No photo unfortunately but I spotted a MK1 (1983-1992) Nissan Micra yesterday, definitely one for the Festival of the Unexceptional.

Heading into full crayonista mode here, if the trial was a roaring success, funding was approved, and signalling issues were resolved, would it be theoretically possible to run both an all day half hourly WMT service to Bewdley (ie an extension of the current Kidderminster services) alongside a...

Fair point :lol: I'll rephrase that to either competent or charismatic. 1784901947 Genuinely surprised her favourabilty is going up. On a number of occasions she's demonstrated an inability to read the room, the one that sticks in my mind is when in the early stages of Trump and Netanyahu's...

One of the big positives to take from that graph is their decline isn't merely down to them losing support to the right. Even the combined Reform/Restore polling is still notably lower than peak Reform.

Same reason any other PM calls an early election, they think they will win. I don't see it happening this year but next year is a possibility. I firmly believe Reform have peaked in terms of polling and expect to see their support slowly ebbing away. That just leaves the Tories led by the...

I suspect there will be another announcement tomorrow, with the rate of the drip feed slowing down to one or two per week from next week. There's sound logic in a comms strategy of utterly dominating the headlines with multiple talking points in at least the first week of his premiership.

I remember that. The strangest part of that proposal was that the service would terminate at a new safari park station rather than just call there and carry on a mile further to Bewdley.

As far as BAE are concerned, that aspect wouldn't make any difference. If the carriers had been fitted with catapaults they would still operate F-35s just a different variant, F-35Cs as opposed to F-35Bs.

Agree, although the old pre-rebuild New Street would definitely have qualified, the majority of passengers entered/exited the station via the Pallasades shopping centre.

Were there ever any services which served both stations though?

£1,593 at today's prices acording to the BoE inflation calculator, so another threefold increase wouldn't be a bad idea

I had one at a pub in Llandudno last summer, first time I'd seen one on a menu for years.

That's the path we seem to be heading towards at the moment, and such a split would harm FIFA far more than UEFA. In order to head off that possibility and placate an increasingly aggravated UEFA, I've a feeling FIFA will award a significant chunk of the additional world cup spots to Europe...

As a cheap publicity stunt there is a certain logic to it, keeps Farage in the headlines at no risk to himself, as in a conventional by-election it's a safe Reform seat. His mistake was in not considering the dual possibilities of the other parties refusing to play along with his games, and...

That would never happen though. There will always be minor political parties and independents standing at by-elections, especially one as high profile as this.

Comedy gold from the most unlikely source imaginable, Rachel Reeves: [Image Description - Screenshot of a tweet from Rachel Reeves quoted below]

Never underestimate the British sense of humour. In any case, any vote for a candidate who isn't either the incumbent or has held a political office previously is a vote for the unknown to a degree, you don't know if they'll be a good MP until they're elected. Also Count Binface is up against...

As pointed out by a comment from Chris Mason on the BBC news site however, there is a precedent for this: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cn0v9l9x0g8t

My thoughts exactly when I read the story, he's jumping before he's pushed.

Possibly, but from the point of view of non-European players I don't think that'd be that much of a disincentive. This site suggests there are 35 professional leagues in Europe, many of which consist of multiple divisions ,so plenty of options for a professional football career. One thing FIFA...
