Or if one parent is British, or if they were born in the UK before 1982. Comparisons I have seen have the Irish system charging for more at the point of use. -

Re: Political authority is a lot like virginity, once it is gone it is very difficult to get back
IMO that's a fallacious argument for a number of reasons: 1 - It assumes the existence of reckless cyclists. Basically there aren't any in that area. That is one minor culture war I am fighting locally - against the folk myth about ASB created by poor police advice in the 1970s 1980s and 1990s when they believed in cutting… -

Re: The Life of Nigel – politicalbetting.com
It was said that the last time the late QEII got genuinely angry with someone, was when William, alongside his wife and three children, turned up at Sandringham from Windsor in an helicopter he’d flown himself. The now Prince of Wales was told in no uncertain terms that he’s never to travel with all of his children in the… -

Re: If you’re betting on the 2028 White House race take note – politicalbetting.com
The early 1970s was the final end of Bretton Woods and the sterling area. That played out the post war British model, which was still based on an imperial-style trading model, even though the physical empire was revealed as a sham in 1956. In 1973 Britain joined the EC and in the 1980s the UK (though really London) found a… -
Re: Robert Jenrick’s secret weapon: being a lawyer as the country loves lawyers – politicalbetting.com
Parties need time to reinvent themselves after long periods in Government - we saw it with the Conservatives after 18 years of office and Labour were the same after 13 years and the Conservatives are now the same after 14 years of leading the Government. It's a necessary process and it doesn't get done in five years… -
Re: Are you ready for Trump winning 2028? – politicalbetting.com
Seriously craven policy making continues. One of the government's greater failings is that it only blunders into being unpopular. It doesn't seem able to embrace it deliberately in the necessary pursuit of good policy. -
