    I'd go further, any dog owner who keeps their dog off the lead. So many times I drive down a road like the a45 and there's people walking their dogs off lead on the pavement. Don't care how well behaved they are, only needs to be spooked once and you've got a big problem.

    They've suffered enough surely. Nobody deserves this.

    Think Reform, where I presume Jenrick is about to defect to, need to be a bit careful with taking on failed Conservative politicians. Pretty hard to present yourself as the alternative to the establishment when an ever increasing number in your party are from the government recently voted out.

    And Manchester Original become Manchester Super Giants. The logo is orange. Surely you can't have 3 teams playing in orange in an 8 team league

    Things that annoy you

    Parking fines are still the wild west despite repeated promises from those in power that there will be reform. I got one for pulling into a free car park for 14 minutes at 10:30am because 'overnight parking is not allowed', despite there being no mention of any times the car park was closed...

    This is actually quite a good example of how the story we are presented with doesn't really match the reality. We've seen many claims in the media that striking rail workers are striking against 'modernisation'. Except modernisation has been accepted by unions, what hasn't been accepted is the...

    There's not a single bit that isn't true in that. Mate of mine Mrs is a GP, they moved to Sweden a couple of years back as she was offered far better pay and conditions to work there. Said the difference is stark. She's encouraged to get to know her patients and for each appointment to take as...

    There's no problem there but that's not going to do anything to help the issues I mentioned or the article references. The system grinds to a halt when care is needed over and above what can be provided at home by the family. Whether its at the lower end, with occasion visits by carers to the...

    Not sure making all offspring fully medically trained is going to work tbh. Not sure where I'd put the MRI scanner or x-ray machines either.
