He has to avoid a COVID fine first.

How pathetic that the BBC feel compelled to apologise.

Re (2): In my opinion Brexit is making things worse and exacerbating current issues. You mentioned the "current crisis" without indicating what factors we are currently experiencing constitute that "crisis". The advantage for the Government is that COVID and the war in Ukraine are proving very effective at concealing the underlying consequences of Brexit. Where are the tangible Brexit benefits ?

"Roses are red, Your passport is blue. Go stand over there, In the non-EU queue" ( Blatantly nicked from another site ).

1) "Remainers" are not a homogenous group of lesser beings to be ridiculed and derided. 2) The current crisis is a result of war, covid, AND Brexit.

A link to the Government's 'consultaion document' on Imperail measures; a couple of leading and biased questions that hardly warrants being called a 'consultation'. Is this truly what Brexit means to people ? https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/choice-on-units-of-measurement-markings-and-sales

Yet again, so typical of you.

Not sure where that was, but it sure isn't typical of my experience over 33 years.

Like I said, sad, pathetic, and misinformed. However, let us consider the Public Sector workers; the Military, the Police, the NHS workers, teachers, children's social workers, and many more areas of over-worked and under-staffed essential services, where budgets are constantly being cut, and people hold perceptions of them like yours.

I didn't know our finances were that bad.....

A sad, pathetic, and misinformed trope. So typical of you.

Do you use both hands ?

Which will it be: Bhangra and Balti, or tripe and flat caps ? ( Edit - or as my wife has just suggested, tripe Balti ).

A stagnant Government structure, controlled by vested interests. It's a wonder anything gets done.

It is an AMENDMENT, drawn up in the aftermath of the Revolutionary War, and is not inviolate. It is as if Magna Carta was still in operation verabtim.

The issue is how to address a society where 200 mass shootings have taken place this year, with 200 dead and over 800 wounded. Most of those did not involve 'long' guns or assault rifles. It is the blind faith in the archaic and no longer relevant 2nd Amendment that is a direct cause of this carnage.

Biden says the US will not send Ukraine rockets that can reach Russia. I suppose it depends on how close to the border you are standing when you fire them.

Surely the US is "democratic", just like the UK ? The system for the allocation of Senators, 2 for each State, was a compromise system introduced to maintain the political power of the rich, or as James Madison wrote, it is "constituted as to protect the minority of the opulent against the majority".
