Many countries already have criminal courts that don't use juries for certain types of case. It's not unusual, and it demonstrably doesn't result in the chaos described here

It's not a constructive platform though. That's what HoC os for

He's happiest moaning

"we're too reliant on gas"

But also, "we should extract more gas"

They did do something about it. They reduced fuel duty and convinced OPEC to release more oil

And it's causing panic because we're only just starting to recover from Brexit/COVID/Ukraine

Homes for 'young, working families' in Bradford approved A proposal for 53 houses close to Thornbury Medical Centre in Bradford is given the go-ahead.

Bradford council seem to be making the right decision for planning at the moment

This'll be about double the density of the surrounding sprawl, loads of facilities within walking distance, and nicely placed for busses into Bradford city centre, Leeds, Pudsey et al.

The United Kingdom, our once Great Ally, maybe the Greatest of them all, is
finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East.
That's OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don't need them any longer -- But we will
remember. We don't need people that join Wars after we've already won!

History lesson.

Our once great ally didn't come to our aid until 1917.

Our once great ally didn't come to our aid again until 1941.

"fossil fuel production"!?

Do they not know what "fossil" means!!?

That's literally what they're doing.

They regularly take out shadow fleet ships and oil and gas infrastructure, and recently started using their new flamingo drone that can penetrate deep into concrete structures over 1,000 miles into Russia

This is obviously futile

Everything released is copied immediately. They're just identifying the most incriminating documents

More likely would be that the US removed the top layer of the Iranian government, so they don't actually know what they've done with certainty

High capacity rails across Africa and to Spain, as well as the wonders it would do for the economy and daily life, would protect Europe from whatever nonsense the US next attempts in the Middle East

Economies aren't a zero sum game. Europe and Africa are stronger together

It literally all already exists! Obviously fossil fuel delivery is purely logistics!!

That's why we have separate home secretary, foreign minister, minister for state and border security, and under secretary for citizenship

They're supposed to oppose eachother

Anyone who talks regularly about Shabana Mahmood without ever mentioning Yvette Cooper, Mike Tapp, or Alex Noris is lying

You used a product with AI in. It's not your product. You chose it. There's other software available

Nobody's surprised

...except for some Americans being surprised how little the rest of us are surprised

They've just let the Americanism escape

So the question remains - what would you recommend?

As it stands, your criticism appears to be entirely uninformed. It reads like you're repeating other people's opinions

Yeah, I probably wouldn't do those either. Maybe temporary refugee status, but only if I'm satisfied we have a test that works

But I wouldn't also dismiss 400 other MPs and the work they do based on this

It's funny where your empathy ends

Good

You'd meet the same minimum requirement as Mahmood

You're criticising her for meeting your standard
