    Worldwide IT Outage

    Probably a bit tin foil hat territory but there’s been a lot of ‘outages’ in the last few months but it’s always a problem with an update and never hackers

    The twitter admin has posted the kick off time in various places around the world, inc Cov obviously, only to have people in the replies asking what time it is in the UK They have more patience than me

    If you check the FOI related to that the ambulance service said it was not on an emergency call and it was a non issue. That’s entirely consistent with JSOs stated policy of moving for emergency services on blue lights

    Leeds Riots

    How many times do we have to explain the same thing. Actual media outlets, as opposed to randoms on social media, don’t report things as fact if all they’ve got to go on is what someone has posted on twitter.

    That Green Party councillor that seems to be taking on the rioters on his own is a braver person than me

    Leeds Riots

    Not licensed for use in the UK, think it was last considered when May was Home Secretary and she quickly squashed it. If you recall Johnson purchased some for the met after the Tottenham riots and they had to be sold for scrap at a huge loss as they were not authorised for use in this country.

    Leeds Riots

    well yes, that's what tends to happen with riots. when do you remember a riot occurring and thousand of police were sent in within hours of it happening. even with things like Tottenham, which went on for days, by the time the army had been mobilised things had mostly run their course.

    Leeds Riots

    Leeds Riots

    Don't think anyone has suggested turning a blind eye. The police know they're under resourced and fucked in a situation like this. They will have a plan which I would imagine involves using their limited resources to try and stop trouble spreading to other parts of the city

    Surely stationary traffic is less likely to cause accidents than the quality of driving you normally see on the m25

    Leeds Riots

    Not sure about the 'if it was football fans' stuff. Football games are scheduled so that police from all around the area can be present in numbers, especially if games are classed as 'risk'. This is mainly covered by working overtime and the bill is footed by the home club. The reality is that...

    all week I've been hearing the prisons are at literal breaking point, and today its even being suggested that they're so fucked it was the reason for the election to be called unexpectedly but we've got room to put people protesting against lack of action against climate change inside for years.

    Cricket 2024

    107 - 5, going to be tough from here. Hate to say it but they've gone to shit since Ali came back, and not for the first time. Just seems to mess with the balance of the side or something. I mean it should be a no brainer that they improve when you bring a player like him in but that rarely...

    I find it weird with this sort of thing where there's a huge search operation and then weeks later its 'oh we've found the body right by where he was last known to be', where were you looking?
