My wife can do that; we'll be walking through town and she'll go "cor, he's changed since I last saw him at school 44 years ago"
She's rubbish with names though, she'll ask me things like "Who's that orange bloke, American, something to do with politics?"
Politics is, as ever, evolving.
In the 70s/80s (ignoring Northern Ireland) it was a two party race with a few fringe (mostly Liberal/LD) MPs.
The 90s saw the Lib Dems on the rise, mainly as a left of centre party but not averse to pitch themselves as anti-labour when it suited them.
The 2000s...
As I understand it, pension contributions are from pre-tax salary so if you put an extra £100 in it's actually cost you £80. However if you're a higher rate tax payer it only costs you £60. I was lucky enough to earn a bit over the 40% threshold for a while so I stuck £500 a month extra into it...
General consensus is to halve your age and put that much as a % into your "pot" (so if you're 40, then 20% of your salary into it).

There is a sliding scale, depending on where in the process you plead guilty. It ranges from one third (pleading guilty at the first opportunity*) to, IIRC, 10% for pleading guilty at the start of the trial. This is for all offences in a Magistrates court. Having said that, it doesn't always...
No injury would make it Common Assault, the maximum penally is 6 months imprisonment.
Any "Self defence" argument ends when he hits the bloke when he's on the floor.
It's not Affray. That's usually reserved for group action. Whether it is charged (if it is charged at all) as Common Assault or...
In England and Wales its Guilty or Not Guilty

In this case there is no doubt that the officer shot and killed Kaba so the belief shifts to his reason, whether he truly believed he was acting in...
