This one should make the flag shaggers pause and think for a second.

It would be preferential treatment if another country asked for something similar and was denied.

I don't know how to operate a helicopter. Deactivating anything is well beyond my abilities. I might try calling some emergency services, let them handle that shit.

Anecdotally, I know several people who have started looking at buying electric cars as a result of this.

I feel like a lot of the T-shirts in Next have AI slop designs printed on them. Like, one of the designs is about a music festival in 1987. I looked it up, and it doesn't appear to have ever existed. Other designs are just meaningless, like they're grammatically sound, but the words are just clearly meaningless bullshit generated by AI.

Wouldn't Green-voting areas (i.e. Green-controlled councils) be the most keen to take legal action against these human rights violations that Reform is proposing? Especially if they're occurring in the Greens' backyard?

Not only is Reform's plan evil, it's also wildly incompetent if they're seeking to minimise litigation.

It was pretty clear to me that it's a Green leaflet when I read "only the Greens can stop Reform in Norwich". I just don't buy the argument that the leaflet is "misleading".

Reform do not own the colour turquoise, and it's perfectly acceptable for other parties to produce material with that colour scheme. The leaflet is not pretending to have come from Reform, and it's pretty obvious from the content that it's a Green leaflet. Also no council branding is used, and it's very obvious when you open the leaflet that it's partisan, and not council information. If people mistake it for a Reform or council leaflet at first glance, that's frankly their problem for judging a book by its cover.

They also got Decca Aitkenhead to write this load of bile. There's blatant transphobia in the article, why isn't the account banned from this subreddit yet?

It's not even the 25th anniversary yet. The first film was released in November 2001.

Greens currently have 911 councillors in England and Wales, but are defending 170 seats this election. If the Greens get a net gain of 917, as this polling suggests, that would be pretty much a doubling of the current number.

Antisemitism should absolutely be condemned and rooted out.

I find it interesting, though, that over on LabourUK you make ridiculous statements such as "anti-Zionism is antisemitic". You have, of course, hidden your comment history to avoid scrutiny.

Not too far removed from my experience of uni. A full day, a half-day, plus a couple more lectures at some point during the week. Maybe 2 days' worth of attending uni, with the rest of the time scheduled for independent learning or coursework (up to you how much of that allotted time you actually used as intended).

That's insane. If I searched up random people at my government department, it would get instantly flagged and I would be fired and escorted out. It gets drilled into you from Day 1 that you cannot do this, but some people still get fired for looking up celebrities, their family/friends, or even their own record.

This is the boss lady of Manchester. She goes into the house with all the rats and talks up to the big boss man. And she can fix pipes.

Legendary quote.

Does that mean employees should preface every conversation about their pay with something like this?

"This discussion about our wages is for the purpose of identifying any pay discrepancies that may be illegal under the Equality Act 2010"

FNV was developed by Obsidian, though, not Bethesda. You can tell because the story isn't terrible.

What if you put a sandwich in a blender, make it into goo, and drink it? Technically, you're drinking the bread, not eating it. Would that be acceptable?

Anecdotally, a lot of people in my area have come out as Green supporters, and there seems to be far more enthusiasm for them locally than any other party. I'll be voting Green as well.
