Hardle π¦πͺ #1306 4/8 One of the easier words today. π©β¬π¨β¬π© π©β¬β¬π©π© π©π¨π¨π©π© π©π©π©π©π© hardle.herokuapp.com

The conventional Hardle that most people play has only eight guesses rather than ten and can be found at hardle.herokoapp.com. Once you get the hang of this game, you should find you get the word in well under eight goes every time. I have never bombed out on Hardle in over three hundred games.

Youβre more than welcome. I find that Septle and Bonus, with seven and six letters in them, have more interesting words than Wordle. The feature that I most like is the facility to place letters in random squares to get a feel of the word rather than having to place them in order from left to right.

Starmer needs to acknowledge the considerable damage that Brexit is having on the UK economy and also the meteoric rise of Reform UK in the polls. Bringing in PR would go a considerable way towards negating the dreadful prospect of this party ever securing a working majority at the next election.
Jeremy Alexander (@tigerroll.bsky.social) reply parent
No, certainly not, but the way that Starmer is governing and his refusal to bring in PR or consider rejoining the Single Market or Customs Union will only help ensure that a Farage government becomes a real possibility. I agree that the Tories are toast but Starmer is an awfully weak politician.
