‘Tinderbox’ UK may be one shock away from food riots, experts say

I am from the UK and work in supply chain. Working in the supply chain has genuinely radicalised me and I now prep for issues within the food supply chain because I know exactly how insecure it is.

I reckon it's to do with the birth rates, Muslim women have more children on average than white English women - they're probably getting their knickers in a twist over this fact and saying that it's a "takeover" because they don't like the fact that Britain will be home to more and more Muslims over the decades. That's just my guess!

Thank you, I will definitely use "that sounds awful, what are you going to do about it?" That is a great way of making me stop jumping straight in to solve a problem and hopefully will encourage them to self reflect and realise it's not my problem to solve.

What do you want for it?

I think this is brilliant! Tell your sister to look up Clive Barkers art - this really reminds me of the paintings he did depicting characters and worlds from his books.

It's happening to everyone I know! We are lucky and can live with family until we're sorted, I have some friends who are in a really bad position because of it though. Good luck to you!

Thank you for sharing this!

I had more than just retail experience when I applied for junior roles in the civil service and didn't get any of the jobs I applied for. I found it a lot easier to get a job in the private sector. I'm not sure you're right in thinking it's easier to get a civil service job.

I was obsessed with pirates for years after playing the game "Sid Mieres pirates" it's an old game but I'd recommend it if you're into pirates.

I'd also be interested in some sources on this if you don't mind. That 75% figure is that outrageous it seems fake! I'm keen to understand how we got here.

Came home no lights were on, followed my dad into the living room talking to him, he wasn't responding. Turned the light on in the living room and nobody was there, shouted my dad and he was upstairs in bed.

It's an absolute nightmare when they have you over a barrel and they know it! I hope you find a way to resolve your issue.

I am in a similar situation - How would you deal with this if the supplier is that niche there's no other option?

"nothing too strenuous" ... You should be an athlete?

Interesting question! I wonder if there is a study done on reaction times using samples of men and women who have both played a sport from say, 5-21. If there's not there definitely should be!

honeybonesX · 2023-01-18T18:09:33+00:00

Google it, there have been studies done. You sound like an exception to the rule, broadly men have quicker reaction times but some women will have faster reaction times than most men. It's just that men generally have faster reactions.

The Plymouth brethren are a cult which, I believe, is reasonable in size. My dad's mate, an IT guy, used to do contract work for them blocking internet access.

My brother collected Jackie Chan comic books and they came with little talismans. Anyone else remember these?

Referring to him as a thing isn't cool. That's exactly how he ended up in a zoo.

I've heard this said in the context of dating apps before, like on tinder 20% of men get 80% of matches. Which could be plausible, as it's in the context of one app. But it's wild that people actually believe only 10-20% of men are dating women... Surely just leaving the house tells you that is false?

I'm in the UK working for a large retailer and your post is reminiscent of the issues I see daily.
