They shouldn't have violated the ceasefire by returning to ~~Northern Israel~~ ~~Their Homes~~ a DMZ.

/s, obviously I hope.

But please always have a spare tube as well as a plug kit.

That's just what the ringfenced funds can be used for if the local authority decides to implement it.

Personally I have zero issues with this - most places in tourist hot spots do this and it just gets bundled in with the cost of staying there when you book accommodation anyway.

young women are taking up sex work for financial stability when they shouldn't have to.

This is true, and depressing.

But I think Kate Nash and Lilley Allen pros have other options to raise cash here - I doubt OF is a last resort for them. It is, however, a headline grabber for the British gutter press and will generate a lot of cover for two artists who really don't have a huge amount of space in the public consciousness these days.

For what it's worth, there are also some sex workers who do it because a)they enjoy it and b)it's a faster way to make money than other avenues available to them. Nash and Allen both seem to fallm under this bracket.

It's how a lot of "green" policies work. Totally bizarre logic.

My energy provider offers gas on green tarrifs by offsetting it with "carbon credits".

Do they mean shares as in, shares of a publicly traded company, or is this just glorified crowdfunding?

Probably best not to ask for that level of reporting from the BBC.

So is the idea to cheapen coffee given that the price of it is likely to increase with potential tariffs and climate change?

Or is it just because?

How else are you supposed to treat the peasantry? They ought to know their place.

Bought my partner a belt drive. It's amazing. Really lovely bit of kit once you get the hang of the eccentric bottom bracket.

Road.cc is chronic for that kind of thing. They have a "near miss of the week" section on their site - they thrive on being exactly the sort of irritating cyclists people get annoyed at.

Their primary product is rage bait and mediocre review content.
