Following the introduction of the online safety bill, I mentioned this, and referenced/linked reports of some websites closing over fears the owners/publishers may be taken to court.
-
In fairness, I think she was moved because they were concerned for her safety. Perhaps the bigger issue is the proximity of the protest to the ground, and, not for the first time with such protests, heightened tensions/trouble. That, and the fact that they consider others to be unsafe- surely that should be grounds to restrict/ban these protests.

Far more to it than that. I've been following Jake Broe, amongst others, in his analysis. It does/did form a rail hub supplying much of the area. He describes the Pokrovsk battle as being "land for time". Russia is losing money hand over fist, together with refining capacity, men, food production etc. Ukraine has scaled up drone production remarkably, and supposedly outstrips Russian production. They are also struggling for money, but the agreements with other nations over military equipment manufacturing, exports etc will see some money coming in. Putin has ordered an even greater push in the area too apparently, so as to get "a win". It has cost incredible losses though- an average of 1000 per day now, and their spending on their military has fallen this last year or so. They're stalling for time until Russia's unsustainable conflict hits the buffers.

Until towards the end. They did well initially- taking on a decent situation and improving it. The growth of the services sector (financial especially) bit us hard when the 2008 crash happened. Traditional thinking says that the higher the level of services in an economy, the more the level development, success etc it has. Newer thinking says this might not be true. The comparative lack of manufacturing does seem to have affected us, though this is now changing somewhat, which is good news.

Russia have denied it. Make of that what you will.

Whilst their grandkids are being groomed and raped.

There was a handful of counterprotestors there. Don't know where this idea that a load of not rights turned up. There were the odd incidents, but these seem to be largely between villa supporters and Palestinian protestors. Of course that will be portrayed as far right bigots turning up for a ruck with well behaved, genuinely aggrieved protestors. Got tasty at half time too. Police have questions to answer over why these protestors were allowed so close- essentially at the turnstiles. The local pro-terror fuckwits are still out and about at this very moment.

Aye, quite simple really.

I've watched some of the early round before, but just not arsed this season.
-
Reading a winning at the moment. That would help us.
-
Then you can do something else, if it's not compulsory! I doubt any second round match will have a great pull on viewers.

Can't have a zero tolerance to carrying a bladed item. Sometimes it's necessary for work, or a hobby. The law already has scope for the authorities to assess whether something that is being carried, was being done for legitimate reasons.
-
What are you fucking papping on about now? Is this meant to suggest that GB didn't have an opening to operate in? You're fucking desperate. Perhaps have a look at the BBC's Arabic service- fully funded by the government and using extremely dodgy people (terror links). Just for a bit of balance.
-
Dead right. Loads won't be registered if they're small businesses- soul traders. I'm not registered in that sense, and haven't joined any trade associations. My decision, and nowt to do with my bank.

One of mine is going apoplectic. Trying to dig through the walls. The other two aren't happy, but lying down and comfortable. Lovely evening though; very mild, still, dry and fairly high cloud. Seems to be more fireworks this year than last.
-
Nor should it be. That includes letting in "refugees" who are likely to bring their conflict with them. Massive famine, western help, continued conflict, western military observation putting these soldiers at risk, for what? Leave them to it, and leave them there.
-
There is government action taking place at the moment, looking into practices and their pricing. Good on them, and not before time. One of the ideas is to ensure their prices are listed in the practice. Also looking into the exorbitant prices charged for some medicines. Of course they have their costs, and an online store doesn't have the same overheads, but it doesn't mean that they aren't charging over the odds. I moved vet's when ours was taken over (CVS) and the standards slipped, whilst prices went up. Now use a private, local one (3 practices in the area), and the difference is palpable. From the moment you walk in-the reception staff, to the nurses and vets themselves.

The funding is by wealthy people. They did so to fill a gap. That is why it exists. Like many start up companies, it has lost money and had to make adjustments accordingly. Like many successful comapanies, it is now moving in the right direction- that is despite many organisations refusing to advertise on the channel Channel 4 looses shit loads of money, despite bosses getting large bonuses. It has been around much longer, but it going in the opposite direction. A government owned station. Sky news looses large amounts of money. They are owned by a huge American Conglomerate. Presumably then, they also only exist because people are willing to fling money at them? The BBC only exists because people no option to pay to watch numerous other channels. You're blinkered because of visceral hatred, and an unwillingness to accept other views to your own. By your standards, BWFC should not exist.

Crikey, there were very brief highlights, with the commentator simply describing the action at that moment. The commentary being added later. He wasn't there to analyse and give opinion, simply to describe the coverage.
-
Public displays only then. Fuck 'em.
-
They reduced the purchasing window some time ago, but it is still too long. If they're not going to ban them domestically, then they should only be available for a few days prior to November 5th- maye from the 1st until the day itself. Plus a maximum amount per person. Ideally though, only public displays by authorised companies.

One hour ago! Perhaps his family didn't want his details released so early. Similarly the Scunthorpe United player. Good on the fella for being so brave.

😁 I don't think crazy legs ever hit a sweeter shot (or indeed any pass, clearance or whatever) in his career.
