Well if they didn't 'insist' then everyone, Hungary apart, fell in line 'voluntarily' despite not initially wanting to.

Short selling my take. Selling something you don't own. Not sure who in the hell lends them stock in the knowledge that they are going to try to devalue it. Oh yes certainly borrow my car I don't mind if you replace it with one of lesser value next week. My A*se

pretty much this but it will only 'click' when our strikers and others realise that you have to put the ball past the keeper, usually to either side and inside the white post thingies, and not kick it straight at him. We seem intent on giving opposition keepers a lot of catching practice, but no...

Can I refer you to Robert Peston's contribution that has been oft quoted throughout this thread and the section 'What is frustrating for AZ is that the extra talks with the European Commission led to no material changes to the contract, but wasted time on making arrangements to make the vaccine...

The government didn't just gamble on AZ or the EU manufacturers, they also spread the bet so that if any came in we were in the queue. Astrazeneca The UK has ordered 100m doses of the Covid vaccine being produced by the University of Oxford and Astrazeneca vaccine. Pfizer/Biontech The...

Got a greenhouse for the first time this year and although have grown previously outdoors want to try in my small polycarbonate greenhouse 6x4. Based in in the cooler climes of West Yorkshire so looking for any recommendations and advice as it must be getting on time to start sowing. I have a...

Nearly dived in last night when I saw it had been released a day early, but have it planned for tonight.

I miss the away days at lower league towns/grounds, somehow they were more enjoyable and friendly (in the more recent era say since Y2K). Don't want to be relegated though.

UHD on Sky is 'over the air' via your dish, and the others are internet based. Of course you can't compare them. Apples and pears. If as you say you have decent broadband then the problem lies with the processing and refresh rate of your TV, not the stream. As you have read others have no...

Incredible the difference in time using Prime on the firestick. 3 of us watched on Sunday each using a firestick all in different locations (with a whatsapp video conversation going at the same time). 2 of us were within seconds of each other but the other was over 20 seconds ahead. He had to...

That's because they worked with the government to put tracking chips in the vaccine and it's going to wipe out all non-Boris believers..

DAZN is very good at blocking VPNs. Only a few work.

Curious isn't it how the higher up in the chain you go the more reward you get, including all the way to the top person. I never understood that. There is a whacking great hole in most pension funds, fortunately mostly covered/protected by the Pension Protection Fund should the company go bust.

I'm looking at it from a DIFFERENT angle, devil's advocate and all. The fact that you think it's the WRONG angle belies an agenda. Please re-read the first 20 words in my post. I am saying nothing.

Now let me start by saying that in no way am I defending him or anything to do with him, but taking a simplistic view the other side of the coin is that this **** kept 13,000 mostly honest and mostly hardworking people in jobs for many years, and it sounds like someone did rather well out of his...

The 4K TV will upscale HD quite nicely

The local planning office will have attached a notice to a nearby lamppost or telegraph pole or fence nearby for all to see that pass by. Also as DavidinSouthampton mentioned, you can go online to your planning office and request to be notified of any or all applications made in your area at...
