Like, just show which of the 3 “locks”have been used each year since introduced and what the effect would have been under the proposals. “We have used the lock we propose changing twice since the triple lock was introduced, without it the current pension would be £x less which we propose y to solve”

When I read about this earlier I remembered something @oldenoughtosay.com posted recently about redheads needing more anaesthetic during surgery and thought “is this enough proof yet?!?”

The roofs won’t be enough
“Just put them on roofs instead” is the most comfortable argument in British politics. It is also the one that quietly hands the bill to our children.

In the UK, Prince William has launched an anti-suicide campaign with the Premier League, whose every other ad is for gambling. Hey prince: how about you dust off some old dungeons & fill them with every gambling CEO & the celebs who endorse them & watch suicides plummet? EASY PEASY MATE

I remember Little Lies and 7 wonders being on the radio loads during the summer holidays that year - loved the melodies - I’d have been 7. My auntie asked what I wanted for Christmas that year and I told her Fleetwood Mac on cassette (I didn’t get it - bought it many years later on CD)

The Bible literally says that a woman can be created from a man’s rib, Janet.
Telegraph and Mail journalist Janet Murray on Facebook: Apparently the Church of England has ordained its first 'transgender woman' - following a 'gender transition'.
Now, I'm no biblical scholar. But I did go to a faith school, study compulsory RE until I was 16, and get an 'A' in Religious Studies (back when that was the top grade). So I'm scratching my head here.
Genesis says God created humankind "male and female". Where does the Bible say that men can become women? Sarah Jones is a man, not a woman.

When you know that @smmt-ukauto.bsky.social EV target moans are BS ‘Meanwhile EV discounts fell to 10.7% from 11.1%, which the group said was mainly down to companies such as Mercedes-Benz and MG “scaling back their incentives as they close in on their required ZEV mandate levels for the year”.’

It seems like the police are assuming the far-right losers are 'looking for an excuse' to do more damage and so must be given maximum space. In fact, they are turning a big dial that says 'thuggery' on it and constantly looking over at the state for the slightest sign of consequences.
