The clear disparity between pub and supermarket prices matters. Who says people are drinking alone (any more than historical norms)?

I think a lot of the decline of pubs is down to tax and pub vs shop prices. In 1975 a pint of bitter in the Midlands cost ~20p, inflation since then is x9.5, so if the relative price was the same now a pint would cost a shade under £2, but it costs £3 or more. However you can buy a bottle of...

No one will commit till end of season.. I'm expecting ground rent negotiations with Wasps to go on through the Summer.

Not so sure, I thought some people on here know who it is, some old guy.

First 3 episodes on iplayer for a few weeks, 18 days left for episode 1 of the 3.

About time.

I think you are incorrect, RFC loves them to bits.

So how do you think this will pan out?

When the announcers name flashed up, thought he was called shithole!

Who?

I've noticed that more & more stories feature stuff in East Birmingham/Solihull.

Maybe that is a partial solution now. Previously I could not see it, but since SISU have trimmed the finances to the bone and made the club profitable it is now an option, unfortunately if the club runs on no investment it will not compete well in the leagues so I still think there needs to be...

There was an old news story about that (I missed on holiday). Nothing about these squadies, still not disclosed what they wanted to do, if anything. In fact it is possible for the police to arrest someone just for joining a prohibited group.

It isn't a law, its a declaration which I for one cannot accept.

Which one?

Actually Saudi only stopped slavery in the 1960's because of the universal declaration of human rights, but there is a righly critisised Islamic version of this Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam - Wikipedia which is aimed more at preventing criticism of the religion rather than...

Don't think so. Maybe Abrahamic religions do, does Buddhism, Sikhism, Bahá'íism, Zoroastrianism or Confucianism do so?

It was a hugely regressive step to make it a 'hate crime' to criticise religions, particularly a religion which actually advocates killing others for not believing.

Note the word 'potential' not 'actual'. In my view actual terrorists who have committed atrocities are worse. These guys may be Neanderthal extremists but did they actually hoard armaments or attack anything like Salman Abedi, Khuram Shazad Butt, Rachid Redouane, or Youssef Zaghba actually did?
