The Film Thread
I don't really understand people saying No Time To Die is "slower" than the other Craig Bond movies. Did you not see Spectre? One of the slowest and dullest films I've seen. Right up there with TInker Tailor Soldier Spy in the award for "nothing **** happens" -

It’s still early days in to the season, we have only played 8 matches. Give the players some time before making these rash statements. They are still gelling as a team, just be patient, it doesn’t happen straight away -

I think the fact that teams who will finish the league at the top regular will sometimes go and pull stinkers like the one we had against Wolves, it does happen at the top league in the entire sport. Not making excuses for the players or for those in charge of them but someone has to lose a game of football if there is no draw. Smith has to start thinking about points, the points should come first and foremost. Even beyond the need to keep outscored the opponent even when we've outscored the opponent. Collectively it was a cock up and collectively it must be put right. We have enough quality at this level to not do these stinker games but somewhere along the line the stinkers always happen due to lapses in concentration. Its then how the team responds afterwards that will show the teams maturity, respond wonderfully and all of a sudden a run could be put together, respond awfully and we will be in tons of trouble. The whole team and staff now have to prepare for the next battle and the wolves match somehow has to be put behind them. The one thing I think they have to be careful about isn't repeating there weaknesses and what happen go on and make it a strength. -

The now-enacted will of (some of) the people
Okay, but that should be tipping you off that the reason deals like this happen is because they are *diplomatic gestures*, rather than because of any kind of commercial logic. A tariff is another word for a tax. They are taxes on either raw materials or finished goods. The main reason a country imposes a tariff is to protect a domestic industry from foreign competition. Again, nuclear submarines do not fit this at all. The only possible buyers and sellers are governments, so why would they tax themselves? What would that achieve, that could not be more sensibly achieved by adjusting the price of the submarine in the first place?* Similarly, there is no domestic nuclear submarine manufacturing industry to protect in Australia; if there was then they wouldn't need to order them from other countries. *This is not to say that there couldn't be tariffs involved in the process at any stage; in making the submarine, we might use some raw material or other imported from somewhere with a tariff on it or whatever. But there are no nuclear submarine tariffs. -

Not if Italy puts a tarriff on Champagne and their sales go down. Because the Tarrifs go to the Government not to the champagne producers. -

If the French put a tariff on the import of Prosecco, does it not benefit the Champagne industry? -

No I didn't say we sold Subs to the Aussies because of a trade deal. I said after the trade deal the Aussies moved the business to us. If it is for the benefit of companies why do countrys apply tarrifs. You cannot put a tax or tariff on a company and then say it is for yor benefit -
