Terrorists don't usually get remanded on bail, unless they're grannies with placards. I bet the bail money went on expenses.

Dale, please go and have a chat with Zack. You are wearing the wrong colour T-shirt. Labour is bought and paid for.

It's a false flag gone wrong. Terrorists are not released on bail, unless they are grannies with pieces of paper. The guys arrested were English. No explosives have been found. The police were aware of the vans an hour before the farmer's 999 call.

Wow, that's quite encouraging, on the face of it. Your persistence and tenacity in researching and raising the issue is paying-off. Words are one thing tho', let's see what they actually do.

When the state pension is the same as the minimum living wage I will agree with you. We currently have the poorest pensioners in Europe.

Thanks. He takes a lot of persuasion to eat even a couple of mouthfuls of the 'renal' food, wet or dry and discovered today his blood pressure is very high so we have tablets for that as well now.

So our glorious leaders allow our water and power utilities to be plundered, with subsidies, by "Data Centres" and they have zero justification for them. We need to follow the money.

Does anyone have experience of cats with kidney disease? How do you get them to eat? Mine is refusing special 'renal' wet food and only has a few nibbles of dry food. He's gone from six kilos to four over three months. Very worried about him. Advice welcome, please. #cats #catsWithKidneyDisease

We're about to do the same. Tomatoes, garlic and some fresh basil, cook it down and freeze. So versatile to use.

Yes, you can get winter hardy varieties of lettuce, e.g. Little Gem in the UK. I grow them in the unheated greenhouse. There are also winter hardy varieties of peas and broad beans which can also be grown under cover.

For context, my panels are rated at 7.680kW. Today at 09:57 it's dull and overcast and they are generating 2.41kW. 31% 31% of 800W = 248W. Better than nothing, but it won't power much and you won't be exporting anything. It will be less in the winter months.

800 watts max in full mid-day summer sun with south-aligned panels will run the fridge and a few lights & chargers for a few hours, but not much else. They won't boil a kettle. How long before people buy more and plug them all into an extension lead?

Genius timing from the government. Just as the weather starts to change into the 6 month cloudy, cold & wet season, you can get plug-in solar. I'd wait until next May. Context; I already have a solar system installed.

Does anyone have experience of renal issues with cats? We learnt yesterday our stray ginger tom, who's been with us 10 years, has advanced kidney disease. Have just picked-up some Royal Canin renal food, but how do you separate the special food from the 'normal' food for the other cats ?

£3.4bn is going on to YOUR Water Bill to subsidise Data Centres owned by trillionaire companies that don't pay tax in the UK. The UK is a failed Mafia State, that exists only to rob you.
