A few diversity and woke initiatives and edi officers could have saved 52m for our local council... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-68433863.amp

If we can beat Liverpool, forest can beat man utd. If we go through, it could easily be forest away. -
Liverpool 3-0 Saints - Match Thread
pingpong replied to Stripey McStripe Shirt's topic in The Saints
Should be an easy win against klopps kids, they will certainly be underdogs, and surely couldn't get two surprise wins in a row, if we don't win we will be bottlejobs. -
I think he was subbed on, not off, after rabiot got injured in the first half.

Chelsea current players on the pitch have an average age of 22.9, but that doesn't fit the narrative...
-
Think we've got a good chance against these "young Liverpool pups who are defying the odds" right now by even being on the same pitch as chelsea, who themselves will be devastated if they miss this easy chance to win a cup. Plucky plucky Liverpool... average age of 24 you know.

So, now that islamists are in charge(source; braverman), what changes do we expect to see? Im guessing, similar to when the taliban took control in Afghanistan, that one of the first things will be the restriction of education for girls and women. Do we know if there is a bill coming yet on that? How quickly can we expect it, because my daughter is still going to school at the moment and I want to know if I should take her out now? Also, now that the islamists are in charge, shouldn't we be changing the prime minister? And what is the impact of this on the monarchy? (Or on parliamentary procedure?) Also, why is this not bigger news? Usually when a new group takes charge of the government it is front page news, I can't even find it on the BBC homepage. Is this the start of mass censorship?

He wasn't making himself bigger or taking up an unnatural position, his arms were down. Never a pen in a million games, under the current rules.

We already know that 52% of the population falls under that category, more than enough to engineer another 4 yrs.

I'd expect 13 points for us from those, maybe 11 if things goes badly, can't imagine losing to any of those. For Leeds, I'd predict 7 or 9 it's. Which leaves us looking pretty tidy if all goes as you'd expect.

There would have been no complaints on the first goal if he had not even dived for it. If he had been a bit slower, or stood flatfooted, people would have just accepted he had no chance, he was blindsided by the defender in front and saw it late. Also a good finish. If the positions were reversed, and it was brooks scoring that, everyone would just be saying it was a quality finish, not a single person would blame the keeper.

Excruciatingly, it seems they've all been instructed not to use pronouns for brianna and use her name only, and it's leading to some very odd sentences and slip ups 🤔
-
Turns out it was starmers fault. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-68237826 And he's stopped using Brianna's pronouns now, preferring to just make nonsensical sentences instead. Hard to know which depths they will go to next, the dearth of quality in the conservative party right now is astonishing.
-
If we're going to take this to its natural conclusion, we have to question why sunak used she/her pronouns for Brianna Ghey. If he is going to poke fun at those who acknowledge transwomen exist, he should also have referred to Brianna using he/him pronouns. Or does he also 'not know what a woman is'?

Times like this I miss ceefax.

The woke left hold all the power in this country. These days, if you say you're english you get arrested and thrown in jail, yet this guy gets a 4 star hotel.

I wonder of any of the people who moan about a hundred genders etc have actually ever looked up a list? The daily mail etc only get to their mocking numbers by being nitpicky. For example, here are a few, which count as 10 genders according to the antiwoke, but are basically just different nuances of the same thing: Trans-man Transgender man Transgender male Assigned female at birth (afab) Female to male (f2m) Masculine presenting Trans masculine Transsexual man Transsexual male Transgender person So there may be many descriptions, but they all basically fall into the following 4 categories: male, female, transgender, gender non-conforming and those who worry about the alphabet mafia, most of the population just uses lgbt+ nowadays. Live and let live...

Bit harsh, you can be a saints fan and like different types of player. He was undoubtably a good player, but his claim to fame is winning southampton player of the year three times. We've had better players: Ron davies, Alan ball, Kevin keegan, Shilton, Terry paine, shearer, Wallace, and more recently van dijk, mane, bale. And if you look beyond saints, he wasnt as good as eg Hoddle, bergkamp or Cantona, who had similar ball skills, but also fitness and effort, and winning mentality. He's no messi, mbappe or Ronaldo is he? His main appeal is that he never had the ambition to leave us, and so got to be a big fish for a while. I was there when he scored in his last game vs arsenal, and loved it, but I also loved when benali scored vs Leicester, for similar reasons. If we could have any player back at peak form, I'd rather have shearer in our team than le tiss...

The problem with inviting people like him to promote a business is that the business can pick up a reputation and you can limit your customer base. I think more people see him as a cretin than a hero nowadays. I was around when he played and he was a lazy player, it has to be said. There's a reason he never reached top level, and it wasn't some great Venables conspiracy.

How is withdrawing eu funding "sabotage"? Surely they mean to help them "reclaim their sovereignty as an independent thinking nation"? And something about eu bureaucrats?

Breixt is turning out exactly as anticipated, and so I'm surprised everytime anyone is surprised. It was always clear to all sides about the consequences of the vote, and yet some still think we should have stayed, but its delivering exactly as promised. 1. We knew trade deals would be worse when negotiating as a single country than when dealing as a 27 country block. That's just an accepted consequence for 52% of the 2016 uk population. 2. We knew it would take a long time for the economy to recover, in the order of decades, not single digit years. We're still very early on. That guy from the beano who was in cabinet at the time said it would be 50 years. 3. We knew we would need to replace immigration from the EU with that from further afield, leading to an increase in racial diversity etc. And more complex challenges with integration. We knew all this very clearly before the vote. So we all knew brexit was self harm when it comes to economy and immigration. That's not why we, as a country, voted for brexit. We voted for brexit so that something something something, sovereignty something something. And we have that now.

I think there is just more awareness now. The teams probably had similar numbers of autistic and adhd in the past, they just weren't labelled or treated. I wish I'd been diagnosed sooner, I don't think it would have changed me personally, but it would have helped others understand more.

It's called black ice because although it is not actually black, it is a thin transparent layer and so appears black because of the road surface underneath. If we drove on pink roads, we'd be calling it pink ice.

I'm secretly vegan, because animal welfare, and health. But being secret, I do have to eat meat sometimes to avoid people finding out. Oh, and I do eat a lot of cheese, can't give that up. And milk is important for bone strength. And I do like a nice yoghurt. Bit apart from those things, I'm 100% with the vegan philosophy and diet.
