Starmer would lose a game of musical chairs if there were ten chairs and he was playing by himself.

TGI Friday's have taken away free staff hot meals, as part of a general race to the bottom for hospitality sector employee conditions, as well as a petty slap in the face to people whose food bills are rising.

Funnily, sainsburys at some point I think last year, introduced a bunch of free stuff in the canteen for anybody who works or visits the store, which I thought was uncharacteristically lenient.

I know TGIF isn't a real restaurant, but the whole in-house meal thing is so integral to a well-functioning kitchen (at least in my teenage dishwasher experience), it's one thing that the show The Bear gets extremely right. This is just pathetic miserliness that will bite them in the rear end

Prussia. The French have had a few goes at rewriting that line because it feels awkward to play it around Germans, but tbh since Prussia was the successor state to the genocidal military theocracy of the Teutonic Order and went on to the form the third Reich there aren't that many people who feel it's a priority E; you can also just sing l'internationale to it, the lyrics were written for the melody.

The actual balance is that it's something that men (e.g. Boris Johnson) always did far more often than women, but now that a woman has done it (even after a long discussion) the Mail is interested.

Depends what you mean by acceptable I guess? The consequences for the person leaving are mostly social so they'll be dictated by your friend group and social circle and the like I think. Like you always could and continue to be able to leave somebody at any time for any reason but lots of people will think you're a jerk in these sorts of circumstances probably, as they are in this case. Most people probably wouldn't put it out into the general public with their face and presumably name in an article declaring the thing they've done though. I'd say that's an error, personally. If I knew both people involved I'd think to myself "jeez, terrible situation and that seems lovely but ultimately not my place to judge cause I'm not in their shoes".
