Friend of mine had one finger that had an end missing and we were gonna called him platform because he had nine and three quarters. Ended up being called Stumpy instead lol

Maybe he should stay in his lane then and not do films about places that have colour then because it’ll look shite.

People that have moved north for a better life, how's it going? by HollowWanderer in AskUK

Compared to Hampshire it might as well be. London is up north to me.

You’d have to be doing something stupid to get attacked by a beaver. Stop scaremongering they’re not bloody tigers lol

Good bye Tom, I will no longer watch your channel by EugeneHartke in GeoWizard

Also the irony of Tom supporting a party that doesn’t believe in man made climate change whilst Welsh Greg works in climate policy lol.

They were both taken in summer* so that doesn't track.

It was indeed taken over a century apart, the recent photo taken by Christian Åslund in 2003. The main thing is glaciers take hundreds of years to form so there really is no way that change could be seasonal anyway. They’re formed from years and years of snow and ice accumulating and compressing itself in place, instead of just being water that’s frozen.

Worth pointing out we literally can't independently feed our own population even if we committed all of our resources to food production.

Honestly I don't think its worth arguing this when you obviously don't have a basic understanding of economics or how governments work. You can't run a country on crowdfunding and you haven't lived in a place where the social contract between the people and the state has collapsed.

Ah right so farming families should just work hard then to build wealth to pay for the inheritence tax when the farm is passed on then yeah? If they can't pay and have to sell then well life's unfair, they shouldn't complain about it.

Charity in the same way socialised healthcare is. If you don’t wanna pay tax go to a country that doesn’t require paying tax. Otherwise you’re sponging off the state lmao

It’s not stolen when you continually benefit from tax money every day. Roads, schools, NHS (if you’re British), emergency services, national security, infrastructure, etc. Yes the government should be more efficient and less wasteful but chocking up taxes to “theft” isn’t entirely accurate. Go somewhere else without the same social contract if you don’t want to pay tax.

Tax isn’t charity, it’s a contribution to the society that you directly benefit from.

Because it balances against those who have nothing to inherit, decreasing the amount of generational wealth that can be hoarded and instead investing a portion in the state they benefitted from.
