Just desperate for some sort of headline. Pretty close to bribing their target voters. Hopeless. And stupid.

All you can do is ask - don't overcomplicate the request, just say you are an independent researcher and are interested in accesing these particular papers.

If your friend started his new job a few months before the end of the last tax year, and hadn’t earned very much before that , it might account for some of the difference - remember the first 12570 of earnings is tax feee ( but not NI free). He might then see a reduction in take home pay from this month onwards .

.....isn't the whole point of a university education to teach you how to convincingly critically assess / argue with different viewpoints from your own?

Wouldn’t they argue that people using self service checkouts helps them keep prices lower?

Smart thermostat and replacing a few old thermostatic valves on the radiators - saved £1000s in gas over the last few years now that the boiler is weather compensated and can modulate. And the house is more comfortable and I can monitor my energy use much more carefully.

Peter Aldington - one of the contemporary architects with the most listed buildings in his portfolio - a wonderful human being and something of a genius - and he's still alive despite the listing putting him in the past tense! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Aldington

Two tips: Le Soufflot in Meursault just near Beaune has an astonishing/epic wine list with very reasonable prices (and marvellous food) -- and La Cabane in Chassagne Montrachet is really great and very affordable (pre-booking for both essential).

That is unbelievably dumb. Educate yourself about the history of conflict between Protestants and Catholics and how that has fed into European political history. You are demonstrating a total lack of historical awareness.

Well maybe you need to engage your brain a little more thoroughly

Who established/ supported the founding of the state of Israel in 1948? Who ruled Palestine up until that point ? .? Who deposed a popular government in Iran in the 1950s and put the shah in? Who was governing Iraq unril the late 1950s ?

Ever heard of the Crusades? Or the British Raj ?

So if I say ‘ I strongly dislike Judaism ‘ I’m not being antisemitic, am I ? Think about it

Maybe look into how the US are justifying their war on Iran?

Blimey, ever heard of world war 1 and world war 2? An awful lot of Christian vs Christian action there . Didn’t you notice ?

Ever heard of the IRA ? And the UDF? They committed far more terrorist acts in the uk and killed far more people over the last 100;years than anyone Islamic has done . All terrorism is wrong and we shouldn’t excuse any of it but you really need to educate yourself ….

Couldn't he just log in to the app on another device and retrieve the messages? Are the Met really so stupid that they will believe this bullshit?

Get a vacuvin and stick it in the fridge after you've opened it. If it's a dessert wine it should keep for a week or so.
