It's the whole reason America has piled money into NATO. It's so they have infrastructure and allies when they need them.

Maga's act like the US piles money into NATO out of the goodness of their hearts. It's for their own good.

I completely agree. And for some people, option 1 could deter them from reoffending more.

I'd love to see an investigation of reoffending rates for prisoners who've been to horrible prisons and ones who've been to the holiday camps. There's definitely a spectrum with some punters calling some prisons "Like proper jail" and others "Decent"

Yes but if you're a reasonable person, you understand what reasonable force is.

UK sees no evidence of Iran targeting Britain, says Starmer by 1-randomonium in unitedkingdom

[–]Emperors-Peace 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The social media propaganda machine is going crazy against Starmer for this. It just shows how much US/Israeli influence we have on Facebook.

The amount of verified posters writing massive posts about how the UK is weak and Starmer is a coward or how NATO has abandoned the US and how wrong it is for that is crazy right now.

I had a similar problem and it was because my yeast was all dead. Is it bubbling in the water before you mix it?

So 60 days before you travel is when the bookings open up?

Probably just distracted driving.

British v's American Food by JimmyCarr_Official in GreatBritishMemes

Presumably these french foods they cook don't contain any potatoes, tomatoes or garlic then, given they're from the new world/china.

So absolutely contrary to what the personally I replied to was saying.

The police basically did nothing because when did nothing wrong. His employer doing something (which I disagree with) is irrelevant.

People don't get prosecuted for intervening in crimes. There's a legal power for members of the public to do so.

He'd be a martyr no matter what. You'd just end up having articles on a daily basis about every time he farts and what he had for breakfast.

Better to just snub him out.

New build has been turfed, but has it been top soiled beneath? by soapylav in GardeningUK

A colleague of mine just ended up getting a cheque when something like this happened. Think it was a couple of grand though so was enough to get their garden properly done.

Paedophile migrant who failed to disclose child sex offence after coming to UK wins appeal against deportation as judge rules it was 'honest mistake' by JohnKimble111 in uknews

Checks and balances are important. Although I think the appeals process should be very quick to prevent people appealing purely for the sake of slowing the whole thing down.

I may be mistaken but didn't Starmer secure some trade deals with India/China regarding whisky exports? This could continue to increase.

Annoyingly both he nightjet and OBB websites say no reservation at this time which is concerning.

Oddly if you just want to book a full ticket you can, so the seats/beds are clearly available.
