  1. Well Brexit only had to be dealt with in the first place because the Tory party were haemorrhaging votes to UKIP. Leaving the EU was in no way a majority opinion before the Tory Party decided to appeal to its throbber wing (which at the time was very much a minority) who were threatening to join UKIP (one of them actually did). Be under no allusions (copyright SWP) the only reason Brexit was even a thing was an act of Tory self-preservation. Remember, even in 2010, after 3 terms of Labour and a global financial meltdown, the Tories actually need a coalition to get into power. It was their solution to offer a referendum. Its all down to the Tories, no one else
  2. How was having to deal with something that f***ing idiots caused unlucky? Its entirely their fault And they managed to make a pigs ear out of it too Luck really has nothing to do with it. F***wittery and incompetence yes, luck, definitely not
  3. Mrs Bicks: “Can you put some music on for me to clean to?” This is an unusual request in this house, I then have think of something she'll like. Ah, I know… finds record I'm thinking of in no time at all, puts in on. Mrs Bicks: ”Thanks” She then proceeds to turn on the vacuum cleaner for the first three tracks.
  4. Only when Tories are in power. Ruling party gets first dibs and always chooses last, next biggest party then goes and chooses second last
  5. That is genuinely shocking. It is incredibly easy to decide the actual date of something when you get first pick. You want the last week of conference season. And with something that also has a profound effect too. Some of the stuff they f*** up on has a degree of complexity to it in comparison but f***ing up on pick the last week of a three week window when you have first pick is something you’d expect most kids in the last year of junior school to get right
  6. I have a genuine question. Why is the Tory Party conference before the Labour one? As far back as I remember it is usually the ruling party that goes last, like some sort of unwritten convention, which I suppose could be the ruling party gets first choice. So assuming it’s the latter, why have the Tories chosen to go second? It's clearly advantageous to go last. Going last you get to present your policies AND get a chance to reply to the others and your policies stand a chance of more exposure and for longer after the conference as there are no others. Why cede this obvious advantage?
  7. The Duchess? Well I’ve signed the official secrets act
  8. You know you're gonna start him off mentioning sausages
  9. Reports of a Russian SU-35S being downed over Zaporizhzhia today. Also reportedly a friendly fire incident
  10. In all seriousness as advised buy the biggest but you might find yourself wanting a second. I already am and there's only two of us most of the time. Rarely use the oven these days but sometimes have to
  11. Also, I really wouldn't worry about yourself or your family. After making the complaint, any more incidents with the Police that cannot be justified would count as harassment, including stopping your vehicle for no good reason
  12. I got where you were coming from until the phoned your manager bit. I'd be off to the IOPC at this stage... and I'd also be getting the second officer suspended too
  13. That's bollocks too Office of the Schools Adjudicator
  14. OK you win, I only do it for a living but... ICO
  15. They can report whatever they like, "manifestly excessive" is a specific term enshrined in the GDPR / DPA2018. It is specifically designed to stop repeat and nuisance requests

  17. Ireland is still in the British Isles though.
