I'm not really against a quick video or two of the band you're seeing. But the people who film the entire gig, or even worse, are just filming themselves. What's the point? The gig last night had a real vibe of people being there because it's become a thing in Cov rather than actually wanting...

There were several players this summer who got the 'I'll drive him there myself' treatment who have been regulars in the match day squad, if not starting XI, this season

Seems to be one of the requirements for being made president there or prime minister here

Ridiculous isn't it. Was the same with the hotels. Months of 'why don't they use army barracks', now they're doing that its 'why are they using army barracks'. Same with this, exactly what people have been asking for but because it's being done those same people now aren't happy with it.

The Enemy were great at the Empire last night. The crowd however was fucking awful. People were absolutely paralytic and seemed to be treating it as a who can drink the most competition. More concerned with getting selfies of themselves than watching the band. And worst of all beer being...

Of course with the system as it currently is if I was to do that I could end up fucked. If and when my mum needs to go into care the house will be used to pay for it. There is nothing that takes in to account anyone other than a partner remaining in the house. Its a similar situation when one...

Wasn't commenting from an affordability point of view, more from the fact there's 2 potential family homes tied up because there's a lack of alternative types of accommodation. As a country we have more and more people living alone but unless you want a luxury apartment the only other new...

I live alone but have a 2 bed terrace. The one and only reason for that is there's no other options in the area I wanted to live as I needed to be close to my aging parents. My Mum lives alone in a 3 bed place since my Dad moved in to the care home. Absolutely no reason for her to, and its...

would it not just be on the corrections and clarification?

The weekend of the reform conference was the first time I've seen Farage on his regular TV rounds actually being challenged on policy. It was an absolute car crash. He had no answers to anything. The issue of course is both if that sort of questioning will continue and if it even cuts through to...

What worries me is there is so much focus on asylum seekers arriving by boat or those awaiting processing who have been placed in hotels that we are taking our focus off by far the largest group of offenders. I completely understand the idea of certain groups being over-represented in stats...

I don't know what sickens me more. The way people will make attempts like this to defend the indefensible or the fact that there are Trump supporters who will happily nod along in agreement. Some pretty horrific details about Gaetz were released in court yesterday as well. Paying and supplying...

A lot of people seem far too confident about this series, I'm not seeing it. The Aussies certainly aren't unbeatable but that's a very different thing to going in expect to win the Ashes. Still at least we forced Jimmy out the team as he wouldn't still be playing by the time it got to the Ashes.

this is quite an interesting read https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/nov/13/who-votes-for-reform-and-why-charts-that-show-who-supports-farage-party

The difference in approach is noticeable. We were fucking around in New Zealand playing (losing) white ball games. The Aussies have pretty much all their expected test squad playing domestic red ball games.

Friend of mine, from a non-European country, works in the fiance sector in the city. Has worked here for several years, her husband is not allowed to join her here. He has a degree, would be working and contributing to society but doesn't meet the threshold. Makes me sceptical when I see...

They're planning new homes near me (well its been going on for years and there's no sign of breaking ground anytime soon) and all I hear is about the impact on the traffic. People who live in what were 2 bed terraces that have been massively extended to 3, 4 or even 5 bedrooms to facilitate...

Is that the letter to BBC that was sent to the wrong address, with the wrong legal wording after the date for action had passed?
