Yep using grains of truth to misslead is common. In fact I'd say it defines the last 10 years or so of world politics.

Unfortunately, while I love the law. This would not class as a lie in court. Just an absurd interpretation of the plan.
Most families have larger houses than most single people. Those who bath children use more water than those who shower them.
So yeah, this change in charging could lead to some families paying more to bathe. Of course, it's a distortion. And could be applied to any tax with enough work.
Much as they do for any form of charge that effects the more wealthy. They are just looking for the angle that lets them distort its effect in votes minds.
A wise position.
Basic principle of labours suggestion sounds fair.
But I would suggest if the gov dose set rates based on property size as suggested. It needs to also take into account occupancy.
A family of 10 living with 3 generations or more. Should not be paying higher per ltr than a single banker living in the same sized house.
Given they are including gardens in this. They also need to consider the risk of developers using it as an excuse to convert all gardens to housing. As the long term cost to society of no one having free space is higher.
Yep.
But for fuck's sake. Let's put some taxpayers' money into public funded pools and gyms, again.
Post thatcher privatised gyms etc. It have become absurdly expensive for anyone on a budget to get regular exercise. And swimming really is the easiest for physically less mobile folks to gain from.
Everyone should have access to near by low cost swimming pools.
Thanks for sharing.
I have minor optic atrophy and severe diabetic retinopathy. Have to say, these fonts really do help.
They make reading much more comfortable for me.
Now, need to work out how to add them to my android tablet,
Yep. While they are registered to a home nation. As soon as you log into another nation's Amazon website, it asks if you want to change nation.
Having multiple addresses from different nations is no issue. You just need to be sure to arrange delivery to the correct one.
I've never done it via their mobile app. But via a web browser, it's easy.
A guess.
But considering it is glycophate. Used as a weed killer and pest controller.
The only source would be cotton.
All non organic modern farms world wide use glycophate. Because plowing is considered bad for the climate. If farmers do not plow turning over the soil and releasing co2. Then the only way to prevent weeds is chemicals. Hence glycophate.
Given cotton is used mainly for clothing etc. I imagine it has lower requirements for such toxins compared to food production.
So my guess. It is believed to be all brands. The article states varicose brands were tested and all had high levels. But given the low numbers I doubt the press is confident enough to single out any of these brands.
A Guess. But when outside the UK. Twinings is the most likely one to find in supermarkets etc.
When I lived in the US it was often all I could find. Or that evil US shit Lipton.
Had to go to British stores to find Tetley. And only being back in the UK for 15 years did I discover the truth.
"Yorkshire tea is real tea."
Not if you want those debtors top invest in anything in your nation again.
The nation is then faced with a banking industry that refuses to trust any large government projects. So we then have to find the money for any investment before building.
Honestly, if we nationalized now. The debtors would expect the gov to pay. And it would be hard to refuse. At least without harming our national credit/trust.
Let the fuckers go bankrupt. Spend some time letting the military have to provide clean water. Aka 70s stand pipes.
Then rebuild them as a nationalized company. This way, the debtors cannot claim Thames water was anything but a dumb investment on their part.
It is very likely the extra 3b they just borrowed was only allowed because the banks consider potential nationalisation a risk reduction strategy. Fuck letting them screw taxpayers by funding failing companies.
Labour will not put country above party.
And the way things are. Not splitting the left vote is to late. The labour party has lost it. They have basically worked to reject it.
Actually continuing to encourage left wing voters to support labour is likely to split it worse then openly admitting labour is no longer looking for left wing support.
Given the significance of colour in party politics.
Using the name "Blue Labour" seems to be an open attempt to break party rules about supporting another party. While getting away with it.
These folks need to be treated as the Tories they claim to be.
