    I think Ollie is a confidence player. It's just unfortunate his confidence only has two settings- 'zero', or 'very little'.
  2. Hobsons Choice
    Elon definitely displays an inability to judge the room. It's what makes him innovative and dangerous. Is Putin really going to testfire a nuke? That's provocative, no?

    Oi, I'm a Steve. I get s**t done!
  4. Hobsons Choice
    I'm done now. End it.
  5. Hobsons Choice
    Nah, with luck, burning man.
  6. Hobsons Choice
    Isn't that essentially insider trading?

    I chose birmingham city as a team in Fifa 22 once. It took me ages to tell whether I was playing Fifa or Fallout 4.
  8. Hobsons Choice
    How would you tell if it had happened?

    Let's hope they are the first to lose their house. Get used to the resigned sad face, guys!

    Under the circumstances, I'll stomach it. Look at me stomaching it. This country is on the verge of self imposed economic implosion.
  11. Hobsons Choice
    Then let's do that. Besides, there has not as yet been a VONC for Truss, just Boris. Does that help? I'm clutching at straws here.
  12. Hobsons Choice
    Didn't they change the rules to get rid of Boris?

    Vote of no confidence. Tory MPs please please do it now. All of you. Look at yourselves and do it NOW.
  14. Hobsons Choice
    F**k me those interviews. Local radio journalists, who are (with respect) not newsnight absolutely tearing a sitting Prime Minister to pieces. I have never ever heard anything like it.

    Good British coffee, grown on the mountains of......oh wait it's foreign muck!
  16. Hobsons Choice
    Where will I go to sit in silent despair while lamenting the bad choices I made now? That's basically what Wetherspoons is for.
  17. Hobsons Choice
    Near?

    I don't want forced voting. I want people who care about politics/state of the country to vote. Most people either don't care or are complete idiots. You really really don't want those guys forced to vote. Isn't it mandatory in Oz, and they elected a climate change denier despite experiencing unprecedented flooding?
  19. Hobsons Choice
    Depends what the objective was. If the objective is to make rich people richer, it was remarkably effective.
  20. Hobsons Choice
    I'm not sure it's a very good threat if no one can figure out who did it.
  21. Hobsons Choice
    But there is no logical reason for anyone to have done it.
  22. Hobsons Choice
    Maybe this is the answer. How does greater reliance on pipelines through countries such as Turkey affect geopolitics? As any of the countries through which those pipelines run could potentially cut supply, does it give them greater leverage when dealing with the EU, now they are relatively more important?
  23. Hobsons Choice
    Was there enough time between blasts for it to be a single actor? If not, it's co-ordinated, which would suggest a larger organisation.
  24. Hobsons Choice
    True, but without a pipeline there would be literally nothing they could do to reestablish a supply with Russia, even if there was citizen protest. You are right, though, it would weaken the EU right when the States would want it to be strong, so long story short, I have absolutely no clue. Rogue Russian hardliners? God knows.
  25. Hobsons Choice
    Could this be an internal power thing between Putin and the oligarchs running the gas companies? I just don’t see how anyone wins from this. Surely if Putin wanted to turn off supply, he could just turn the tap off, without blowing the pipes up. Unless the US want to guard against anyone in Europe getting second thoughts in opposing the war when things get tough in the winter? All just complete speculation as it doesn't seem superficially to make any sense at all.
