Mate I cannot be arsed arguing with people who just put their own readings onto everything. So, again, bye.
When we go full on cashless society a social credit system becomes easier to install. A glitch on line could render us unable to access funds .
I've always argued for the option digital or cash there must always be that choice.

Hello
To me this is just conspiracy theory nonsense, and I think those who go on about this, like your Piers Corbyns, undermine efforts to be sensible.

To me this is just dismissive nonsense and I think those who bring Piers Corbyn into the discussion undermine legit concerns.
Everything conspiracy nonsense till it happens.

Russell Brand.
Makes some good points.
Russell.
Brand.
Bloody hell.

Accuse discussion as being conspiracy nonsense shuts down the discussion.

Bit shit for that person who lost their cash though I guess.On a lighter note...found myself in Wimbledon today and went in to M&S food to see if there were any good yellow labels, what with half of the twats being away in Tuscany and what have you.
Anyway...picked up £4.35 worth of reduced fruit, paid in cash naturally, and then glancing down to pack me bag spotted some shrapnel in the vacated next-door machine’s change tray. Turned out to be a near max jackpot of £4.55. Left Wimbledon with a bag full of fruit and 20p up; I love cash
Yes I know he's made some bad points also.
But he did good exposure of Mark Collett many year's ago.

Hello
Not as much as putting you on ignore, though.

What about those who bring Russell Brand into the conversation?

Russell Brand is a conspiracy peddling loon adjacent to all the worst parts of the current mess we're in - hard line libertarians, Brexit enablers, men's rights activists, the lot.
Side with him and you're on the wrong side.

Linking to Russell Brand is an interesting way of trying to reject suggestions you're into conspiracy theories.

We don't need to bring anybody into it. I thought this was a discussion based on OUR opinions.

True enough; light and shade and all that.
But I wasn't going to hand it in to the shop.
Sorry my mistake didn't realise Russell Brand was branded far right.

Nah, he's gone in a polar opposite direction to any past leftiness. He's now rubbing shoulders with far right knobheads and is grifting with loads of conspirallon videos.
When these cunts talk about global elites, etc, they're not talking about the globalism we fought against in the 90s and 00s... they're talking about "liberal elites" anything remotely "woke" and "The Jews".

Point of order - Brand has always been a piece of shit.

That may well be the case. But not so long ago, he at least talked left.

Been an interesting read this and ftr I think all businesses should have to give the option for cash.
I live in a town up north (proper north, Sunderland) and I'm amazed how many places don't take cash now. The economy of my town has not recovered from lockdown/covid and there's places shutting all over - you'd think the ones struggling on would take any business they can get.
I have also experienced some snobbery by using cash. I even decided not to buy a book in waterstones in Newcastle yesterday as I couldn't see a proper cash register and if they'd said they don't take cash I'd have been embarrassed - it's like a source of shame.
Personally, I work full time and when I get paid I take out my 'pocket money' and once it has gone, that's me done and I'll just have to do without. If everywhere is cashless I will find it much harder to stay within my limits (I learned the hard way not to go out on the drink with a card instead of cash).
I have to visit London next month for the bairn's graduation and I am stressed how I will cope as she says pretty much everything is cashless now, especially public transport. I have a card but I don't have the phone thing my kids have (don't want it either).
Finally, I apologise for being an anarchist with savings - it's not for my retirement (if I even get there) it's only a couple of grand to give to my kids at some point when they're further on in life. I think I should probably try to save a bit more for them to bury me with.
Anyway, good thread
