I didn't know you could be stripped of your state pension and furthermore I didn't know the mayor of London could do it

it's kind of misleadingly worded but I assume that means his police pension (the employer contributions element at least which would make it state funded)

Their paywall was stupidly easy to bypass, and the polling site had no checks to prevent multiple votes other than setting a cookie after you voted.

I set up a repeater to vote every 500ms while I went out for a very nice Sunday lunch.

Certainly does explain a lot yeah. Every poll I've seen lately divides it by age and it's just so incredibly clear how opinions are divided

The "politics divided by age" thing is pretty recent though and basically a function of how if you got a house before 2008 you're doing well and if you didn't you're probably hosed, the more hosed the younger you are

quote:

The test firing of a Trident missile from a Royal Navy submarine has failed, for the second time in a row.

The latest test was from HMS Vanguard off the east coast of the US and was witnessed by the defence secretary.

The missile's booster rockets failed and it landed in the sea close to the launch site, according to the Sun, which first reported the malfunction.

When on patrol the missiles would usually be armed with a nuclear warhead but they are not fitted for test fires.

This is highly embarrassing for both the UK and the US manufacturer of the Trident missile.

British tests of Trident missiles are rare, not least because of the costs. The price tag of each missile is around £17m and the last test was in 2016 when it also ended in failure when the missile veered off course.

Both the Defence Secretary Grant Shapps and the head of the Navy were on board HMS Vanguard, which has just had a more than seven year refit, when it fired the unarmed test missile in January.

A defence source close to the Mr Shapps insisted the Trident "could absolutely fire in a real world situation" if it needed to.

"The issue that occurred during the test was specific to the event and would not have occurred during a live armed fire," the source said.

it's round, like always
