You can get air fed suits for toxic environments. I have seen these used in car manufacturing. From accounts of the lads there, they were very heavy to work with.

We sold a double strollor in the mid nineties. I was at home alone when the girl turned up to buy it on her own. It was raining so she came in to look at it. I never really thought about it the time. I was just happy that something was not going to waste at the time.

Those Buggies cost an arm and a leg now.

No, I am saying that veering from the action of simply walking as you normally would is viewed with suspicion, because they have no idea where you have gone. Dropping further back and moving out of view, only to find you come back into view later on, can make somebody who feels threatened even more so. There is no correct action to alleviate the issue.

I should also that this is not a situation I find myself in these days. I don't work shifts anymore, so rarely find that I am walking home in the dark. It was something that was quite common in my younger days. Mainly due to where I lived at the time and the fact I was not a car driver.

~~He already knows the vote will pass.~~ This is just narrative to make it look like the Tories are unified and the infighting has stopped. The reality is that the factions, that were gunning for him, could not decide on who they wanted to replace him. This is nothing more than a stay until they can get themselves sorted out.

The ERG are pushing their version of a narrative by publicly stating that the bill should be pull for amendments. This is so they can say I told you so when it fails at a later date. There is nothing they can do to make the bill pass without breaking international laws or agreements. This specifically threatens the TCA with the EU. Who only happens to be our largest trading partner. When the bill gets to the Lords, they will reject it. It is not part of any manifesto they were voted in with.

Just don't put the pop corn away just yet.

I have seen a couple of girls looking stuck and helped them out. I made sure they took a picture of the reg and passed it on. To me it makes sense, increasing the chances of someone being found out makes them less likely to be a danger.

My pet hate is realising I am walking behind some girl who has started looking nervous. There is very little you can do to alleviate it. If you slow down it looks suspicious, and they don't want you near them so it is hard to walk past to get in front. It is a price most men face because of other people misgivings.

It is because funding prior to 2010 was drastically less than other areas. There is a need to let those deprived areas catch up.

The most deprived fifth of local authorities receive hourly resources that are 12% higher than areas in the most affluent fifth, after accounting for higher provider costs in London. This results from funding for deprivation, disability and additional language needs in the Early Years National Funding Formula, as well as the Early Years Pupil Premium and the Disability Access Fund.

I agree we should keep reminding people of what things these scum are up to. The last thing we need is complacency at the next GE. This is a problem that won't fix it self.

Pretty much been known for a while this. Tories will do what a Tory does. They do not care about the amount of asylum seekers enter the country. It is just a narrative to make those who are on the bottom feel better about the shit they are living with. The fact they can give contracts out to donors is just a bonus.

Welcome to the UK then.

We got a good deal to make up for the failings that the Maastricht treaty dealt the UK. To be the Leader of the EU you had to be a member of the Euro and also a member of the Schengen area. This left the UK at a huge disadvantage. We would not be allowed back into the EU unless we accepted both those conditions. This would mean we are not at a disadvantage anymore. We would be joining as equal members. We could even see a UK official in charge of the EU.

No one said there is a conspiracy. The BBC has blatant bias issues. What do you think the Lineker was about and the subsequent resignation that followed it. Bloody hell even Emily Maitlis took the effort to diss the BBC when she left.

The answer is very simple, work with the EU. It is what we did before we left. The numbers have gone up since then, it is bloody obvious going it alone is not helping.

 

Sunak is passing the buck to local councils.

 

Tories continuing with the scorched earth policy. This will push costs onto Labour when they come into power. Or criticism when they have to reverse this.

There is no appreciation of facilities to either remove or process this new waste segmentation. There is no budget being allocated to the plan as is indicated by the term "reasonable funding". It very much looks like we are going to see nothing but a gremlin approach to improving the state of the UK until these people are resigned to history.

 

If you have spare cash this Christmas, then this is a good place to put it.
