Breakfast All Day posted:an eton mess is just whip cream and fruit (the meringue wasnt even in the original version), like you would get anywhere in the western world since the 16th century, but like everything else the english are convinced it's a particular thing they invented bc their incest lords all had it at the same lunchroom as children. they probably call farts "eton trumpets" Stupid Victorian English can't even go on the internet and check their dessert patents for prior art

Rustybear posted:the tories will do something in oct to try to get that new leader bounce but it'll be at the last possible minute, disorganised and cost 10x what it could have for less effect, i'm guessing a means-tested/tiered price cap freeze i dunno about means tested but if you wanted to still limit consumption you'd probably subsudize the first x watts a day where x is the average energy use and have a headcount on each house. then maybe incentivize people going lower, so maybe like progressive taxation so people are still motivated to reduce use. i imagine that's probably not going to happen under this government tho. e: ooh, probably use the energy efficency rating of where you live, that would be useful too. so you wouldn't be penalized for living in a drafty place.

forkboy84 posted:Yes, that's I'm saying, the problem is foreigners owning Scottish land, not good Brits, which is why I mentioned Ann Gloag, born in Perth (co-owner of Stagecoach) who owns Beaufort Castle and the 4th Viscount Astor who owns a large part of the island of Jura and that's without mentioning the many other Lords who own part massive chunks of the country like the Duke of Buccleuch, Duke of Atholl, Duke of Hamilton, Duke of Argyll & far too many others to mention. And that's without touching on land owned by the royals like Balmoral Castle. dedicating half my rant to the evil foreigners for no reason

He was reported to have attacked as many as six politicians,[30] including a Labour whip,[31] after having gone "berserk" following a dispute with a group of Tory MPs sitting nearby.[32][33] He headbutted and punched the Conservative MP, Stuart Andrew,[34] after striking Labour Assistant Whip Phil Wilson, while Wilson was attempting to restrain him. He also headbutted Thurrock Conservative councillor Ben Maney, and punched Basildon Conservative Councillor, Luke Mackenzie, both of whom were attempting to break up the incident.[35] Two more Conservative MPs, Alec Shelbrooke and Jackie Doyle-Price, were also caught up in the fracas while attempting to intervene and calm Joyce down.[36] A door window was smashed as Joyce attempted to resist arrest In August 2012, Joyce was back in Court after using scissors on 4 July 2012 to remove the electronic tag that had been fitted to his leg as part of the community order; he was fined £600.[41] A year later, on 14 March 2013, Joyce was again arrested after a disturbance during a karaoke event in the sports and social bar of the House of Commons.[42][43] He was seen outside the bar wrestling on the floor with two police officers and reportedly had one of the officers in a headlock. now that's what I call nonce sense yeah yeah regarding my previous etc

After going raj in one of the 85 subsidised Commons bars, he was kicked out of Labour & so in 2013 Labour had to select a new candidate for his seat of Falkirk. A Unite shop steward became chair of the constituency party & started recruiting union members into the party, mostly from the local oil refinery. This was allowed according to the Labour rulebook, & it doubled the number of members in the CLP from 100 to 200, & they wanted to select Karie Murphy, a former nurse & long-time union activist. Joyce pissed & moaned about this on his blog because he's a right wing toad, the NEC suspended the contest because Blairites gonna Blairite, Ed MIliband did gently caress all because he was a useless melt and after an investigation Murphy was cleared of any wrongdoing, obviously. In the meantime though a candidate was chosen, a loving non-entity former MSP who lost her seat at Holyrood in 2011. She went on to get absolutely loving humiliated at the election & has since only been notable for running Anas Sarwar's campaign to be Scottish Labour leader last year. The absolute cretins in the Labour right decided the solution to this union flexing its muscles was to change the rules of the next leadership election from an electoral college system to one member, one vote. Previously MPs & MEPs counted for 1/3, union members & affiliated societies for 1/3 & all other party members for 1/3, because they thought that somehow this would favour them. Of course doing so pissed off the unions who'd traditionally been a bulwark of the Labour right in the pre-Blair era.

Jose posted:Lol Northern Ireland's water supply is also state-run and is pretty good. I've to call them on two occasions about drains backing up in two different properties and they were on the scene in a couple of hours both times. Unfortunately on the environmental side NI government agencies are pretty poo poo at preventing agricultural run-off into waterways, which is probably the reason for the big brown streak down the middle of the region. It's by surface area and Europe's largest stagnant run-off lake sits right it the middle. Thankfully most of our water reservoirs are in the blue areas.

marktheando posted:pheasants are so fat and stupid it's amazing people have the nerve to call shooting them hunting. especially when they get their servants to drive the birds right into the line of fire. tbf pheasant shooting is called ‘shooting’, very specifically not hunting. it can be driven shooting (where you have beaters and dogs driving the birds towards a line of guns) or rough shooting (normally a small group of people walking together cross country with or without dogs to scare the birds up), but in those circles ‘hunting’ solely refers to horseback poo poo with dogs to rip apart wildlife of various flavours.

Shooting upland birds and waterfowl, tracking and pursuit of large game on foot or marksmanship across the open moor is a lot more dignified than Americans getting drunk in a tree stand and the animals coming to them.

Even the tories in the room were like "why not just give them the money?" and iirc it was dropped

If you remove the English army tomorrow and hoist the green flag over Dublin Castle, unless you set about the organization of the Socialist Republic your efforts would be in vain. England would still rule you. She would rule you through her capitalists, through her landlords, through her financiers, through the whole array of commercial and individualist institutions she has planted in this country and watered with the tears of our mothers and the blood of our martyrs.
