Bit unfortunate given the name of the current Monarch.

People banging on about Matcha as it's clearly the trendy thing currently. Tastes like you're eating soil.

Unfortunately ignorance is worn as a badge of honour amongst many.

And that's the point, we don't know. She could be dodgy a/f, used a crap conveyancer (if such a thing exists...) or done nothing wrong. Politics is very knee jerk and "sack them sack them sack them" rolls off the tongue so easily against politicians of parties people are partisan against. Just wait and find out instead of making wild assumptions about what's happening without knowing the details. If she did wrong, clearly she needs the boot given her role. If they dump her without a genuine reason, it just emboldens an extremely partisan media against Labour who will then just smear people knowing it's effective.

Don't think her paying three independent advisors who said it was fine makes it slightly mitigating to the other examples?

Not many of us were on the terraces in '58 old-dave

I'm not involved in this as not my investment style but good luck to you all. Only thing I'm getting involved with related to the governments procurement on titanium. Aerospace has really struggled in recent years as Russia is the main exporter of the stuff.

Stay single

Football kit they launched with the Union Jack on upside down looked decent though.

Residing memory of that game was a lad in front of me going red in the face and screaming "Warnock, die you old c***", then turning around to me very politely offering me a Haribo. I passed.

Sounds like envy politics...

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/sep/03/angela-rayner-admits-underpaying-stamp-duty-on-800000-seaside-flat Darren Jones' magical appointment to Deputy PM, but not definitely not Deputy PM, suddenly becomes clear.

Everyone I employ is on zero hours. I want it and the staff want it. If they abolish them,they're all getting dumped as the business won't function killing a cash cow for us all. Devil's in the detail so will see what genius idea Rayner can come up with on this one...

Boris' immigration figures are always worth reminding people about.

You could store water and do the electrolysis at a refuel station to prevent leaks or mitigate hazards. Same problem though, why bother putting the electricity to make Hydrogen, when you could just put the energy into the vehicle? You can do it for less energy if it's under massive pressure, but then you're causing different hazards and practical issues like storage of the Potassium Hydroxides at pressure (stay away from that if it goes pop). There are non electrolysis methods, but this generally involves breaking down hydrocarbons which again leads to the question as to why you wouldn't just use the fuel directly? My company did some work few years ago with an energy utility in using low demand energy periods to use high (coal/gas) and low (nuclear) quality power generation to create hydrogen on site when the energy costs are lower. This comes back to my original post on cogeneration (2nd order thermodynamic efficiency) to massively reduce the cost of producing it at the system levels. The sums ended with it being essentially cost neutral so it wasn't progressed. It also produced a headache where the license conditions for these sites forbid the generation and storage of hydrogen within the site boundaries, so it would have had to be located off site, under the regulation of the environment agency (different to the power stations) and would have been a nightmare. There's a clip I always see on social media of Joe Rogan talking about electrolysis to make drinking water. Neil deGrasse Tyson just keeps pointing out it's just a question of energy cost and is similar to the above. For most of the cases where the energy isn't doing the direct work, it's rarely worth it. If you can power it with renewables, the sums so start to work and that's what a lot of the "green hydrogen" focuses companies are looking at. But I still wouldn't expect it to power cars, probably ever, only really makes sense for powering big infrastructure facilities. I think battery technology has become more rapid and capable than we thought when hydrogen fuel cells were lauded as the future.

The window bag video

It's class, defo give it a bash.

Spouting absolute sh*te, so yeah seems back to normal.

Only dispute there's a difference between gesturing to slit throats, burning people alive or, in this case, the heinous crime of punching a hypothetical bloke in the balls.

Look up "Traditionally Handsome" in the dictionary and you'll see his face. Great signing.

It's not really either of those things. I mean technically it's the most abundant element in the universe, but it's not a natural resource to be extracted. Due to it's tiny mass, it's an absolute pig to store as it just leaks out of things. It's also manufactured mainly through electrolysis and therefore from a cogenerative second law perspective, cut out the middle man and use use the electrolysis energy directly as that's far more efficient.

Appreciate it's traditional attire, but doesn't help that Modi looks to use the same tailor as Blofeld.
