I'm one of those immigrants in the UK. Let me tell you about the nice little cul de sac where I live. My neighbors are from all over (Korea, Eastern Europe, Africa, India). In fact, I think most of the residents here are immigrants. They are very nice and law abiding.
We should deport Reform.

My wife received a penalty during a journey tonight on @westmidrailway.bsky.social.
She was travelling back from visiting her mum, who wad sadly widowed yesterday. Understandably, she was emotionally distressed and in that state forgot to purchase a ticket for the final leg of her return journey.

So, right now, the only reliable way to diagnose endometriosis is with exploratory surgery. But finally, real scientists (instead of male scientists), are on the job & of course they’ve identified multiple markers in menstrual blood that point to noninvasive testing.

Farage got called a 'Putin-loving free-speech imposter' in Congress
Why can't Labour do this instead of getting all weird about flags while pretending their houses are shrines to the Jubilee?
Instead they fan Farage's flames, turn up the dial on racism & embolden his base while repulsing their own.

I can't be the only British person depressed at being born in a country where, if you see the country's flag everywhere, you know with certainty they were put there by absolute arseholes who might attack you and who definitely mean harm, whereas in Scandinavian countries it's a +nice+ thing.
In the current context, sticking up flags everywhere is a blatant attempt to intimidate and exclude, I don’t see what there is to argue about

A lot gigs you can get away with making up any old rubbish up for the solo when you're performing a cover, but for some songs the solo is so ingrained in the public's psyche that you have to try and play it like the record - Bohemian Rhapsody being a classic example.
