@currys It depends on the weather. Sometimes I just want piping hot traditional pepperoni after a cold day outside
But on a warm summers day, with sport on, and a refreshing drink, i'm more towards the bbq flavours. A bbq sauce underneath the toppings always helps with this 🙏
KFC, Nando's, Burger King and others ditch chicken welfare pledge.
It is about profits.
They prefer "franken-chickens" which mature quicker but have higher rates of premature death and muscle disease.
Customers not told anything about chicken welfare.

Hi @CroftyF1
Listening to the Bahrain testing, you discussed how to hide from the car in front, when the car behind is boosting
Apparently some mirrors can hide or fail to reflect some colours, if the car mirrors can be made to do this?
Leaving the ECHR will not allow you to deport all Asylum Seekers, you can't deport a person without the other country accepting them.
But it will allow the State Pension, Minimum Wage, Paid Holiday, Max Working Hours, Maternity Leave and much more to be cancelled.
UK and US sink to new lows in global index of corruption.
The Index is flawed but tells a story. Political parties, legislators available for hire, crony contracts, VIP lanes.
UK more corrupt than Estonia, Hong Kong, Uruguay, Ireland.
No relief in sight

Ah the Ministry of Truth has spoken, note the change language gone is the "private sector investment" now just a plane old "£104 billion will be invested".
Why the change, because not a single bloody penny of any of it is coming from water company shareholders it's all coming directly out of bill payers pockets.
Oh and by the way £22 BILLION of that instantly evaporates in interest payments, commissions and other financial changes.
Other getting rich leaching of the backs of customers' misery.
You'll want to be sitting down for this bit.
Water companies are currently £82.7 billion in debt, have paid themselves £85 billion in dividends, leak over a trillion of litres of water per year, dump sewage for almost 4 million hours per year, have been convicted of over 1,200 criminal acts since 1989 and an average of 35% of your bill goes on nothing but paying more interest and yet more dividends.
And not a single company has ever lost their operating licence. 👇
🚨 The government has agreed an #NHS drug price hike with Trump’s administration - and neither the public nor MPs have had a say in it.
This deal could force the NHS to pay BILLIONS more for medicines, pushing other services to breaking point.
Watch, share, and tag your MP. ⬇️ #PatientsBeforeProfit #DrugPricing
Private equity owns lion’s share of children’s foster services in England, ‘bleeding the sector of money’.
Profits margins of 19%. Money extracted in interest payments, intragroup charges. Children suffer.
Ban profit-taking entities from foster services.

Dear 🇬🇧,
Here’s your reminder that a decade ago, before the NHS was intentionally gutted by the Tories, the UK health service was ranked #1 in the world. Do not let @Nigel_Farage con you into believing otherwise. It’s time to end privatisation and reinvest in the NHS.

The Telegraph has uncovered yet more about the UK government's 'AI skills hub' that suggests the entire thing was a rushed, vibe-coded hack job (which cost £4.1 million of taxpayers' money).
Their investigation reveals it includes:
- courses that seem to be AI-generated scams
- courses that are more than 20 years old
- 'degrees' that cost thousands of pounds yet offer no meaningful qualifications
- courses that don't exist at all
And so much more. This bit killed me: "One course on 'digital agriculture fundamentals' is provided by a Canadian education company and requires applicants to live in the rural provinces of Alberta, Manitoba or Saskatchewan."
Yet the government is digging in, saying the hub is meant to provide "deep and specialist expertise in AI", and that it intentionally includes "some hybrid international options".
To be clear, if one of the AI companies the government so admires had released this product, the person responsible would have been fired within a day.

90,000 properties in England/Wales are owned by offshore companies. Almost half unlawfully hide their true ownership
We've found them, mapped them, and published everything
▶️ This 60-second video shows how to find secretly owned property near you
📊 Details & stats below
They're selling you "15-minute cities" as walkable urban utopia. Here's what's actually being built:
Oxford and Canterbury have divided their cities into zones where residents are BANNED from driving between districts without permits. Fines for crossing. This isn't planning - it's control infrastructure.
The pitch: "Everything you need within 15 minutes! Less car dependency! Better for the environment!"
The reality: surveillance cameras at every boundary tracking license plates, permits required for movement within your own city, fines for unauthorized travel. When 60% opposed London's ULEZ expansion, they implemented it anyway. Democracy is theater.
This is spatial control disguised as environmentalism.
Once combined with CBDC (programmable digital currency), Digital ID, and the petrol/diesel ban by 2030, you get a complete control grid. They track your location constantly, restrict where you spend money, prevent you leaving your zone. Car ownership becomes impossible. You're dependent on controlled public transport.
Can't organize resistance when people can't travel to meet. Can't support businesses outside your zone. Can't escape surveillance within your zone.
This isn't conspiracy theory - Oxford and Canterbury openly announced these plans as part of UN Agenda 2030. The pattern: manufactured crisis (climate emergency) justifies measures that bypass democracy and become permanent.
They're building a cage and calling it a neighborhood. Most people will walk into it thinking they're saving the planet. By the time they realize they're trapped, the infrastructure will be complete.
The 15-minute city isn't about convenience. It's about making sure you can't leave.
Watch which cities implement this next. Watch when they connect it to digital ID and CBDC. The pieces are being assembled in plain sight.
Privatisation
Royal Mail delivered Xmas letters/parcels late to 16m people.
2025 figure is 50% higher than previous year.
RM doesn't meet targets.
Price Now: Ist class stamp £1.70; 2nd class 87p.
When privatised in 2013: 1st class 60p; 2nd class 50p.

If the Greens defeat Reform in Gorton and Denton, it will change politics in this country forever.
I think that's worth donating a few quid to - don't you?

NEW Nerve investigation reveals extent of Palantir's enmeshment in UK state operations
Peter Thiel's surveillance co. has deals with government bodies totalling at least £670m – inc. £15m contract with nuclear weapons agency
By @carolecadwalla@charlienotold + Max Colbert 🔗⏬
I am very concerned by the government's mass rollout of facial recognition technology.
This is a grave threat to privacy, and turns the presumption of innocence on its head.
We are hurtling toward a mass surveillance state. It must be opposed!
Private equity – “decimated” US hospitals – now targeting the NHS.
Neglected investment
Asset-stripping
Staff/Wage cuts
Tax dodges
Didn't pay suppliers leading to lack of equipment, disposables
Lack of food for patients
Building maintenance neglected.

DIGITAL ID: "They hired friendly hackers to penetrate One Login, they found they could take control of the system without being detected" @AndrewOrlowski
Govt is still pushing the public into One Login - millions of company directors effectively forced, & veterans encouraged when it clearly isn't secure - they need to stop
