Flax_vert , in UK riots: Judge hands down longest jail sentences yet

Does he get to keep the loot tho

I’m not a lawyer, but I think Supermarket Sweep rules apply.

aberrate_junior_beatnik , in Drunken woman defecated on police officer who tried to put her in handcuffs

Not all heroes wear capes

downpunxx , in They encouraged us to insulate our home. Now it’s unmortgageable

wewbull , in Owner of Southport’s Windsor Mini Mart: ‘My shop was looted by rioters, then saved by strangers’

I’ve heard a few stories like this now. It’s a really healthy way for a community to respond, and really shows the feeling of the larger segment of society.

I hope it’s not just isolated cases.

Hestia , in Schools to teach children how to spot fake news and ‘putrid’ conspiracies online

Remember kids: if it says China good, it’s propaganda.

DarkThoughts , in Woman who ‘first shared fake name’ of Southport suspect arrested

And there's gonna be the same type of people claiming this arrest was unjustified.

tombruzzo , in Civil servants cannot wear ‘fetish gear’ to work, minister confirms

Good luck enforcing this. My regular belt is a hobble belt I bought from a fetish gear maker. I’d be in the office technically able to whip out a leather restraint at a moment’s notice.

I hope people in her office start wearing their own freaky gear in solidarity

wewbull , in UK riots: how does the violence compare with unrest in August 2011?

I finding it difficult to tell. It’s certainly more wide spread, but 2011 was 3-4 days (I think) of continual riots in the same area. This feels more like there’s a tour of the country going on.

sirico , in Term-time holiday fine rise won't stop us, say parents
@sirico@feddit.uk avatar

I don’t have kids but I’ve seen the prices, you can’t punish people both ways, Places like centre parcs need to have a ban on price hikes during off-term periods.

Aussiemandeus , in Fish and chips price rise tops UK takeaways
@Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone avatar

Even in Australia, 2 dollars of chips as a kid was enough for my mum brother and I, especially between some bread.

Now to be comparable you need 15 dollars worth.

If I could buy it with coins found on the ground in a day and can’t now it’s gone up far too much

“Why does gas make my green electricity provider more expensive?” …parliament.uk/why-is-cheap-renewable-electricity…

wewbull ,

This isn’t the whole story.

There’s also the fact that National grid are very wary of running without spinning turbines being available to restart the grid if a problem occured. The number of cases where, in retrospect, we could have switched gas off, but didnt, is growing month by month.

Apparently they have a plan to do it using pumped hydro stored energy, but we are always turning the wind power down rather than turning the gas off.

Once Dogger Bank is online it’ll be very common to have too much power being generated, and yet I’m sure gas will dictate the energy price if something doesn’t change.

It’s all faith really. There is no faith renewables can see us through when the wind is no blowing and their is no sun. Maybe tidal will help easy that fear. I absolutely believe there is plenty of time gas could have been off but wasn’t.

When the faith is there we don’t really need gas, that will when the price is decoupled and the markets will kill gas overnight.

ScreamingFirehawk , in UK's first drugs consumption room to open in October

Are the drugs provided?

rah ,

No. Unfortunately Tricky Dicky’s vote-winning “war on drugs” put paid to what used to be referred to as “the British system” where GPs could prescribe substances to those suffering with addiction in order to remove the pressure (on the addict as well as society as a whole) of acquiring the substance. Alas.

Wooki , in Giant spiders the size of rats making a comeback in UK

Thats not a spider, this is a spider

points to all of australia.

bungalowtill , in Golden age of English universities could be over, says head of watchdog

Ah, that‘s a shame.
