Just messaged one of my mates who lives out there, apparently workers hours are being ramped up as well (they were bad enough to begin with).

Where did I put this on you? I'm talking about what Ratcliffe said.

Well, it's not a generation ago, it's 5 years ago apparently. Again, if you don't like brown people then people shouldn't have voted for Brexit.

Considering we've had the Tories, who are all about the economy according to our resident back-of-fag packet economists, presiding over all those years, I think it shows two main things: 1. It doesn't seem to matter who's in charge - as long as you don't do anything particularly batshit mental (see tax breaks given by Liz Truss and supported by multiple on here and in the right wing press) then it doesn't overly matter what you do, it doesn't make much difference. 2. The reason for the above, and I've said it multiple times in reference to interest rates, is that due to the truly global market we find ourselves in, economic performance is down to external factors. What we need to do is invest massively in technology, and ensure we keep our services intact. It's why being part of the EU, and keeping our trading hub away from Frankfurt is so important. One of the businesses I advise for had seen four quarters of single digit falls in sales, but over the past year has seen that building back up. Was the reason the change in strategy the board implemented? Most of the board like to think so. However, our fall in sales and subsequent upturn correlate pretty much exactly with China's economic performance...

And yet, it's the highest annual growth since the COVID bounce-backs in 2021 and 2022 (which was a net 1.6% over 3 years including 2020), and about equal to 2018 and 2019. Welcome to post-Brexit Britain GDP growth.

That's the problem when your only source of news is "X".

Wowowowowowowow

Has Keir lied?

Is it the same with Basketball, Baseball and Ice Hockey?

People who don't like NFL tend to be those that don't understand the rules. I've never met someone who understands it and doesn't like it.

Very.

Vegans? What an odd thing to say? If anything, the people I know who are into NFL are anything but vegans.

It's very defensive, but very good defence. Masterclass from the two Defensive Coordinators.

I am, and yes, he probably does...

Anyone watching? Thoughts on the game? Can't see past the Seahawks for this, and happy for Darnold after his journey through the League.
