In Europe we have this thing called freedom of association. You are not only free to say what you like, you're free to choose who you say it to!

Same story with Greek. My local kebab shop has a sign that says "FRSP" (ΦΡΣΠ).

(at least it's actually run by people I assume are Greek or maybe Cypriot)

HOMER'S BRAIN: Money can be exchanged for goods and services.

These questions don't even ask about acceptance. It's entirely possible, based on this data, that none of these people would be angry (a VERY different response to "disappointed") and/or every one of them would be accepting.

(obviously that's not the case, but those aren't the questions they asked)

There is a Catfield in Norfolk.

Do I have to explain satire to you now?

Oh that's right, there was actually a reform in 2014 where they can be kicked out for non-attendance or crime. But there is no political accountability.

Not really relevant whether vehicles of this description actually exist. IF they do, they are not e-bikes and the Lord in question shouldn't be debating them in those terms.

That particular reform is in effect, but even the preamble to that act says it's only the first stage of expected reform. And some more reform has happened, but not enough.

1. 1960s, life peerages
2. 1990s, kicked out all but 92 hereditary peers
3. 2026, kicking them out too

Still unaccountabe

Is calling someone a "spammer" interfering with their ability to access aid? No.

Warning about OFAC? No also.
