Re: Royal Family cost tax payer

Actually the money comes from the sovereign grant and the grant jumped from 15% to 25% of Crown Estate profits, in order to pay for Buckingham Palace renovations. This years grant is 80 million pounds a substantial increase on previous years. The arrangement hasn't always been without snarls. The gr...

Re: Will Trump make the Grade.

The Washington Post says today’s US trade figures show that Donald Trump’s trade policies aren’t helping the US economy. They also point out that the trade in goods deficit (ignoring services) has hit a record high. US posted record-breaking $891.2 billion merchandise trade deficit in 2018, despite ...

Re: Contractual penalty not paid - possible consequences?

I'm not surprised that you got knocked back at the first hurdle via a telephone enquiry, perhaps the more direct route of making an appointment and presenting at the Embassy/Consulate might gain a better result. However, it would be better for your friend to try and work out a deal with the company ...

Re: Grass roots Footie 2016/17 season

Instead of making Newcastle retake the penalty due to encroachment by a Newcastle player, he awarded an indirect freekick to Burton which was the wrong decision. If the score had remained 0 - 0 they may have had to come back and do it all again from the time of the penalty; just like the England und...

Re: God on this Earth! No way...

"Believe what you want"... Is similar to Aleister Crowley's "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law". This statement indicates that adherents, who are known as Thelemites, should seek out and follow their own true path in life, known as their True Will. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thelema

Re: Will Trump make the Grade.

The legitimacy of government has been on a slippery slope for some time, with Trump you’ll see that violence and power are actually opposites.

We see with Trump and his cronies an official political reality being enacted by the modern capitalist businessman. Politics and economics are, in Trump, indivisible.
