    Rishi should knock the furlough scheme on the head and get people back to work.

    He should target it to things he's still keeping shut.
    Closing the furlough scheme won't get people back to work.

    No one furloughed themselves.



    Closing the furlough scheme will get more people back to work. Closing the furlough scheme will cause higher unemployment. Tricky for him.
    True.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Yeah, fortunately/unfortunately machines can keep knocking out he same high standard time and time again, if setup and looked after correctly.

    A knee on their neck is a good way to restrain someone.

    Not sure if unpopular but M&S Jaffa cakes better than the originals, the mini ones are even better but not as good as the Dolce Pingo (Portuguese supermarket) own brand.

    Original Jelly Babies have gone horrible, presumably due to someone deciding to go for a 'healthier' recipe. If I take Jelly Babies on a long run or bike ride I go cheap and nasty as they do a better job and taste nicer.

    I have not tried them but I would actually expect M&S jaffa cakes to be better than the originals.

    Surely there is a market for Jaffa cakes with an improved jelly:otherstuff ratio?

    Carb is rocket fuel, protein and fat are for losers. Nobody ever won a race by eating that crap...
    Yesterday I ate chips with cola, home baked pizza and fruit crumble, what's wrong with that?

    You forgot that you've already given me that badge. Is this some sort of lifetime achievement award ?

    People have a problem with pineapple on pizza.
    You've just taken it to a new level! 😉
