  1. When did the term become commonly used in the NE though? I don't remember it being used that much in the 1980s at school tbh. Didn't it really take off during the Hall era?
  2. There are always constraints. Can you show me where she has defined these please? And where she has said she wouldn't abide by the teachers' pay review decision? Because I can't see it anywhere outside a tweet by "Stats for lefties", a group who are clearly as partisan as you on these issues. In fact, she seems to have said almost the opposite from what is implied on the Sunday shows (categorically opposed to "austerity 2" for instance). Ditto PL's tweet written by a contibutor to the Morning Star. I dislike dishonesty wherever I see it. Don't get me wrong, I'm unhappy about a hell of a lot of things Starmer represents and am massively underwhelmed by him as a leader. But I'm not going to take random tweets from partisan sources like these as gospel, who have a clear agenda against the party executive, as per. If Starmer jettisons Miliband, Nandy, and Lammy feel free to tell me you told me so. If he doesn't, don't forget to correct yourself either.
  3. I'm pretty much Middle England in many ways and this potentially upsets me a lot. Until I actually bother reading the source material and lets just say the tweet is pretty disingenuous imo, though Reeve's fence sitting isn't great.
  4. Just seen this. Invoice for new keyboard sent to Chez MF.
  5. And that's an incredibly low bar.
  6. No idea about him tbh, but he just looked exactly like somebody from Book of Mormon would. How come he's mates with old Reg then?
  7. CT was right all along. He's caught gay!
  8. I was just waiting for the news, another hour of this shit? I'll find something to stream I think.
  9. Jesus Christ, Goodbye Norma Jean, mangled to fuck. 🎵"Seebed to be you libbed yo lithe like a candle in the bins, never known who to clang to web raib bet in" 🎵
  10. The cheeky cunt introduced this as "probably" his last ever gig, in England or the UK.... maybe. Didn't he once perform as a decapitated head in a jar in the Simpaons or Futurama? Fact repeating fiction again tbh.
  11. Jesus Christ. Elton Hercules John waddling on stage there. Obviously didn't have time to fit the Stannah stairlift like his bespoke gigs. Honestly, Glastonbury has become a bit of a freak show.
  12. Scanning it, it seems to be saying, yeah, the lifestyle and pay is better, but there are not enough coffee breaks, I don't get to sip pina coladas on the beach at weekends, the NHS is nearly as good, and it's a long way from home if there's an emergency family situation No shit. My nephew's loving it like, Melbourne is apparently an upgrade on Stanley County Durham strangely enough.
  13. And talking of the Manics, from that thread.
  14. Back home, put the telly on, fucking hell, a geriatric Debby Harry strutting up the gantry with a zimmer frame and incontinence pads. Getting old is shit, just do it gracefully and don't tarnish the legacy ffs. Probably massively sexist but just seems magnified when the person in question was a sex goddess.
  15. This actually appeals to my 20 year old self. Nowt else does though, you're right.
  16. We'd better not get Armageddon this weekend like. I'm staying on the Clyde not far from Faslane. Fucking typical.
  17. Rostov-on-Don? South Yorkshire is such a shithole.
  18. I know Tony Hadley, I mean Alex Turmer has laryngitis but what the fuck is this shit? Even Mardy Bum sounds like it's on 33 rather than 45. What a pile of shite. [\grumpyoldman].
  19. Apparently she's been declared bankrupt and now going to get chopped up with a bone saw. 🤷‍♂️
  20. The Titanic is a grave man, it's fucking disgusting. Fuck the elite, fuck those most fucking the planet. Fuck Titanic exploration, fuck space tourism, and fuck Everest trips while we're at it. Fuck private yachts in Monaco as well. Fuck them all. I'm no communist but obscene wealth just fucks me off. Have I used my fuck allocation up yet?
  21. Shame he had to kill a teenager to prove what a great rule breaking entrepreneur he was. This is a great example of why regulations and certifications are necessary. Anyway, these people can get fucked. Doing this purely to boast at their champagne enema parties that they've visited the titanic. They're not explorers, they are contributing nothing to the World and doing this for pure vanity. Meanwhile hundreds of immigrants die on a fishing boat in the Med, not a single name will be remembered.
  22. This Titan submarine was well fucking dodgy. None of the components certified. There was a bloke on C4 news last night who was due to make this trip but backed out as he was concerned by the lack of certification. Smart move. This thread is great for anyone interested in how to do things properly (as in Deepsea Challenger) and how fucked up this Titan sub was.
  23. QT tonight is a gammontastic fest with no remainers allowed! Except Al Campbell on the panel. And even then the government couldn't find anyone to support this pile of shit. I'min two minds as to see if the penny has finally dropped with these cunts or not.
  24. The tory mismanagement of the housing market has been done with their customary aplomb. All to protect their demographic, who are rapidly literally dying out now. And more generally, classic short termism in politics which Starmer has vowed to continue with of course. What a time to be alive. I did enjoy the 90s/noughties while they lasted mind.
