Question Time Tonight
hampden_loon2878 replied to exile's topic in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere
To an extent it is but not in the numbers there have been, to much immigration too quickly is bad socially for a country ..I cant understand how people can hide behind the PC bullshit and claim the moral high ground -

Anyone who thinks immigration is not a problem in the uk and tries to take the moral high ground with it needs a good shake -
I have taken out a mortgage for 155k, my monthly payment is a little over 750, if there were to be a interest rise of 3% it would take my payment to ovrr 1100 a month..that is what i looked at when deciding if i could afford my mortgage, anymore than 3% i think i would be struggling...whats the chances of them rising above 3% in the near future? On another note, the amount of times i heard "im voting no because interest rates will rise if we vote yes" theres only one way they could go and that is up

Why was there not a bigger outcry at the time of mcreas death? -
That has been my experience, one freind in Particular stands out, he was undecided until the day before but voted yes, he said after he voted he was not that bothered.when the result came through he said to me"i cant believe how gutted i am i wasnt that bothered before the vote" maybe a case of wanting somthing more that you cant get

I love the irish and tbh slightly envious of them with regards to their culture, scotsgary1 you need to chill out, no need for the name calling we are cut from the same cloth, never understood the west of scotland mentality.

School Closures
hampden_loon2878 replied to hampden_loon2878's topic in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere
I am trying my best i have one that is 18months and another on the way haha,the problem with our village is that there was a slump in school children as a result of the housing boom 10 yearss ago, young families were getting out bid whenever there were closing dates(which was all the time for a while) now that the housing market has cooled there are a lot more children on the go although they are not school age yet, it doesnt help all the council houses are privitly owned now -
My local village primary school is under threat from closure and i am asking what would be the best way to help stop this, there are plenty if parents up in arms about this but have no way of venting this to people in authority.Are these decisions made at a local level? Or SG level and any advise would be apreciated

The stats i seen were 16-17 year olds voted yes by 71% ? So is this stat rubbish as i have seen it floating about a few times -
No shares were bought by myself, as i was told dont put money in shares you cant afford to lose, my freind on the other hand has thousands of pounds now pumped into then, he also has money on excite which own the bentley field, he also tried to get me to put shares on them but i did not although he sold it very well

Council Tax Bands
hampden_loon2878 replied to hampden_loon2878's topic in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere
I phined the coucil today and it appears that my solicitor should have spotted the potential for a band rise,oh well just have to go with it o suppose -
I recently moved house on the 1st august and bought the house in tax band D,,, i got a letter in yester with the following"Property is currently placed in band D however due to alterations completed prior to your purchase, i am now required to review that band to E" so my question is this, should the tax band not have been changed prior to me buying it and 2 can they back date me for it,,, to say i am not happy is an understament
