The amount of landys I’ve seen off the road in snowy/icy conditions is hilarious.
I’d guess it’s a combination of them not being as good as their reputation and the false sense of security that they give the drivers.

It’s my opinion that a huge proportion of people that identify with Reform will get cold feet in the ballot box and decide to stick with what they know.
That’s not a very nice thing to say about Jacob.
Do you remember when their protest outside the HQ of BP made the news? Me neither, but I’m sure the high rollers on their 6, 7, 8 figure salaries felt terribly inconvenienced!
I don’t have to agree with their methods or their ideology to recognise their right to protest. We’re talking about dyed cornstarch here, it’s not like they blew the thing up.
Only $7.2M? Can we start a go fund me? Ex PM’s shouldn’t be living in absolute poverty.
I’m not taking the bait. There’s obviously many worse countries than the UK to be trans in and like I’ve already said, the UK isn’t perfect but it wouldn’t be as diverse as it is without being as accepting as it is.
You can reply to this if you want, but don’t expect me to reply in turn, this is my final statement on the matter.
You’ll find that whilst far from perfect, that the UK is one of the most accepting and diverse populations on earth.
Who made you ambassador for the UK? I’m in the UK and I don’t hate them.
The whole point of protest is to cause disruption, you’re not meant to like it, that’s the point!
Reform stealing the right wing voters might not push the Tories to the centre, it could push them further to the right to try to win them back.
It worked for UKIP when the Tories promised a referendum to win their voters.
It’s my opinion that a HUGE proportion of people identifying with Reform will get cold feet in the voting booth and vote Tory.
I don’t expect labour to be full blown left, just actually left rather than ever so slightly to the left of the Tories.
Talk about stating the obvious, , ,
In fptp, only tactical votes matter.
I’d love to be able to vote with my heart, but getting the Tories out is far more important.
A voting system suitable for a multi party democracy rather than fptp.
You need to take out a mortgage to eat at Pret, Greg’s is much more affordable.

Well it felt like 40! lol
Nah I was thinking of the same week that it was 40 degrees in London I think and it was bad enough in Scotland.
Two summers ago it reached 40°C in fucking Scotland.
I unironically bought some kaftans for my wardrobe because I was fucking dying in jeans and t-shirt.
God loved him so much he gave him a fast pass to heaven.
We’re talking about a religion where the son of God walked on water and fed five thousand people with five fish and two loaves of bread.
I think it’s easier to buy in to the fantasy when there are several hundreds of years between you and the so-called miracle though.
You have to remember that religious people don’t use the scientific method and that they see faith as a very virtuous characteristic.
Lemmy is obviously very triggered by what you’re saying, presumably because speaking against lockdowns and furlough is very controversial. But you are largely correct.
COVID cost the UK in the ball park of £360 billion, some estimates go as high as £410 billion, most of that was printed money. You can’t inject that much in to the economy all at a time where there is comparatively very little productivity and then not expect significantly higher levels of inflation, it’s economics 101.
About half the sum in the headline, maybe a little more, can be directly attributed to how we dealt with COVID.
