Yep - John Thaw must be turning in his grave.
bloody attention seeker, 2nd time he's done this according to that article. Either go or stay but don't make silly threats with no substance or decent reason or ideas of solution.
Basically Ray say's 'the government is mugging me right off' yep lots of people feel the same but feel the pain more than Winstone. He's just got a cob on that his latest film was a flop
If he fancies dong a 'Sexy Beast', Spain's in the same shit, or worse, as we are here. If he goes to L.A, he's the sort that'll pine for Heinz Beans and PG Tips, and moan that the beer's not the same.
I've enjoyed a few things he's done but he's hardly ever stretched himself has he? Remenber the dire Henry VIII or Sweeny Tood? Lucky to have had the success he has had imo.
and can the daughter take that Grimshaw mate with her too. Go on the lot of you, b*ggar off
He also didn't seem to be "threatening" to leave. More that he thinks the government are ripping us off and he's had enough of it. To be fair, its what most people seem to think anyway!
Pmsl, so true
Agree. Like so many people, he just sounds disgusted at the mess and the mismanagement and the incompetance.

Typical kneejerk, begrudging reaction to someone perceived as wealthy, expressing a perfectly valid opinion. :rolleyes: What he earns or what he's worth is a moot point, he has as much right as anyone else to speak his mind.
Maybe instead of tax cuts for the wealthy they should pay a bit more and keep those hospitals open?
Tory papers would like people to believe that, using the usual divide and rule ploy, on Cameron's behalf..
Less than 1% of benefit claimants are on the fiddle.
Odds on it being attention seeking - 20/1
Odds on a sequel to The Sweeney - 10,000,000/1
Odds on doing more adverts in an irritating Cockney voice - Evens
Bet in play NAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!
Hear hear.
Perhaps instead of the Bedroom Tax Cameron could make the Mansion Tax law. Then Ray would see the potholes repaired and the hospitals get a bit more cash.
On the other hand, oh dear. Perhaps he'd have to pay it too......
:D:D:D
Yep to both these posts. Absolutely nothing wrong with his opinion but typical of the sneering attitudes of some people in this country who hate anyone who has done alright for themselves expressing an opinion out loud, despite the fact the same opinion is being repeated in pubs and offices throughout the country.
I agree with a lot of what he says but them I'm a 40% tax payer so my opinion is obviously far less valid than someone on benefits :rolleyes:
