Burgers are, obviously, fast food. But that doesn't mean you can't have opinions on them, that you can't say that one burger place is better than another. I'd never make the argument that they're fine dining, that'd be idiotic, but to claim that all burgers are the same because they're fast food...
I would agree with the assessment that he was poor in the first half and then became magnificent in the second half. That's also true of a lot of the team, particularly in mid-field, but I think Bong improved by more than anyone on the pitch.
That's like saying all steaks are equivalent. A good steak cooked well is very different from a cheap steak cooked badly. Surely you think that's true?
So there was a Lord Lieutenant of East Sussex prior to that? Even the Lord Lieutenant's website says it was just Sussex until 1974, when it was split into Lord Lieutenants for East and West Sussex.
My essential point being that one of the definitions of county seems to be the area that a Lord...
Ah, I have (alas) been mislead by contradictory pieces of information on Wikipedia and other explanations of the Acts. While it says the East Sussex was not created a lieutenancy area until 1997, it also says there has been a Lord Lieutenant since 1974. So it would appear it didn't exist a...
Ah, interestingly, East Sussex County Council seems to have existed before East Sussex did (sort of). From 1889 East Sussex was an administrative county, while the lieutenancy area was still Sussex. In 1974 (based on the 1972 Local Government Act) it became a non-metropolitan county, which seems...
Yup.
Brighton and Hove is in the Historical County of Sussex, and in the Ceremonial County of East Sussex. I believe East Sussex as a formal county was created in the 70s? It appears the Ceremonial County didn't exist until 1997 though.
I will happily eat a fry up without beans, but beans are very welcome to be there. Are they as vital as sausages or bacon? No. But they still have a role to play.
The Ulloa goal against Forest. Was watching it in the pub and the whole place pretty much exploded. I started pounding the table for some reason and left my hands aching.
They're aware. They're fully aware. As Caroline Lucas noted in the Argus "MPs have chased ministers down corridors, set up an All Party Parliamentary Group, put down parliamentary questions and written countless letters to those responsible for this mess.". So they know exactly what's going on...
Do you know why this system was set up? It was because George III had those estates, but needed cash. So he gave the money from them to the Treasury, and they gave back some money on the bet that the estates would be worth more over time. It was a very, very good bet.
As you point out, it's...
The Crown Estates is not technically owned by the Monarch, but is effectively the Monarch's. It's complicated and dates back George III. If it is just the Sovereign Grant money that's going on it then the taxpayer isn't down any money. If a larger amount of the Crown Estates profits are spent on...
Ah, thanks to Thunder Bolt for informing it's coming out of the Sovereign Grant. I have no issue with that really. If it's coming direct out of that, with no other tax payer money topping up etc..., I have no issue.
Agree with Easy 10 really, just too problematic and it's not really going to improve things. You look at the amount of time they spend pouring over marginal calls on MOTD and the like without coming to a definitive answer. So many calls are judgement calls, particularly when you look at elements...
