    Own a house then get back to me

      I own a house. I work and I hire people if I can’t fix something myself. So far I’ve only had to do that once in 4 years. Owning a house is not a job. Landlord literally has “LORD” in the name… kinda hard to defend, friend.

        That’s the strangest argument I’ve heard in a while. Owning a house isn’t a job but maintaining one is. Plumbing, electrical, carpentry, roofing, HVAC are all jobs and if you don’t think so you must be one of these Republicans that think a person who gets their hands dirty doesn’t deserve a living wage.

          I think you just agreed with each other a little bit.

          A plumber or a sparky doesn’t just maintain one house, and if they’re just doing maintenance, probably work on hundreds of houses a year. Maintaining your own house takes a fraction of the time and effort of working a housing-related trade full time.

        Your comment doesn’t make sense and is confusing. Are you AI?

                I challenge anyone to disconnect the water feed, remove the top part of the siphon, remove the likely rusted manky bolts holding the cistern, remove the bottom part of the siphon, clean the whole lot up where the foam ring has turned to mush, remove the old filler mechanism, replace it, plus the siphon, bolt the cistern back to the toilet, reconnect water supply, adjust fill height of both the siphon and the filler, then install the push button and test. Then clean up behind yourself

                In ten minutes 😂

                Bear in mind the guy you’re speaking to is a yank and their plumbing makes the fucking Roman bathhouses look modern lmao

          So you know full well your property is an investment and as such not working taxes.

          As starmer said. Not the out right lie the telegraph claims he “suggested”.

          Hi exact words when asked. Not by the definition we are using. So clearly relating to the definition working taxes not people.

          Stop falling for right wing media bullshit.
