    The Balkans

    How on earth would they manage that, they don't have enough soldiers to fight in their own war
  2. More to the point when was the last time Sunak said anything? It might be that there's some discussion going on to convince Sunak to withdraw and sending in the drunk pit bull today might just be counter productive
  3. This is only the fifth post this year in the whole of VT that mentions smart phone or smartphone. At least two of those posts were by the same member I suggest you are one of a very small percentage of people that is actually using the term
  4. I predict it will return when more hamstring injuries start happening
  5. The sports governing body (FINA?) agrees with her, they already banned transgender athletes who went through puberty as male from competing in women's swimming events
  6. Ah, explains why I didn't get it, Never seen any of those films
  7. They aren't stopping it completely, just doing it in specific rounds not every match because they feel doing it every match loses its impact. The OP says rules are changing, they are not, there never was a rule in the first place. They will still do it before first and last game of season, Boxing Day and a few weekends that are already designated kick Racism out of football weekends. The idea being that less has more impact
  8. It's the PL Players (or Captains) that decided to stop doing it I thought and the clubs then backed them
  9. Russia can't combine with anything right now. And China absolutely isn't going to do anything with Taiwan with it's totally unproven Army that hasn't been in any meaningful combat since 1979. I doubt there's a single member of the armed forces in the PRC who has combat experience. China have just been sabre rattling to judge the response. Visiting Taiwan is part of that response. It's tit for tat and it's to prove that the US hasn't taken their eye off the ball with Taiwan despite what is going on in Ukraine
  10. More annoying are the ones that cross the white line (sometimes by a considerable distance) on green to turn right and stay where they are when the lights change. No you dumb f***s it was your right of way until your flow of traffic was cleared. At most junctions they can't even see the lights now
  11. Second batch of collared doves this year. This time there’s two. One appeared Monday the second yesterday. They grow really fast. They’ll be gone in no time at all. But they make me smile
  12. Definitely one of my favourite albums of the year so far
  13. It's not even strange, buy a box of assorted cheese biscuits and there'll be some digestives in there
  14. China more likely looking in the medium term to take advantage of the inevitable eventual collapse of Russia and maybe claim back the areas it has always considered to be its own from Russia and possibly more.
  15. Is there any actual evidence of death threats though Dem? Or is she just you know trying to get some column inches because in reality no one cares who she is
  16. I'm really having a Son / Salah dilema and I change my team accordingly every day. With Liverpool having a proper stiker now, I think it may affect Salah's points, so Son really comes into the frame as there isn't much to differentiate them really and the million difference may be better spent elsewhere
  17. Send them kettles and teabags instead. F***ing idiot He can't help himself, he really is Putin's Useful Idiot No doubt Seamas told him to say it
  18. Johnson was a Mid-Term PM and did iirc get an opinion bounce for the Tories EDIT: John Major too I think
  19. No, they'll get absolutely worse for her The general public, the non-switched on politically, lets say about 50% of the population really won't know that much about her YET When she becomes PM, they won't be able to avoid knowing who she is and they'll absolutely hate her, she won't resonate with the public and her gaffes of which there will be plenty (you only have to look back a few hours for the latest one) will rapidly turn her into a figure of fun. They'll hate her and laugh AT her

    Energy Bills

    I'll wager you didn't see anywhere near the amount or large articulated Lorries. I think that is very noticeable in France French supermarkets don't really do Central Hub Distribution, produce is sourced more locally and it seems to make a hell of a difference to the roads
