  1. And they are likely to push you in a river when you least expect it
  2. Fiona Bruce said something last night on QT to Rosena Allin-Khan which was quite unusual it was along the lines of… ”Very soon, in the next year or so, Labour will be in power, so what are Labour going to do…” It wasn’t expect to be in power, hope to be in power it was will be in power. Now obviously she'll get told off by the producers and it was a bit of a slip up on the old bias-o-meter but it also went unchallenged like it was some sort of universal truth. It’s a little thing but it does show how people currently think that it didn’t raise an eyebrow, from anyone Also, the terribly patronising woman from Tufton St was awful but even she didn’t try to justify the Rwanda policy, she was against it. She was also very bad at trying to explain why a Nationalised Water industry was bad. When you consider the way that QT audiences are composed by the BBC and their in built bias towards the current government (whoever that is at the time) there weren't exactly many people planning to be Tory voters in that audience and for them to be seemingly totally in favour of water nationalisation and absolutely opposed to the immigration policy also says a lot about how public opinion has genuinely swung away from where it used to be.
  3. The Russia Army can’t run the diamond mines in Africa
  4. I was fearful to look at the score, I'm pleasantly shocked We'll still f*** it up
  5. On the other hand, it might mean there's a serious fraud investigation or a Russian money investigation
  6. Remember to post back in 12 months when you get an answer
  7. It's not a marketing email. They are a mutual and will be legally compelled to send the emails to anyone who has a voting right. They maybe wrong in believing you have a voting right but there is no legal reason to have an unsubscribe option
  8. You can get paid millions for the outcome of a night on the Guiness? Where do I sign up?
  9. Not sure this ruling had anything to do with the ECHR. The court ruled that Rwanda wasn't an acceptable third country, specifically Rwanda This is just a game to be honest, obviously the appeal will go to the Supreme Court (or maybe it won't, they could refuse) and that will yet again take forever given the backlog at which time we are more or less in election campaigning time at which point they'll use it to fire up their dwindling support. It won't work. The Tories are happy enough to keep kicking this up a court until they can do it no further, it keeps their pet issue in the news and yet they haven't done anything. This game is obviously costing the tax payer absolute fortunes for defending the indefensible
  10. Howl is definitely the stripped down Accoustic(y) one Anyway, I liked that and the two before it but thought they reverted to the style of the first two too much after that and lost interest in them a bit. If anything Howl is my favourite of the first three
  11. New Russian erm.... cope cages... sorry anti-drone cages, but now you've got to turn the tank around if you want to shoot backwards
  12. Pavement - now there's band I don't get. I stuck on 23 track compilation that I must have bought ages ago and yeah, Shady Lane and lots of tracks that sound pretty much like Shady Lane They are OK, I don't hate them, I just don't get their popularity, I've seen plenty of bands third on the bill that are as good and make a similar sound One of those that are just not for me I think
  13. I've got loads, another thing on my to do list, curently I'm only doing the bandcamp ones as I spot them but intend to do the rest as soon as I find a working hard drive to download them to
  14. Makes absolutely no sense. Surovkin was the Russian general that sent a message to Prigozhin telling him to stop The Air Force was the only branch of any Russian service that actually attacked the Wagner column. They lost 13 pilots and 7 mostly very valuable rare aircraft But in the other column, it's also not the first time he’s been arrested over a mutiny (failed coup of August 1991)
