I don't do Uber I do old style mini cabs who prefer cash.

I'm sure they do prefer it, but basically any taxi nowadays has the option for card when pre boooking on an app

I don't know...I think she may be pushing it too far....almost as if she wants to be sacked...

I think there is no way she is sacked. She is saying what they all wish they could, but want someone else to take the heat.

Fun Fact: Suella Braverman was named after a character from the TV soap Dallas.

I know that sounds made up, but it's real and I find it hilarious. She is pure evil though.

Technically hasn’t she breached the ministerial code by announcing or talking about policy in this way?

It comes as no surprise to me but......

Labour would not revoke the Rosebank licence if the party wins the next general election, the BBC has learned.

A senior party source said that while Labour had opposed the plans for the oil field on cost and climate grounds, they would not revoke the development if they get into government because they did not want to cause uncertainty. That position may provoke criticism from figures on the Labour left who want the party to commit to a faster green transition.

Labour has previously said that if it wins the election, it would not grant new licences for oil and gas exploration.

The Liberal Democrats are not expected to make a comment on the licence, but a party source said that their position remains that Rosebank should not go ahead.

There seems to be a prevailing mood on t'internet that the only thing women have to offer men is sex and equally the only thing men have to offer women is money.

I'm surprised that the very people who want to conserve what they see as our culture also appear to be trying to drive a wedge between men and women, effectively stopping them from reproducing.

Sort of a win win for centrist Labour. All the benefits of that lovely oil, without having to grant the licence themselves.

In this very thread yesterday there was a discussion about female MPs and their attractiveness. From the usual moral crusaders too.

Many of whom were very angry at Russell Brand who began his career by saying such things and saying they were 'just a bit of fun'.

I had to go away from this place yesterday as seeing 'moral crusaders' showing themselves to be all too much like the stereotypical 'macho man' sickened me.

and yet I still hear so many people who care about climate change and say we need to change saying  a vote for the Greens is a wasted vote....................... well is seems a vote for red, blue or yellow is a vote to carry on regardless.
