Not for me mate.
I'm quite happy with my lot.

Yes but it wont be your money with which you paying these people will it

The most vulnerable in society need to be looked after - the rest have every opportunity to progress - the pinnacle of their career could be signing off of a monthly payroll of 2,500 using someone else's money to pay them most couldn't even imagine such a lofty achievement

99%, given that is their share in the income stakes.

If the UK generates £1 and the tax bill on that is 40%, then of the 40p in tax, 39.6p should be paid by the people getting 99p and .04p is the fee charged from those who share in the 1p in income.

You decrying that some should learn to swim, or they can sink, is the politics of the far right, fascism and the Nazis. The fact that the parties you support are more than happy to blame 197,000 refugees for the hardship imposed on a population of 62,000,000 is further evidence that you're a supporter of blaming anyone else other than yourselves.

Genuine question. When you were in school, what parts of BRITISH history were you taught?

That link takes you to the A-level History syllabus.....not a mention of any of the colonisation of the planet and the rape and pillage by Britain on which the upper class wealth of the likes of Boris was built....plenty about Napoleon (we beat him), the Americans (they kept slaves), German aggression and loads of other stuff where Britain is GREAT.........the reality is that you've been spoon-fed a history that the upper classes want you to know, not the reality.

My 6 years of secondary education cost more than your average 2 up 2 down house in Northern Britain and I can claim to have received more "steps up" than most, but I was educated in a country that believed in ALL TRUTHS being told, not just the convenient ones. It would seem spoon feeding the lower classes stories of Otto Von Bismark with his pointy hat or the really short 5"11" Napoleon (both who you defeated) are more important that the stuff that mattered.....like why Israel is so hated by the Arabs (british thing), why India and Pakistan are at war (British Thing), why Hong Kong residents are rioting (British Thing), why Hitler rose to prominence so quickly after WWI (british thing)....oh, and who transported most of those african slaves that caused the US civil war.....yep, A british thing too. None of this is taught to your kids......why do you think that is?

You're happy to ignore this brainwashing, but decry one of the best things that Britain ever did......THE NHS.


EXAMPLE: My educators balanced the story of the original Irish Bloody Sunday, when the British drove armoured vehicles into Croke Park and opened fire on the crowd (another part of history you weren't taught) with the reality of the assassination of multiple british officers the night before by the IRA, in their beds, some beside their wives....it's about balance of information. The Black and Tans Burnt Cork after an ambush killing some of their troops....maybe a tad OTT in the revenge stakes, but I was told "the why".
Did you know that Winston Churchill planned the Galipoli campaign and as a result of its abject failure, left political life and went to the trenches racked with guilt?

Why aren't such stories taught to your youth? I think you know why, but you, like those duped into Brexit will never admit you were lied too....

Not sure that you're right about the "minority" aspect but, when "kids" come into the business, they aren't usually as driven as the person who started the business with blood, sweat and tears and of course, generally, are lacking in experience.
Work ethic is probably the most important attribute plus, some nouse on what makes things tick.

Younger managers often make "rookie" mistakes but, can more than make up for that with new ideas.
However, luck is definitely important as well.

Completely agree

Born in Hertfordshire, educated in the UK, Ireland and got my degree back in the UK and my doctorate in New Zealand. History is my hobby, marketing is my business.
I have no issues with the western World. I asked why is it that British kids aren't taught the truth about their history, but instead have to learn about things like the war of the roses from a TV series?
Genuine question for you
Did you know that Winston Churchill was the architect of the Galipoli campaign in WWI? Be truthful, because I'll admit that I had no idea until I moved to the southern hemisphere a decade ago, but I find it shocking the amount of air-bushed history british kids are fed

Erm, did you even read your own link?
