Politics, politics, politics (so long and thanks for all the fish)

Sorry, I should’ve used the term ‘avoidance’ not ‘evasion’, only Polanski will know if it was actually the latter.

This is an absolute brick show.

It's what a nation (driven by 24 hour news media) addicted to political chaos looks like. We are in the era of the PM as football manager - "He's no use. We haven't had growth in two months and our national defence looks leaky. Get a new one in!"

An ordinary punter wouldn't be able to tell the tax authorities they didn't get it right because they didn't know the rules, so it should be no different for Mr Polanski (as he's calling himself these days).

...You should cut down on your Boatlife, mate;
Pay some taxes!

"All the Greenies
so many Greenies
They all protest hand in hand
Manifesting bigger boobs
ahh boatlife"

I know it's "fringe party" stuff but the hypnosis boobs and changing your name to one that is linked to a possible child rapist is just weird.

His family name is Polanski, they changed it the other way to avoid antisemitism post war, then changed it back

There you go, you learn something everyday.
Thanks for the correction.

Er....but that's what anyone would say if they didn't literally know the rules up until the moment they were told the rules.
Then you rectify the issue post being told the rules

The only other pathway (towpath?) is he knew the rules?

The green councils are going to have a hard time collecting taxes from their residents. Any number of excuses

He's paid it. Zero hardship collecting it.

Whooaaa there. I know you're new here. You
Can't just do that - you must show outrage at being corrected, double down on your position and then argue the point for four pages until neither of you remember what you're arguing about.

Pfft.
Games gone. Ed Davey out

To be fair she didn't call him a child rapist.
She called him an enabler of child rapists.
They does seem too far - but it's clearly an issue; see Jess Phillips resignation letter

To be fair, with her grammar, it can be read as he is both a child rapist and also a paedophile enabler, rather than a child rapist enabler and a paedophile enabler.

First time I skimmed through it I didn't immediately link the enabler bit to both parts of the statement.

Yeh its a horrifically put together post.

Surprisingly, her grammar is correct.
"He's a child rapist and paedophile enabler" is as I've described it.
"He's a child rapist, and paedophile enabler" would be stating the two separate things.

TBF this comma is not a debate. She clearly isn't bright but she got this one right.
