Think of the poor unmarried mothers with half a dozen kids or more, each one with a different father.

Got to be looked after by the state.

As they love to say on trashy American TV........"you're my sister from another mister"

We keep a few grand in ISAs as an emergency fund instant access if we need it,  the rest is all in premium bonds had them since 2021 and no word of a lie we've won a few quid every month since we've had them,  don't know anything about stocks & shares and certainly at this stage in our lives don't see the point.

You don't need to know anything about stocks and shares, Mick. You just hand over your dosh to a fund manager and they invest it for you, according to chosen risk level. Then they take a cut every year now matter how the fund performs. 

. 

That would mean putting trust in somebody with our cash , what could possibly go wrong ?

Just seen a couple on telly who had quintuplets. How would that work? Only the first two born would get child benefits?

That's what we thought about 30 yrs ago ..... the name of the advisor should have been a clue .... he was called Grantham Fidler!

Grantham? Was he from Lincolnsausageshire? Could have been a young Opti, always wondered about him.

I thought Lord Opti was always young.  Like Peter Pan!

So it seems that Rach from Complaints might be on a sticky wicket, as it appears that she told a few porkies about the state of the nations finances to justify her tax and spend budget. 

Let's see if the media go into hysteria mode to get her to resign, like they would if a Tory Chancellor lied to Parliament and the country?
