@PaulEmbery
This is why we hold so many of our politicians in such low esteem - the mealy-mouthed circumlocution of a question with an either/or answer that delivers only a word-salad of platitudes.
I’d have more respect if she made a choice and defended it even if I disagreed with her.

6. Be secretly jealous of the blokes travelling without families, because they get 2 hours between clearing security and last call to down seven pints in the airport Wetherspoons

I’m sure the local police constabulary has data to confirm that there is a direct link between *checks notes* housing for the disabled & anti-social behaviour.
You know what’s most sad about this post? I checked your profile because I thought only a

But perhaps back in the cell the victim statements and sentencing can be played via audio on a continuous 24/7 loop…

The NYT's ability to report with any degree of insight on British society is even more tenuous than my prospects of double dating Margot Robbie & Charlize Theron

If the aggressor's name was instead Owen Faz'aranatunga the citing would has been referred to the International Court of Justice in The Hague...😂

Perhaps they can investigate the Oxford University Press for overseeing the dissemination of such transphobic tomes as the Oxford English Dictionary...

Have this with any interaction with EE, Virgin Media & Aviva. It comes across as a a standard mechanism to try and get you to instead interact with their (inevitably useless) website Chatbots.

Wolves had two

over two years. If you cannot accommodate one extra game a season whilst having ZERO European fixtures to play, then there's an argument that your squad management is not fit for purpose.
@suprememercian
There was a degree of nobless oblige which actually saw a number of shared values between upper and working classes - army service (whilst split between officer and enlisted ranks) was one such example

Have you made the same direct appeal on CCTV to members of the Chinese State Council?
Rarely have I been in agreement with Tony Blair, but him saying “don’t ask us to do a huge amount when frankly whatever we do in Britain is not really going to impact climate change.” is 🎯

The current government borrowed money because of a pandemic during which taxpayers subsided employment and businesses for a couple of years & then provided support during an energy crisis instigated by Russia.
Reeves is at best disingenuous by equating PFI with Covid spending.

In 80’s NYC, the 2 Martini lunch was standard. Companies like IBM had policies suggesting that if you’d had a 3rd you should refrain from taking client calls that afternoon.

Here’s the conundrum:

Trying to choose between “100 Person Orgy” & “What a Nation” is like asking whether you prefer Margot Robbie’s left or right nipple: both so exquisite you can’t in good conscience choose one over the other.

@OliverKamm
People underestimate the power of saying “Sorry” - it’s disarming and allows catharsis to begin. It’s really only in politics that it seems difficult to offer a sincere apology without attracting never ending denigration.

“I know - I’ll get up 55 minutes early to bake a ‘Breakfast Casserole’…”
55 minutes of my life I’d never get back and closer to arterial sclerosis.

Then Starmer only ever has to mention “Post Office” within any answer at PMQ’s to belated remind the electorate of what Sir Ed accomplished before touring British waterparks.

Kevin Bacon was in “Animal House” with the late Donald Sutherland, who played Mr. Bennett in the 2005 screen version of “Pride and Prejudice” in with Dame Judy played Lady Catherine de Bourg

It’s David Osland - his takes are often so dogmatic that Pol Pot would have found them outside his own Overton Window. Wolfie without the charm.

As a former BoE Economist I would have thought that you realised that its the BoE that sets rates and not the government. But let’s not allow an inconvenient truth to get in the way of proving oneself fit to govern (you’ve got a wide open goal and you are still trying your best

This is what I don’t get about X:
Seasoned investor not only shares the data that’s informed their positioning thesis, but has been pretty specific about their preferred method of expression.

As a thought exercise - would you be willing to have your kids entered into a “Geography Lottery” that determined to which town globally they’d be assigned at age 16?
