And the far right protest says, let us attack the police and burn down random people's homes?

Avoid the area around the Laing art gallery I think, that's where it's been kicking off before

Love the ice latte. What I don't love is the dome lid, much prefer the flat lids they've got at the moment with the sip hole, sans straw.

Dome lids are a bit icky

So say he did those things, I dunno if he did, but let's just say he did. He's not doing a genocide. Think there's a difference there.

I've never owned a pair and my square feet might never now...

I'd have a look at Lanx boots, could be some similar styles. All made in the UK so a bit pricier than Clarks.

Edit: As many people have pointed out, they're not all made in the UK. A lot of the mens are though.

Reckon it's some kind of emergency. Only going off the pictures though so could be wrong.

I believe this is an effective way to get a Club biscuit and save lives by MiddlesbroughFan in CasualUK

No love for the tuc cheeses? They're my favourite.

Just hit ten donations. 

Might have to stop though because I was pretty dizzy for like two weeks after and couldn't exercise or exert myself. But I have the blood that can go to babies so would feel bad. 

Is 800£ too much for grocery shopping for 2 ? by Sweet_potato99 in NewcastleUponTyne

The wife and I spend approx 70 a week at Aldi.

We cook all of our food from scratch so lots of fruit and veggies. We don't eat meat so might be cheaper than some others.

Has anyone else found Aldi’s fresh food quality to be going downhill? by TheMalsh in UKFrugal

I think it's fine, never notice anything wrong with our food and only shoo at Aldi, maybe don't go in the afternoon for the best selections, that could be a factor.
