of course you can

anyone is free to voluntarily pay extra tax

People wanted a bit of fun, but you are getting really riled up by how they chose to have it. Does it hurt you that they wanted Big Ben to bong, even if the money cold be better spent elsewhere? Do you engage in no frivolities, with your excesses going only to worthy causes?

I just love how triggered people were getting about it

Like it doesn't fucking matter either way

It really doesn't. I only started wanting it to happen because of people getting nasty about it. Personally don't see the point.

I don't see the point for that figure anywau

It bonged on New Year's didn't it?

What's the difference

The £500,000, as I understand it, was set to dissuade rather than being an honest figure.

Why the government dissuade it

Why would*

Brexit won them the election, you'd think they'd want to big it up a bit

it wouldnt cost much to make it an official day and a bank holiday

No it wouldn't

even if the 500k went to big ben, wouldn't it have sped the repairs up

I imagine they'll be a petition to have one

A bank holiday

like that'd be labour going back into the economy sooner surely

If it did anything other than line pockets I'd be fine with it

So uh the msp I posted about the other day has a history of bad takea

bought a gfx card ... arrived yesterday... nvidia just announced its dropping all its prices and starting some kinda gfx card price war... neat...

Return and re-order

nah it was only a £124 rx580 ... it would prolly cost me more in postage and packaging than the amount Id save

Can't believe that Trade Unionists and Labour still blame Thatcher for everything like fucking let it go.

i mean

How long until it's been a generation since the indyref?

the conservaties are unionists

Like those before her are the ones to actually blame.

@GalaxyBrainer I mean Trade Unionists.

It’s alright Orion Thatcher was what 30 years ago now. They’ve dropped it I promise. After all as PEP said Brexit is no longer an issue and no one will vote based on it because the issue is over now.

<:BIGBRAIN:501101491428392991>

Like they can't admit that 70's Labour was pure cancer.

imagine if scotland voted tory in the last election... the gov would be throwing money at scotland, because it knows it would be spent right

Scotland will go more Tory again.

It’s the only real opposition to the SNP now.

doot et

Especially if Brexit goes well.

Could hilariously have the Cons lose a few seats in England but make up with gains in the Scotland.
