@Sargon_of_Akkad Wrong about the prequels, and now you are wrong about Pirates of the Caribbean. Sad!

Just tried to watch Pirates of the Carribean Dead Man's Chest. What an awful attempt at a story, complete caricature of the characters, and absurd action set pieces. What on earth were they thinking.

🇬🇧 Britain doesn't have a 'wealth tax.'
And campaigners are demanding one. But it raises an obvious question.
Why, then, does the UK raise more revenue from wealth than any other OECD country, including those that have a wealth tax?

@maxtempers I really don't understand this ridiculous argument. I always thought the mantra was "equal pay for equal work". Well, it's not the same work, is it?

The largest supermarket in Britain, that operates on razor-thin margins, is about to be crushed for the crime of paying different jobs different salaries, while our legislature shrugs.
How dare they suggest that “so-called market rates” can exist in Soviet Britain.

@owenjonesjourno This is just asinine. No, kicking someone in the head isn't protocol. Of course it isn't. But in the moment, the officers had to subdue the threat. They took the actions they thought were necessary. That should be the end of it.
English
Hold on - what?
If police officers think someone might be carrying explosives, protocol is to kick them in the head repeatedly like this?
Is that actual police protocol?
If so, how is it a wise police protocol?
Can someone explain the reasoning?

.@KamaliMelbourne: 'The video of the Golders Green terror attack arrest shows the officers kicking this individual in the head. Is that appropriate force to use?' Met Police Commissioner: "In most situations it wouldn't be reasonable, but in that situation it was reasonable."

I don’t drink, but I want MPs to drink because it evokes a better time, and perhaps there’s even a causal relationship there.
Only caveats are it must be:
-men only
-spirits only (decanted from special bottle)

This is really simple - women don't process words as having meanings
"Low-carbon energy" is *good*
"Nuclear power" is *bad*
Therefore
Nuclear power is not low-carbon because bad is not good
Tom Chivers@TomChivers
This seems really bad and I don't know what to do about it: not so much the differences in political attitudes, that's fine, but there's a strong gender divide in belief on straightforward factual questions like "is nuclear energy low-carbon?" yougov.com/en-gb/articles…

@PolitlcsUK @DailyMail So you are telling me that this decision was not made because of a sincere belief that teenagers should be voting, but instead a tactical move to secure more votes? Wow unbelievable.

@HistoryBro1 You could also think about it as a hot girl in a nightclub. She doesn't have a purse or even pockets, she still gets drinks all night despite having no money. Its just the natural flow of things and couldn't be otherwise.

🚨 NEW: Keir Starmer says he can win the next general election for Labour
"I think we can... it’s likely to be Labour versus Reform. An election where the defining question is, what is it to be British?"

There's winning and then that's Trump winning
