@bulkbiker@DamianLow3 Not letting them on to the mainland, now there’s a novel idea.
A big boat or 2 in the channel should have the same effect. Swimming distance of France even better.
@bulkbiker@EddyDantesk I think Eddy means:
placing solar panels on farms, environmentalists blocking new reservoirs, increasing the population with a subsequent dramatic increase in the urban heat island effect will impact on food availability.
@kellro36@moore_martin This is what I struggle with when it comes to the left. He is keeping Reeves fiscal rules, sticking to the Labour manifesto and so far just making a lot of unfunded announcements. Apart from wearing a T-shirt and having a bit of personality how does he differ from Starmer?
@bulkbiker@King0243_PJC Even Burn’em is only claiming to have “announced” things!
It will be interesting to see what happens when Parliament returns with a budget just around the corner. Announcing a u-turn on Labours £3 bus cap may be his biggest achievement!
Dear @Miatsf, @andyburnham, @ZackPolanski,
If we hit net zero, and never burn another twig, the summer will still be hot!
Build some blinking reservoirs!
From an increasingly frustrated UK!
The fastest female, 100-meter sprinter in recorded history is American legend Florence Griffith Joyner. She set the world record of 10.49 seconds on July 16, 1988.
In 2026, there were over 1000 high school boys that beat this record! You read that correctly. In this year alone, there were over 1000 high school boys that beat the record of fastest woman in the world ever!
If just one of those boys, or a meager 1/10 of 1%, decided to compete as a woman, he would crush the women’s world record!
I’m not talking about a high school record or a college record or even an Olympic or professional record. I’m talking about the women’s world record that has held since 1988!
Remind me again, why you’re not supportive of women’s rights.
@ralpha060461 I’m yet to experience that pleasure!
My daughter moved in last year and I spent most of the winter servicing/replacing part for her oil heating! Hate it when people move out saying we haven’t used it for a while and you soon discover why!
I wonder what the situation is like in other countries? Is the UK an outlier in water management? @ChrisMartzWX it would be interesting to hear what the US water management system is like.
One of the wettest winters. Drought by summer. What went wrong?
UK winter rainfall was 13% above average. Yet half of England and all of Wales are now in drought.
Over the past 30 years:
📈 UK population up 11.5 million
💧 No major new reservoir completed in England
💷 Average water bills up around 33% in two years
🚰 Nearly one litre in five lost through leaks
More people. Higher bills. Where was the infrastructure?
What has failed most: the weather, the water companies or government planning?
@afneil The thought that saving for my families future, not spunking money away on flashy cars and holidays, is now seen as a “bad thing” by the left is extremely worrying.
@DerekLary@w_bravel I hope so but I am a little worried that we have another “elite” manager with a dressing room full of large egos and owners who stroke those egos more than support the manager!
@bulkbiker@davidfrum Can David define “Covid death”?
There is a general trend that Trump voters are older and would therefore be more likely to die of natural causes.
