Seems so. Although very few will demonstrate their outrage at the City ownership, because they haven’t been told to be outraged by the media or our government.

‘Gas guzzlers’ are pretty unnecessary, yes. Loads of things are unnecessary and environmentally damaging. That around 30% of respondents either support or may support criminal damage of peoples’ property says everything you need to know about the absolute state of a lot of people on this forum...

Can intervene on anything if they think it could be a red.

But at the same time there would be a catastrophic downside to sacking thousands of frontline staff at a time when the frontline is already stretched thin. It’s not a zero sum game between freedom of choice and the prevention of Covid-19 transmission. If we had thousands willing to jump straight...

They won’t use traditional bookmakers, which offer poor odds anyway and as you say, will close down a winning account quickly. They use exchange (peer to peer) markets (Betfair being the most obvious example), but particularly Asian ones as I understand it as the liquidity is significantly higher.

Absolutely. Not everyone has an extended family (or much of a family at all!), me being one, so Boxing Day is just another day for me. This game likely to be the highlight of my Christmas by far.

Yes, these give the necessary perspective. As mentioned elsewhere, the ‘hospitalisation’ rate in London is skewed. It’d be far more accurate to describe it as ‘people in hospital with a current Covid infection’…’hospitalised’ makes it sound as though they’ve all been hospitalised by their covid...

Rightly or wrongly, this would be against the law if said person claims exemption, for which there is no legal requirement to prove. See:

We already did - we even got paid for the partnership in Bitcoin. Albion chief executive Paul Barber said, “We are pleased to welcome eToro as a major new partner for the new season ahead and we are really excited to be working with them. “We are keen to be at the forefront of bringing new...

Whatever you do, don’t bet at 50/1 bookie odds. The margin on these selections are generally huge and you’ll likely be betting at between 70/1 and 200/1 in terms of true probability. If you do end up gambling, at least do so on Betfair where the probability is accurate.

I’m late 20’s, not an old person vulnerable to scams, and yes I know the text is awfully written and full of misinformation. Quite literally the point of me posting it. FYI, Accurx are not fake: https://www.accurx.com/security-and-privacy/for-patients

My brother, not friend, but I can guarantee you all it’s not a fake text, not going to argue about it. He even rung the GP afterwards and got himself removed from their comms. Couldn’t care less if you don’t want to believe me! (And yes the link goes straight to the relevant NHS website.) Re...

It isn’t, it’s the same number all his GP-related info comes from…appointment reminders etc.

The Conservatives have nothing like a majority when it comes to a vote on vaccine passports, huge swathes of the backbenches were preparing to vote against it. 43 had already signed a declaration opposing them. Everything relied on Labour, the frontbench of which has intimated they could not...

You are of course correct - shame parts of the NHS don’t understand this. Attached is a screenshot my brother was sent a few weeks back by his GP.

By that logic I can’t ever celebrate anything the government does. As I’ve said, it needs parliamentary approval and they clearly don’t have the numbers, the same will be the case in three months. It’s a step in the right direction, delighted.

Also, the government can keep it ‘in reserve’ all it likes. The fact remains that they need Parliament to approve it, and they haven’t got the numbers. A significant factor in the row-back, I’m sure.

‘They literally announced it seven days ago’. Yes, and they ‘literally announced that vaccine passports would be discriminatory and they would not be introducing them’ four days before they were initially announced a few months ago. Whilst it’s true that they’ve had to manage an impossible...

Wouldn’t bother. Many people are absolutely desperate for passports and restrictions and will never admit they were wrong ‘because the government said they were going to do it’. Because what government ministers say they will do, always happens.

What a disgusting post.
