I just found out that water is considered a human right in Ireland, and households don’t pay water bills.
Every country should be like that.
Water is a human right and always should be.
Remember when they sold us the slogan, “Go paperless, save trees, save the planet”?
Now we've gone digital, and it's consuming enormous amounts of water, destroying ecosystems, harming bees, and contributing to environmental damage on a scale paper never did.

I keep saying this, but this is one of the biggest issues with the focus on ‘know your rights’ training over the last 10 years. We’ve been inadvertently assisted the police to make otherwise illegal searches and arrests, legal.
Know your rights but know how to use them effectively. Pursue damages and compensation claims for all illegal interactions.
The Players Tribune is an absolutely incredible publication, that allows footballers to speak candidly, share stories and connect with fans in ways they wouldn’t do, so I take issue when some shitty website like this literally rips the whole article and posts it
the left image isn't coming back in modern Britain. roads are unsafe to play in bc of traffic, cost of living pressures make activities and small luxuries unaffordable, youth centres and clubs are underfunded, not to mention the wrath of elderly curtain-twitchers
