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

    Why does your point stand? What actual evidence do you have that actually shows that she was hired purely to fulfil a diversity quota, or give the impression of diversity rather than based on their qualifications or skills? Or are you saying that simply because she is not a white male, she...

    [Politics] The Labour Government

    Just used the Guardian Budget Calculator. I'll have to work out which tax that is that I'm going to be paying extra. Mind you, it doesn't ask about bus fares - just driving.

    [Politics] The Labour Government

    The elderly farmers won't be the ones paying the tax though - it will be whoever the farm is left to. The initial views seem to be that it will actually only be the biggest estates that end up having to pay the IHT with something like an IHT free £3m for many...

    When you say 'Australians' turned it into a medicine.....The team were led by an Aussie and a German - they were the two that got the Nobel Prize (alongside Fleming) - with important strides in the development by an Englishman. So, we could equally say that penicillin medicine was invented by...

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

    I honestly can't see this having much impact so late in the day. Trumpists will just say it's fake news and AI generated. And the MAGA lot won't care anyway - they know he's a sleazebag, that's factored in already. Amazing that he gets away with so much really.

    Why would a novelty shop have a Crystal Palace kit? What's funny about Crystal Palace??

    Rising Damp, really? Still extremely watchable.

    [Humour] Comedy's that have aged well and those that haven't

    All this talk about Butterflies. For those of you who were actually at the match last night, instead of on the match-day thread - I shall rerun my comment about Weiffer having aged better than the rest of the cast. Apologies to those for whom this is a repeat - much like Butterflies for the...

    None at all. Because you are not right. He is saying he's proud that he has the most diverse administration. He's not saying that he set out specifically to hire a black female president.

    [Music] The Cure

    Yes - CD. £12.99 including postage. But I pre-ordered, and I see it's gone up to £13.99 now, plus £1.50 postage. I think there is a 'deluxe' version around the price you first mentioned.

    [Music] The Cure

    New album arrived today. Sounds pretty good, especially the final (rather bleak) track. Will give it a proper listen tomorrow when Mrs Bodian is out and I'm allowed to turn the stereo up.

    [Albion] Mats Wieffer SINGS on 5 year contract

    Not so sure. The pass against Wolves was just 'one of those things', and I defended him on that. He did okay last night. But standing around looking lost with extremely poor body language for the whole passage for the third goal really wasn't a good look. Fans have always forgiven errors -...

    So - you were wrong. So are you going to apologise for calling people 'leftwing scum' for challenging you on this?

    [Albion] Mats Wieffer SINGS on 5 year contract

    Yes - you're right. Collectively it was piss poor. But the thing is, us fans can't forgive a lack of effort - that's what the issue was here.

    Because they couldn't be classed as duels. Standing there whilst someone else waltzes around you is not a duel. It's not so much 'fault' (it wasn't just him, it was another collective effort) it was the fact that he didn't try. You'll see when you watch the highlights.
