It's harder for the tax man to track 😁

Many small businesses I know would rather card payments, because paying cash into the bank costs them more than the card charges do. 🤷

I think I've probably used a bank note once in the past month and maybe a coin at some point too to get a supermarket trolley.

Amazing how much energy is being spent this week by the right of British politics on something that is rapidly becoming an irrelevance

Why is the Paedophile in Chief negotiating on behalf of multinational businesses? Surely it's for the parties to a contract to negotiate the price?

The question remains; why?

Yes, the US could spend a Trillion dollars, and completely wiped out Iran, but why? What do they gain?

I wouldn't buy a AAA battery from Tesla!

Has she given up her UK passport? If yes, then she needs to be treated like any other foreigner. If no, she she should be billed for back tax.

But this post is talking about using it to force through legislation. That's the opposite of a filibuster.

In the UK occasionally the government will use the "guillotine" to limit debate. Usually if the law is something that they campaigned on and was in their election manifesto.

There's absolutely no guarantee they'd have won, and even if they did, it would probably cost a lot more than they paid him. It makes me angry that his dishonesty appears to have been rewarded, but in fairness, if they'd fought it, they'd still be criticised.

Even if fighting the case cost £100K, and they *still* had to pay Mandelson more than £75K?

It happens all the time in the business sector as well. If I had £1 for every time I've advised a business, to pay, because they want to fight a case "on principle", even though they could win, and it would still cost a lot more than simply paying a complainant to go away. 🤷

Yes. The "We agree with you on ... What are you going to do about ...?" approach is definitely better.

Once again, Ed Davey shows that he is better at questioning the Prime Minister with his two questions than Kemi Badenoch is with her six questions. #PMQs

Or he knows he'd lose. The first defence against defamation is that the claim was true. 🤫

Has Trump threatened to sue for defamation yet? 🤔

He's suing the BBC for broadcasting words he actually said! Surely he'll sue to prove he didn't rape a child!?

Did they bring along Steinway pianos for the campfire sing-along as well?

That petrol is 20p/L more expensive than my local garage.

This is the Trump who had to leave someone injured, because he felt sick at all the blood? That Trump?

A foreign one? Only police departments from countries other than the US are actually investigating.

What are the chances that the POTUS (Peadophile of The United States) committed sexual assault at his golf club in the UK?

Oh well, but at least we can agree? 🤫

Thank you Good Friday Agreement! 😂

It has the advantage of being honest, on this point. 🤷

But their children won't get an automatic seat .

I'm not an American, but isn't the filibuster used to talk out legislation? Keep talking until the bill runs out of time for debate and is shelved?

I hadn't realised that Kemi Badenoch had made the comment about a "tiny" portion of the electorate. I've been told for ages that it was an "invasion", and the UK was being "Islamified", that "Shania Courts" were replacing Magistrates and Crown courts. Now they're a "tiny part of the electorate" 🤷

It was never about a movie. It was about Bezos paying Danegeld. It didn't work for the Saxons, and it won't work for Amazon, but the losses will be written off against tax.

The most frictionless trade we can achieve is membership of the EU. The next best is full CU and Single Market membership.

There's never a cause *undue* concern. It's "undue". Three may be cause for concern though.
