    Trump

    At least Trump has finally agreed that he'd leave office if the electoral college vote goes against him... though obviously that would be the wrong decision because he won.

    Trump

    This hearing appears to be a bit of a Republican echo chamber - are there any Democrats involved at all? Edit: It isn't actually a formal hearing, it's an informational meeting. So Guiliani's three insider witnesses are in no danger of getting the subpoenas he suggested they'd need to...

    [Politics] 2020 US election - Joe Biden vs Donald Trump

    Probably just as well he isn't getting involved in anything to do with the Toxic Substances Control Act. Nice to see Trump promised to do something about those nasty chemicals... and has a month or so to follow through on that promise. Then it is over to Biden and HIS promise...

    [Politics] 2020 US election - Joe Biden vs Donald Trump

    The system is rigged against them! Massive fraud*! We have evidence! The Pennsylvania Judge, Judge Matthew Brann**, was an Obama appointee! It's a conspiracy! * No fraud has been claimed in court proceedings. ** Judge Matthew Brann is a Republican.

    [Help] Weird CH boiler behaviour - any thoughts pls?

    We inherited our one when we moved in about a year ago and I've had it on manual until a couple of weeks ago! Once you get your mind round the fact you now have two timers - one for boiler availability, and the other for target temperatures throughout the day - it is actually quite useful, and...

    [Albion] Pascal Groß 100 Prem appearance

    You can quite clearly see in the replays that he looked up and picked that pass. Fantastic bit of play.

    [Help] Weird CH boiler behaviour - any thoughts pls?

    Is the thermostat one of those ones that you can set different target temperatures throughout the day, or a traditional one where you just set one temperature?

    And he was so good at it, not only did he rig the machines in Georgia but he managed to rig the people doing the manual recount too! :eek:

    No, apparently Venezuela rigged the election... or something...

    Did Giuliani just slander Biden?

    [Music] Fairytale of New York - PC gone mad or correct decision?

    It should also be noted that the editorial teams at each of the BBC's radio stations are perfectly entitled to schedule whatever they like to be played provided it matches the remit of that station, and I don't really see the need to justify any specific decision to their audience.

    [Music] Fairytale of New York - PC gone mad or correct decision?

    Context is everything, the song is about a couple having an argument, set in 1940's New York. The use of the word is quite appropriate for the character using it in that context. Remember that words are not binary things, and their meanings can be quite fluid over time, and indeed, in the...

    [Football] What type of football daddy are you?

    I volunteer with Junior Orange's team, I hesitate to say coach as the I haven't done the level 1 qualification as yet, but did take the FA Playmaker course which I found very useful and eye-opening. I am very much of the positive reinforcement philosophy, rather than hairdrier. When a player...

    [Football] Dementia in football: Ex-players three and a half times more likely to die of condition

    I should clarify what 'banned' means in the English context. The FA guidance is not to include it in training at all for age groups up to and including under 11s. After that some very limited practice can be introduced, but it is made clear that it is not a priority. My personal thoughts are...

    Heading has already been banned in training at youth level in England by the FA.

    He pulls it out of his arse with all the other bollocks he talks. Pinocchio would be embarrassed by the lies President Trump has told. He is without doubt the biggistest liarer in all of American history, he could claim that on Twitter without it getting fact-checked.
