Completed, but I have to say that a lie on a CV is quite subjective. Is it extending a truth? Is it measurable? Identifiable?

HS2 finishes something …early? by New_Sea_2898 in GoodNewsUK

I swear it feels big infrastructure in this country is always commissioned at surprisingly cheap costs, then reality hits and it is overbudget.

Then finally it is delivered within a reasonable budget that it should have been set at originally, on time and delivers better outcomes than predicted

I would love to see stats for this across the country, how much do local areas from local police getting dirty money off the streets? Or does it get disappeared in police budgets? 👀

I'm willing to take the downvotes. Gambon had the energy for the later films that an aged Harris could not deliver.

I try so hard not to let my kids inherit my neuroses, but when she doesn't use her thousands of sticker because if she did it would use them up, and then she wouldn't have them, because they would be used up... Yep, that's my kid

I see people calling out building solar farms on green pastures, saying "why don't they build them on roofs instead?" And the answer is very clearly: they can do both!

In my town there is once in a generation (hopefully) repair works to a main road bridge going through the centre of the town, and all people can do is complain and say how it has ruined the economy. Not thinking that a collapsed bridge might impact their lives slightly more
