What is the point of @StarbucksUK advertising pike place and filter coffee when none of the stores seem to have it available.

All kicking off at @thenec today ... one woman with a hand painted "no arms sales at the NEC" sign. Took four police officers and six NEC security staff to contain it. I think carrying her out brought more attention. #streisandeffect #gunshow

I have an Irish passport but my partner has a British passport. Going to get a relaxing coffee whilst he's queueing with the Brits is the part of the holiday I look forward to the most.

Fascinating read explaining how people react in these situations.

The Station Nightclub fire happened in 2003. No smartphones. No Instagram. 100 people still died because they stood watching the flames, thinking it was part of the show. I've retrofitted fire safety for some of the largest property portfolios in the UK post-grenfell. You are confusing stupidity with biology, physics, and catastrophic design failures. Here is the actual science of what you are watching: 1. When the music keeps playing and staff don't panic, the human brain overrides flight instincts to fit the threat into a normal context. This is called normalcy bias. These kids froze to process conflicting social cues, not to post for likes. They were likely already filming. They were also likely drunk. 2. We explicitly design buildings to account for this hesitation (pre-movement time). Fire safety codes assume people will wait before running. In a compliant building, you can assume up to a minute or two before egress commences. Sprinklers and detection systems are designed specifically to buy that time. 3. The reason the time buffer didn't exist here is the material. That ceiling is polyurethane foam. It doesn't burn linearly; it hits flashover (1,100°F) in under 90 seconds. It's essentially solid gasoline. The room would have exploded for all intents and purposes. Way before anyone could reasonably evacuate. 4. We calculate exit widths based on how many people can physically pass through a door per minute (flow rate) versus how fast a fire spreads. With foam fires, the available safe egress time drops to almost zero. Even if they had reacted instantly, the crowd density would have choked the exits before the room cleared. 5. In any normal building fire, especially one that starts off small, you expect a responsible adult to put it out, or sprinklers to do the same. When there's a pan fire in a restaurant, you don't run out in case the entire building suddenly explodes. No reasonable person should have expected this unless they were the owner and knew how the building was designed. Those poor teenagers likely passed out from smoke inhalation soon after this video. If they didn't, they would have been caught in a catastrophic explosion as they crammed into the single tiny exit. They didn't die because of Instagram. They died because the physics of the fire moved faster than human bodies can physically squeeze through a door, and a catastrophic disregard of safe design principles meant they never stood a chance.

That there is a whole subsection of the hot sauce industry who's only reason to exist is to indulge the need for some men - because it's always men - to prove their manliness by basically eating napalm is just bizarre.

I will not be supporting this. Tony Blair has been pushing this agenda for more than two decades, always using one excuse or another to justify it. It's never been fully implemented - and we must make sure it's stopped this time too.
