I love a good quiche so count me in on all this coronation bollocks

However the Refugee Convention disagrees. For the above to happen, the U.K. either has to break international law or get it changed, or ironically rejoin the EU who appear to be operating a scheme right on the fringes of legality https://freemovement.org.uk/how-does-the-illegal-migration-bill-breach-the-refugee-convention/

I find them similar to use as a French Press. Put your coffee in, add water, leave for about a minute and then press the plunger. Advantages are that it’s slightly quicker, coffee feels cleaner as it goes through a paper filter and a bit easier to clean afterwards. Drawback is that you can only make one coffee at a time. Definitely easier than a moka pot and more consistent for me

Did vegan January last year and rapidly came to the conclusion that the substitutes for meat and cheese were either disgusting or full of more chemical shit than a British river. Doesn’t seem necessary given that you can make great vegan food without resorting to that

I need to use “two-bob cunt” more in my daily interactions

Only use them when my daughter needs the loo because no girl should be subjected to the horror of the men’s toilets and obviously I can’t take her into the Ladies

Michael Heseltine was interviewed on that podcast by Campbell and Rory Stewart a few weeks ago. He boasted that he was the minister in Thatcher’s government that had achieved more privatisation than anyone else.

He fired a weapon designed to have a spread into a crowd. Planning for consequences is clearly not a strength of his. As Rico said, don’t under-estimate quite how fucking stupid some of these people are

There should be some constitutional requirement that before any government can ‘tackle’ any type of culture war bullshit they have to get the basics in place. You can’t tank the economy, leave people choosing between heat& food, destroy the healthcare system and then start blabbering about how your priority is men who like to wear a dress

no but now I have a new fear in video meetings, thanks

Nasal hair, especially if it’s just one long one sticking out which is more upsetting than an entire tuft

It’s almost like they don’t regard their work life as their primary identity and their colleagues as their main social outlets. I’m starting to suspect that some of them have proper lives in which their jobs are just something they do for only 40 hours a week and I’m jealous as fuck

To give a fuller picture, you could have mentioned that poverty and obesity are often linked https://www.theguardian.com/business/2020/aug/09/poverty-causes-obesity-low-income-families-need-to-be-better-off-to-eat-well

How did this topic get a tag? Are they back and how do we do them?

SilverLining obviously. Then it tends to be pairings rather than individuals. The ones that chase each other across every thread on the forum, bickering like kids and leaving pages of unreadable shite in the middle of decent topics.

Not trusting Champ is a red line for me

Nurses and Care Home workers put their lives on the line every day during Covid, arguably at greater risk than many of the armed forces.

Looking forward to Charles riding through the streets in a gold carriage after one of the toughest financial winters for ordinary people. Should go down a storm

“obeying my wish” is an interesting phrase to use. I suspect Matt thinks that people like Rishi should always obey his wishes edit: ah bollocks, just seen that it’s a parody account

Interesting watch

Theoretically it kills demand as more people either can’t afford to borrow or choose to save. As demand drops then so do prices Problem is that the Bank of England is pursuing this policy whilst at the same time the government’s idea is cutting taxes to put more money in people’s pockets and therefore stimulate growth through more spending. Essentially you’ve got the Bank and the government using opposing strategies to fix the economy

Where’s the sour cream and dill?

Brazil is going to be a shitshow for the next 4 weeks. Hopefully not a violent one

I don’t think U.K. printers can afford the ink needed anymore
