Pretty sure AP is funded by newspapers
If the police lose, you really lose
It’s not at all weird and very easy to explain. The BBC positions itself as an impartial reporter. Anything that appears to be a judgement call by someone else is (quite rightly) put into quotes.
In this case, I would have simply left out the words “innocent victim “ myself, as it’s a bit odd - but that is the rationale.
If your organisation is big enough to have a press office of more than 4 or 5 people, you will usually have an on-call rota.
Sentencing July 11 - delayed because the original date would clash with a court appearance in Florida
Certainly, if you on an ‘agile’ tariff in the UK it can be a lot cheaper. There were times a few month ago when it was particularly windy - they were paying me to use electricity/charge my solar batteries from the grid.
For me the headline was drowned out by the sound of Beavis and Butthead laughter
Plans to close the only school of no religious character in its area and replace it with a Church of England school have been scrapped.

Not bad. Did the Ride London 60 on Sunday, pondering whether I should try the 100 next year. It went ok
However, the upside is that there are no bots, dark patterns, or manipulated feeds.

To be honest, it feels much more likely to see posts on the Fediverse with many upvotes, few or no comments
It can work where there is real competition. For natural monopolies, not so much.
Usually it happens because the state wants to sell off family silver to make some short term cash :(
