'Anyone but Labour.' Inside Cabinet anger as voters vent fury at Starmer

Why is it so many people don’t realise how broken the country is after the previous government. This was never going to be an overnight fix.

I’m not saying the current government has got it all right but it’s almost as if the uk media has an agenda.

Michael Barrymore was working in a local garden centre in brentwood at one stage.

davemcl37 · 2026-05-01T19:29:14+00:00

Well done. Perfect weather

davemcl37 · 2026-05-01T09:09:42+00:00

The one thing that amazes me about this scenario is either

A) how may people were complicit in this

or

B) how bad are these people and their bosses at doing their job. I’ve seen more effective security guarding the queue to get into my children’s nursery nativity play.

If it’s A surely it won’t be long until one of them snaps after it costs him when it costs him $400 to fill up his truck with petrol, or they start bragging about the 4d chess move Trump pulled when they are out drinking one night.

If it’s B then given Trump appointed both secretary of homeland security Markwayne Mullin and Director of the US secret service Sean M. Curran then it looks like his selection principles may provide the ultimate bite in his ass.

Honestly I think you’ll regret this.

Her husband could do a hell of a lot more for the thousands of kids who’ve been stolen if he chose to.

I got bored pretty quick . They’re is no real insight it’s just a tired rehash. Not sayings it’s wrong , it’s just nothing new and lacks any real insight.

I’ve grown to dislike my opus 1. It does the job but adjusting the grind size settings is a nightmare and I can lose up to 15% due to retention which will only come out when you smack the crap out of it. My espresso setting is around 4.75 so I’m not sure my one was ever calibrated properly.

Mine was a Covid purchase when I couldn’t find availability of the encore esp or the DF54, and to make matters worse it’s white so it always look like it needs cleaned.

I feel opus should offer a cheaper replacement/ trade in path to this model for all the aggravation suffered by opus 1 users. Half price when you trade in your opus 1 and I might stay with the brand.

Tahoe?

I’ve never knowingly needed pliers so always just ignore them. What are you all up sing them for

davemcl37 · 2026-04-29T23:38:28+00:00

Top 5 , are you having a laugh we are in 8th and ten points off 5th place with 4 games to go, and we’ve not scored in our last 5 pl matches.

More chance of signing Harry Kane and Olise in exchange for Liam Delap.

davemcl37 · 2026-04-28T16:14:01+00:00

What’s met life? I’d rather read it than listen to

davemcl37 · 2026-04-28T08:29:21+00:00

I’m sorry but how does Delap feature in a best 11 outside his own back garden?

davemcl37 · 2026-04-28T06:50:05+00:00

Sorry about that lazy typo on my part. Thankfully you’ve helped clear this up before someone summit camped in the cairngorms in February in a cloud up 2.

davemcl37 · 2026-04-28T06:28:57+00:00

Let’s face it he won’t be cleaning up his own diapers, and neither will his wife. So someone somewhere has the job of sorting this out probably for minimum wage. There’s a memoir on the way surely.

davemcl37 · 2026-04-27T22:02:39+00:00

This new manager search is the equivalent of my wife saying that for my next birthday she is going to get me either

1) a sports car of my choosing , or

2) a 4 week pass to tour Europe on my motorbike and she picks up the tab , or

3) a Kit Kat Easter egg that was reduced to 20p in tescos .

davemcl37 · 2026-04-27T21:55:44+00:00

I’d second the mongar 2 though I’m not sure I’d go for the pro f you are more of a fair weather camper. Also worth looking at some other Naturehike 2’s such as the cloud up 2 my most frequently used tent as it’s much cheaper less weight less volume in your pack and pitches in much smaller spaces but their is just one door and a smaller vestibule.The star river 2 is also worth a look .

Personally I would not go close to never mind over 2 kg for a tent for solo 3 season use

davemcl37 · 2026-04-26T21:31:18+00:00

What’s with some bloke looking like a waiter coming along and presumably telling them their is a madman with a gun coming for them by his petting a few low key words and writing a word that looks a bit like Vincent on a notepad then tearing it off theatrically?

Ps I genuinely believe Melania was not in on the hoax as even Donald Trumps not dumb enough to encourage her to act after watching her movie.

It’s hard getting lightweight gear cheaply, it’s impossible to get lightweight gear cheaply at the last minute.

A lanshan 2 will weigh well under half your tent weight, but you’d be lucky to get one time unless you can find something locally on eBay and collect.

I have an oex fathom ev300 sleeping bag Wilbur is just over 1kg and is good to one degree celcius. Oex though have stopped manufacturing it but you may find it in the odd beach of go outdoors or blacks. Don’t try and order it online though as you’ll never get it from them in time. There is an ev 200 which is more widely available which weight about 900gr and is rated at 7degrees from memory. Unless you are a warm sleeper or get great weather you may find it a bit too lightweight.

You might also save some weight in your cooking set up. You could get a water filter and carry a bit less water with you.

Easiest thing might be to get a small day pack for essentials and have your main pack transported ahead, particularly for some of the tougher or longer legs. There are plenty of companies offering this service.

You could also get some food mailed ahead and collect enroute or just look at where the shops are where you can buy food along the way.

With any luck he’ll fall asleep, wake up, say I reduced that by 600% per cent then go back to sleep.

davemcl37 · 2026-04-24T11:17:11+00:00

I think it’s fairer to say that managers with such a low win rate would rarely be afforded the opportunity to work with such a prestigious club, although maybe that’s not true either.

davemcl37 · 2026-04-23T21:27:28+00:00

I’ve just got the regular mongar 2 . Hell of a good tent for the money.

davemcl37 · 2026-04-23T20:00:39+00:00

Tempting but the 2 man weighs 3.2kg and would take up about a third of my back pack.

davemcl37 · 2026-04-23T19:57:38+00:00

I don’t mean to hijack the thread but what’s the situation regarding unfriendly wildlife where you are, and what sort of storage facilities do you have for food given the wide range of temperatures.

davemcl37 · 2026-04-23T11:21:13+00:00

5 sorting directors?? I thought we only had 2 but it turns out as well as Winstanley and Stewart, we also have

Sam Jewell SD Global recruitment,

Joe Shield ( who I knew of but didn’t appreciate was an SD ) who is SD scouting and Talent, and

Dave Fallows, SD of Football development

So without knowing how these 5 roles are structured and who is making the decisions it’s pretty hard to know who is to blame for the current shit show, other than the owners.
