THREAD: You may have heard Priti Patel several nights ago at the daily briefing say that if you are unable to speak in an emergency to dial 999 and then press 55 and youโll be directly connected to the Police.
This isnโt STRICTLY true
๏ฟผAs a 999 operator by trade let me explain
so itโs important you are listening to the operators prompts, and reacting accordingly. ๐

@hughlaurie
It would be more accurate to say: if youโre unable to speak, dial 999, listen to what the operator is saying, and then when we prompt you, press 55.
Key pressing at the start of the call will be taken as random and not in response. Doing it when prompted is the key.
If you are in an emergency and unable to speak, dial 999, then listen to the 999 operator. We will prompt you that โIf youโre unable to speak but need an emergency service, tap the handset, cough, or make a noise.โ
Simply coming straight on and pressing 55 at the start of the call is more than likely going to result in your key presses being deemed random and the call a non-emergency, (which if itโs a genuine emergency would be a disaster)

This is clearly and definitively the correct answer. Test the waters with a trial period of it being her name in all but a legal sense.
Also, when in a few years she is happy with it and still wants it changed legally: do it.
Itโs her name. Let it be what she wants it to be.
@hughlaurie
Sorry Hugh but despite the Home Secretaries announcement the other night this isnโt strictly true
Iโm a 999 operator and this isnโt the process.
(1/3)
If at this point you press a key it will be taken as a direct response and the call connected to the police. It can be any key at this stage.
If you havenโt responded at this point but we have heard other background voices through the call you may be put onto an automated
Key pressing immediately at the start of the call will likely be taken as not in response to our expressions and seen as random key pressing - indeed itโs our procedure to take it that way.
The Home Secretary would have been more accurate if she said:
@NikkiA12
@StephenAtHome
@JKCorden
While this is absolutely a joke, having been on the show previously is in no way a disqualifier to coming back in another role.
Freema Agyeman was in Doomsday before she was Martha, Karen Gillan and Peter Capaldi were in Fires of Pompeii before they were Amy/12.

You see thats why I love Ryan. Ryan literally just wanted to GET THE MUSICAL DONE. He didnt care about being the star. He just wanted to get the musical done.

And indeed my personal favourite โwe canโt impeach him, itโll hurt me with my baseโ.
Flagrantly admitting that holding on to power is more important than the oath of office the Member of the House has taken.

@BBCBreaking
Except for the bit where he did no such thing. He has said lets get an election on the books the very moment we fix the biggest crisis in modern political history. He hasn't refused anything. He just isn't playing the PM's game (which, as leader of the Opposition, IS HIS JOB).

A lot of the major networks in the States literally stopped airing it half way through. MSNBC, NBC, ABC, CBS, they all dropped out, pointed out the lies and just refused to keep airing it.
Absolute scenes.

I particularly like โwe fought with himโ for that, because it has the duality of meaning. Lafayette and Mulligan fought ALONG with him, while Jefferson and Madison fought with him as in against him. But it WORKS BOTH WAYS for the actor.
managed it because I made myself persevere, because Poo's words hit me. Work at it, and it will come. Thank you Poo :) Your wise words gave me the will to go past my normal levels. To strive to be better. I'm so glad I did :)

@GrandPOOBear
then the level was beatable, and as such anyone, given the time and effort, could beat any level. It was about whether the player had the will to beat it. I've taken that very much to heart recently, and have been playing harder levels, levels out of my comfort zone. Today I (2/)

Hes not putting Roman down. He's just saying, probably correctly, that Roman probably won't be there 5-10 years from now, he'll transition like Rock and Cena before him
Orton is a lifer
Nothing wrong with either, so its not putting anyone down, its just 2 different perspectives
But that is STILL NOT ALL.

had the immense pleasure of beating this level (code below). It took just over an hour of grinding, of working out when to hit the koopas, when to no jump, when to full jump, but I finally did it. This is the lowest clear rate level I've ever beat (around 1.5%), and I (3/)

I mean, they sold every available ticket. Thatโs sort of the definition of a sellout.
If a football match had a sellout crowd in the stands would you say it wasnโt a sellout because no one was sat on the pitch?
They sold what they could sell.

To be clear this exact argument is made by the film. But sure, go off about something you havenโt seen and have formed an opinion on anyway.
The movie is very much ABOUT Barbieโs impact on women and feminism, and the pitfalls it caused along the way.

The first weekend Pokemon Go was a thing I went to my local Gym. There were 3 or 4 kids sat there playing, each taking the gym back and forth. I play it with a pokemon far stronger than theirs and win. They look around like โhuh, whoโs that?โ

Not often I'll defend WWEs treatment of NXT call ups which is always rubbish, but at least one of AOP has been injured pretty much constantly since shortly after they came up

Or, and hereโs a crazy idea: donโt gatekeep fandoms.
If someone likes one song, theyโre a fan.
Not everyone has to obsess and know every lyric of every obscure end of album track
Maybe they just love 22 (for example) and want to hear it live. Thats a legitimate reason to go

While I agree that journalistic standards have gone to the dogs, to be 1000% fair to the Beeb and others on this one occasion: Lancashire Fire announced they were attending a fire. So the journey went with an official source.

Like, whether you believe in a biblical creation story or not, and I should say, I donโt, at some point there was definitely a first woman. Humans havenโt been around forever. So at some point in the evolutionary cycle there was a first man and a first woman.
