A lot of the lager sold here as Spanish, Italian, Belgian or Czech is brewed in Burton, Tadcaster, Manchester, South Wales, Lancashire or Northampton. It is often different: brewed to a lower strength to land under a UK duty threshold, sometimes to a changed recipe pretendpint.com

PretendPint: 39 beers sold as foreign are brewed in Britain
39 beers on British shelves carry foreign branding and are brewed here. Where each is really made, its strength, who owns it, and which beers are what they say.

Gianni Infantino has flooded the zone again. He wants to put all of the money-making bits of FIFA (ie the World Cup) into a new co & then sell 20% to investors. He thinks it will raise $10bn over next 4yrs. I think we can assume hydration breaks are staying. www.nytimes.com/athletic/747...

Thames Water increased its bonus payouts to £4.1m for senior managers. It has £19.7bn debt, fleeces customers, dumps sewage in rivers, loses billions of litres of water to leaky pipes. Numerous criminal convictions, licence not revoked. But bosses rewarded .. for what? Govt/Ofwat do nothing.

Unlike , Leni Riefenstahl , Paltrow can’t pretend she’s apolitical & is unaware that Israel is carrying out a genocide. She’s chosen to advertise a luxury housing development in Herzliya Israel . All that time spent cultivating her consciousness has led to endorsing genocide . How very 2026 .

These aren't protests. They're racist riots. And it's time for the government to take them seriously. The PM should be convening COBRA and setting out a real plan to end this horrific violence and bring communities together. Now is a time for real leadership.
