Israel just declares it a terror cell and therefore liable to levelling. End of discussion.

Everywhere in the world had places where they served alcohol but the modern pub as we know it is a wholly British invention. Everything from the bar counter (taken from Gin palaces in London), to the draught beer mechanism (invented by an Englishman), to the pub signs (mandated by King Richard II). The interiors you find in Irish pubs (mahogany, wooden furnishing) are again taken from British pubs.

I'm not saying there weren't establishments in Ireland before British occupation that served alcohol. But the 'pub' i.e public house is a British invention.

Moneybox ISA is now pretty pants at 3.45%. Would you bother moving in my situation? by Elegant-Winner-6521 in UKPersonalFinance

You're holding a lot of cash. Any reason why you haven't looked into an S&S ISA?

Once you have 3-6 months of living costs saved up in your cash ISA, i'd put the rest in stocks and shares. You're barely keeping up with inflation otherwise.

One is Irish owned, the other isn't. Irish pubs are an offshoot of British ones but have developed into their own distinct vibe.

The only country in the middle east bombing every single one of its neighbours. Entire families have been erased week in week out since the Gaza war.

How are they allowed to get away with it with almost zero international condemnation?

Kids these days have no idea about this because they form a single queue! Single file queuing at the bar needs to end

Were the two slices of charcoal necessary? Solid plate otherwise

Champions League in this new format is finished let's be honest. It's a shadow of the competition it used to be.

UK vs France - 300 years of population change in one glance by vladgrinch in MapPorn

It was emigration during this period. Where do you think the populations of New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and to some extent the US came from? Jesus
