@BerghShaun@andrewfrugby@scrumming_ten Why not; there is no "in from the side" in open play. in form the side is referring to an illegal entry to a ruck; you can't enter a ruck illegally if there is no ruck.
@FrontRowRugbyXV the need to tear a woman down and frame it as equality is interesting. She is one of the best in the game right now. She won world rugby's World Rugby Referee Award in 2025
@BerghShaun@andrewfrugby@scrumming_ten In form the side applied to rucks; for a ruck to form, there needs to be two opposing players contesting for the ball, you can't be in from the side when you are the player forming the ruck.
@yuppariana@Domjb03 about the only metric we win in is GDP per Capita; and our CSO had to invent Modify GNI since foreign direct investment has so skewed our GDP.
Also, in terms of sheer economic production......
The British economy is slowing down, but it's still a juggernaut.
@jacknolan__ I actually like the term "British Isles" and think it could have been neutral...... It's not our fault the Anglo-Saxon sections of the island developed into political project that turned the concept of "British" into a ideological in-group to create an imperial empire out of.
@misanthropeyrk@jacknolan__ The Celts were not a single "people" - they were a language grouping; there are at least 6 major language groups in that picture that split from the continental Celtic language groups of mainland Europe. There is no Celtic word to represent Celts. It's more complicated than that
@LetcalfeLark@fergalreid We genuinely do though - we call them TDs.
Also Taoiseach is used in all our media so it's a common thing to hear and reitterate.
@fergalreid Ironically, both sides are right in this one. The position of Taoiseach is referred to as the Prime minister in our own official documentation. But the correct way to reference or refer to the position is an "Taoiseach"

@latte_elitist@MuirMurdoch@Alex_Fairfax06 Fair correction: modern Goidelic languages do have /p. I should've said Primitive/early Irish lacked native /p. David Stifter notes Latin introduced /p into Irish around the 5th century and original Ogham had no P letter. Still silly to argue ‘Pritani’ is "our" word for ourselves
