is there a wider program in the US where fast food companies maintain roads? I just remember Domino's filling in some potholes as a one-off promotional thing

road maintenance in the us is a complex inter and intra governmental program. I’m not aware of direct corporate sponsorship of public roads yet tho.

The UK can't kill no deal unilaterally without canceling Brexit as a whole.

prefect posted:What does that actually mean, though? I think it means someone gets locked up in big ben. quote:MPs accused of Contempt of Parliament may be suspended or expelled.[18] They may also be committed to the clock tower of the Palace of Westminster,[18] although this practice has not been used since Charles Bradlaugh was detained in 1880. Strangers (those who are not members of the House) may be committed to prison during the life of the Parliament. The House of Lords has the power to fine as well as to order imprisonment for a term of years. (the best part about england is you can't tell if its a joke or not)

At this Sir Stafford Northcote moved that Bradlaugh be taken into custody. The House agreed, on a division by 274 votes to 7 and Bradlaugh was taken to the small prison cell located under Big Ben in the Clock Tower.[21] (this was an elected MP that refused to swear an oath and wanted to affirm allegiance instead and then things fell apart)

MPs back motion declaring ministers in contempt of parliament over Brexit legal advice MPs have now passed the main motion declaring ministers in contempt of parliament over their failure to publish the Brexit legal advice in full by 311 votes to 293 - a majority of 18. The motion also orders the “immediate publication” of the document.
