What is the propellant in normal squirty cream because if that's also nitrous oxide I feel like that presents a problem. I assume the reason you use nitrous oxide is because carbon dioxide would acidify the cream and curdle it?

It is. It's also trivial to make (but a lot less trivial to make safely), it's like someone googled the worst parts of prohibition. Imagine doing polling for taliban approval rates. You're almost around the back of the political hyperloop to Maoist "any violence is justified by the mass line" but from the nth dimension and with more technocrats.

Also The Taliban didn't take over with violence. They basically rolled in unopposed after making deals with their enemies on the strength of not being the Coalition forces.

But they're only polling at 4%, so we need to go back and do more occupation.

It genuinely is amazing that because the country has been occupied for 20 years that means that the occupation is the de-facto government and therefore automatically has the consent of the governed. I'm sure you can apply that brain wormery to a lot of other things about blairite thinking.

And more soluble in fat, which is also how it works as an anesthetic.

Boris Johnson enjoys the relatively straightforward positive press coverage of praising and pinning medals on soldiers. Sir Kier: ‽

Seriously, if that was proposed as the punchline of a satirical sketch ("Retire the Pacers...and use them as schools!") it would be too on the nose.

I'm not trying to excuse Tories trying to fob cheap stuff as replacements for necessary facilities, but I had many classes in old caravans as a kid, and I don't think it diminished those classes. But I am from Tyne & Wear, so maybe I missed out on the spaceships or whatever Southerners used.

Excellent. So we are now officially outranked by bank republics for infrastructure. Those portakabins were horrid, no heat in winter, no ventilation in summer, and disturbingly prone to rocking in wind.

Think about whiteboards, lines of vision, electricity, movement of kids around the room for group work. A portable/ temporary classroom is one thing but these are totally unsuitable. I had plenty of lessons in temporary classrooms (and they were functional but not great) as a kid and I've been a teacher. The space in a porta cabin is one thing. A Pacer? There's no way these things will be suitable or cheaper than a temporary classroom.

My primary school had two Portakabins in the playground which never made any sense because the school was small enough that there were just one class in each year which had a fixed classroom each. I think I once had a couple of classes in one because there was a broken window in my normal room, but apart from that they just sat there enigmatically taking up already extremely limited space. Then they got moved to the nursery school round the corner when it was "discovered"[1] that the original 1950s building was basically lead-enriched asbestos, where they're still somehow in use. [1] "Discovered" as in literally every parent, teacher, and local official knew about it but pretended not to until the big storm in 1987 slightly damaged it and no builder on the planet would go near it.

They were still there when I left in 2001 but I think they ultimately got rid of them a few years later.
