This is nonsense. The BBC have more “youth” content than any major national broadcaster in the world I imagine. You won’t find it on BBC 1 but it’s definitely there
Too slow to move with the times? iPlayer was pretty revolutionary when it was introduced the other services had to catch up with that and most still haven’t
I also don’t think there’s a comparable single channel competitor to BBC sounds, no one has the level of content to even attempt it.
They can't. They would be prevented by the Montreaux Convention of 1936 that closes the Bosporus to Warships in times of conflict. The only ships warships allowed through are those that have a home fleet in the Black Sea., in this instance that is only Russian ships based in Sevastopol but as the entire Black Sea Fleet is in the Black Sea, effectively thats no ships in or out
We get the national minimum holidays plus bank holidays on top (so its quite generous) but it's in the contract as X number of days including bank holidays (I fo. So if I work next Thursday, I just don't take one off my total holidays
But an extra BH means I lose a days holiday that I can choose because when the contracts were written, they weren't written with extra bank holidays to celebrate the worlds most famous matriarch of a dysfunctional family still being alive in mind.
The company would argue that we're already well over the National Minimum number of holidays so they shouldn't have to account for it (and they'd have a point)
For me it's more the principal of not losing a holiday of my choice for Madge because I still have about 6 COVID holidays carried over into this year plus this years allowance and in the new year I'll be probably down to three day weeks again in order to use my holidays up
Oh yes, I am allowed to work next Thursday
Work gave me the option, jumped at the chance to be in work as did all lads in the two other departments on our floor
F*** you Madge, that's a day you haven't stolen out of my annual leave!
Stawberries in a fry-up. Just no, no, no. This is end of the road that starts with bean separation. If bloody hipsters hadn't started this ramekin nonsense nobody would ever have had such sick thoughts as strawberries on a fry up.
And don’t get me started on those awful sausages, perfectly straight and evenly cooked all over. Just wrong,
I think cutting myself off from humanity for the day beckons on Thursday. No TV, No Radio and just a book and some music to accompany it otherwise I may not be responsible for my actions
The wording of questions is always poor
"Can the PM confirm...?"
Single word answer. No. He could be saying no I can't confirm, not that the something did / didn't / etc happen.
And they do it all the time
"Did the PM attend..." is far far better. Ask the question you want an answer to directly you massive numpties
