Trump is alreadty calling electoral fraud whilst the polls are still open. Guess he isnt confident of a win.

If Sunak can stitch up the other 7 or 8 Knuts he had to employ in his Tory Government of Party Unity he might actually be able to build a capable team and claw back some credibility

Did you see he was teling people on Twitter to vote Republican a couple of hours ago? Would be hilarious if he trashes his $40 billion purchase

Nah thats still gas 😊

Who?

Way more than 10%. Because the price of electricity is tied to the price of gas its not just companies like BP and Shell which have massive windfall profits but all the electricity generators too, including renewables. So wind power got three times more expensive because the price of gas went up. How crazy is that?

I'm horrified you choose Celebrations when Quality Street is available.

tbf you have pretty much nailed it, except honeycomb crunch which goes straight in the bin.

Floorplans in house sales brochures with no room dimensions or sq feet / metres. If someone is spending £200k, £500k, £1m or whatever at least tell them what size it is.

Ak okay. Probably wannabes rather than actors then. It does look a bit homespun.

Interesting. Where did you find that? Currently showing 60 days and 22 hours. Midnight on New Years eve I guess (without really working out the maths).

Ha fair point

It's going to be a lot less popular with Hancock in it

Sure

Exactly. His politics don't even come into it if you can't get beyond wanting him to STFU.

Thats a Russian copy of a British maxim gun from 1884. 138 years and counting!

Ah okay. I'm going to latch on to SOG then. He seems to know where the happy dust is stored.

Can I be your friend?

Black sea is pretty complicated though. There is an international agreement that only military ships from a country with a Black Sea coast can be based there

Its bizarre to our ears but a lot of people do seem to lap it up - particularly domestically in Russia but also in Africa and Middle East.

Im conflicted on the single market. I do think reliance on importing both skilled and unskilled labour has solved short term problems at the expense of creating and perpetuating long term ones. I'd love to see a proper rigorous analysis of costs and benefits of restricting both skilled and unskilled immigration. Does it create a labour shortage which will drive up average wages, force Britian to train more of its own population rather than importing skills (eg increasing number of doctor and nurse training places) and create a higher wage economy? Or does drive up the cost of providing public services which in turn means higher taxes and all the wealth leaves the country?

Its definitely really popular in London, ideal for train journeys home. Dont know why it hasnt spread out more, maybe covid.

Im seriously thinking about Ukraine. Kyiv and Lviv are genuinely nice cities with all mod cons and dirt cheap.
