Would rather pay less for one item. Even buy 1 get one half price is a con if you don't need the second item. The first thing that should go through someone's head when buying something is... Do I need it? It wastes your money, and it produces unnecessary waste as well. Indeed mate, one item at a time and cheaper is the best option, but they don"t like that way, so two items that you use anyway, like bags of crisps or bleach , are best got if the price is cheaper than you pay seperately, simples, but eat what you have at the back of your cupboard before you buy anything!

The buy one get one free offers in the supermarket are to be banned by this nanny state government, can"t boris trust the british housewife to buy two items and save one for next week, saving a few shillings in the process? Does he think everybody has to eat two items at a time, without the will power to scoff the lot in one go? Come on boris, have some faith in the british housewife and stop taking her to the cleaners! You do realise, this is a pledge that the 'CONS' made to reduce obesity in our kids/lifestyle for the reduction of Salt,Sugar & Fat in our foods, that we, as a nation have become hooked on. LABour want to keep for the tax & personal gain.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Whether they should is a different matter, but I am an Irish citizen by descent and I imagine there are millions of others in a similar situation. I have an Irish passport as well and it makes no difference.

I have ditched my gb passport as it ran out, and got my Irish eu one instead, although born in Croydon and lived here all my life, I always want Ireland to beat England at everything they do, usually disappointed over the years but in the last decade the rugby has cheered me up and the football win for England in the friendly a couple of months ago was the first England win in 30 odd years!The EU passport is real freedom, ironic, as most brexiteers spouted freedom as a reason to leave, i call it lockin. I might settle in France, Spain, Portugal or Ireland, or even stay in Croydon, but its my choice, probably a place in two of the four, nothing to fancy,but freedom of movement , it don"t get better than that!
