    Guns in america

    They were under investigation in New York so declared bankruptcy there. This is a 'new' NRA which was incorporated in Texas where they are unlikely to face much scrutiny.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Sadly this kind of thing isn't in the slightest bit surprising anymore.

    England bowlers have lost the plot at the end here. Going to be a tough chase.

    Just watched all the goals we've conceded: who's to blame?

    Do unforced errors and / or defensive mistakes get record as a stat? Would be interesting to see how many goals we've conceded from those and how we compare to other clubs.

    24 Hours in Police Custody

    Was half expecting it to come up at the end that he'd got off again. Must be so frustrating to keep arresting someone and seeing them let out to commit increasingly more serious crimes.

    Match Thread U23s v Charlton

    Does the international break mean they could play U23s today and then be isolated from the 1st team until their next test without the level of disruption it would cause normally or is the idea that they're being kept separate not correct?

    Match Thread U23s v Charlton

    That seems a stronger team than we've put out in recent games.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Isn't the reason caution is being suggested rather than an overnight return to 'normal' because there is so little evidence either way. We are all basically part of a huge live trial. Hopefully as things are opened up we don't see an increase in hospitalisations but with so many unknowns and so...

    Bristol kill the bill protest

    No idea but again there's plenty of people saying this isn't the way to protest without suggesting any alternative.

    Bristol kill the bill protest

    Would absolutely agree that the kids smashing the police station with skateboards who look about 14 had little idea what the protest was about and just saw an excuse to cause trouble. But if that's the case you can't then place the blame for violence on those genuinely protesting can you? The...

    Bristol kill the bill protest

    This is an interesting point. We've seen protests about all sorts of things over the years, and quite a lot of larger scale ones over the last couple of years. What was the last time a peaceful protest achieved the desired result on any major issue? The last protest I recall having a significant...

    Bristol kill the bill protest

    I've seen it blamed on Antifa, BLM and Extinction Rebellion so far which is I think a full house!

    Pretty much the same for me. Listened to Lamptey pretty much since its started and its just that, a conversation between mates. Can't really get into SBE, not that its bad, just not my thing. Good to see multiple options though and that they aren't all just copies of each other.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Its not 'restrict everything', people need to move away from this all or nothing way of looking at things. Saying we may need to continue wearing facemasks on public transport or not ram as many people as possible into pubs and restaurants, to give a couple of examples, is nothing like saying we...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I had that one. Was working for a company whose client base was supposed to be entirely in Hampshire. They took on a client in London and expected me to travel there, with traffic it added 6 hours or more a day. Of course the travel time wasn't paid as "our quote wouldn't be competitive if we...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Got a couple of mates who are on 4 day weeks, one has been for over 10 years, the other more recent. Both say the same thing @Evo1883 mentioned on another thread, makes a huge difference as work no longer dominates your life. They also say their companies have seen increased productivity and...
