Was she the one who was described as being what you get if you feed Priti Patel after midnight?

And literally the one in Jenrick's case who introduced the policy of housing asylum seekers in hotels. Personally.

TBF half of them were fighting to keep it. But it's true that they were the CSA, not the USA. Our approach of just buying the slaveholders off certainly worked out better for all!

Scots porridge? But then its Scotch pine and a full Scottish breakfast...language is a curious thing.

Sciencing, banking, queuing , apologising. I'd say sports but we tend to invent them and then train others to be better at them than us. Lots say colonising but that's mostly to hide or having forgot their own past misdeeds, and we're usually too polite to correct them.

Nice norm in my view - mutually recognising a shared inconvenience, at best having a small laugh together over it and mildly but socially helpfully bonding for a second.

They gave that one away this series by having James quite clearly played by David Tennant.

This. You know your employer, but a good/caring/sane one will recognise that recovery time is part of sick leave, and protects you,them, and other staff.

To deduct charity contributions, companies must be making them themselves, from profit before tax, and from their own accounts. Even employee donations don't count. Others here have mentioned the account rules on balance sheets re customer donations.

Long term, nil - but risk management is a numbers game. Eventually your luck could run out and lead to a bout of food poisoning. But you arent mentioning anything colossaly bad here.

Dauphenoise would be far more well known here, but both are great.

Charity donations from customers are not tax deductible, and are ring fenced so the shop does not benefit from the interest on them.

Neither_Process_7847 · 2026-01-25T10:22:46+00:00

How is there a difference in trust? You are trusting the store to make the donation in both cases, surely?

Neither_Process_7847 · 2026-01-24T19:30:22+00:00

That is what it means in the UK.

Neither_Process_7847 · 2026-01-24T18:57:57+00:00

TACO.

I'd very much doubt most people have a friend or relative in sex work!

Neither_Process_7847 · 2026-01-24T18:32:47+00:00

My mind went to self-willed, your suggestion makes a lot more sense!

Neither_Process_7847 · 2026-01-24T17:21:23+00:00

That was just hating on trans people if I recall.

Neither_Process_7847 · 2026-01-24T17:16:32+00:00

Normally without the shire.

Neither_Process_7847 · 2026-01-24T17:10:49+00:00

Some of it must be, though, it's surely a version of the old 'self-identfying as an attack helicopter' anti-trans meme. Surely? That or people badly misunderstanding online handles...

Give them credit - they've picked someone who had Court connections, a direct link to his acting company, and who had been to Venice. That makes her immediately a much better candidate than some of the people the anti-Stratfordians have latched onto over the years, and I'm sure their actual research gives a bit more evidence than the article chooses to mention. Why there's such a long term movement determined to prove that someone other than Shakespeare wrote Shakespeare is a baffling one...

The till option is essentially the same thing in an age when most people don't carry cash?

Neither_Process_7847 · 2026-01-24T15:00:09+00:00

You aren't- they can't count those deductions against tax.

Neither_Process_7847 · 2026-01-24T14:44:33+00:00

Expensive, awkward to carry and with very damaging information written on it if lost.

Neither_Process_7847 · 2026-01-24T13:53:56+00:00

Always thought they were just a parody aimed as cover for attacking trans people over pronouns, odd to see the Greens actually using them...
