The thing about Starmer not wanting to "put Labour's control of Greater Manchester at any risk" is, Manchester is the safest Labour city you could ask for, and the only threat to that is that everyone here thinks Keir Starmer is a tit

Ok, chess people are going to have to explain why these two tactics are called, respectively, "the Trojan horse" and "the Greek gift"

Yeah this is a great analogy if you want your product to be viewed as a cumbersome novelty filled with features barely anyone uses.
yeah, just out of interest, how many people choose the pen on the right for real work or art? See a lot of them in professional workplaces, do you?

You can tell Trump is serious about the Greenland thing because normally he reserves the 10% tariff punishment for such notable political enemies as literally every country in the world and/or otherwise-uninhabited penguin islands

I'm Team Brendel on this one. Jeopardy is a joke. Imagine a quiz where the host asked you "who is Henry Moore" and you were expected to answer "he once said, 'a hole can have as much meaning as a solid mass'." It would be nonsense.

I'm not necessarily against this proposal, but for Christ's sake start enforcing traffic laws against already-qualified drivers. There's no hoop you can make a teenager jump through that will stop them developing bad habits when you spend the next 40 years telling them they can do anything they want
Learner drivers may have to wait six months before taking test
Proposed changes by the government may also include lower drink-driving limits for novice motorists.
