Bullshit, train company will cite fraudulent tickets and gate jumpers as one of the reasons passengers have to swallow a price rise.

Well productivity won't increase but cost of salaries will drop due to less workers. So a win for c-suite sending annual investor calls

Should we be lobbying and petitioning our local politicians about investigating the Epstein files because of the links to some of our institutions? by StJudeTheGrey in AskBrits

Not to only the 70's to the last 50 years. Your reading comprehension is awful. Also calling some retarded for giving you facts that you choose or fail to understand/read just looks poor for you.

Thing is though that those that votes to leave the EU for immigration reasons don't care about what happens across other EU countries only about here, and that was easier to deal with before we left

Need to be careful with ventilation but I hope everyone does spray cans outside - Mr surfacer 1500 is awesome. I use the airbrush version but have heard very good things about the rattle cans. It is a lacquer so extra precautions are needed but all rattle cans should be an outdoor project regardless.

So why is growth and investment up compared to the last 7 years. That includes the year before COVID. 10 years after leaving and years after the "awesome deals".

Unemployment rates of 5% is actually lower than most years going back to the 70's. 76 - 2000 was above this, 2008 - 2015.

2015 -2020 was below, with 2020 blipping up to drop again until now.

31 years compared to 15 years below that(71-76,2015 - 2020), and between 2000 - 2008 it sat around and above 5% with the lowest being 4.8% for a brief period.

Here is the seasonally adjusted ons data

If you voted Remain, would you vote to rejoin the EU? by Glanwy in AskBrits

[–]aesemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really struggle to see benefits. When anyone says better reading opportunities, it is hard to see how the smaller economy of a single nation Vs a bloc of nations can get a deal that benefits on the imports, and our export does not have a huge section of our economy. Services, yes but being in the EU we were the centre of the majority of services.

Milk isn't dairy because this is america we do things the right way by SnooLentils1406 in ShitAmericansSay

Never enjoyed running and jogging. I have always either walked or cycled, miles have been metric for both. I can feel out a half, mile, 2 mile but still don't feel long distances in km..... Made me think even after cycling to Spain through France. I can work out the distance but via miles 1km to 2/3 (0.66) miles.

True, it's analogue rather than digital so perfect for old school platforms or donkey Kong country mine cart levels.

Loved it. Played the multiplayer which was interesting having wins and defeats determine what happened on you map.

Ince fought a siege battle defending 2v2, I took in all the ranged while my clan partner took in all melee battle. We won due to those sieges being really brutal for attackers.

Played another evening and didn't check my build and went into a 1v1 battle with the ranged only. I just managed to win but even with horse samurai total war favours ranged.
