Left wing ideas...like preserving working conditions?

Edit: The Bloch MB.157 was a prototype fighter aircraft developed under the Vichy regime. It did not enter production because the prototype was destroyed in an Allied air raid.

What does right wing maths look like?

If henry has 5 apples and boris has 500,000 what's the best way for boris to steal the other 5 apples and blame joe for being a dirty poor?

Boris has 3 mistresses and 7 illegitimate children, approximately how many times did he cheat on his wife? round up to the nearest 10.

Completely ignoring the achievements of non-white and particularly islamic people in teaching about the history and development of mathematics as a science.

So, like now, really.

Since we're on the topic of food, I have a tin of "mackeral fillets in a rich tomato sauce" and "sardines in a rich tomato sauce" (all skinless and boneless)

What kind of meal might these ingredients be a part of? The tins themselves don't give suggestions

Where did you get them from? I ask because I had one of those tins of mackeral at the weekend with some spiral pasta and the three least-dead looking basil leaves from my basil plant. It's not nearly as posh as some of the other pasta suggestions here but actually tasted OK.

I couldn't cook in university either and spent the entire time circling through the same 4 pasta and toast based meals. What's different is that I was sharing the cooking at home for a year before going to uni, and honestly it destroyed any confidence I had. Before serving anything, my dad would always insist on dragging my mother over to the saucepans, get her to confirm I'd cooked 'it' properly, and then turn his nose up at his plate anyway. When I first started cooking, I'd excitedly torn recipes out of magazines - nothing outrageous, stuff like stir-fry sauces from scratch, fish pies, just normal meals that I wanted to learn to cook for myself - and by the time I left for uni everything was beige and bland and boiled to death, and thus lived up to my belief that I was the world's worst cook.

Edit: despite the Lazy Fish Pasta meal, I do actually cook proper meals, and now win local baking competitions with cakes that my father *still* refuses to taste when he finds out I've made them.

In my professional experience PhD students and early career people are either communists or weirdass UKIP looking royalists with nothing in between, but there's a depressing amount of liberalism amongst the comfortably employed professors etc which is hardly surprising. Lots of 'crossing this picket line to go lecture about Marx' lol

A few pages back, but this didn't happen in Stafford, did it? Not my year but the one who moved into halls immediately after us had this happen and I refuse to believe that there are two phantom turd bakers on the loose.

My uni campus was constantly full of rabbits (to the point where they were basically a mascot) and the rumour there was always that a group of students had captured and cooked one. In every version of the rumour the students were Chinese though so it's more of a race hate story than a student cooking one.

It's not even a particularly bad race hate one. "Chinese cook and eat stray cats and dogs" is the usual racist one, whereas catching and cooking wild rabbits was like 90% of the reason that people owned Jack Russells and ferrets.

Friend who went to Essex uni was told that you shouldn't try to cook the rabbits because they have Mix.

I thought this was a universally accepted practice.

I think the issue is “fill it up with tap water”. Obviously a little bit is a great idea. Filling it just gets a lot of water in your sauce.

It adds flavour that water doesn't and you should be drinking the rest of the wine anyway

A full jar of wine is definitely a waste
