Why are they worried? If it was okay for her to be a Bishop (which it clearly is) why would it be a problem if Cherry's an Archbishop?

The first issue of The Sun, published in London, Thursday 1st Jan 1801
Tricky but not insurmountable - there are already planning rules with a geographical limit, e.g. 'affordable' housing must go to 'local' workers (within or close to the county). Extend the idea to house purchase. I think Jersey also has tight rules on who can buy.
Let's go for the full set, Cymru and Scotland leaving the UK too.
Surely everyone knows that every proper "samurai" sword is hand-forged and quenched in blood?
They do the same in Machynlleth
" the lenders are clear that they will need a "regulatory reset" which specifies new and less onerous targets on pollution and leakage than the company tried and failed to hit in the past." "tried" doing a lot of heavy lifting there. Maybe if they'd spent the divi payouts on repairs & upgrades?
Interesting to compare with the very limited measures being adopted in Cymru to tackle the same problem, basically an option to triple council tax on holiday homes (excludes genuine commercial lets which support local economy), and restrict 'change of use' to a holiday home.
How about, & this is just a wild, off-the-top-of-my-head crazy idea...how about the UK Government introduce 'sanctions' against Russia? You know, seal off all contact, movement & trade with Russia? Freeze the assets of all Russian citizens, & deport them (unless they claim asylum). Oh, & Israel too
The latest update from Mo @helpcatsmsallam.bsky.social Things are getting progressively worse in Gaza City. Can you spare a little to help him buy food for the cats? paypal.me/animalrescue703 or GoFundMe gofund.me/da7a14c4 Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
Does it involve UK leaving the ECHR?
There are none, sadly. Because the US is a big, heavily armed, bully that ignores international law, and no other country is willing to call them out or bring them to justice for their criminal behaviour. Even the 'good' ones are pretty bad (Biden/genocide in Gaza etc)
Pah! Those are just boring facts. No-one* wants boring facts. * no-one meaning newspaper and BBC new editors
Yet Starmer and Co are still trying to persuade Refuckers to vote Labour by offering to burn anyone with a brown skin at the stake. Someone ought to explain to them that that is unlikely to appeal to his existing voting base. And Refuckers will never vote Labour
Attacking ships on the high seas is piracy. Any country can prosecute pirates, doesn't have to be the ICC.
Doesn't matter. Every country has jurisdiction and the power to try pirates.
It's called 'Piracy' and the culprits can be prosecuted in every country on Earth. In the best ones their bodies are hung in chains at the dockside.
Once Flamingo is fully operational, military and infrastructure targets throughout Russia will be in range of Ukrainian attack. No corner of Russia will be safe. Schools, hospitals and apartments will still be safe, of course.
Don't they just! One of my favourites was a local man who cut his throat with a pen-knife in a bedroom in a pub, and it was only noticed when the people downstairs in the bar saw blood dripping through the ceiling!
That must take them up to 7 or 8 consultants then?
"Oil shipments decreased 4.9% due to refinery maintenance issues" To be fair, I'm not sure that "Big drone landing on the Crude Distillation Unit" counts as a 'maintenance issue'
I have a talk I do called "'Orrible Murders" which looks at how far-away Cardiganshire was reported in the English newspapers in C19. Murders, suicides, tragic deaths, storms, 2-headed calves etc. Very popular!
Won't navigation be rather tricky if there's no West?
#Radio3 #Proms now broadcasting something called Breathing Forests - Concerto by Gabriella Smith. If I was in the audience I'd want my money back. Absolutely god-awful cacophony. Now listening to an earlier Prom instead
Is there a context for the picture, then?
And Trump and his pedo pals will do their best to get the rate for 12-14 year olds back over 100

Presumably in the absence of Pink Himalayan rock-salt, Mead Hall chef decided to improvise with Himalayan balsam, and distilled some sort of fluid from it? Quite appropriate as Himalayan Balsam is invasive and unpopular, but takes control wherever it goes.
Key question: what are the 'Labour' government hoping/planning to do that would be blocked by the ECHR? Which of our rights do they want to abolish? Particularly odd as the way that e.g. Article 8 (right to privacy & family life) is written the para 2 exemptions let govt do what they want anyway
Jack Straw - a Red Tory 'lawyer' who wanted to remove jury trials, bought in RIPA, and was praised by Thatcher. With a history like that, I'm surprised Starmer hasn't given him a peerage and made him Deputy PM As a bonus he apparently believes in witchcraft.
Along with his 273 brothers, 97 wives, 416 children and his pet kittens who he was using as a human shield.
Perhaps, Mr Sankey, we would better understand the rhythm of your proposed new Shake'n'Vac jingle if you were to demonstrate it with the tambourine which I see you have hanging conveniently on your wall.
Well your Honour, it was like this: I looked at 90 porn sites to test the new age-verification law. How was I to know that 'sexyteens.xxx' was actually a front for Palestine Action?
But, but, the Yanquis have just told Ukraine not to attack deep into Ruzzia, no?
They didn't take a resident barber as a passenger , then?
Judging by the racist twat's rowing motions he seems to assume they rowed from the Philippines in a small boat. Surely these are people we want. Guaranteed Olympic glory in the rowing.
Arrest them

Spot on. None of it is 'intelligence'. The intelligence part is contributed by the human using the tool
That's the racist Katter with a Lebanese grandfather, Yes?
Exactly. It's a tool, to be used by people. One of my favourite non-genAI use cases is OCR. AI-based tools are much better at AI than 'traditional' OCR, particularly with degraded images (or even some handwriting). But they still make mistakes, so a human should proof read the output.
How effective are they at reducing heart failure probability for non-obese type 2 diabetics? Should low dose be automatic treatment? Like metformin?
Hence the point made by the authors: this is a tool that helps human reviewers. And it's a good example of the positive uses of pattern-recognising AI (can be very useful) as opposed to generative AI (basically a crock of poo)
I've been a fan of Paddington since before he was rich and famous...
How about starting with some serious sanctions on Russia? I mean actual, total, complete sanctions, none of this "banning Putin's 'daughter' from Harrods" rubbish. Seal Russia off. No imports, no exports, no communications. No shipping, no flights.
So it could be legit, but misused?
"Is Farage dead yet?"
What is the source of this? I suspect the estates of Michael Bond and Peggy Fortnum, plus R W Alley, the recent illustrator can sue for breach of copyright and receive large damages.
Probably blue sky is the best place to start.There must be a list of Romantic posts who do stand-up.
I assume that's an AI-generated Mormon family? Two wives and four kids?
...and all their household servants as well - so the entire Cabinet and every Republican in Congress.
Chinese firework manufacturer: "Health and Safety, yeah, I heard something about that"
Because 'Murica?
Have you checked for doors in the back of the wardrobes?
I'll just give myself a "Tsk Tsk" now to save time.
Dear Jennie, This is the joy of private health and unfettered monopoly capitalism. I thought the Daily Heil approved of that? Vote Tory, Refuck or Labour and that's what we'll get.
Reminds me of a Mastermind tale. Contestant applied with some seriously obscure specialist subject. So they contact the world authority and asked him to set the questions. He had to regretfully decline as he was the contestant.
Let's all pray for strong winds and dry weather!
And bear in mind that Putin is targeting civilians with missiles, it's a miracle that it's only 0.3%. We KNOW that Israel is committing genocide. Why will none of our governments actually DO anything about it? Why hasn't Israel been invaded and the IDF exterminated?
"Why are Israel’s largest arms firm and a company mired in a corruption scandal even being considered for training British troops?" Errrrm....you've not been reading the news for the last few decades? UK has a #Zionist PM and a Cabinet heavily funded by Zionists.
And yet silence on the same for Palestine. If Starmer genuinely believes ‘senseless’ attacks are plain wrong then he should stop arming Israel.
Yes, and...? What have they actually DONE to stop it? They've WARNED that it's illegal? Send in f*cking naval forces to deliver aid to the beaches.
I spend a lot of time wading through the LLGC online newspapers. We tend to be aware of the big disasters - Senghenydd, Parc Slip etc, but it's shocking to read the weekly toll of 'minor' accidents in the pits and factories. 2 killed here, three there, a child crippled by a train
The UK has zero constitutional constraints on a government, it's even worse than the USA. This needs to be pre-empted by deporting Farridge and all his supporters to the Falklands in chains before the next election. It may not be legal, but that doesn't matter.
So Labour being very right wing has a long history?
How long are actual papers/presentations expected to be?
Can't help with the specific question, but I found some fascinating memoirs from military nurses in WW1 on Project Gutenberg. Well worth a read, and should maybe be included in any work on the genre. Preceded by Betsi Cadwaladr's memoirs (nurse in the Crimea) - The Autobiography of Elizabeth Davies
then add 8oz of SR flour and 4 fl oz of milk...
Mae pobl sy'n dangos cefnogaeth i Balesteina yn cael eu harestio fel terfysgwyr ond rydych yn hapus i wneud bargeinion gyda'r Taliban a Netanyahu. Da iawn i'r Blaid Lafur am ei gwneud hi'n hollol glir (eto) ble rydych chi'n sefyll. Ai gwaed sy'n gwneud y rhoséd yn goch?
Paent coch! Terfysgaeth!
Farridge is in the news again - god knows why. In other news I have a plan to forcibly deport Farridge and all Refucker voters and supporters to the Falklands, and lay a minefield all around the islands. It's not actually legal or rooted in reality, but hey what the heck? Let's do it!
They have this bizarre idea that if they're nice to them and let them run wild and burn refugees to death then the Fascists will vote Labour. Those people will never vote for a party with 'Labour' in the name, even if they start using burning refugees as replacement street lighting.
So which trump donor owns a black paint factory?
... Yet.
Exactly. A nice bit of fictional nordic noir is relaxing, unlike real nasty crime. Just wish Channel 4 would stop suggesting I'd like some horrible true crime just because I watched Astrid et Raphaelle.
One of the things I knew I wanted to do with this tour was to make it accessible, so I'm delighted we've got a hybrid event that can be streamed anywhere in the world! Join in from wherever you are, or come see us in Edinburgh! Tickets available here! 👉 www.theportobellobookshop.com/978183726328...
No one dares explain that to him.
How is it that people spying for the enemy in wartime, passing on information that results in people being killed, gets away with 15 years, and not whole-life? Most countries would hang or shoot them.
Exactly. There is a world of difference between the nationalism of the SNP & Plaid Cymru and the Faragist fascists. We aren't saying we're better than other countries, merely a bit different, and we demand the right to make our own decisions and run our own lives., and we welcome refugees!
I'm sure the overall markets are madness. If the 50% tariff is on the price of the imported beans, then that translates to several dollars/lb on the beans, but shouldn't mean 50% extra on the roasted product on the shelf. Raw materials, it should be maybe +15c/cup on a Starbucks. Bet it's more!
Very interesting, and will obviously have a large price impact on someone buying a pound of roasted Brazilian beans for home use. But the cost of the actual coffee beans is a tiny fraction of the price of a cup of coffee in a coffee shop - even a 50% tariff only adds a few cents to the price.
And going off at a slight tangent, while we're in historical mode and talking about 'Curry', even if it's not from East Anglia. This from the Limerick Chronicle in 1809
Advert for someone making and selling curry powder in Gloucester. From 'The Cambrian' in 1804
Not in Cymru.
"the soul travels at the speed of a trotting camel" How long until 'home' changes to be the other end of the journey? I moved a lot as a child (14 times!) but never lived in Cymru. Mam was from Glamorgan, though, and it was strange that I always thought of Cymru as 'home'. 33 years here now!
I have a flagpole in my garden. For some time past it has been flying the flag of Palestine. Prior to that it's had Y Ddraig Goch, 'Yes Cymru', Ukraine and Yes Scotland. The Palestinian flag needs replacing as the weather has taken a toll.
Maud, I appreciate that you prefer painting landscapes to animals, but don't you think strangling poor Bouncer was a bit much just to keep him out of your picture? #GirlsOwnCC
You've been to the Cinema & Richard Booth's bookshops in Hay on Wye, haven't you?
"is your father the father of your child?" maybe?
Mae'r newyn yn real iawn. Celwydd yw ei wadu.
Could be a sales opportunity there? "Feed the birds, tuppence a bag..."
A big plus with Flamingo is that (by utilising 'unconventional' launch sites) they can reach virtually every inch of Russia, including all those factories a long way from UKR, & which aren't well defended as a result. How much can Russia afford on defending EVERY factory, port, airfield & rail line?
I love them. I'd love to wear one. Although I'm not sure about the practicality of wearing white linen for work in the days before washing machines! But hey, HE didn't do the washing!
Simply a question, not a suggestion.
Are you sure it's a smock? Looks more like a sacking apron.
"Stop hitting my fist with your face", but with 500kg bombs.
Entirely deliberate. Entirely preventable. Entirely illegal. What will it take for the UK Labour Government to end all arms sales to Israel and to impose sanctions? Why won’t the Welsh Labour Government call on them to do so?
