Lawyers in the UK only make £80K?
"The average salary for a lawyer in the UK is around £60,000 to £68,700 per year, depending on experience and location."
"The average salary for lawyers in the U.S. is approximately $151,160, with a median annual wage of nearly $136,000. Salaries can vary significantly based on factors such as location, specialization, and experience."
Wow.

It's just a meme, Ultra, it's not like the cartoon Gammon will ever become an actual lawyer.
More chance of the dog, really.
However, the legal trades would hardly be the only profession where there is a discrepancy in wages.
Take the building trades for instance, where im inclined to believe people make a far better living in the USA.
The fact is, comparatively speaking, the average wage here in the UK is s@it, and the cost of living is only getting higher pcm.
"Yet so it is, we see the illiterate bulk of mankind that walk the high-road of plain common sense, and are governed by the dictates of nature, for the most part easy and undisturbed. To them nothing that is familiar appears unaccountable or difficult to comprehend."

They did get the English Bulldog on a leash right though. I've got one of those. She's an old gal, almost 13. Taking her for a walk is like steering a battleship.

Trump has reduced the price of drugs by 300, 600 1000%
So the dealers will be paying their customers. Apparently....

Yeah that sounded stupid but it's pretty obvious what he meant:
Quote: We pressed the White House to specifically address Trump’s promised “1,000%” decrease. His team responded only on condition of anonymity. This time, they said they had an example: in 2023, a certain drug was listed for $521 in the US versus just $45 in Australia, so the US price was roughly 1,000% higher.
But reducing the US price of this drug from $521 to $45 would be a 91% decrease, not a 1,000% cut. If the president wanted to say that some drugs cost 1,000% more in the US than in other countries, he could simply say that; instead, he has stuck with the phony claim of a looming 1,000% cut. https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/23/politics/...ices-trump
There's scripts that cost 300%, 600%, 1000% more in the USA than they do in other countries, and he (claimed!) he wanted to do away with that somehow.
But also Trump dumb, hur hur...
