That's the trap the restaurant uses to get out of giving 10% off.
The defendant saying that they did it doesn't mean that they did. That could be helping the real guilty party get off.
Definitely not. There are the obvious issues with miscarriages of justice but also I think that an eye for an eye justice is archaic.
One of my cats does the same. My assumption is he was taken from the mother cat too young so never learned how to do things properly.
For the smell maybe try grain free food.
Still partially in use the UK. We've got a really messed up system where metric is used for some things and imperial for others.
We tend to cook in metric but weigh ourselves in imperial (but stone and pounds not just stone)
Distance is metric for DIY and metric for driving.
Liquids are metric for most things and imperial for milk and beer.

No it doesn't seem to be in there. According to the highway code
Many of the rules in the Code are legal requirements, and if you disobey these rules you are committing a criminal offence. You may be fined, given penalty points on your licence or be disqualified from driving. In the most serious cases you may be sent to prison. Such rules are identified by the use of the words ‘MUST/MUST NOT’. In addition, the rule includes an abbreviated reference to the legislation which creates the offence. See an explanation of the abbreviations.
Although failure to comply with the other rules of the Code will not, in itself, cause a person to be prosecuted, The Highway Code may be used in evidence in any court proceedings under the Traffic Acts (see The road user and the law) to establish liability. This includes rules which use advisory wording such as ‘should/should not’ or ‘do/do not’.
No where does it say if an area is named specially as a must not, and another area is named as a should not in the same rule then the should not must be treated as a must not.
Or is there some case law maybe that you're referring to?
Do you have something to back that up? It seems very odd that London would be named specially as must not then a second clause for the remainder of the country that sounds different. Surely it should either be "you must not park on the pavement" or if there's some archaic reason that London needs specific wording "you must not park on the pavement in London, and you must not park on the pavement elsewhere "
Fair. It's hard to know sometimes if someone has English as a first or second language. People can be really technically good, but then not understand more subtle cultural things.
Never know maybe both of our comments will help some people.
It's common in English to refer to a collective like a company or government as though it were an individual. I think it's just a simple short hand really.
Eg "The whitehouse said today...." We know that the whitehouse (a building) doesn't have the power of speech and that really means "a whitehouse spokesperson working in an official capacity on behalf of the government said today".
Really the headline should be something along the lines of "what, exactly, are Xbox business strategists thinking?" But because of the common knowledge of how this shorthand works they can just use the headline they did.
There's probably a fancy linguistic name for it. ¯(ツ)/¯
There's so much going on in this picture.
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time. Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines. - Pink Floyd

I think you've misread it. Not that it's that much better.
20 months sentence (though probably half of that will be custodial the rest on licence/parole)
3 years and 10 month ban then an "extended" drivers test to get it back.
Might be worth letting the uni know. Surely they'll want to fix the site!
Capitalism has simultaneously held back areas of medical research and pushed it in others.
Capitalism has caused huge wars, but from those wars there have been huge medical advances.
