  1. Reminds of me of the time I jumped from a wall and broke both ankles but instead of going to the hospital, I used my nous and just crawled along the ground for a few months.

  4. Decided to offer my services to Everton, with 30 years building experience and an O Level in Technical Drawing. Should cost them around 800m. Should I forward my drawing to Mr Moshiri?

  5. That list is exclusively signed by Hindu organisations, those that are benefiting from the neo-nationalist agenda of Modi's government. It doesn't represent my community and it doesn't represent Muslims of Indian origin either. It's not really that diverse.

  6. The important detail on that poll is that 71% of respondents say that beans are a vital ingredient of a full English breakfast, just like over 67% of TLW on this very thread's very own poll say the same. The anti-bean Gestapo are like climate change deniers.

  13. The CBI figures shouldn't be taken as the absolute truth (and they should certainly not be taken as impartial). https://weownit.org.uk/blog/here’s-why-cbi-wrong-about-labour’s-nationalisation-plans "Public ownership is an investment, not a cost As John McDonnell keeps pointing out, when it comes to water, energy and the Royal Mail, we’d be acquiring profitable assets which would return billions to the public purse every year.... But what about the upfront cost of buying back the companies involved? Well, it’s not up to the CBI. Parliament will decide on compensation levels for buying back our services, based on the public interest. UK and European courts have repeatedly said that “legitimate objectives of 'public interest', such as pursued in measures of economic reform or measures designed to achieve greater social justice, may call for less than reimbursement of the full market value”... The CBI said today that renationalisation of water, energy, rail and Royal Mail would cost £196 billion. There are two problems with the way they calculated this figure. Firstly, they used the Regulatory Asset Base (RAB)/Regulatory Capital Value (RCV) of the companies involved. But this isn’t the real market value, it’s just a notional figure used by the regulators. Secondly, the 30% markup is based on traditional takeover practice. But bringing assets into public ownership isn’t a takeover. It’s hard to imagine that parliament would justify giving shareholders 30% extra on top of RAB/RCV. Why would this huge handout to investors be in the public interest?.. Public ownership pays for itself Buying back the water companies in England would pay for itself in 8 years. It would cost £15 billion (the actual book value of shareholders’ investments) and we’d save £2.3 billion a year. Buying back our energy networks would pay for itself in 7 years. It would cost £22 billion (the actual book value of shareholders’ investments) to buy back the National Grid and the regional distribution companies and we’d save £3.2 billion a year. Buying back our Royal Mail would pay for itself in 7 years. It would be even simpler - the private owners have managed it so badly that the market value today is only £2.2 billion, less than half of even the book value of the company - and we would save over £300 million a year. When it comes to rail, we can take franchises in house one at a time as they come up for renewal without paying a penny in compensation. We already own the infrastructure through Network Rail. When new trains are needed, we can buy them directly on behalf of the public, and save ourselves the £200 million a year currently going to rolling stock shareholders. We would then collectively own, control and benefit from all the assets of our public water, energy, post and rail systems... Bringing these assets into public ownership would not only pay for itself, it would have huge benefits for the environment, society and economy. Benefits like transparency, democratic accountability, lower bills and fares, more investment, more care and better services. Instead of insisting private companies have to do everything, we can embrace a mixed economy and 21st century public ownership. Public services should work for all of us, not just for shareholders. The sooner we make it happen, the better."

  15. If he was genuinely out cold, then all the attention should be on Giggs for trivialising it in such a way using such language. If a player is knocked out, they're not using their head, their nous or anything else if they're unconscious. All the more reason to get them off for their own protection. Counting a few fucking fingers, or whatever it is they do, at half time, does not constitute an adequate assessment of a player's cognitive abilities after a knockout has rendered them unconscious. Why are such liberties taken when there's a head injury? If a player suspects they may have a bodily injury, even if it only turns out to be a dead leg, or bruise they'll go off, as a precaution. They'll usually go for scans, even if to only confirm the suspicion that it's not as bad as feared. How then, can a head injury which causes actual unconsciousness be blithely dismissed, as a cursory half time check in a dressing room, and allow the player continue playing? It's insane!

  21. Nothing controversial about it. Beans are one of the basic ingredients of the full breakfast. So basic that if your one of these fucking weirdos who don't like beans on the plate, you have to specifically ask for them not to be included. Otherwise the person serving you will just assume your quite normal and include beans given that they're part of a full breakfast.

  23. This stadium is a real 80s Eastern European throwback. Uninviting and uncovered concrete bowl with a running track. Boggy pitch. An atmosphere that alternates between whistling, jeering and blowing horns. A police van and an ambulance not far from pitchside. A whole platoon of riot police in one corner. Police dogs on leashes going apeshit at the (sparse) crowds because they've probably not been fed for days. Small boys. Jumpers for goalposts. Marvellous.

  25. Could make for an interesting movie trailer that. "He was on the run from the cops. He told them no-one would ever find him. Texas is a big place after all. Can he stay one step ahead or will they find him? Prime Time Emmy award nominee Simon Maroulis stars in the gripping police drama Crouching Cowboy Hidden Squeasant. In cinemas nationwide."

  28. Feigning injury has become part of the game, although it's usually reserved for the holding of a leg while rolling around, with immediate recovery once a card is issued. It's a slippery slope when players think that feigning a head injury can be used as a tactic for the team having a breather, and to be praised as 'using their nous' by a manager. All players of any sport who've legitimately suffered concussion or any head injury, and all sports physicians and neurologists should be crying blue murder at this. It's not an in play tactic. It's not something to be crying wolf about. Anybody who takes a blow to the head and needs to be treated for that long on the pitch should be taken off immediately without question as a law of the game. It's not their call to say they're alright or not. To be tempting fate in this way is bad Karma that's going to come back and bite them on the arse at some point, sooner or later.

  30. Bit misleading that excerpt. Yes he was always one of the dimmest bulbs in the box, but his point isn't that there are no parks in Liverpool. It's that when you struggle with the language and the different lifestyle, it affects your daily life because you can't do all the things you might be able to enjoy back home. It's common among foreign-born communities in the UK where being slow/unable to adapt to a different language or lifestyle can see people or communities close themselves off to much of what passes for the norm.

  33. Yep, this. Can't help but feel it's all set up to conclude Saul this year and then bring Jesse his show next year. I don't think the character needed closure or any more closure. For me BB finished with him escaping. I'm not sure I get any more closure knowing he got to Alaska than I would with him working in McDonald's on Mexico city or just knowing he got away as we did from BB. I enjoyed the movie, but it hasn't changed anything for me. It just opens the door for a new chapter (especially after him talking the other day about being type cast and moving back to TV from movies)

  41. Been called allkinds today as I took the kids out swimming and they put their feet all over two plastic bags in the car. Turns out that there are banners in these bags for her Mums birthday next week. They have apparently been on the floor in the back of the car for 3 days. However, I was supposed to be a mind reader and know this even though she has never mentioned it before and I was a lazy cunt for not moving them or bringing them into the house to keep safe.

  42. Dougie knows Standard ingredients made it easier to prepare and so the 'common' English breakfast rapidly spread nationally, its standard ingredients of bacon, eggs, sausage, black pudding, baked beans, grilled tomato, fried bread and toast, served with a jams, marmalades, tea/coffee and orange juice. https://www.englishbreakfastsociety.com/full-english-breakfast.html
