  1. Audiogalaxy was better
  2. Not very, big argument about the US motor industry the other day. Musk literally tweeted that Trump was talking bollocks Also Musk isn’t very cash rich, his wealth is in his companies
  3. Not quite, what he wrote in 1978 was The Black Stuff for the Play For Today series but it wasn’t broadcast until 1980. That was very successful so the BBC commissioned the series as a result but a lot of it was already written (between 79-80)
  4. And that’s just to get him to a flight to Rwanda taking off that no one cares about. Delusional
  5. Confirmed by FPL that is was the worst game week ever, by a clear 7 points. Average score of 12, the previous low was 19, and the next lowest average is 26
  6. If they actually were police
  7. IIRC Trump has said on record in a deposition that he has $400 million in liquid cash assets only last year. I know he owes more than that but it is a good chunk of what he owes... Unless of course he was lying. Is that perjury in US law?
  8. Well according to Ukraine its not 8 its 12 now From what I've been reading (I know very little about oil refining) they've been trying to attack very specific parts of refineries, with parts that are hard to replace. If Russia can't refine, they'll be limited to crude for exports. Also I have no way of verifying this but Russia was already short of refined product for the domestic market anyway and I think that's the aim, to degrade Russia's refining capacity to cause hinderance to the general Russian population. So not the war specifically as Russia will obviously prioritise that over domestic supply but crude exports over refined product exports will reduce the export value further of their petroleum product and lack of refined product will hurt the Russians themselves more
  9. This is the DIY thread not the lose the will to live thread
  10. That wouldn't make you more qualified though
  11. Are there any airlines that have a practical demonstration of ability before they hire someone? No idea but I seriously doubt it as all candidates will have the minimum requirements of licensing by the relevant authority. What would be the reason one pilot didn't get hired over another?
  12. He can still see the level of discontent by the people that didn't vote, spoilt their paper, poured oil in the ballot box etc and obviously where that discontent is Lots of discontent in an area, conscript more from there that'll learn 'em.
  13. Oh and what on earth is this?
  14. Nonsense, this is just your perception. You have no basis for this claim. If this is true what is your solution? It will obviously need to be a solution that doesn't interfere with free speech in a liberal democracy. I'd be really curious to see which knots you tie yourself in figuring out this conundrum Actually, you need to be tolerant and accepting of others, whether that be their views or their characteristics. Those on the extreme right are equally or even more intolerant of others, you know how fascism works I presume? What you're actually saying is that black people shouldn't be allowed to organise as black people to raise issues of race discrimination. If that didn't happen. nothing would change. Same with women's issues, gay rights etc. Ironic that your post comes across as full of right wing talking points but no actual solutions to your perceived problems. What would be your solutions that would be acceptable in a liberal democracy?
  15. Nah that’s Dem, he missed off the U
  16. Nah sorry can’t buy that. You still go, you're still part of the church, if you are only selecting the bits you agree with, why bother? I presume the church is no difference in the US to here, there’s still a collection plate each service, do you stipulate when that money gets spent? Anyway, this is for the religion thread
  17. You belong to a church that agrees with the Trump / GOP stance on Roe vs Wade
  18. Religion being used for its intended purpose.
  19. 75-80% of the people have never agreed with anything in a western liberal democracy.
  20. A reaction to dropping in the polls, ramp up the threat and the rhetoric
