  1. As long as it's not a poll of Daily Mail readers that's meant to be a poll of a cross-section of society, then yes that's fine.
  2. I think the question really is "Does having an agenda make a poll less valid as long as it is not doctored? The poll subject will be leftist, but that's it.
  3. We have a very large property with 9 inch non-cavity walls and 3 meter ceilings. Downstairs we dug out the floor and put in underfloor heating, but upstairs we have rads - although not a lot and quite small. For us to get proper use of an ASHP we'd need to increase the size of the radiators to ridiculous levels.
  4. Unfortunately our place, being a 250 year old farmhouse, is not suitable for them. However, we do have 16KW of solar panels and a 20kw battery which means in the Summer our bills are about £9 a month with our buy back tariff.
  5. Don't be stupid, they use Davy lamps in that part of the world.
  6. Only for the tractors, obviously 😉 Wife's car is petrol though.
  7. Diesel all gone at the local Tesco's. Unleaded still plentiful though.
  8. Anyone that comes back on those planes should be liable for taxes not paid over the past 5 years.
  9. He's talking about GM, not Starmer. Fucking hell, you piss off for a week and then fuck up as soon as you get back.
  10. Exactly my point, thanks.
  11. For some of the wealthiest countries in the World. I just don't buy it. They're just hitting out at US allies, and they have a lot of drones, that's all. I assume if they wanted to hit the countries financially, they'd be hitting oil extraction plants, docks, business centres etc and it doesn't seem to be what they're concentrating on. Also, not sure how cheap Ballistic Missiles are... “As of Sunday 1st March, the UAE has intercepted 541 drones, 165 ballistic missiles and 2 cruise missiles, demonstrating its defence capabilities” says Katy Keenan, CEO, British Chamber of Commerce Dubai.
  12. Well, I guess we'll see what happens and can revisit this at the end of the war.
  13. One of the worst performing in recent memory? Short memory there. Worst Governments in recent history: 1. Truss - Conservative 2. Johnson - Conservative 3. Cameron - Conservative 4. May - Conservative 5. Sunak - Conservative 6. Starmer - Labour 7. Brown - Labour 8. Cameron/Clegg - Conservative/Lib Dems 9. Blair - Labour
  14. I think you've just read a load of bollocks, that's all.
  15. Isn't that one of the reasons (well, modesty) that Muslim women wear it everywhere? Very hard to judge what you've posted when you can't read the article.
  16. WHY DO YOU REPLY TO HIM???? Everyone thinks he's a mad prick, apart from his alter ego Sir Ralph. You are not getting anything from replying to him.
  17. What I'm more interested in is the post-mortal pension, and virgins.
  18. Yeah, UAE, Qatar and KSA are known for not having much money.
  19. They'll be losing their main supplier of drones as well.
  20. That's my conclusion, has been for a while. Seem to be cut from the same cloth.
  21. Bit harsh to single him out, I bet Nic is banging underage virgins in solidarity with the Supreme Leaders ascension to the promised land.
  22. So I spoke to one of my friends, who was a senior VP at a large retail company. He joined in April, and has unfortunately lost his job 2 weeks ago as part of a huge re-structure. His home that was part of his package has been taken away, because as you can probably imagine labour rights are non-existent out there. Apparently there are massive issues out there currently as the number of ex-pats outweigh the number of jobs, and people are moving without properly understanding the cost of living and all the additional costs with regards accomodation. Heat in the Summer is unbearable, and where his wife and newborn are over there on maternity she was pretty much housebound for 4 months last year. With regards how Dubai is right now, he said it's just really odd. Nobody knows what to really do so they're staying inside for the time-being. Loads of noise constantly overhead, but nothing too bad as of yet. He's coming back as soon as he can, unsurprisingly.
