The company I work for has pushed through a slew of CPI's on the goods we produce, and there's more to come too. All of them have been in the +20%-30% range. In the years I've worked there, I've never known a reduction. Whilst the supermarkets may want to be competitive, they will always have to...

What the betting that the hikes in the prices of goods on the shelves due to all of this won't go back down, as the cost of fuel does?

Probably not. The Universe is still expanding, so those very distant galaxies will get further and further away until, theoretically anyway, they disappear from view as their recession velocity exceeds that of light. We could maybe do it for stars within our own galaxy, but if we survive long...

I was sitting along the row to your right with my family. We had a thoroughly good time. We brought a small picnic and a bottle of wine. Forgot to bring cushions, though. We love BOAT and go numerous time every year. My son does a show there every year with his Youth Theatre group. We have had...

Too far gone for that, I'm afraid. With our current understanding, the furthest back we could see is about 370,000 years after the Big Bang, when recombination happened. Before then, the Universe was just a hot plasma that was opaque to EM radiation, so the mean free path between particles was...

The Russians really are full of s**t. "Withdrawn as a gesture of goodwill...", nothing to do with Ukraine shelling the island wih the longer range weapons the West have recently supplied then, oh no... 10:00 Russia confirms withdrawal from Snake Island...

I think some states also prosecute anyone helping a woman to cross a state line to get an abortion.

I thought was a very reasonable and level headed assessment of the state of affairs in the war and what to expect going forward. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGnkISdIrz4

Only 13 years to go...

When my mum passed away, this is what the man she was married to did. He sold their home, had the cat put down and bought a static home on a site down in Cornwall. Sounds idyllic, right? The place was a shithole, it was over 55's, no dogs, only 1 cat per home allowed, no kids allowed. When he...

I remember watching a 40+ year old Jimmy Case dominating games and barely moving more than 6 yards side to side and never breaking into anything more than a jog.

Valerie by Amy Winehouse. She takes a pretty decent song and proceeds to murder it in public.

I'd say the best way to ensure a Tory defeat at the next GE is to keep Johnson in office.
