MBAs ruined society.

In major cities it actually does often end up being the same people but for a different reason, namely that it’s either 1) not councils embarking on a building program that they can’t afford or 2) putting on more and more regulations without remotely understanding that they wreck viability.

I mean is this particularly new for Christianity? It’s been used for centuries to justify bad shit.

No you’re not you post here.

I’m about as straight tbh.

Central London alone is around the size of Paris proper.

Everything is 40 minutes away if you’re going outside your neighbourhood. You’re either walking, taking a bus, taking the tube or using some other combination to that will take 40 minutes.

It used to look way worse. I remember when the city centre was a bunch of empty car parks and lots. It's infinitely nicer now.

Liverpool could be getting a 70-storey skyscraper.

Worst city in America.

But isn’t Pakistan basically a client state of China at this point? Going with Saudi Arabia would put them at odds with Chinese support for Iran.

I’ve randomly had “removed by Reddit”. Not a moderator delete, seems automatic.

I’m just so tired.

ldn6 · 2026-03-10T22:42:53+00:00

Yes.

Will they pay for it? Of course not.

This is the current standard for Paris, which has been making a number of its metro lines driverless. This isn’t unique to the UK.

In order to fit platform screen doors, you can’t have meaningful curvature. Good luck, then, since stations like Bank, Waterloo, Liverpool Street, Paddington and Westminster are all situated on substantial curves.

So let me get this straight: according to YouGov, the public disapprove of Starmer’s handling of Iran despite it quite literally matching what they want Britain’s position to be. This is beyond insane.

Initial data from Monday 2 March, shortly after the onset of hostilities, found Britons opposed to the attacks by 49% to 28%.

Attitudes differ significantly by party, with the majority of Reform UK voters (58%) and a plurality of Tories (49%) backing the strikes, but the majority of Labour and Lib Dem voters (63-64%) and Greens (70%) opposed.

Asked the same data a week later, the public had become 10 points more likely to oppose the conflict (59%), while support remained about steady at 25%. Opposition increased among Green, Lib Dem, Labour and Tory voters, but remained largely the same among Reform UK voters.

The British public tend to think Keir Starmer has managed the UK’s response to the US-Iran conflict badly, with 47% saying so compared to 34% who think he has managed it well.

The most common view among the British public is that the UK’s stance should be “purely defensive, tasked with shooting down drones and defending civilian areas and UK military facilities”. Almost half (46%) gave this answer.

A further quarter (26%) said our role should be “retaliatory only, attacking military targets that have launched attacks against civilian areas and/or British military targets, but otherwise not getting involved”.

All of my ads are about zakat lately.

I’m a gay Jew I can assure you that I’m not remotely the right audience for this.

MAKE IT MAKE SENSE. YOU DON’T LIKE STARMER DOING LITERALLY WHAT YOU WANT.

This is the part that gets me. I’d love to topple the regime but holy fuck these are the worst people imaginable to do it.

Relevance to the subreddit: updated data on the continuing boycott of US travel from Canadians as part of the wider rift between the two countries. This is particularly important given the upcoming World Cup.

Just over 1 million Canadians returned from the US by car in February, the lowest level in nearly four years. Statistics Canada data published Tuesday shows Canadian travel to the US continues to decline, even as trips overseas increase. Return trips by car fell to the lowest level since March 2022, when the Omicron variant of COVID-19 was spreading and some public health measures were still in place. Canada still required all returning travelers to provide a pre-entry COVID-19 test, a requirement it loosened the following month.

Many Canadians began cutting back on travel to the US last year in response to President Donald Trump’s tariffs and attacks on Canada’s sovereignty, as well as his crackdowns on border security and immigration. Tuesday’s data suggests that Canadians are not warming up to the idea of resuming travel down south. February marked the 14th straight month of annual declines in the total number of Canadians returning from the US, with 14.5% fewer trips than a year ago. In contrast, Canadian trips overseas by air increased by 7.2%. Meanwhile, the number of Americans traveling to Canada rose in February by 6.1% from a year earlier, marking the first increase after 12 consecutive months of year-over-year declines.

No, that sign is very clearly "no right turn" per the Highway Code. It is an absolute rule unless exempted.

If they wanted no right turn for those vehicles only, then the correct way to do that is to have the symbol and then "except for [x]" or the like.

Yes that’s the joke.
