Why are some people resorting to such unsavoury language?

I has the misfortune of sitting next to someone on Saturday who used the most foul and abusive language towards the ref and lino I've ever heard at a football match. It was relentless and he was actually screaming in a high pitched voice he was that angry.
There were two young girls in front of me aged about 14 and 15 who looked like sisters with their Mum. Both kept looking at this idiot and with extreme distress on their faces after some of the words he was using.

Totally unecessary and a complete enbarrassment to be associated with our club.
WEst stand near the away fans and if that was anyone on this board please think before using language like that

You could always contact the club fb. You can do it anonymously, can't remember the number, you just need the seat number and leave the rest to the club.

.It's looking like the best Labour can do is achieve a minority Government .
Meanwhile Nigel Farage insists the claims he made about the Tories offering jobs to some of his Brexit Party candidates is " fact " and also says Politics is " corrupted ".....lol.

Jennifer Arcuri sounds like a woman scorned because Boris won't answer her phone calls or cuts her off and won't speak to her...lol

Politics eh.......

I will take it for granted that Farage is telling ‘ porkies ‘ then.
As for Arcuri, she’s an opportunist. Plenty of smear campaigns gone on in this Election.
Should have been done two years ago and don’t anyone think that deal Boris negotiated was a good deal.
More than likely get his majority and then negotiate another deal.

For the record I won’t be any better in or out of the EU and I won’t be any better if Cons or Labour are in power, I will deal with it.

Surprised neither main party has proposed slashing the foreign aid budget (crazy to be giving money to China and India). Would solve a lot of our problems in one fell swoop.

Your post and, in particular, the claim of a 'wealth grab' is sadly typical of the anti-business narrative that appears to currently drive Labour. It's also wrong

Higher earning multiple mortgages were a response to rising house prices, not the cause of them. That was solely down to supply failing to keep up with demand. As for allowing people to take mortgages that would not be repaid into the borrower's 70s, what are you suggesting? That lenders practice age discrimination? That would be illegal after the Equality Act came into force.

Again, you report the situation as inevitable, that there was no alternative, nothing we could do to prevent the situation that now leads to millions of people unable to enjoy the basic security that we elders enjoy.

I'm suggesting that people should not have been allowed to take out mortgages beyond the scope of what they could afford to repay and repayments lasting longer than when they were, in normal circumstances, expected to retire and live on a pension. Isn't that just common sense? Would it have been so awful to deny this elasticity to people who were always going to struggle to repay their mortgage, or at least be tied to it well into retirement when we have simply created a situation where many young people simply don't have the slightest chance of such security even though they have good jobs? Seems hugely stacked in favour of us baby boomers again.

My posts have been entirely silent upon whether the current situation was inevitable. I was merely pointing out that it has nothing to do with lenders offering higher multiples and longer terms on mortgages.

I’m not sure that there was ever a significant amount of reckless lending and borrowing in the UK mortgage market and the risk of it happening has been greatly reduced by the imposition of affordability rules by the FSC. My point was and is that higher multiples and longer terms were a response to rising house prices and not the cause.
