    Cricket 2024

    This is a huge part of the problem. There's not many options coming through and the ones that are they seem to coach any raw talent out of them. Look at Izzy Wong, in the England team, picked in the IPL etc then it was decided her action needed 'improving' and she can barely hit the strip to...

    Cov city centre

    HS2 on the route I go. They've currently got the road I take closed for a month to join the existing road to a new road. Closed for a month for less than a metre of tarmac! Added bonus the 3 shortest / quickest alternative routes have all been closed at the same time. My best option now is down...

    Don't worry, we're building a light rail from the train station to the Skydome so that will solve all the problems

    Cov city centre

    I live south cov and drive away from the city centre so I'm OK but if I have to go towards town it can easily take 15 minutes just to get out of my road. There seems to be no flow to anything, pardon the pun. The lights will go green at the bottom of my road but they are never in phase with the...

    Cricket 2024

    Tour has been an absolute fucking shambles. Not saying its easy to beat the Aussies, especially over there, but this has just been a disaster. Not even close to making a mark. Maybe this will give things a much needed shake up as this has been a long time coming. Ever since the Commonwealth...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    mates mom also worried about losing her job at the moment. lives in a small town where there's not much work besides government jobs so obviously worried that if it happens with so many people being laid off will they all be able to find work before the 8 months pay period is over. there seems...

    Things that annoy you

    I did see some senior police bod saying that the supermarkets should stop complaining about the rise in shoplifting if they won't employ staff.

    Not sure telling people who have been to other countries to pipe down because their personal experience doesn't match yours is really a good way to debate.

    If losing our culture means there's not 101 posts every week on facebook about what colour bin to put out I'm all for it

    Things that annoy you

    Same at the Asda near me, now only 2 actual tills. Wouldn't be so bad but there's never any staff, or at most one person, covering the never ending errors on the self checkouts so its just a huge bottleneck of people stood there unable to do anything.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    But what you're describing there changes over time irrespective of immigration so not really sure how restricting the number of foreigners coming into the country is going to solve that. Personally that's not what I consider the culture of a country so maybe you're all arguing about something...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    😂 😂 😂 fucking hell, A+for the sweeping generalisations. Don't want to shoot them down one by one or anything remotely like that. I want an idea of what culture people are fearing is on the verge of disappearing because I'm struggling to think of a single thing I'm concerned is about to vanish...

    Lets not do what? If people are saying that British culture is being overwritten with foreign influence then we need to establish what they think is at threat and what is acceptable foreign influence and what isn't. Which of these thousands of unspoken rules and customs you refer to are on the...

    Transfer Rumour Matt Grimes

    Possibly the same reason that apparently we're the only club in the country where nobody would come in and be an assistant!

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    What is British culture though? Thanks in no small part to the empire a huge chunk of what we consider 'ours' has been imported from elsewhere. Are we just picking an arbitrary date and saying anything before that is OK but nothing new from this point forward?

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    There was a documentary about immigration recently on the BBC. Interestingly they head ex-PMs and people like Farage all quite openly admitting that they didn't find immigration an issue but an easy way to get votes. They had people saying that in public members of the government would be...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    There's something rather humorous about people complaining about there being too many foreigners in the country. A thing they have noticed when returning from living in another country 😂

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Strikes me that even if Trump whats to do nonsensical things he needs to stop shooting from the hip and blasting out executive orders for immediate action and actually go through due process and have the implications of his actions checked in advance. Read a couple of days ago that there's a...

    Cricket 2024

    Rashid is going for a MOTM performance here. Between his runs at the end of the innings and his bowling he's putting England in a very strong position to go on and win this
