  • Yikes.

    This is a parliamentary democracy Vs your style democracy thing. To become prime minister you have to have a majority of representatives be elected to your party. If the house was blocking him and voting down things he'd basically be forced to call an election right away.

  • More accurate than gender reveal really.

  • Election year over here. Sunak wants to look like a dynamic world leader, rather than a lily-livered frightened little rich boy.

  • To become an American police officer.

    Other countries have somewhat higher requirements

    • Norway - 4500 hours
    • Finland - 4500 hours
    • India - 4000 hours
    • Germany - 4000 hours
    • Australia - 3500 hours
    • Spain - 2880 hours
    • United Kingdom - 2250 hours (plus if they want to carry a gun significant additional hours)
    • Canada - 2080 hours
    • New Zealand - 1924 hours
  • I miss the blobs.

  • As always?

    The EU made apple use USB c on iPhones.

    The EU made Microsoft make edge uninstallable.

  • No, it felt like it was written primarily as an ending.

  • I loved the show, but good. It was the perfect ending.

  • As a non American millennial I have no fucking clue what the second one is.

  • home priced have increased for sure over the past 2-3 years,

    House prices have been going up faster than wages for a lot longer than that. There was a lot of talk about how unaffordable housing was when the pandemic struck. Then, central banks globally plunged interest rates to practically zero. So money got really cheap for a while and loads of people jacked up their house prices even more.

    high interest rates, which adds hundreds to monthly mortgage payments but which is a temporary situation.

    They'll come down, yes. But I very much doubt they'll drop as low as before the pandemic. Rates had dropped in 08 after the credit crunch and a lot of central banks had never returned their base rates to their historical average. In my country the central bank had announced a plan in about 2018 to gradually raise the base rate from around 1% to I think it was 4% over the following 5 years.

  • And deep pile carpet.

  • WW2 was won with British Intelligence, American steel and Russian blood.

  • According to Crest, there are now just 3.88 officers for every 1,000 people - down from 4.42 in 2010.

    And I'll be those officers are under equipt compared to how they would have been in the past. It's no wonder they're just there to give it reference numbers so you can go to your insurance now.

    I can't believe people feel for the Tory austerity lies, then have continued to fall for their shit for a further decade.

  • Needs more avocado fixtures.

  • Winston Babyface Churchill seen moments before robbing a bank India of vital food supplies.

    FTFY

  • Victim was his wife.

    Woowa is marital rape still legal is some parts of the USA?

  • If something like this had been about I'd have had it done at 21 rather than my wife fucking up her hormones with the pill for a few years before we ended up getting the permanent snip.

  • £500 well spent. Though I'm still annoyed that my local NHS trust wouldn't fund it.
