Putting the £ sign after the value is in itself mildly infuriating.

Chinese police were allowed into Australia to speak with a woman. They breached protocol and escorted her back to China ( www.abc.net.au )

Chinese police hunting international corruption targets were allowed into Australia by the federal police and subsequently escorted a woman back to China for trial, in a major breach of Chinese-Australian police protocols....

I was thinking the same thing. I'm pretty sure you need to sign the documentation after double checking what the registrar has put down. We have up to 6 weeks too to register the birth if you haven't had chance to decide on a name yet.

blackn1ght ,

Your reply to them makes no sense though. It's like you're replying to someone else.

blackn1ght ,

What are the chances that this goes nowhere.

I think you've got some Russian propaganda dribbling off your chin.

I don't think they are, they're more akin to forums.

In my mind, social media is where you follow people and people broadcast their lives. That's the social aspect of it.

With Reddit and Lemmy we follow communities on topics we're interested in.

I do get the arguments for it to be social media but that just makes the category way too broad, as you could argue any site with a comment section is social media.

How is this a controversial take? If you need a wall to keep people in or attempting to emigrate makes you a "defector", or you've built up a huge surveillance network where your neighbours or even partners can report you for bullshit "crimes" , you're an authoritarian state.

It's a public holiday in Guernsey, I only found out today.

Zak's probably already brought in a tonne of sponsors to cover them.

This is essentially it. The surge in demand probably came from company cars and those who can afford to buy expensive cars, but now that demand has been met then sales have dropped off. We're not yet in the market to replace our car but I do keep an eye on things, and every time I look at a new EV, they're like 30 or 40k over what I'd be willing to pay.

I imagine it's an issue of economies of scale, they're more expensive because they're producing less than ICE vehicles; the only way to get them cheaper would be for some heavy government subsidies.

blackn1ght ,

Looking at vehicles on the road, yes. To be fair I do see more EV's now more than ever too.

Those aren't compliant. The reject all needs to be as prominent as the accept all option without any additional clicks. So many sites get it wrong it's insane!

Zero. They awarded the contract to Lord Fuck-the-poor III who then pocketed the £250million.

How many dicks per hour does OPs mum take?

What's your frame of reference when using imperial?

blackn1ght ,

It's the police, they'll just shoot it out of the way.

The US is sliding towards fascism

Who are you voting for then that will help keep Trump out of office?

I couldn't imagine losing any of my kids, absolutely devastating.

But something I'd never do is put my kids in such danger, he had the choice not to put his family on a raft to cross the channel.

blackn1ght ,

What sort of places do this?

blackn1ght ,

But it's in an ADHD meme community, isn't that the point of this community?

blackn1ght ,

I've heard people doing this and then getting black listed from the entire banking system. Can't open bank accounts, access any credit, and the banks don't have to tell you why you're blacklisted. It's supposed to be very very difficult to undo.

blackn1ght ,

For some reason they look like characters from Thunderbirds.

blackn1ght ,

Isn't network rail already a state owned company? This policy is talking about replacing the private operators.

blackn1ght ,

Well at least they'll be well prepared for summer.

The UK currently spends 2.32% of GDP on defence.

Had to scroll quite far down the article to find out what the current % is.

blackn1ght ,

Every single page of the Daily Fail is a facepalm moment. Utter shite.

blackn1ght OP ,

I guess I'll kick things off:

Monday (today)

Chicken and chorizo jambalaya - except I used Quorn pieces, vegan chorizo and veg stock as my son is veggie

Tuesday

Sesame glazed Quorn balls with chilli noodles

Wednesday

Sweet & sour chicken - again with Quorn pieces instead!

Thursday

Chicken burgers with a home made sauce made up of mayo, sriracha, ketchup and lemon juice, with sweet potato fries. My son will have southern fried Quorn burgers instead.

Starting to realise this almost sounds like an ad but I promise it's not! My son hasn't been veggie long so meal planning has become so much more difficult!

blackn1ght OP ,

It's the first time I've had it and it was ok, better than I expected. The only thing is that it doesn't release those delicious oils that proper chorizo gives out. But yeah, chorizo is really unhealthy but so tasty. Any time a recipe asks for 75g,I just chuck the entire lot in!

blackn1ght OP ,

That sounds proper tasty!

blackn1ght OP ,

That's banging set of meals! Got any links to recipes?

blackn1ght ,

I don't even "hear" lyrics in songs! Is it typical for albums to have songs that tell an overall story?

blackn1ght , (edited )

I've heard that anyone that has played this are called tossers.

blackn1ght OP ,

....no shit. The moment I heard of this concept years ago it sounded like a terrible idea.

blackn1ght ,

Why on earth would they refuse to do it? It's one of the best things to do!

blackn1ght ,

We used to use re-usable cloth wipes for a while with our first. They were OK but honestly wet wipes were so much more convenient, in that they seemed to do a better job of cleaning and also you don't have to faff about storing them and washing them etc.

blackn1ght ,

This might be better in United Kingdom or even a political memes community, personally I'd try and keep this community strictly politics free.

blackn1ght OP ,

My policy is to always stay off social media and the news etc until I've seen the race.

blackn1ght ,

Definitely a gov.uk site!

blackn1ght ,

I'm surprised robocall, I'd have thought you'd love an automated call.
