not the English one.

Sizewell C plus four SMRs from Rolls Royce makes 5, and they're all in England and Wales

You won't understand this, but you need to here it - you thinking people alive now have responsibility for something they didn't do simply because they're English, is racist
You're racist

I'm familiar with that word, but I'm not sure who you think's responsible.
Me?

Nobody alive now was a British colonialist
There's nobody left needing to address their behaviour

It's a vowel shift from toffee (but I'm not 100% certain the shift was made in America or the UK or both from a third word)

It's addressed in the first panel

Unfortunately a racist term outside of American English, so not one I thought of initially

It's not. It's austerity if you're cutting entitlements.

You can do that without it being austerity as long as entitlements don't get cut

Strong finish given a slow start, but I've got to know what happened with word two! Is that orange a letter that wasn't in word one?

It's specifically how privatisation in the US works. It's a symptom of things being priced to be compatible with multiple insurers. It's rare in other countries, even those with insurance based healthcare (private or not)
The hospital would still expect the full amount from the uninsured

Doesn't make it clear here, but I think when the next 6 monthly report comes out we'll find out that it depends at what point the employer got involved
A lot of these people will be working off debt. Brought to the country by the person who paid for their travel. Expect prosecutions for those

Do you?
You do. A lot of noisy people do. But does Scotland?
You're not going to enjoy hearing this from an Englishman - but you don't speak for Scotland

You're right, but I'll make sure there's a rebuttal for others to read before I block him
comment in response to

You think that being born in Scotland is worth more than living there and you think I'm a royalist because I'm English.
Both are wrong and racist
comment in response to
post
You're complaining to the wrong person. I don't care. I don't like nationalists, I think you're all half an inch from being fascists, but if you want to leave, leave
But to be clear - most Scots tried to remain in the union and the minority wouldn't drop it
comment in response to
post
It's not in another country. It's the UK parliament. That's the country you're in. It's where the Scottish MPs are.
You've made the same mistake as the bexiteers who thought we were ruled by the Belgiums

I only tend to holiday where there's an airport and a light rail system. Anywhere else would be all week planning journeys or spending as much again on taxis

If the two ports in Norway were Bergen and somewhere quite far up, you've done enough there to get more from the low countries

2014 was the time
Having repeated votes until one side gets what they want isn't democracy

Then leave. But stop complaining. No Scottish person has any fewer voting rights than any English person. We're all ruled by Westminster
