  1. I got one - but I think the title should be "Jehovah's Witnesses go one step Beyond"
  2. I thought you meant Gove - who seemed a little off in his latest interview .. or planning a new career in entertainment. https://news.sky.com/story/michael-gove-criticised-for-using-silly-voices-during-broadcast-interview-as-he-seemingly-attempts-scouse-and-american-accents-12610588
  3. Learn a new language on an app ?
  4. So both Starmer and Raynar will resign if fined. Boris says what fine - he don't see no fine.
  5. I hope someone does come along - it would mean changes to the software though. I find the newer bulletin boards a bit difficult to read. I like this old fashioned feel - but that's me being old fashioned and luddite.
  6. The question I guess is will he resign because he's under police investigation and then put his name forward to be chosen again.

  8. I don't think there really is much more - it is basically what it is - Tories desperate for a truce if you believe tory whatsapp yesterday but don't think that's happening until Sue Gray reports.
  9. I thought the question we wanted the answer too was the difference in price if you buy via deliveroo, the restaurants own app or in person. Got to say as GenX I use email, hate teams and get my food in person LOL

Don't say that - 6 years on and the divisions aren't healing.
  11. Congrats - I votes in Rye Lane ward.
  12. Signs of a Labour revival in Scotland .. they actually won a council. West Dunbartonshire
  13. The way its going next election will be Tobias Ellwood versus Chris Bryant for PM.
  14. Rumours of a re-shuffle (goodbye Sunak) if results aren't good for the tories - but don't think Boris will go yet. Sue Gray might force his hand at some stage.

That was implied - and it was the people supervising the ballot - but if you persisted they allowed you. I saw someone complain a bit that took up more time than voting cards saved :)

  17. We were all asked for our voting cards yesterday - It was muttered that it was just to make it faster to vote but there was a feeling you needed them. Should have posted this yesterday. Well done London Labour.

  20. Isn't that the Mayors department - or the old GLC

After 911 - if you lived through it as its 21 years ago now - it means one thing. It's funny to think that most of the people I see out in the pub didn't live through it or were too young to remember.

  23. Companies are sending around test emails and messages with attachments and semi plausible reasons to click on them. about 1 in 100 clicked in our test - and had to enrol for extra training LOL.
  24. The Russian spokeswoman just said they know exactly what "Heappey" said and are preparing retaliation - almost as if he was a really important world statesman.
  25. It's amazing how quickly people just accept an ongoing cold war and the constant threat of obliteration.
