Not only his plums, takes a heavy blow to his head first from another brick, might've knocked some sense into him I suppose.

The other day certain people were lauding the police for getting 'stuck in' and 'taking no prisoners', today they're getting beaten up and their vans set on fire by the same people :shrug:

When I venture outside the people I follow, I find it fascinating/interesting and depressing. It's definitely good to read other viewpoints, but it seems that there is so much extreme views, with little balance or nuance, particularly from the right. Also sometimes get the impression I'm the...

I don't see what the police did as OTT, it seems reasonable and understandable in the circumstances, EXCEPT for the kick and particularly the stamp to the head whilst the bloke was lying face down on the floor after being tasered. The stamp in that situation is way out of line IMO.

Already been awarded. Also this bollox wont cost £28 million, but will be funded from a pot of £28 million awarded in 2022 by the Tory Government. The council said it was awarded £28 million in government funding from the Department for Transport in 2022 for the Bus Service Improvement Plan...

Take this with as big of a pinch of salt as you want.

Let's wait and see, apparently some analysis coming out today. I agree though that it looks very much like BS, but don’t underestimate the depths the Tories will have gone to to bluff, bluster and obfuscate, particularly knowing they were going to be losing power in a few weeks.

Sounds like there will be some documentation/analysis published later detailing the sums...

Around the time of her budget the unfunded tax cuts resutled in the interst rates on UK gilts to increase rapdily. Some people are still payign the price for that. It's true that she didnt directly affcet the BoE base rate.

I'm not sure, the policeman kicks and stamps on a person's head, whilst they're not moving and laying on the ground. Does the context significantly mitigate how serious that is? I don't think it will do, but maybe when we know the full story, if we ever do...

I guess 7-10, but wouldn't be surprised to get top 6, similarly wouldn't be that surprised if we end up in a relegation battle.

Vance giving his best David Brent impression there!

Covid, probably resting up.

On Betfair the decimal odds of Vance winning the election are 170; seems like a bet worth a few pounds?

Sounds like a 5-minute job to me :shrug:

Time for Kane to retire from international football.

Can't keep losing in finals...

Don't think I've ever seen someone being shot in the ear, but this is exactly what I expect it would look like :shrug:

He initially puts his hand to his ear, before going down.
