20% on goods from EU 10% for UK Sounds like a trade deal to get it to 0% is in fairly easy reach..UK will have to drop the digital services tax but that's a daft idea anyway.. Not shedding any tears for the EU..when they had the whip hand over Brexit they tried to grab NI and close down the City. M...

Fuck em let them burn (I'm not over the 30-3 game).

So.my question is should England practice heading the ball forward? Thread last three times it's happened we have scored.

Ford was pretty bloody good at the end wasn't he? I think he's being quietly brilliant for a while. Long term the Smiths are probably better options but would not at all upset if he was starting at ten.

Achh it's the hope that kills you

Fucken bullshit

Game on..cmon Scotland

Cmon lads

That’s a good reminder, if anyone needed one before tomorrow, of why every England side has to respect a trip to Wales. The mini Welsh showed superb character and defended like Trojans, it felt like so many England Wales games where we have failed to find a plan B. Ref was utterly appalling, it cos...

Agree the ref was appalling. Felt England were incredibly one dimensional though. Getting one of the big uns to run hard at the 10-13 channel didn't work. Wales knew exactly what was coming and flooded the contact area with tacklers. There was no attempt to attack the fringes or out a kick in behind...

Class.

Both sides trying to play

Are the Brexiteers part of Europe now? Unbelievably given the situation the EU wants to link closer security and defence ties to renegotiating access to UK fishing grounds. I voted remain but in geopolitical terms we are way past tue Brexit era and this kinda thing needs to be stopped. I also think...

As much as Vance is a cock he is correct that most wars end by negotiation and Ukraine has neither the man power nor support to reclaim the lands Russia have who are now advancing daily. Europe does have to wake up a bit and realise that. I totally agree with this. Distasteful as it is Zelensky has...

The better outcome is that was a show for the maga cretins..I really fucken hope so. More likely it's apparent the world's most powerful country is run by obnoxious arseholes and we are all in alot of trouble. Here is where I am maybe being controversial..Zelensky should have not responded to the ve...

Who from Scotland is likely to miss the England game?

[quote=KingBlairhorn post_id=393257 time=<a href="tel:1739119170">1739119170</a> user_id=465] It’s probably sour grapes but I genuinely think we’ve been really hard done by here. We’ve been shit, but we have got nothing from the ref. Ireland got away with lots at the breakdown. Don't worr...

Ireland got away with lots at the breakdown.

Don't worry it will swing back your way in two weeks time

Daly clearly has his issues but my goodness that was an excellent line and exactly what we’ve been crying out for from an experienced player off the bench. Adding a winner today to his one in Cardiff 2017 places him into English rugby lore in a way I am deeply happy about Yeah really enjoyed how we...

I understand why everyone loves beating England: We are shit We are slow We are badly coached We have few world class players We bang on about winning the RWC and numerous other finals We have Marcus smith And yet we pull wins like that out of the hat. Very undeserved, awful game, but a funny end f...

Nice from OL

Good finish..Englands luck run out

Nicola Sturgeon and Peter Murrell divorcing. More charges incoming for Murrell? Nicola Sturgeon has announced her divorce from her long-term partner Peter Murrell, who was previously the chief executive of the Scottish National party. Their decision to split is not unexpected: it is understood Stur...

The WASPI women are the most pathetic and least sympathetic campaign group I’ve ever seen. Boo hoo I only had the best part of a decade to change my financial plans for a very short period of time, please give us £10bn at a time when anyone working is having the life squeezed out of them Absolutely...

Good example of why we need a high capacity grid:

https://x.com/twallin_james/status/1862 ... 57872?s=19

Fwiw I have no problem with a regional pricing scheme that rewards places for adding power generation to the grid

The more I think about the more obnoxious this was.

At least Johnson had a mandate for Brexit. Giving a million none European immigrants visas was just going totally rogue.

Just caught up on Sweeney using the Woman's win % to bump the overall % and get his bonus.

I mean it's kind of appropriate if we really must treat the women's game as being a equivalent in every respect for the mens. I hope the girls are making 20k a game and get six figure salaries from their clubs.

Just read only 16% of non EU migrants were via work visas.

JFC.

Politicians don't have answers to difficult ageing population and labour supply problems so opening the border to foreign labour is a salve. The problem is they get old and bring dependants and it just snowballs the problem.

That's a shocking number and completely socially and economically insubstantable.

What on earth where our political leaders thinking? There is no consent for this level of immigration.

Another try saver from Smith.

Edit not enough..very good offloads to create that.

Japan's conditioning and techniques for taking the ball into contact does look sharp. Good body positions and leg drive.

Smith always seems to be under pressure from the shot clock

Nice bit of skill

Good way for Scotland to end that. Excellent win in the end. Now the real question is whether they can break the Ireland/France lock on the top 2 in the 6N. Spoiler alert. We can't. We won't win both away in London and away in Paris. And Ireland at home. Or away. We should pump England though Bookm...

Why not? Our geography makes a wind farm in Scotland more valuable than most other places. Should we just say 'no, it's fine, we'll just take a pittance for it?'. That would be stupid. The wind isnt a resource until you build windmills to turn it into electricity and connect them to the grid..unles...

Boys vs men

That seals it.

So fucking annoyed with England.
So many poor decisions in that last ten

Fuck me that's a really annoying 5 minutes

Very very stupid from England
