The place isn’t theirs and since such things are supposedly to help maintain the property and will be available to future occupants, I really don’t see the problem.
Have a virtual hug.
:hug:
Conversation is what places like this are all about.
When it starts to look like illogical hatred it grates - and I’m not blaming you but rather the cruddy organisations including our media that so brazenly promote such reactions.
Yes well it’s the Daily Mail what do you expect ?
As it’s a Tory rag it would seem that someone in Toryville doesn’t want to donate to Carries wall paper .
No, it’s not an “interpretation” - the photos are examples of Lytle’s “style”, which Symonds admires.
I have no idea about property ownership and responsibilities for the refurbishment for Nos 10 & 11 - other posters are privy to that sort of information.
Obviously, if Johnson is paying for the redecoration of private quarters then it is of little interest to anyone, except the millions who are “passionate” about home improvement (TV programmes, magazines, websites, etc.)
If the money is coming from the public purse then every taxpayer should take an interest in how their money is being spent.
In days gone past we had tittle-tattle on the doorstep.
This “story” is a no more than an odious modern equivalent; it certainly is not “news”.
But Zaps you don’t have to read it and get yourself all upset 
Who said I’m upset?
Show me and I’ll go get 'em!
You mean it isn’t your reading my posts that is getting you all upset.
Or is it you thinking that I’m upset that is getting you so upset?
:twisted:
I am not upset I just find it mildly amusing that you are getting your knickers in a twist over the PMs squeeze and wall paper .
Ta :hug: Its fine, I didn’t know the DM had picked up on it. I also thought it was amusing that it made sky news, but 
there ya go. I think the days of “real news” have long gone.
Gold wallpaper funded by a charity though?? [I]ducks and runs away
[/I]
Ducks need homes, too:
Sir Peter John Viggers was a British Conservative politician and lawyer who served as Member of Parliament (MP) for Gosport from 1974. He stepped down in 2010 as a result of the investigation of MPs’ expenses.
On 21 May 2009, The Daily Telegraph reported on Viggers’ claims as part of its investigation of MPs’ expenses, which it said showed Viggers was paid more than £30,000 for gardening expenses over three years. The paper noted in particular that Viggers had attempted to claim for a “pond feature” worth £1,645 which was identified as a “floating duck island”.
Ooooeer! That’s a bit fancy innit?? Lucky ducks!
Sadly, we never found out what wallpaper they had … 
Such exaggeration is in itself quite laughable; I’m finding it hilarious that your knickers are in such a twist reading my posts that you felt you had to respond with zero content relevant to the thread not just once, but three times.
Is there any possibility that you could comment upon the thread topic itself rather than about a person discussing the topic or are you purely attempting to provoke a negative response yourself, much like the subject of the thread?
Here’s a thought; you could try an FOI request.
My knickers are quite untwisted thank you I have commented on the thread but you are too busy getting irate over this trivial subject to notice
I have no problem with an investment to show decorum and pride in a country’s public places nor reasonable expenditures in leaders’ private residence. All of that should be proportional to the state of the nation’s current economy, however.
Timing is everything, however; alleged gold wallpaper in a pandemic doesn’t exactly sound wise - or true.
Pretty sure it would be duck egg blue, Omah 
Your psychic powers are obviously faulty today since there is absolutely no irritation; knicker-twisting; or upset here despite your continual allegations.
Sorry to dissapoint you there.
This is now four replies from you to something you think trivial and yet still not a single one of those has commented upon the thread topic despite your protestation to the contrary.
That in itself is very telling and will I’m sure confirm what I said earlier: that you are purely attempting to provoke a negative response from myself with zero interest in the topic under discussion.
Now you’ll need to find somebody else to feed you.
… with a flock finish … :!:
For heavens sake…Muddy…give it a rest!..
You have the cheek to talk about me…giving it a rest…
…with a few flying ducks on the wall Hilda Ogden style…
