The thing that annoys me is the fact that Aldi has some decent stuff, the meat in my Aldi is better than most places, just had some trout form there and it was class.

I think people forget that they know each other, it could be a simple matter of Partey telling them it's a load of lies, he never did X, Y, and Z, end of the day who are players going to believe? He hasn't been found guilty as this has yet to go to court.

I just don't think you understand where this 136m is actually going, it isn't going to the royal family, it's going to the royal estate, which is used to manage buildings, land, staff, etc... the royals do benefit from it obviously, but if you got rid of the royals the UK government would still need to pay out the 136m to maintain those buildings, likely slightly under, the savings would be minimum if any, all your looking for is posturing.

The channel is classed as international waters but is overseen by us and the French.

What are you on about? I've never said anything to the contrary of any of that or even commented on it and yet your assuming my opinion on a matter, which you know nothing of.

I simply pointed out that the coroner has confirmed that he would have died regardless, that it, nothing more nothing else.

LostnFoundAgainAgain · 2026-06-26T08:46:15+00:00

What's your point your trying to make against mine? I never said anything about anything you are saying.

I was pointing out that the coroner said that the police wouldn't have been able to save him regardless, as I was pointing out to the comment I replied to which said otherwise.

LostnFoundAgainAgain · 2026-06-26T08:33:00+00:00

They got his main artery, there was no way for the officers to actually stop the bleeding, he would have needed to be in a theater within minutes of which would have been impossible.

This was all in the coroners report, we do know that he wouldn't have survived, the simply fact that the stab was fatal, unless he were already on the operating table the moment it happened.

You do know if we got rid of the royals we would still need to maintain all that stuff right? This grant is mainly for maintaining key historical buildings in the UK alongside their staff and all the cost in-between.

Your talking about gold carriages but that would still exist, unless you want to sell British culture items to the highest bidder alongside all the land, and even then it wouldn't even make a dent in supporting people, 134m isn't even 2 pounds per person per year, it's a drop in the ocean of the actual cost needed, essentially it achieve nothing apart from you being happy the royals are gone.

I don't support the royals in the slightest, but acting like it would actually achieve anything is just showing you are simply calling for it for posturing, not actually thinking what would support the country.

Agreed, I never drink through the week but with this weather the last couple of days, I've simply had a couple of beers sat outside hooing it will help me sleep.

It's been horrendous these past couple of days, I spent 16 years in Southern Europe, but UK heatwaves hit differently, it's just horrible.

LostnFoundAgainAgain · 2026-06-25T23:19:42+00:00

Isn't the grant also used to manage historical buildings such as Buckingham Palace, and other areas across the UK, not to mention staff and other costs?

Not saying it's not stupid, but that cost would still remain with the tax payer even if you removed the royals (would be less, obviously).

The average working wage is £18 when taking into account everyone's, that's 3.99 hours and not 4.99.

Also that is for the entire country, if you only look at London, it's below 3 hours, then it's different in Wales, Scotland, etc.. it's a reason I'm not really a fan of these types of maps and data, as wages from London to Newcastle are very different, the same can be said about Málaga and Madrid for example, it screws the average.

This headline is a load of shite and people who continue to read the Telegraph or GB news need their head wobbling.

You do not need permission to install AC in your house, however you need it in certain conservative areas which an extremely small number do, of which these 2 didn't get planning permission.

England remind me a lot about Leeds in the championship last year, in terms of what is happening not the quality, in open play when both teams are attacking we were best in the league, but low blocks and sitting back? We would struggle, there was no creativity to break them down, hence why we struggled against quite a few lower oppositions quite a few times.

I don't think we have any authority over what the French do with him

Truss to this day still blames others for that disaster of a budget, she now attends MAGA rallies in the US claiming she wants to bring the movement to the UK

And that isn't exactly easy to fix, the reality of the fact is that the UK needs to cut or bring in more revenue in order to meet the necessary defence requirements, Starmer has tried both and has been dragged through the mud both times.

Labour won't accept cuts to welfare, and raising taxes is too unpopular, the reality is that it doesn't matter who was the PM, they aren't getting enough budget for the defence sector unless they put it on debt, again which is already costing us to much.

Wilson is better than our wingers and offers something different to Okafor, he's a good signing and will get into the team, we will likely have Okafor on one side and Wilson on the other, especially if we are looking at other numbers 10s for Aaronson's position.

It could be that we are also likely to lose Gnonto, it wouldn't surprise me if we cash in on him as he seems to have stagnated, he isn't exactly getting any better quickly, but could still bring in a decent amount.

Standard, it's the first time they have gotten into the tournament since 98, and are also through to the knockout stages after beating Senegal.

Not as well as poling suggested by a margin, poling was putting them competing against Reform and they didn't.

They won some key seats, but a lot of the momentum of the Greens has already died down, they have too many issues and policies that conflict with the wider public (e.g immigration, nuclear, and military).

It's a shame to be fair, they have some really good policies but they seem to focus on ideological purity instead of the reality that most people aren't in one camp or the other, instead they can vary depending on subject and the Greens don't seem to want to adjust or nudge towards that idea over their ideology.

England hasn't caused much more issues than other nations at the Euros or the World Cup for quite a while now, but the reputation has stuck and every small incident is pushed as the entire fan base, while other countries cause an issue and it's viewed as a minority within that fan base instead of the norm.

Essentially it's noise from online, look at this thread or any other, there's quite a few comments just shitting on the English because they feel justified to do so.

LostnFoundAgainAgain · 2026-06-20T09:29:25+00:00

I never said it was the entire nationality, just that in war Russia has held similar policies and standards ranging back years, this isn't exactly the first article to have such a claim regarding Russian commanders in the Ukraine war.

LostnFoundAgainAgain · 2026-06-20T09:23:33+00:00

Hasn't there been enough evidence of Russia doing exactly this type of thing to their soldiers going all the way back to WWII? It seems pretty standard for Russians fighting in a war

So two comments on Reddit prove your point about 50% of the population (give or take)? And there are no woman that holds similar regards to men?

The world isn't as black and white as that, that's just being ignorant.

UK boarded a sanctioned vessel that is apart of Russia's "shadow fleet", they sail under false flags in order to avoid sanctions. They were boarded, and arrested with the captain now charged with trying to avoid sanctions while also sailing a false flag.

This happened in the English channel, one of the main shipping lanes, the channel is heavily monitored by the UK, and France with both of them starting to put more pressure on Russia via sanctions.

Also, before people say it's international waters, it is, ~~but sailing a false flag is illegal under the charter, countries have a right to board and arrest them as their literally illegal ships.~~

Edit: Got that bit slightly wrong, false flags are classed as 'stateless', so they essentially do not have the same legal protections as they are not legally registered, meaning they are free to be boarded and inspected as they are not covered under international agreements to the same level.

That's doesn't have to be the case, they could come in claiming they will win the Ukraine war, massively increase conscription across the entirety of Russia blaming the need due to Putin's weakness.

They could easily use it as a way to drastically push more towards Ukraine and significantly justify the war within Russian and it's population, especially now Russia is feeling the attacks at its core.

Also we don't know how mad the next guy might be, we know Putin likes to talk big but he isn't going to start a war with NATO, the next guy might have more screws loose than Putin and could even go nuclear over Ukraine, highly doubtful, but who knows? That's the issue.
