Is it correct that the current chancellor has NEVER had a job outside of a union or the Labour Party?
Let that sink in for a minute.... He is 66 and has never had a proper job.
God help GB.

Your bank will no more pay the bank levy than your TV set pays the licence free, your car the road duty or your house the council tax.
This tax will fall on all of us as borrowers or depositors. Banks can only COLLECT taxes, not PAY them. All taxes fall on humans.

Pretty poor of @CricketKenya not allowing the few spectators to watch the post match presentations in the Kuwait v Jersey game today.
As overseas visitors we have enjoyed wonderful hospitality until after the match today.

Well done to the Chancellor for taking advantage of being outside the EU by cutting tariffs on food.
(Pity his boss wants to talk about joining the EU customs union again.)

And a gentleman who played a tidy game of snooker in which he also represented Jersey, when I was tournament secretary of the Jersey Billiards and Snooker Association

A massive congratulations to Toby Britton who made his List A debut today v Kenya.
Toby also took his first Jersey list A wicket too, dismissing the Kenyan captain and finishing with figures of 1/38.
The first of many caps Toby, congrats mate!
