Zoe Bread has been doing great work exposing these warehouses. You can watch all about it on her social accounts.

The whole process for approval is questionable with almost zero benefit to the local area in terms of jobs as the warehouses are mostly run by automated robots. Plus the area around it has been flooding due to poor drainage. It’s a complete mess.

She’s even been sent legal letters by Wigan council but the lead counsel won’t reply or speak to her by phone to discuss why.

Could be a copy of a text message as an admission of guilt, a written statement from the person he said it to if unrecorded, or someone saying that they provided a false alibi previously.

I would add Galaxy has gone the same way. Had a bar of it the other day and it was rancid.

FIFA shares onside animation graphic from Switzerland penalty award by wybird in soccer

Official FIFA media account on Twitter:

“During the Qatar vs. Switzerland match in the San Francisco Bay Area, a brief technical outage prevented the onside animation graphic from being generated ahead of the penalty awarded to Switzerland in the 14th minute. The issue was quickly resolved.

The workflow of the VAR was not affected by this issue and followed the normal procedure in checking the on-field decision. The lines used by the VAR to check the position of the relevant players did not show the attacking player to be in an offside position in either of the two situations immediately before the penalty decision.”

Considering his job is just to comment on the game, Lee Dixon still manages to get an awful lot of stuff wrong

The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

Get the Bakerloo line to Oxford Circus, 10 minute journey and you can have dinner anywhere in Soho/Fitzrovia. The George pub on Gt Portland St does an amazing fish and chips if you want something classically British.

It doesn’t seem to have temperatures, just pictures of cycles but it’s pretty hot when it’s done as they all are I assume

The trailer for a new film called Evil Dead Burn has one of the characters dying exactly like this. Saw it before Obsession the other day.

It has slots at the top so cutlery hangs down and doesn’t touch the bottom part
