Someone hasn't read Dom Cum's The Art of Cum.

No. 10 will appoint someone who is most likely English and will say horribly offensive stuff about Ireland and Northern Ireland, but has what Boris thinks is a vaguely Irish sounding name.

I wonder if Jason McCartney is busy.


Apparently Brandon Lewis is getting the post "as a punishment". Great message to send to NI.

Apparently they were training new staff at schiphol so it was nothing to do with brexit any way. Still all good fun though.

For a town with 11,200 residents, 76 houses does not seem significant. The house building program this country need should be nothing short of revolutionary in scope, with an increase of the housing stock of more than 50%.

I would love to see more inspired designs that what we have right now too, are there any proposals for mass housing construction?

All our builders are too busy on HS2 and the NI-Scotland Bridge.

I'm surprised by all the love for Burgeon in here. I know he's a lefty but whenever I've seen him talk he comes across as dumber than a box of particularly dumb rocks, like a claystone or greywacke or something. I'm not hugely thrilled by any of the candidates in either race really.

There's one more opportunity to extend in, I want to say, June, but otherwise we're out at the end of Dec 31st, no matter how completely unprepared we are.

We can extend any time up to the end of June, but that's the final chance. Boris has said multiple times we won't extend so who knows if he might be telling the truth this time.

So BoJo-a-GoGo, the mad Prime Minister is at it again.

Apparently the reason he hired Braveman was because the previous AG wouldn't come up with a way for England not to honour their Brexit obligations.
That is going to set a really good tone for all future deal negotiations.

The cuts to farming assistance begin

Harsh as it is, it's really hard to feel sorry for the stupid fucks. It's only the start too, the intention is to phase it out completely by next year.

Don't worry if you're a Farmer it's being replaced by a vague promise of a new system, something that Tories have never hosed up before.

The farmers can form a band with the fishermen and all play tiny violins while their industries die thanks to the Brexit they voted for.

I'm wondering whether we will even be able to remortgage when our current fixed rate expires, we were both working full time when we got it, and I'll be working part-time and she'll be self-employed by then. We can still trivially afford repayments, and the value of the house has dramatically increased, so I guess we'll see as and when the mortgage comes up.

I've been more or less ignoring it for a while, but I suspect I'm going to have to actually think about it before the interest rates skyrocket because of Brexit.

If you stay with the same lender but switch to a retention product there shouldn't be any looking into your finances.

New builds do have a reputation of being overpriced due to the Help To Buy scheme, but it varies hugely depending on when you bought and where. The best way to get an idea is get some estate agents round to value it, then err on the low side because that's what the mortgage valuer will do. When you get offered the new mortgage, the rate will be based on your LTV so if the valuation comes in +/- enough to stay within the LTV you discuss with the mortgage company then it should all be fine.
