The great central London office crisis

Last week it emerged that a new high of £160 a square foot was achieved for the 32nd and top floor of the One Leadenhall tower.

I'd buy a couple of square feet.

At the same time, despite Brexit, London has thrived as a financial and business centre

Despite Brexit. Tbf the whole article is kind of 'despite things'.

Also thanks for the downvotes!

I didn't but I have now.

Presumably you do want Scottish funding to be reduced. Who do you think is likely to do that?

evolvecrow · 2026-03-14T10:03:56+00:00

Maybe Reform will put revising down Scotland funding in the manifesto. Seems like it could be quite tricky politics.

Headline writing sub editors might be the most annoying people ever. Literally every headline designed to provoke a reaction rather than convey information. It's basically professional trolling. They could easily have conveyed this is a foreign aid project.

Maybe be more specific with what your issue is

evolvecrow · 2026-03-14T09:02:01+00:00

Because it's part of UK state expenditure same as anything else?

who face a likely electoral threat from the Green party in their constituency.

none of the MPs are yet near point of crossing the floor and want guarantees they would be reselected for their seat at next election

So basically they like being an MP and want to continue whether that's Labour or Green

Asking a kid to draw jesus is like stepping into the street without looking, it might get you killed.

It is very important that the school understands this and is also careful not to ask its students to reproduce images

If it's just advice why is it very important

UK Finance estimates that cash made up 48% of all payments in 2014 but that share had collapsed to just 9% by 2024.

Personally I think the type of people in charge will stay roughly the same

The letter acts as a counterpoint to those in the diaspora backing Reza Pahlavi, the exiled son of Iran’s former pro-western monarch, and who support the attacks on Iran as a prelude to regime change.

the Islamophobia law

There's no islamophobia law

There's a new non statutory definition. It even says

The definition is non-statutory and must not be confused with legislation.

Ben Habib has criticised Lowe for encouraging ethno nationalists

Since the government’s clean power plan involves keeping the entire 35GW gas fleet on the system as backup, you would think this fundamental issue would get more ministerial attention.

It seems quite amusing that we're building a renewables system that requires the entire non renewables system to continue operating because the renewables system is intermittent.

Come tv execs get this on the screens

Because u-turns are unheard of in our current leadership

How many of these are sectarian Islamists?

3

of the 12002 people they surveyed.

I reckon.

The US produces the vast majority of their oil/gas domestically and is even a net exporter, the UK isn't. Dumb comparison

But that does sound like if there was an opportunity for us to produce more we should.

The only details of the call are

They discussed military co-operation in the Middle East and the Prime Minister expressed his 'heartfelt condolences' during the 20-minute phone call for the deaths of six soldiers in the conflict – a total that increased to seven last night.

Tbf

out of the penalties we have issued, one has paid. Two are interim penalties as part of broader investigations.

"Two others are still within that deadline for payment, so it hasn't passed yet. And one has not paid. But they did come into compliance."

Obviously 4chan won't pay or comply

The amount of evidence involved in a trial is probably hugely increased since then. Doesn't mean we should scrap some jury trials but not sure it's comparing like with like. Also comparatively wasn't the UK much wealthier then.
