Just saw this, basically you graph players by fee paid and minutes on the pitch, the idea is if you sign players cheaply who go into the side and stay there that’s a good signing. Anyone either fancy doing this for CCFC managers or know the best place to get the data from for fees and minutes...

This isn’t how stats work but fag packet maths so bare with me. Last I saw roughly 1 in 1700 have the virus, so you’d need a gathering of more than 1700 to be likely to get infected. I doubt there were that many at most parties/protests. At the beach maybe but people tend to be static and...

Nope agree with you. But realistically speaking we can’t do anything out of power and it won’t help us get into power so it’s only got downsides to get involved in now. Once we’re in then let’s go full bore towards a peace process. But until then we’re just going to have to focus on the U.K. IMO.

It’s a balance isn’t it. I’d like to look at various social attitudes and it’s need some very clever messaging Blair style so both sides take away what they want from it. Im sure there are some at the extremes that would quit the party if we ever did anything patriotic or tough on crime or for...

Age is a proxy for education as well. There’s a lot of non uni educated people with a chip on their shoulder and Labour has done very little to help or try and understand their issues instead choosing to wang on about tuition fees again. Also as you age you move more into the asset owning...

Really good thread. I think I still come down on the “oh come on that’s a stretch” side, but I get when Jewish people are twitchy about this stuff especially when as she says Labour have spent four years looking at AS in detail and what is and isn’t acceptable. Like I say the smart move is to...

@Nick I think you’re missing the “why mention the Jews at all” angle. Like the people who pop into the George Floyd thread to drop statistics about black on black crime. It’s factually correct but the timing and placement of such facts makes you wonder about their agenda.

I think you’re in the weeds of detail too much. Majority of swing voters go with the mood of the country rather than a detailed policy analysis and stuff like devolution means nothing outside of the politically engaged who have made their mind up already. There’s two routes to power in the...

Nah it’s a 4x4 so you can just nip under it. Police said they’ll ask Aldi for CCTV but when everyone’s wearing masks I doubt it’ll be much help.

Ask the insurance company. They think it’s a writeoff.

See above they’re still thinking. Going to chase today as it’s been a week since I last talked to them. Was hoping to bone up on my rights in case they stuck with what they said last time. It’s an 07 Lexus RX400h, apparently hybrid cats are worth good money (£500 on eBay), police say there’s...

Yeah I was surprised. I’m guessing that one isn’t made because I can’t find it on euro car parts. Maybe they’re quoting for a whole exhaust? No idea. They haven’t confirmed it’s a writeoff yet, just said they think it will be.

Thanks. The job is entirely remote. I do a few nights a year on my laptop and that’s it. Even when there was in person training a few years ago I travelled by train paid for by them. Looking on eBay a new cat is around £500, can’t find it firsthand though, my excess is £750 (god knows why)...

Absolute scam artists. Discuss. Had the cat stolen from my car a couple of weeks back, insurance company took the car saying they thought it was a writeoff two weeks ago. Called to see what’s taking so long and they said they’re considering if my insurance is void because I didn’t declare a...

I don’t think she comes with the car. I’m after a new one after some c**t sole my catalytic converter in Aldi car park, not really my style though :D

I’m massively out of touch with the Prem, who’s worth signing from that lot?

How many people sacked because of media storms get a pay off? You reckon the White Lives Matter guy will?

And there’s a correlation between pro Israel and islamophobia. It’s a shitty battle all round and frankly if I were a U.K. politician I’d stay well out of it outside any official peace process.

Point is you wouldn’t be sacked for racism you’d be sacked for gross misconduct or bringing the company into disrepute or whatever. The Equality Act and hate speech laws set a certain bar but real life’s bar is far lower. And far harder to discern where the line is. It’s basically “are enough...

But you say something isn’t racist, who are you to make that judgement? Who is anyone? Do we just go with the representatives of each group? What stops those positions being captures by a fringe ideology? Do we go with the overall majority? But what about minority groups being abused by the...
