This caught my eye so had a look at the report on full fact. For any parents out there that may have this decision to make probably worth highlighting some other parts of the piece. The figures have been extrapolated from self reported conditions on VAERS, the US equivalent of our yellow card...

When's the next phone in on CWR? Someone is bound to call up and demand Robins gives him a contract.

Welcome to old age.

I haven't watched Casualty in years but I don't remember it being particularly woke.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m000q5hp/storyville-red-penguins-murder-money-and-ice-hockey If you look at Storyville on iplayer there's a few in there that might be worth a watch.

I signed on for a short time when I was made redundant many years ago. Even the most motivated person would lose the will to live after a visit to the dole office. I've got a degree and they made me do a test to see if I could read and write and then a day of how to write a CV, followed by a...

I'm not sure being on any benefits, disability or otherwise, is an easy wheeze. When I thought my job was in danger at the start of covid I had a look at what I'd be entitled to and it didn't even begin to cover my bills and housing costs. I could have probably lasted a month or two until I'd...

The thing is you can't ignore his background. We all know what he was like the first time he was here as players who were in the squad with him have openly talked about it. Since then he appears to have pretty swiftly been dumped by every club that's given him a chance so its not surprising that...

Hope it was beer

What are the stats for free kicks scored by shooting under the wall? Seems a waste of a player to have someone lying down to prevent something I can't really remember ever seeing happen.

Well its a small sample size as I'm just going off people I went to school with so it may not scale but I think the idea that if you left school and took up a trade you'd spend the rest of your life sturggling doesn't really hold true and that's certainly how it was presented at my school. Also...

No idea if this was just my school having lousy careers advise or was the norm but if you left at 16 with little in the way of qualifications to go and learn a trade you were defiantly given the impression that you'd failed and life was going to be pretty shitty. Similarly if you got a degree...

You'd hope that the contact was stacked in our favour and appearance based so if he decides to not turn up or not put in the effort we aren't paying him much and can easily get rid. Obviously we don't know what is going on behind the scenes but it seems he missed a pre-season game as he turned...

Odds on him being rested for the next test?

I can understand that there's lead times and they aren't going to order loads of stock and risk being stuck with it but surely if something proves popular and sells out straight away you re-order? Even if they said orders now won't ship until next year at least let people spend money.

Are they made of glass? There was an issue with vaccine vials as we'd closed the UK based factory that manufactured the glass and therefore had to import which meant being in competition with other countries. Could be something similar.

Obviously short term there's issues, and annoyingly they were issues that were warned of and those warnings ignored, but hopefully in the long term it will lead to better pay and conditions. Not holding my breath though. In my industry for years there's been skills shortages and every company...

Watching the news this morning see we've reverted back to claiming infection doesn't occur in schools. Must be a coincidence that every time schools or universities go back there's a big surge in cases. Also being reported that Scotland are looking at bringing in vaccine passports. Not entirely...

Doesn't that date back to the Burnley chairman in the 60s thinking that if a game was on TV nobody would show up to watch Burnley? These things can be changed if there's the will, an exemption was made last season so it clearly can be done. Just seems to be turning down revenue from people who...

This was a few years ago, think Wembley use Parallel Ads now to change the pitch side advertising depending on where they're sending the feed to. Edit: looked it up to check I wasn't going mad! Put it in a quote to stop it taking up the entire page.
