Al Gore predicts the North Pole will be "ice free" in the summer "within 5 to 7 years"

@randomdorman @Sam_Dumitriu My tip does the same but they rarely bother actually checking anymore. You just drive in and unload

@Sam_Dumitriu My local council now also requires pre-booking for residents to use its recycling centre. Apparently ANPR wasn’t enough. It’s faffy, and like a ghost town now. Where do they think all of that waste is going?

Why does the UK have such a bad fly-tipping problem?
In the Guardian, George Monbiot blames deregulation and not enough spending on enforcement.
To me, the cause is obvious. Britain has the highest landfill tax in Europe.
The returns to flytipping are just higher here.

@H4ryB @Sam_Dumitriu @mattwridley Got anything to back up the assertion that "most are caught on camera"? Not many cameras in farmer's fields or country lanes
English
@Sam_Dumitriu @mattwridley Simple Suggestion: any vehicle filmed involved in fly tipping can be impounded and held until all the clean up and damages are paid. Most of these big fly tips are caught on camera but get stuck in long legal actions. The vehicles are the easiest route

Now that I'm in the demographic myself, I'm completely bewildered by the popularity of Reform among over 65s. How can rapidly ageing ex-punk rockers and mods (or even hippies, for that matter) bring themselves to vote for Farage?

Julian Holloway was 23 when he played Major Shorthouse in Carry on up the Khyber.

@TrueNerth @jroebuck @anon_opin Same factory. Same staff. Same machines. Different ingredients.
I know people that work at the factory.

@simonharley Personally I think it was when the Royal Tournament was cancelled

When the Royal Navy killed Oliver Reed.
Mr. Mike@mrmikeMTL
Can anyone pin-point the exact moment where everything in society just got substantially worse???

@anon_opin Particular breeds of chicken. But yeah, an Aldi chicken is literally the same as a Tesco one
English
@anon_opin So here's the thing. I've been to meat processing plants for my work and let's take chicken. Your standard roast chickens are identical for all the major supermarkets and are just given different labels. However, the upmarket ones like M&S come from specialist farms or are...

@AposematicHate @jroebuck @anon_opin This is nonsense. I'm a fire risk assessor and have visited many food production sites making products for all the major supermarkets. The M&S lines are separate lines and M&S carries out frequent inspections and are notoriously finicky and particular about their products
English
@jroebuck @anon_opin M&S used Tesco suppliers. It is basically just a tart in a fur coat with no knickers.
Waitrose outranks them as actually holds a royal warrant.
The factory that makes pizzas for M&S also makes them for Tesco and ALDI.

Cool. So you'll be officially apologising to the tens of thousands of people you harassed and intimidated with your pointless, time wasting policy of malicious social busybodying?

Police time will no longer be wasted investigating legal social media posts, freeing up officers to patrol the streets and tackle real crime. By scrapping Non‑Crime Hate Incidents, we are balancing the protection of vulnerable communities while respecting free speech.

@HTCounter But how do you assess that? Social media is cultivated and algorithms are primed for negativity.

More & more I am convinced these people do not watch Star Trek. They remember it from childhood. This era doesn't feel the same (because it can't) & they can't process it. They feel some hurt that doesn't exist anywhere but in their mind & they lash out on a keyboard and mic

Film reviewer Jeremy Jahns on Alex Kurtzman's Star Trek: "To be fair it is difficult to find any modern sci-fi that wasn't influenced by Star Trek in some way. The one exception being modern Star Trek." Is he right?

There are only five Star Trek series.
