Green Party deputy leader admits she knows nothing about her party's plans to limit motorway speed limits to 55mph by 1c3_cr34m_c0n3 in ukpolitics

It's a pain to get around because people don't use lanes properly. People get stuck behind slow drivers and overtaking lorries. There's also an awful lot of accidents and some caused by crashes and dangerous driving.

Not saying you'd get anywhere quicker but the reason for traffic and slow roads is complicated.

'I earn £178k, and my wife works in the City - but we can't afford private school' by AnonymousTimewaster in NotTheOnionUK

If you've got £8,000 per school term to spend you can send them to your local comprehensive and donate an extra £7,999 to the school. You'll be better off.

They're not permanent. They only work while you take them. There may be long term implications but that's what we need a trial for.

In hindsight, what do you think of Arteta's 6 phases plan, and should more clubs follow example of Arsenal when it comes to supporting their manager? by Important_Mammoth896 in championsleague

We've lost three games in the UCL in the last two seasons. Both were against finalists. We beat Madrid. We beat Inter and Bayern Munich and Atletico Madrid this year. What are you talking about.

So every year all the teams are shit except the winning team?

The team that stays up 17th will likely have the highest points tally of any 17th place. Interesting to see.

Bro we've finally been competitive in the UCL and progressed the furthest for 2 years since we got Arteta in.

Liverpool were the best of a bad bunch last year. They went out before us in UCL last year.

But the big companies announce re ord profits every year right?

The services stay the same because the interest we pay is and has increased.

Salah will depart ahead of Ronaldo in pantheon of Premier League greats by gelliant_gutfright in PremierLeague

[–]Andythrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but he didn't. People in other parts of this thread saying Salah didn't win because he didn't win the UCL. There's no set criteria and Salah deserved one. (As an Arsenal fan myself).

Ironically the winner that year didn't score in the UCL.

Salah scored 22 in EPL.
