We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

Taxpayers Are Charged for the BBC Whether They Like it or Not Sat Nov 22, 2025 11:00 | Charlotte Gill
It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

I am grateful that the Royal Irish wasters are sent in first, those bunch of mammies boy tossers are great landmine detectors.
Lets kill any bastards who come back!
The word "bastards" is probably accurate in both meanings of the word.
Interestingly, going back to the First World War and beyond the Irish were typically always sent into battle first - or at least to the more lethal areas of any given scenario.
As most people are aware, during the 1970's and 80's Irish in the UK were subject to the same prejudices, invective and general racism as the islamic community are facing now.
Given our (recent) history I find it dissappointing (but not surprising) that the government considers the US and UK our "closest allies".
Has our temporary grasp of a few very transient dollars made us forget the last few decades? The US-centric process of globalisation as a whole renders smaller nations something like satellite states - too dependant economically on the US to take contrary political positions. As has been demonstrated today.
What about Irish prejudice against the Brits, as evidenced by this thread and a few others? Talk about whining hypocrisy...
Finbar, I don't recall ever seeing any signs here saying "no english need apply".
Finbores right, I agree with him, second rate Royal irish dredges should be sent in first, pseudo irish mongrels are expendable. Why sacrifice true blue pure blood brits, when we can get rif of irish mongrels.
The fact that you can't all admit your prejudice against the Brits, and yet you would jump up and down and wave your arms and scream every time something anti-Irish is said in the UK, shows how pathetic you are. When you're really put on the spot, you resort to satire, which is even more pathetic.
Why not try joining the human race?
what planet are you from? are you unaware of the uneven relationship which has existed between the two islands for the last 800 yrs?
i hope the imperialist mercenaries come back in body bags.
