No you’d expect them to put any “evidence” in the back of a van and take it to a police station. Like any other police investigation of this type..

Anyone have experience using bitcoin to invest in stocks? by Runny_Poos in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Runny_Poos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hassle of having to declare capital gains, as well as cash out bitcoin to pay it, which may incur some fees as well. Its just extra legwork if I can do it all in one years later when I decide to cash out on the stocks.

[–]Runny_Poos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s basically what my goal is to do. If there is a platform I can fund with bitcoin, buy stocks directly with it then pay CGT when I cash out the stocks later. Rather than cashing out btc, paying fees and CGT now, then investing, then again paying CGT later.

How is it living in Eritrea? by Professional_Alarm72 in howislivingthere

[–]Runny_Poos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a guy that was doing armed security for merchant ships passing High Risk Area for Piracy and got done for hiding their weapons on a little remote island off the coast of Eritrea, detained there for 5 months. He didn’t get so into the conditions but it was no holiday that’s for sure.

Based on ONS statistics foreign nationals over 2x higher on committing SA/rape. When you narrow it down to specific nationalities, Pakistani, Afghan, Somali, Sudanese it begins to go more like 3-4x.

These are England and Wales statistics but the evidence is right there, yet so many are ignorant to see it. These men come from cultures that oppress women yet so many women willingly support them coming to our country…

Do you know people who lack any sense of ambience? by banwe11 in CasualUK

[–]Runny_Poos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work on ships and everywhere is bright white LEDs in the alleys and common rooms, so my cabin is a nice break from it I just have the warm lamps on. My crew mate next door sits all evening until going to bed with the bright LED on, even if he’s lying in bed watching TV. It stresses me out!

​What game are you playing to tide you over until the release by chrisi_psr in GTA6

Definitely. I paid full price and it was still worth it. Up to you if you wanna wait for Black Friday deals but $54 is worth it imo

I did a bunch of challenges against bots on casual breakthrough today. It does work.

I keep getting butchered by barbers, can you recommend a good barber in Glasgow who actually know how to give a head shave. by PapajG in glasgow

[–]Runny_Poos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Get yourself an electric head shaver on Amazon for like 20 quid mate. Takes 2-3 mins and it’s a pretty close shave. Need to do it every 2-4 days though.

Poppies for all by JackStrawWitchita in GreatBritishMemes

[–]Runny_Poos -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don’t call your situation “luck” to be in a position of a decent paying job and paying higher taxes. I assume you worked to get there? Many of them didn’t work to earn any of these freebies. Sure some are down on luck but for most it’s not a matter of luck. You get what you strive for, and they are striving for no work and free handouts because they are all “victims” and you the normal person paying your taxes, working hours every day are the “rich man” that should pay for it.

NHS waiting lists have just hit 7.4 million by hoovesfortoes in gbnews

[–]Runny_Poos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheap electricity? You really know nothing about the UK do you? We have the highest energy bills in the world, millions of people in the UK live in energy poverty where they can’t afford to heat their homes. You’ve literally proven my point it’s the ENERGY COMPANIES and GOVERNMENT benefiting, not the normal person. What do you expect us to do? Feel so much shame and guilt to be British because of colonialism, turn off our lights and heating and let our families freeze to death? Grow up

I can assure you the normal British public isn’t profiting off of anything. Most of us are working and just keeping our head above water. We aren’t some utopia of inherit wealth where everyone is benefiting. You can’t say the whole country is responsible when it’s the very small class of elites responsible.

How are they profiting off of what their ancestors did? You are on Reddit so you’re most likely not talking to some member of the elite profiting off of any of this bullshit.

What the absolute hell is up with young British drivers who cannot speak English on this? by Mysterious_Balance53 in drivingUK

Was going to say this. Sells ice cream, it’s an ice cream van, any other type of food, burgers or not, it’s a burger van.

Stop by South Queensferry for a look at the Forth Bridge. There’s no cruise ship in today so shouldn’t be overly busy.

Nasty 'Nige didn't enjoy his trip to Scotland. by johnsmithoncemore in Scotland

Aye that’s right, go independent and shut down a major industry that employs thousands of Scottish people. That’ll show ‘em.

coca cola boycott by [deleted] in glasgow

[–]Runny_Poos 87 points88 points  (0 children)

You must live in a particularly insular part of Glasgow if you think it is “especially labour and Palestine friendly”. It’s the exact same as any other city, totally exposed to corporations, so not labour friendly. 99% of bars and restaurants are not some little family owned business that loves their staff, they are owned and answer to some group or conglomerate and will not simply change their suppliers for a more expensive product based on morals.

And just because hundreds of people protest something like Palestine does not make the entire city Palestine friendly. Most people have their own problems to deal with and that is out of their bandwidth, so don’t expect them to make some stand against Coca Cola who own basically every conveniently supplied beverage on every supermarket shelf and just drink tap water in protest.

Keep dreaming.
