They could slash that in half and it would still be too expensive. What a collosal waste of money. Absolutely brain dead pricing for fans.
They don't work for everyone. I know quite a few friends that have just eaten cold turkey and quit.
I think the problem is mostly in the naming. It's less of an equaliser in the maths sense but more of a wibbly-wobbly-thinger.

Yeah that's all fine and good. I just thought it was odd that they don't mention this. I'm not sure why they didn't. But I only spent a few minutes looking at the article, it was just something that crossed my mind. Usually this a big red flag when talking about and presenting data, that's all.
I don't see one already up so feel free to shit post here.

AHH he missed a trick there. If he were American he'd have got away with it.

In a move seen as an attempt by Labour to reassure the left of the party, Keir Starmer is set to reveal plans to recognise a Palestinian state.
Before you get too excited it's disappointing that this type of obfuscating language is still used as a get out free card.
>According to people familiar with a draft, it will say a Palestinian state should be recognised as "part of a peace process"
So basically never because a peace process won't ever happen the way it currently stands.
>when Sir Keir was asked whether a government he leads would follow Spain, Ireland and Norway in recognising a Palestinian state, he said it had to be "at the right time in the [peace] processā¦ what it does need is international backing and consensus about the right point". > >He added: "That's only going to happen if we work with our partners on it."
No it's only going to happen if you show some leadership instead of lagging behind Ireland, Spain, and Norway. Do you want to recognise the state or not? Or do you want to only recognise it when it's beneficial to you and you've calculated that going into an election it's not beneficial to you?
Disappointing.

There are many political and ideological dividing lines in British life, but perhaps the deepest and most damaging is that which was on show at the Weekend Truth Festival - when one part of the population rejects the others' view of reality.
Bat shit insane.
More than 120 bosses endorse Labour's economic plans ahead of the election saying it is ātime for a changeā.
The message, first reported by the Times, accused one MP of "refusing to engage" with the general election campaign and raised questions about a minister's "cooperation".
I'm kinda hopeful that this isn't Sunak's Gordon She's A Bigoted Woman Brown moment because I want to see something more embarrassing to him during the election than this.
This nutter must be on some seriously strong shit.
