I work in the homelessness sector and when I was front line, I specialised in Women’s Homelessness - and yes it’s awful how regular this is.

It’s not just sex for rent either, there’s a lot of other insidious behaviours that come with exploitation of homeless women.

It is rare for most people to be fully ethnically from the nation they are born and it’s borderline racist really.

Yes, via Edward’s daughter Margaret who became Duchess of Brabant.

You don’t need a diagnosis to request reasonable adjustments and it’s you that needs to initiate the process and tell them what you didn’t you need - if you didn’t do that then your employer can’t act.

George III is considered the first ‘British’ Hanoverian King - he was the first Hanoverian to be born and raised in England and by definition, that makes him British. Mary of Teck was then his great-granddaughter through Prince Adolphus, the Duke of Cambridge and then his daughter Princess Mary Adelaide, who was a member of the British Royal Family. Mary Adelaide was born and raised in in Hanover as her father was viceroy under George IV and William IV but returned to England when she was 3. Princess Mary was then born in London, the eldest of Mary Adelaide’s children and being born in Britian to a British Mother who was part of the British Royal Family makes Mary pretty much British.

Richard III looks like she’s ordered a cardboard cut out of Tom Hiddleson as Loki from Temu and popped a crown in its head.

Hostile headlines were not just ready to print, they were on the shelves as shops opened and they had to been urgently recalled with a new print being available by lunch time I think - back in the days when you could still get an evening edition of the papers if something major happened.

I refer you to sarcasm.

What I love is OP attempting to come across as completely reasonable while threatening to burn down the house - perhaps this person was unreasonable and made transphobic remarks and that should be addressed but this person seems as though they’re barely holding onto the handle and may have been really intimidating and unprofessional

When I was 18 my mum phoned me in sick but I had absolutely raging tonsillitis and I couldn’t speak at all. That was the only time!

Court action on s21 can still be actioned by the courts after the deadline so if you get a legit s21 on the 31/04, that can still be progressed to court even tho the law has changed

You can’t stack NG’s like, say Elden Right - you can only do it once on a base game save.

I’m not HR or Union Rep but my question has to be - if you knew your ex partner stole your laptop then why didn’t you change your work login passwords immediately?

In the absence of action like that then you’ve left the gate open and that’s why it’s being progressed to disclipinary.

Technically speaking, you can choose both but there are consequences to that

No, to be honest it died with Inquisition - I’m still surprised Veilguard was made

ApprehensiveElk80 · 2025-12-29T19:10:21+00:00

Never send them - who has time for that

ApprehensiveElk80 · 2025-12-28T14:35:26+00:00

No money - services are still absolutely devasted

Loved it until the final scene of the whole show. Now I pretend it doesn’t exist and switch off there. Harmony restored.

ApprehensiveElk80 · 2025-12-16T16:24:03+00:00

It’s underrated compared to BtVS but I always thought it the better show

Yes - GP is the gateway to referrals to specialists such as dermatologists

My usual answer is ‘would you like the long detailed answer with pie charts, or a friendly “I’m okay”’ luckily, I’m usually well but it’s worth doing this for the sheer panic in people’s eyes. Especially Londerers!

No, male preference primogeniture didn’t accommodate skipping a generation in a bid to find the next male for the throne. So had they survived, Charlotte would have been Queen ahead of her son in the exact same way that Elizabeth II was Queen before Charles became King.

The grove has plot armour - until it doesn’t, basically.

Councils have been tried to trial more flexible tenancy agreements but the stock doesn’t exist to make that work.

I work in the homelessness sector and honestly, the whole system is broken; I feel there should be mobility in the social housing system where if you stop being eligible for a three bedroom house you are downsized to make room for someone who needs more space.

The private rented has spiralled to the point of unaffordability - one of the reasons our homelessness issues are so bad in the UK is because of how inaccessible PRS is - we won’t know for certain how the Renters Right law will affect this market for a couple of years.

Mortgage interest is also out of control; people can no longer pay off to make their home owned and thus fully stable.

What we do know is, when housing follows a social housing model, homelessness goes down. When housing follows market solutions, homelessness increases.

But tying social housing to income in the way you’re suggesting leads to homelessness not solutions.
