Yeah, I would have thought it was obvious at a terminus.

The minimum required by law is 3rd party insurance.
If i crash into your car with my car, completely writing off your car, and it’s totally my fault…. you’re going to need a new car.
Who’s paying for that? I’m not, I’m doing a runner.

I guess at a terminal station it’s easy, but most stations aren’t.

That could be either end.

That could be either end though.

I did not know that.

The sympathy goes on for the best part of a year, in my experience.

Yes, and his followers are also racist.

Got to get the beer out somehow though?
February 6, 2026 at 12:08 PM
Presumably you worked jn a pub and pissed in the cask or something….. not every pub is like that.
A keg isn’t sealed, so you only drink from bottles?
February 6, 2026 at 11:18 AM
Nah. I think they taste better than lager and are often less fizzy, certainly if they are cask conditioned.
February 6, 2026 at 11:07 AM
Yes I suppose so. Who has time for all that? Butchers would shut at 3 or 4 pm, I work until five 🤷‍♂️
There’s a small window on Saturday morning when a. I’m not working and b. those shops are open…

I mean, I’m in the supermarket to get everything else anyway, it’s not like I make a special trip to get there.
Plastic is much lighter than glass so uses less energy to transport.

Did a woman make an allegation of rape? If so, now this man has been acquitted, who did it?

Branson was happy to overlook Epstein’s horrible crimes (soliciting sex from a 14 year old) because he was rich….

It’s too late for Branson to worry about his image now.
January 31, 2026 at 9:31 PM
Exactly. And they would have got away with it if it wasn’t for those pesky kids!
January 31, 2026 at 8:04 PM
But no. Branson, Prince Andrew, Mandleson and others were clearly not bothered by his behaviour, and carried on doing business with him.
No conscience at all.

There’s no motivation for him to change his behaviour.

One way of keeping people honest is transparency… “if people find out I’ll be finished, I’ll lose my customers and investors”

If the rich and powerful dropped him like a hot potato at the first allegations, maybe he stops, maybe he loses money, actually suffers a bit.

Problem is this Labour government have tried to steal some Reform/Tory policies to placate them…. it won’t work.
Reform voters will ignore Labour’s hard line on immigration because they are told that Starmer is soft.
January 31, 2026 at 1:55 PM
It doesn’t make those friends of his peadophiles, but clearly they don’t have a problem with what Epstein was up to.
January 31, 2026 at 1:50 PM
Epstein pleaded guilty to a state charge of procuring for prostitution a girl below age 18 on the 30th June, 2008.
In January 2011 he appealed against his status as a "level three" (high risk of repeat offense) sex offender in New York State. He lost.

Yet people still did “business” with him.

Rolls Royce (aero engines) was a successful privatisation.
But then that was never a public service like water or power.
January 31, 2026 at 8:14 AM
Yeah. but they didn’t get shite after privatisation, they go shite because they couldn’t handle the competition from Virgin for long haul and the “low cost” airlines for short haul.
