The whole country is, Torch! The highway authority (generally the county council or unitary authority) apparently have a statutory duty to authorise enabling works for building developments which have been granted permission (and it usually means water, then gas, then electricity, then drainage...

Can you write to Avalon Productions to suggest this? :)

Germany's 2.Bundesliga had 8.9m total, but it's only 20 teams, so their average was 29K (so better than the Champ, which EFL don't mention). Heavily skewed by Schalke, Hamburg and Hertha Berlin, who all average over 50K (Schalke get 61K every week).

It is a very well-attended league. Compare it to the French Ligue 2, which had a total of just 3.24 million this season, albeit with 20 teams. But average gate was 8,535. Pathétique!

Steady on!!

I reckon this is very likely the case, combined with the Cup Final showing the green shoots of recovery. Mind you, Man City were frankly hopeless against a very poor Chelsea in their semi, so they are probably told that the Prem and Champions' League are everything.

Any of them worth a punt? Hennessey?

Next annoyance is the endless stream of ridiculous, pointless podcasts produced by the BBC, mainly involving football. As if listening to Ella Toone and Alessia Russo giggling over a cup of coffee wouldn't be bad enough, this morning i heard a trailer for "My mate's a footballer" with (wait for...

Weird that Wood End didn't make the list. Still a hell-hole!

Gosh - so young. I had no idea it progressed to fatality so quickly. His suffering is at an end.

It's because the metropolitan elite use Sainsbury's and they don't want people to panic-buy in there, maybe.

I think Robinshio meant the ransom!

If it is going to be that bad (and there is absolutely no suggestion as to why it might be), it's probably more worthwhile to kidnap a GP and hold them hostage in your sex dungeon. (Everyone has one of those, right? Repurposed nuclear bunker, etc :D)

A gentle reminder that they are still there???

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-69072640 If Labour don't stump up their ridiculous 35% pay demands, i hope the junior doctors give Starmer as rough a ride as they have given this past government. If they don't, it will appear to be a party-political stunt and they will lose support and respect.

Reform are of the opinion that the NHS needs the money to be spent better, not more of it. Some interesting proposals here NHS The flip-side is social care, which was taken out of central government/NHS funding streams by the Care Act 2014, and handed over to local authorities who are now...
