Nothing so big - in fact it was (outside the impact on one person) not that big an event: pressgazette.co.uk/news/a-tale-...
A search on Petrolprices.com for stations in Buxton does not find any with a price that high for unleaded. Which makes this even odder.
Reform UK really are so lucky.
For a party of eight MPs they have the UK’s biggest news broadcaster on retainer.
Here we see their political editor doing the job of a local newspaper reporter.
For Farage.
EIGHT MPs.
(I already did, a while ago.)
For good writing; sign up!
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen someone so far out of their comfort zone. Probably feels brave. Isn’t.
“I’m setting up a hot yoga studio. What could possibly go…”
‘Never ask that question!’
I recently changed iPhones and the ‘auto transfer’ of eSIM, and then the ‘click for replacement esim’ options were the spur to finally change provider. Easy, but it probably isn’t intended to be the best option.
Great effort, especially to keep at it!
Hey Manchester, have you seen the tiny proportion of office users pay for Copilot? There’s a really big clue there.
The two parter of cool people who did cool stuff on the luddites is so relevant here. The luddites didnt resist tech bc they didnt get it. They resisted tech that made inferior products and took away their means to live and eat. Very relatable.
I am strange enough to have got this one in two. But starting with ‘youth’ was a temporary peccadillo
6 music in the evening! Though that’s just the music and I’m enjoying it - probably not so much in ad form
The only thing preventing the right joining “people want to come to all these countries” and “these same countries have falling birth rates” in a very simple fashion is stupidity. Or racism.
Yep, and this assumes classical economics describes behaviour always, and further assumes people just have to shrug and give up. Already plenty of notables - Kitson in comedy, for instance - charge what they think right and that’s it.
you know how i know im a 44yo dad? how much i laughed at this shit
And have you noticed a big uptick in “benefits” stories at the moment?
Probably completely unrelated(🤔) to the fact we’ve had the longest run with no small boat crossings for 2 years, and the latest immigration stats are down at pre-pandemic levels…
They’ve gotta find a scapegoat somewhere🙄

Fun fact: For the movie Alien, they actually used a man in a practical suit because the studio was unable to afford a real Xenomorph.
tfw your collective national dream is becoming a slum landlord and selling courses on passive income but buying a tracker fund is gambling
Your recommendation meant I chose this over (something I’ve forgotten) when I went a few weeks ago. No regrets!
I'll also send one of these and a print entirely for free to one person who reposts this.
I know people love this book and I will not let it be lost.
I will not let my ex-publishers, who ran off with £20,000+ of my combined earnings from it and six other books, win.
Many thanks for any shares.
Tom Cox counts as quirky, I think - 1983 not quite his most recent, but fits.
I do - but wasn’t assuming any recent visits. As someone who’d like to escape full time I like to assume people leave and don’t look back.
Based on my anecdote only, but I’m in the habit of looking up - cracked tile, broken camera, coving falling off… All a bit unloved.
Come to the UK! We don’t do that - we just let ours decay and look a bit depressed.

I can’t be bothered with parkrun this weekend.
This. This. For goodness sake, this. Presenting search results in banal text is not ‘amazing technology’, it’s you losing the capacity to read, understand, process and act, based on technology that still, three years in, has no real reason to exist.
Misinterpreted signs are our jam! 😂🤣
If I’m going to the effort of following a recipe, though, I want enough for two so I can have it again. So although they exemplify how not to do a link, I wonder if demand is v low.
