@MelikAbdul_ Re algae; is it too easy a solution just to get park rangers in the pool regularly with those hook things to drag the algae out? I assume it must be a more complicated problem than that.
@TheLastRefuge2 We are entering a RW populist phase not just in UK but throughout Europe. However, I don't think UK will go full populist(i.e. a populist govt with a majority in Parliament) until things get very bad indeed. We are not a that stage...yet. Almost but not yet.
@DataRepublican@grahamformaine The most establishment Dems in the entire US, Virginia, voted around 99.9% for a Dem politician who wants Republicans and their children dead. Nothing surprises me with that Party anymore. Certainly not someone like Planter.
@yeggir1@redrumlisa Yeah, the word 'soccer' was coined in England and used to describe Assoc[er]iation Football. We in UK were happy to call it soccer for a century. Nowadays the word get people annoyed for some weird reason.
@PositivFuturist No matter that the incident was in NI what the original poster seems to be missing is that there is a type of pan nationalism forming in Europe. It would be just as shocking to us in UK if it had happened in Fr or Ger. What happens across Europe is coming out way.
@knolloz@Grand_Ole_Evan Calling it merely 'codification' makes it sound less significant than it was.
It's not Rugby, Aussie Rules or the US variety of football that became the world game. It was Assoc. Football. If not for 'codification' we may now all be playing rugby football instead of soccer.
@Ramma_____ Definitely Ray Wilkins & Trevor Steven.
I'd add probably Butcher, Peter Reid, Hatley(tall & reasonably quick), Anderson.
The others I know less about.
@GuyReta62390@Mr_Husky1 Fair enough, the guy obviously cares enough for the pay cheques. His terms are not for others to decide though. His terms are what he decides. And he decided to retire from the business but to keep his legal share of the future loot.
@GuyReta62390@Mr_Husky1 Yeah, nothing says FU like foregoing your share of royalties and therefore handing a far bigger share of royalties to the other band members.
@peterrhague@Exogynous It was unfortunately Churchill's own Home Sec, Maxwell-Fyfe, who cracked down on homosexuality. Far more were prosecuted in the 1950's than in the 1930's or 40's.
@VeteransFdn It was Churchill's own Home Secretary, Maxwell-Fyfe, I'm afraid who did Turing in.
His talents went largely unrecognised because Enigma was still a state secret for quite a few decades after the war.
@peterrhague I partly agree but to be honest all these issues bleed(pardon the pun)into each other. I don't think you can fully separate one from the other, at least not now.
