If the Sunak-Murtys have “no firm plans” to stay in Britain, will Sunak please resign and just fuck off?
He has no moral right to impose taxation on the British people, let alone the very poorest, whom he seems to have chosen to punish.
Can only a poor person govern now? Have we come to this?
No. Labourites are fine with rich and posh people. As long as they are Labourites. People from the same background who support other parties are scum.
More reverse genius from you on the very same day you made the case for a privatised railway with an exemplar that was - er - a nationalised railway. Bad day at the office. Tomorrow is another day.
That’s quite tolerable. I’d have the haddock fish cake and then the lamb skewers. For 12 quid
Nelson also has a Chinese. Which will probably be serviceable. I bet the French town of 30k people does not
You and I both know that that menu screams frozen bought in stuff to reheat or fry up.
But good selection, probably the only real option. Unless you make in time for the full English breakfast.
Are you so silly you don’t think most French bistros buy in frozen shit and do exactly the same? Do you really believe that cute French resto in a town of 30,000 people has a team of cheap labourers (in France! Lol) slicing the shallots and reducing the jus?
It is such a problem in France they have had to bring in laws to mark out the places that don’t do this
You are serious and oddly naive
“Earlier this week, top French chef Xavier Denamur claimed that three-quarters of meals served in French restaurants, brasseries and cafes are shipped from a factory and microwaved. It's not the first time in recent years that the once untouchable French Restaurant has taken a good bashing.”
Indeed and Parisian restaurants serving the reheated crap railed against the regulations to mark out what was prepared on site and what wasn't. Even at a basic bloody Nandos they grill the chicken on site, but in scores of Parisian restaurants (supposedly a global leader in cuisine) they were simply defrosting and microwaving pre-prepared dishes and serving them to unsuspecting punters.
In London you can walk around and go to most reasonable looking restaurants and get something decent, if you know where to go it can range from decent to incredible even on a reasonable budget. In Paris I don't think this is possible any longer, especially not on a budget.
This is why i always, in France, go for the grand old brasseries, especially the ones with seafood - oysters and cockles and clams on display
They make enough money they don’t need to overcharge and they are so big they can afford proper staff, And you can’t freeze a fucking oyster without ruining it
Have oysters and fruits de mer than andouilettes with chips and mustard. Bottle of house red. Sorted. Proper Gallic Happiness

I still can't see the traction in this given that he is a tory - this is what they do, and people still vote for them anyway. The scheme is lawful, and organised by the government.
And, as far as I can tell, Labour don't want to get rid of non dom status.
I should bloody well hope not. That really would be cutting off our noses to spite our feet.
Most of the commentary about non-dom status has been extremely ill-informed, but in the particular case of Mrs Sunak that is irrelevant, it's politically a non-starter to have someone in Rishi's position as party leader.
OR as Chancellor of the Exchequer.
The question I'm not musing on is how far up the greasy pole someone in Sunak's position can ascend without it looking awful.
Before the just passing through comment, I suspect Cabinet-but-not-to-do-with-money. Skin in the game and all that.
But if Mr S is tied to Mrs S (and I hope so) and Mrs S sees herself tied to India more than Britain, then sorry Rishi, you don't get to run the country, because of the likelihood of you going somewhere else. It's not a major deprivation; lots of people who want to be MPs and ministers don't get the chance either.
Someone must have known the facts of this all along. And the political consequences are obvious. What the hell were the Conservatives thinking?
That they can get away with it. Because fan boys will always find obscure reasons, like critics are being racist, or sexist, or trying to steal Indian taxes.
Trying to steal Indian taxes is a great one.
Once you see that, you realise that the poster is basically a malevolent idiot.
I don’t think I’m a malevolent idiot, but I’m just raising arguments against yours. You believe it’s untenable, I don’t. I think it may harm his electoral prospects. And that may mean he won’t get to be pm. Fine. But please don’t just insult someone for having a different viewpoint, or even just raising possible points. Otherwise a discussion never happens.
Did you claim that if Ms Murty were to regularise her status in the UK it would deprive India of taxes?
I don’t see it in this nested thread.
If you did, perhaps elsewhere, them I’m afraid I stand by my point. It’s a gratuitously bad faith argument to make.
I did claim that, but I am not well versed in tax affairs. Is your case that she should pay twice? In the U.K. and in India?
I wonder how much tax she does actually pay in India on her Indian income. Or might we find that affairs have been arranged so that little or none is paid there either?
It's possible. I'm not usually one for blaming the system but I doubt she is anything out of the ordinary amongst the very wealthy. How long has she been living here? A good few years I assume. If she isn't a British citizen does she have settled status? How can she be non-domiciled? That's absurd.
They previously lived in California and paid US tax.
