All sales taxes are regressive IMO. Also I don’t fetishise high streets but instead fetishise technological progress and efficient resource usage. So I’m all for online shops destroying bricks and mortar if that’s what the market wants. Better to tax warehousing and distribution better IMO. But...

But the responses you’ve posted are inaccurate. I understand what he’s saying, and it’s consistent with the info we have from all parties. The bloke isn’t a lawyer so wouldn’t expect him to get the exact terms right but the general thrust of his argument is correct and people like Knowl are the...

Going to be honest here at the risk of triggering Nick

Yeah I’m just a dude with Google, but my reading is that there’s circumstances where you can break an NDA, specifically when going to the press about public interest (which you’d assume this is). Also that ramifications are damages related and IMO (and obviously IANAL) I cant see what serious...

Sorry. Don’t get this. People seem to have got the wrong end of the stick IMO. He’s saying what Wasps have been saying which is any attempts to reverse the Ricoh sale (not just the state aid, they specifically say they’ll put the state aid complaint aside) are the issue. Knowl going on about...

People are too worried about saying things now. Oh for the Early GMK days of no worries about legal ramifications of forum posts.

It’s owned by the council. It’s scrub land but it looks like concrete bases for garages are there. There’s no right of way but there is access. They could possibly build on it, but me and my neighbour would complain if they put a block of flats at the bottom of the garden. I just want the corner...

But if bias there I think. Baka is definitely one of our quickest forwards.

Was it ever an option? I got the impression Sisu asked knowing the answer would be a no and it was. There’s been plans for that site for a while IIRC.

I find 1000 a day deficit doable, I know some don’t, I can’t go to 1500 without seriously feeling it (I tried). I guess people have their own limits.

Oh definitely. I comfort eat for sure. Like smoking weed, I’m sure if I was mentally healthy I wouldn’t need it. But that’s a big ask on its own. Overall do agree of fat positivity though. People need to know it’s unhealthy and mentally you’re treated so differently whenyou’re fat that it’s...

Random question: anyone know how hard it is to buy land off the council (Nuneaton & Bedworth before they jokes start)? There’s some scrub land behind the house that looks like it used to have garages on it, I’d love to buy a chunk of it and extend the garden.

Had an offer accepted on the other house. Went back yesterday and fell in love again. Absolute no brainier. Fair play to the seller as well WhatsApped me a message screenshot showing he’s turned down a higher offer after he’s accepted mine. Said he considered the house mine and to enjoy it...

We’re looking at longitudinal studies. One I saw had something like a 90% recidivism rate. Can’t find it but this states rare to keep it off for more than a year:Relapse in obesity treatment: biology or behavior? Bit old now though. I mean you’re probably right that “given a decent dose of...

If you want to go for it, you’ll still have to muster support. Might be best to choose one symbolic seat (Duggins?) and target that. I don’t know the situation with Charlton but the idea of people finding CCFC less political isafair one.

You’re a man of the world G. What happens if Wasps go bust? Is there an admin process like in football where someone can pick them up debt free but with the “golden share” and any assets they negotiate? Or are they just wiped from the league and someone else comes up to replace them like Bury?

Funny one isn’t it? There’s a whole load of grey between fat acceptance and fat shaming, and stats show that diets and other weight loss techniques have very little long term impact. Then you’ve got a clear problem with increased food availability and cost to the NHS that makes it a government...

You think that’ll happen any time soon? Or that it’s the last avenue that could be pursued? With appeals you could be talking longer than the five years for a new ground anyway.

Has anyone got a lot of hay bales? ;)

No. I’m not making any judgement on the comparative levels of vagueness. I’m kinda done giving out free reading comprehension lessons on here TBH. Book an adult learning course. I’ve literally posted “I agree with this statement, because I too am sick of not knowing anything” and been attacked...
