What's the thread opinion on TUSC? They are running for a couple of things in my area and I'm debating whether to vote for them or the Greens.

goddamnedtwisto posted:However this time they've decided to divvy it up geographically, with one desk handling the entire estate that the station is in the middle of, and another desk handling all of the new developments around it, which you *might* be able to justify by saying there's roughly the same amount of houses, but there's a *very* different population both numerically and socially. This meant all the "luxury flat" lot got waved straight in, while a 20-person queue took half an hour to shuffle in. My local polling place also has two subsections, but they are always just divided by street name - those starting A-L on the left, and M-Z on the right.

Aramoro posted:Crushing Lib Dem victory in Scotland so far. No exit polls so going to extrapolate from here and say Lib Dem majority. Interesting result though in Banffshire and Buchan Coast which is more rural - SNP hold, but down 10% with CON up 10%, resulting in a 700-vote majority for the SNP (or 2.3%).

forkboy84 posted:Yeah, but it's also worth looking at the UK-wide elections since 2016. The Tories won the closest equivalent constituency in 2017 & held it in 2019. The first time they'd won an MP in Banff & Buchan since 1987. It's the strongest pro-Brexit constituency in Scotland, Fraserburgh & Peterhead are basically the centre of Scottish North Sea fishing. So while it is very narrow but I wouldn't expect that swing to hold in many other places. That's good, thanks for the clarification.

How does that work exactly - the earlier article said that the Scotland police isn't working with the Home Office (e: regarding these removals), so would they even have the authority to release the deportees?

The Perfect Element posted:It was mainly because my wife works from home as well, for a charity, and she's super busy for eight hours per day doing all sorts of worthy things, so I just felt a bit ashamed of myself. The pro move here would be to start taking on part of your wife's job and then you both take half the day off

Netflix and Amazon are creating tons of B-movies for their own platforms though, as in 'medium budget standalone films'. Granted most of these aren't very good but hey

blunt posted:Does anybody know what the deal is re: Pfizer/AstraZenica when booking these - does it give you any indication when booking of which is available, or do you just find out when you show up to your appointment? It doesn't tell you when you book an appointment (at least it didn't in my area). If you have a medical reason for requiring a specific vaccine type, you'll need to go through your GP, I believe.

jaete posted:Ah yeah that's right, the Numenoreans "descended from superior stock" or some such bollocks and as a result would live to 300-400 years old. But over time their blood was mingled with lesser men and blah blah, Aragorn was still in good middle-aged shape at 85 or so (during the books/films) but would rapidly get old already at like 120 or something and die Not so much superior human stock but the first Numenorean king was half-Elvish.

BalloonFish posted:I have also heard this exact example, but also in an educational context. Apparently in Yorkshire 'while' can mean 'until' in certain contexts (to do with an old ambiguity in English between process and result). Apparently you can find 'until' used where we would use 'while' in the King James Bible. This is kind of true for computery language as well, where the while statement in Python means 'do this and keep doing it until conditions change'
