  1. True dat.
  2. Hang on... Weren't you telling us the other day that the more the virus mutates, the less 'nasty' it becomes (a sentiment I agree with to be fair), due to the fact that the virus's main goal is to replicate / reproduce, rather than kill off its hosts? Surely the more mutations there are, then the chance of a really nasty mutation occurring actually diminishes?
  3. But able to read names on a mong board
  4. Surely that's better than the alternative
  5. 10% drop in value today because Elon Musk sent out a tweet! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-57096305 Anyone investing their hard earned into an unregulated industry with zero guarantees and culpability needs their head read!
  6. Imagine if a man developed a pill that stopped the menopause - there would be uproar from certain sections that a 'man' is messing with female biology and denying women the liberation of the menopause.
  7. This has aged well! Soggy will be apoplectic with this one : https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-57093267
  8. Do you think PR would give the same representation of those in Cornwall as it would to those in London / Manchester / Birmingham? That would be important wouldn't it, given that people in different areas find different things appealing?
  9. No. https://unctad.org/news/unrealized-potential-palestinian-oil-and-gas-reserves
  10. If there was adequate opposition and an appealing alternative then there wouldn't be a 'pretty good idea of how the votes will pan out', it's not rocket science is it?
  11. It would appear you have missed the point entirely, once again! The fact that the 'system' is 'wrong', still does not detract from the blindingly obvious fact that each and every vote counts the same (at the time they are cast), given that no one knows who anyone else is voting for. You'd know this if you had the bottle to turn up and vote on important issues
  12. That's not the fault of "one person, one vote" though. That's the fault of the parties not being attractive.
  13. And yet, when you cast your vote you don't know what everyone else is voting for, so yours is equally as valid at that point....
  14. Christ! Imagine the flag you'd need to create for that!
  15. To be fair to Emma, even if women or transgender men watch football, they wouldn't be eligible to participate in this particular survey : Not sure why anyone completing the survey would need to watch football though :
  16. Haven't they all been awarded a nice £100k fine?
  17. And you thought this would be the right place? How are the "2 x £10" Amazon vouchers going to be awarded if the responses are anonymous?
  18. No more working class people to represent?
  19. Nah. Knowing that the play offs will be happening - no matter how hard they try to ignore them - is going to hurt them even more, especially as they should have easily qualified for them!
  20. Really? You couldn't see anything that the opposition could have capitalised on over the past year? Cummings? Lockdown fiasco last March? tens of thousands of dead care home residents? emptying hospitals into care homes? PPE? Up until the vaccine rollout, the opposition literally only had to 'oppose' to look good. Boris has been indecisive and inept throughout the pandemic and yet Starmer hasn't managed to gain any political capital in the past 12 months! WTF has he been waiting for?
  21. I, four one, am absolutely gutted they are spending another year languishing in division 3.
  22. Why have you gone off on a tangent about the 'unvaccinated world'? The article I posted a link to was about the UK where we have millions of vaccines...
  23. Not to mention the 'lost' tax revenue which is far more transparent in a cashless society
  24. Is that the same reason for the other results? At time of writing, Cons up 4, Lab down 3 in councils. Cons up 95, Lab down 115 in councillors. Got to be down to Brexit hasn't it (although I thought Brexit was just for racists and loons!)?
