It would have just been squandered elsewhere.

But can they actually?

Part of me wants to despair at this. I feel like our government is just totally inept and everything is just bad news. There was even a report in the Times this week that Russian hakers are going to take the NHS down - and given the Horizon scandal where its proven we’ve repeatedly gone with the lowest bidder, it wouldn’t surprise me.

However, I like to think there is someone in charge of all this who properly has their shit together and is smirking at this thinking ‘come and have a go if you think your hard enough’

I once did some training at a highly sensitive UK site (mandatory for the clearance I needed) and during the course we were told in no uncertain terms China was relentless in their spying and attack attempts. This was around 15 years ago.

Yeah was my first thought too! Was worried it was going to have its last bark…

Because how many trans people are there compared with straight people?

And society does, very much judge outsider demographics on the worst actions of individuals.

I use cash pretty much everyday. I purposely do so over contactless. Cash is freedom. Cash is anonymous. Cash is king. Don’t give up on it or you’ll be sorry when it’s gone.

On topic, I love the new coins.

Great news overall. Not surprised support for Trans and their rights has dropped. A noisy minority have alienated, abused and eroded the good faith of the majority.

Lol. Correct. Mike others have said I might occasionally go there looking for information, and I miss a few subs but yeah, scrolling NSFW is so much more satisfying there than it is here - 1. Loads of autoplaying gifs / videos and 2. Seemly not so much non conventional porn there as here. Too many cocks, trans, fatties, furries and hentai here!

If its head gasket I would expect the loss to be consistent. If you open the rocker cover cap / oil filling point and it looks like there is Mayo in there, then it could be a sign the head gasket is failing.

I’m afraid that your partner has a coolant addiction and you need to get them checked into rehab.

On a serious note, perhaps sitting in traffic is causing the temp to increase and causing a leak. This would make me think perhaps the radiator fan isn’t working properly?

It’s not needing to go for haircuts where the real money savings are.

It may not mean much but I am switching supplier away from them tomorrow. This is the company that was forcing their way into the homes of people on their arses and installing pre paid meters that cost much more per kwh, not to mention just how sickening this is - “heating or eating” should never have been a thing. Cunts.

I saw his Obit notification on my Times app earlier. Shame. RIP George.
