@ZoeJardiniere I’d be interested to know what limits of force you would put on yourself if you were confronting someone who had just stabbed two people and still had the knife in his possession?
It’s easy to judge watching a video, imagine how you would feel in that position. Officers are human
@LoftusSteve Anxiety would not be a widespread condition if we as a country of people demanded better.
One issue creates another, then another and it snowballs.
If the people of this country felt we were treated fairly in all endeavours, this would disappear
@implausibleblog The audience members do not seem to be able to look at the big picture.
Yes you should be treated with dignity and respect through this process.
However when so many others fraudulently abuse the scheme, it completely undermines its original purpose.
@implausibleblog This young lady has made the mistake of allowing her experience to be the norm.
I wish it was, because I have empathy for anyone genuinely struggling but still trying.
The reality is, too many are abusing and manipulating the system, its unfeasible
@MarinaPurkiss You’re not wrong, our country has lost its sense of morality.
We as a whole need to regain our grounding of decency that our parents, grandparents parents and great grandparents lived by.
That means not letting narratives of politics define us.
@clairebubblepop Both things can be true at the same time.
Not only have wages and living standards dropped due to poor governance, but immigration has made this possible for businesses exploiting the labour market.
It compounds
@MartinSLewis if you were put in control of UK Energy tomorrow for 5 years guaranteed, what would be your first action?
What would you consider a success in 2030?
@Sean_Brooker@MartinSLewis Storage is the best option if we truly are trying to take a step away from global gas prices.
However the companies building and running the wind/solar farms will always keep prices high for consumers because maintenance and life span is unpredictable
@MartinSLewis@thatebookshop Martin I completely appreciate you being neutral. I believe 40% of the country is neutral, there’s not any political movement worth getting behind, it’s been this way for my entire adult life, just two or three of equally bad options, nothing inspiring.
I appreciate your efforts
@chet152@HighwaysNWEST@LancsPolice There was a person running out into the middle of the motorway trying to get hit by a car I had to swerve at 70mph to avoid and rang the police. That was at 22:40 last night.
