    [Politics] Why wasn't Reform represented at the Cenotaph?

    They are minority parties so don't get a main part

    [Travel] Trains (again), Safety

    GTR seem to think that the Liverpool cup tie was the only issue. It may be straw that broke the camel's back but it is an awful experience every midweek and most weekends. That's the reason I pay significantly for the seagull travel bus

    [Football] De Zerbi offers to resign as Marseilles coach

    That's a bit clever borrowing that contract offer from Greenwood :)

    [Albion] Will Dunk struggle to get back in the starting 11?…

    The key is being fully fit. We have rushed players back too often. We need a fully fit Dunk and/or Milner in the squad. When fully fit Dunk will be a starter. Probably for Igor. However next season will be jpvh plus one other as our 1st choice centre back pairing

    So you are commenting on something you didn't actually see with your own eyes or hear with your own ears but were piped through someone else's filters?

    Where were you sitting to say that? Boardroom?

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    Perhaps we should have a beer and discuss it. We could start the 'your real enemy are the people who don't understand why you vote the way you do party' and then sneak these laws in under the radar. If you can't beat them, join them

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    In the world of 280 character messages nobody does long form politics anymore. Back in the 70s, party political broadcasts were 10mins long. Each channel had a 1 hour political interview every Sunday (itv weekend world was shining example whether Peter Jay or brian walden) at elections every...

    [Albion] Chelsea "fans" abuse

    He got a few bites saying this on another football cast so it's his new latest shtick. It's never about facts it always notoriety for a man with short arse syndrome and a desperate need to be famous for whatever reason

    Shapiro had a close escape as he was considered for VP pick. Him and Buttigieg seem a likely pairing for the primaries

    [Politics] John Nott - RIP

    He (like lord carrington) offered his resignation when the Falklands were invaded. Mrs thatcher didn't accept his. Politicians with principles eh

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    Unless I missed it on here This is the breakdown by demographic. In short white male 45 to 64 is the key population (and indeed it filters more into 50 to 64) were the major trump voters It seems every other major demographic split except - males 20 to 30 - non degree level education voted...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    9 I thought the uk rejected the offer made by Trump late 2020 as it would have killed the airbus business in the UK. Truss apparently made the decision on officials advice

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    Roe v wade was overturned by the supreme court. A dem administration could have enshrined into federal law rather than make it a state by state issue. So you are correct there is going to be no difference and that is the problem.

    [Misc] As if today couldn't have got any worse...

    I cooked a curried lentil and paneer pie. To be served with tenderstem broccoli. My children ate theirs 1st and I am now aware that someone (or ones) took seconds and there isn't enough for both myself and Mrs ROSM She is on her way back from London. I suspect I should do the honourable thing...

    [Technology] Has anybody come off of Twitter / X? How easy did you find it?

    A question to the hive mind of nsc Since the ability to pay for blue ticks, promotion of those people and the use of ai/bots amplifying certain themes, I have posted on it less and less. I'm kind of thinking now is the time to drop off it altogether but am interested in whether others have and...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    Changing this thread slightly, it would seem that the Labour Govt were better prepared for this than many of us (and certainly I) was. The new Trump administration are making positive noises about the meeting they held with Starmer and Lammy in New York a few weeks ago (where Lammy even got...

    One person who voiced similar comments to lammy has just been elected vice president. His comments were back in 2017. Given what happened during that presidency, he wasn't wrong. It is better to have a wary person now dealing with Trump than a sycophant. The uk economy will be impacted if...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    If you see someone who is intent on putting their head in a deep fat fryer then you would hope to persuade them. People may try calm reasoning, they may resort to yelling at them. If that person says they were told to do it as it would help them then your responses may become more urgent and...
