It genuinely wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't even dead and is now living on an island somewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google "Epstein wheeled in" and you'll get a picture of him on a stretcher, and he doesn't look that much alive any longer. Scandalous to allow him to kill himself on suicide watch, if that's what really happened. Then again, he felt threatened, so unbelievable that there weren't any appropriate measures taken to protect him from other harm: https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/us-news/jeffrey-epstein-told-jail-guards-18894171 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davieG Posted 14 August 2019 Share Posted 14 August 2019 New 50% off 16-17 railcard on sale next week 8 hours ago A new railcard offering half-price fares for 16 and 17-year-olds, aimed at those who travel to school or college by train, goes on sale on 20 August. The Department for Transport has announced that the 16-17 Saver card will cost £30 a year. It can be used on standard class journeys originating in England and Wales, and is valid for season tickets. The announcement comes on the day commuters will learn of next year's price rises for regulated fares. These fares - which include season tickets - are pegged to July's Retail Prices Index (RPI) measure of inflation announced on Wednesday. Independent transport watchdog, Transport Focus said: "It would be better if this card also covered the entire sixth form period. As it stands students turning 18 early in their second year of studies will lose this valuable discount." How the 16-17 Saver will work An estimated 1.2 million teenagers will be eligible for the new card, which will go on sale at 09:00 BST on 20 August. The card will cost £30, can be bought online via a dedicated website, and will be valid for tickets from 2 September. It will be available as a card or in a digital format. It can be used for discounts on journeys in England and Wales, and into Scotland, but not on ScotRail or the Caledonian Sleeper. In many parts of the country, local authorities already subsidise fares for this age group, so it is not entirely clear how much more the new card will save holders. The existing 16-25 Railcard offers one third off many fares, including off-peak and anytime tickets, for anyone in the age group or in full-time education. However, unlike the new card, this is primarily aimed at leisure travel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC Prussian Posted 15 August 2019 Share Posted 15 August 2019 Greta Thunberg's voyage to the US by boat isn't as eco-friendly as some might want to make it out to be: Four to five people are necessary to be flown to the US in order to take Thunberg back to Europe on the yacht after the UN summit, and one crew member currently on board will fly back to Europe after the first trip. Plus all the people who drove to Plymouth by car just to see her take off. Yep, very considerate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's just being used as a pawn by people much politically higher up than her, I'd even go as far as to say it's child abuse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the situation, IMO. In this case, this is all much more about belittling Miss Thunberg because of wanting their own sense of power rather than any legitimate concern about the environment - if someone actually supplied legit scientific data saying that the the message she is trying to deliver isn't necessary then maybe it's more likely that you're right. 31 minutes ago, Leicester_Loyal said: She's just being used as a pawn by people much politically higher up than her, I'd even go as far as to say it's child abuse.
