It's a horrible punishment for a child who has done nothing wrong but the underlying issue is also infuriating. Schools should not be allowed to force parents to shell out extra cash they may not have to official suppliers. Supermarket uniforms are fine, it's pure snobbery.
@MuggleNet Ron could have been a Hufflepuff, Hermione could have been a Ravenclaw and Harry could have been a Slytherin. Luna could have been a Gryffindor, Cho should have been a Hufflepuff, Diggory was very Gryffindor, McClaggen could have been in Slytherin etc. No-one is just one thing.
@_Ungagged Imagine saying you are an atheist then basing your bigotry on an argument about the fallability of a God you supposedly don't believe in. 🤦♂️
@drcharlielynch Instinctively mistrust anyone who intentionally goes out to public places wearing trackies and hoodies rather than a shirt or something that actually looks decent...each to their own.
Didn't you break me
Before and before?
Didn't you break me then?
Didn't you make me
Ow'r and ow'r?
Only to break me again?
Didn't you take me
Then show me door?
Cause love was too beyond your ken?
Will you forsake me?
No more. Please no more!
For me it's not if, but is when.
First Glasgow is stopping its night bus service in the city - hard news in the context of the new LEZ and ongoing criticism of public transport. First say there are only an average of 14 passengers per route - I'm often one of them. Are you?

What then is 'capitalist society'
But feudalistic enforced piety
Upon the poor, but not the rich -
Who cancel lives with but a switch.
Organised selfishness and greed
Is what the masters hold as creed,
But when the rafters shake anew
Those left to stand be not they few.
Glasgow's late night transport is already woefully, shockingly and sickeningly inadequate. So the solution from First Bus? Make it even worse. 😡 This must not be allowed to stand.
This is what over-privatisation has brought us - dangerous streets & desperate poverty and health.
Sign our petition and join us in calling for urgent action to ensure Glasgow has a night time bus service that is fit for the city.

I've said it before but 'down with the crown' is a far better slogan than this Americanised 'not my king' nonsense.
Not my king implies that someone else is. If you are against the monarchy then you want no kings 🙄
It demeans the message and purpose 😞 Do better eh?
A majority of Scots want independence. And quite rightly so. Have the rest of you not noticed the mess the UK is in?
Being in the UK is killing Scotland. Both main UK parties are Brexiteer, right-wing, democracy denying Tories.

@_Ungagged There were two guys with blue Tory rosettes sitting on the train the other day. I kind you not. Out & proud Tories sitting on public transport. 😮
Needless to say they were getting pelters from the young lads in the seats further along. Not particularly witty pelters, but still.
