It’s probably true that Tesco can’t immediately send money back to people, people are saying bank transfers are immediate but Tesco don’t have your bank details, they have your credit/debit card and card transactions take much longer. They do have the ability to credit your account or comp a delivery or issue vouchers to cover a new delivery in the interim and they appear to have done none of those things.

The strangest part is right at the end of that article: "He will add: “They got themselves so tangled up in culture wars of their own making, that instead of working with the Royal National Lifeboat Institution – an organisation the late queen was patron of for 70 years – to find real solutions to stop the small boats, their rhetoric has helped demonise them." Aside from the Smol Boats stuff and the invocation of Her Maj Gawd Bless Her...what real solutions to stop the small boats could the RNLI have? The RNLI literally has one purpose - Saving Lives At Sea. They're not a coast guard or a marine traffic agency. They have no power or ability to stop anything or anyone on the sea going anywhere or doing anything. They exist only to save the lives of people in distress at sea, regardless of who those people are or how they got into that situation. What on earth does Starmer think the RNLI could do to Stop The Boats if the government worked with them?

Julio Cruz posted:then that's on him for not booking earlier, don't go blaming Tesco for having to get up early Yes, we can all predict what we need a week in advance. I would absolutely blame them if I go out of my way to be available for one of their early slots and they just...don't show up. That's their fault. What the hell, do you have stock in Tesco or something?

If it was someone else I might be willing to entertain the idea that he's knowingly talking shite in order to calm the gammons and make it sound like he'll Sort Things Out. As it's Keith I assume his thinking is "The RNLI has boats, the government has M2 machine guns, this solves itself".

I mean if you read the article and had any interest other than yelling about how everyone else is in an idiot, you would probably see he was saying there was a better way for a government to deal with a vital and historically well loved service like the rnli rather than picking fights with it over rescuing migrants and their use of funding. And in so doing that the rnli could play a part in ending the "small boats crisis" rather than claiming they are exacerbating it.

And in so doing that the rnli could play a part in ending the "small boats crisis" rather than claiming they are exacerbating it. I did read the article. I quoted from it. I stand by my interpretation that it's, at least, very strange for Starmer to think that the RNLI has some organisational solution to the Small Boats up its oilskin sleeve if only the government was willing to listen to them. As Guavanaut said, the only possible solution the RNLI could have, given its resources, remit, abilities and legal status (remember it's a civilian charity, not even an emergency service), is monitoring safe crossing routes. Which certainly is a solution but I would bet money on it not being one Starmer is remotely interested in implementing or publicly voicing. So what else does Starmer think a Labour government and the RNLI could work towards? It makes no sense. It would be like suggesting the Royal British Legion could sort out the war in Ukraine if only the government would work with them. The RNLI absolutely should not be made a target or scapegoat for just saving people from drowning (same as when the RN got called in and then had some of its people spat on because the good people of Kent were upset that the navy was also just fulfilling its obligations to rescue people rather than turning the machine guns on them). But Starmer didn't say that. He said the RNLI could help with solutions and I an at a loss as to what those are that would fulfill the political need to Stop The Boats. It's either empty posturing, stringing together words and phrases into the perfecr triangulated statement (Work Together/The Queen/Real Solutions/RNLI/Stop The Boats/Get On With It) or he has a solution in mind that's stupid - probably involving installing ChatGPT on lifeboats.
