Zone 1 is a bit idk, but for a 1 bed in zone 2 it's £1400 pcm and up. Obviously more is better but that's bear minimum
For a studio you can potentially get 1100 or 1200.
my neighbours rent in zone 3 for 1300 for a two bed. I pay 2700 mortgage for the same next door. their landlord isn't jacking up the price to market rate but mortgage rates are tough right now compared to 6 years ago
I'm thinking of going for a zone 1 studio. But maybe it's just too bomalian. Is it worth living in a cell to live in zone 1.. or do I just carry on living in a dead town.
some zone 1 studios dont look that bad for 1300

Irish Nats pushing for a unification referendum during a Labour government. I think they need to sit down and ask themselves why the Irish governement only ever makes soft overtures to the prospect of Irish unity. It's because Ireland knows it isn't even prepared to deal with all those loyalists who won't move to the mainland and will never accept the legitimacy of their government. Good look to all the Irish Nats on social media who think they are going to march into Loyalist areas and force them out while listening to the Wolfe Tones.
The Irish state knows that taking on Northern Ireland would burden them. Fiscal gap of £14.5 billion in 2023 between revenue and expenditure. That would be the yearly cost to Dublin, not even considering the exceeding large amount they'll have to spend on unification. Successive Irish governments have paid lip-service to the idea, but none of them have been stupid enough to seriously consider it.
We know from 1922 and 1944 that the Irish government could have ended the Troubles if they had wanted. Proper cooperation on both sides of the border would have made it impossible for militants to operate.
There is a petty part of me that would find great satisfaction in watching them now having to pay the very hefty price of finally getting their way.
They did get their way and did pay a hefty price when the Dublin Monaghan bombings happened. Curiously, after the bombings suddenly the Irish government decided that letting terrorists have free rein in the country was a bad idea.

https://www.instagram.com/p/C8SEmXStwic/
She lies again and again.
1. phones don't fit in her pocket." Women's clothes don't have pockets. Women put phones in their handbags. Small phones exist. Women can buy them if they want.
2. "only 22% of clinical trials include women in their design" this is just an obvious ridiculous lie, only a moron would believe such nonsense. Apparently 22% of PARTICIPANTS in STAGE 1 trials are women.
3. "women have 4x more adverse reactions than men" lie - it's 1.5x, apparently.
4. "women get diagnosed with disease 4 years later than men" - lie again. This is the age at which the average patient is diagnosed, in a Danish study. This speaks to the very well-known fact that women enjoy much longer life expectancy than men. It's referring to the average age that people are diagnosed with a disease. E.g., 'the average dementia patient was diagnosed at 73.7' - this means women enjoy four more years of healthy life.
5. "crash test dummies based on average male" - no, lying liar from liarsville. there have been female and male dummies for years now. Standard tests also now include children. You can't just recycle old stuff for gibs you disgusting liar.
6. "just 1% of global health care funding goes to female-specific conditions" lie again - it's 1% EXCLUDING cancer.
7. "AI was historically developed on the male database, and that's why it's hard to unbias now" - wtf are you on about, this is just drivel
8. "80% of AI outcomes are biased against women" - wtf does this even mean?

[Tories dragging out Boris Johnson again](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2024/06/17/tories-turn-to-boris-johnson-counter-reform-election-threat/).
Seriously? They ditched him and now they are wheeling him back out for election time? Are voters really going to fall for it?
Also Boris is nothing without Cummings. He was the brains behind the man.
Boris and Cummings were perfect for one another.
Boris is a charismatic moron who was good at galvanising votes from traditional Labour areas.
Cummings is a good strategist who cannot communicate to save his life.
Put the two together and you have a good (as in effective, not good policies) politician. However, they are a dual act, and that is why both a Johnson return and a new Cummings party are both going to fail.
Don’t be fooled by his Quasi Populism. Johnson is a neoliberal like all of his other Tory bedfellows. A man who sees the free market, prostituting our assets, gutting our industrial capacity and destroying communities as the end rather than the means to the end.
They're all acting like Boris isn't responsible for the current levels of mass immigration, which he is. As bad as Sunak is, he deserves way less hate than Boris. It was Boris who accelerated the decline. What's happening here is that the tories are trying to gaslight people into thinking it's Sunak's fault when in reality a lot of problems facing the UK today is due to Boris and the fake 'right wing' tories who did fuck all when he pushed through with his insane policies on immigration.
Johnson never even wanted Brexit, it was a political vehicle for him to eventually negotiate a higher position in the Tory party. It was by sheer fortune (and ironically a small part due to him) that it happened, and then he became prime minister essentially by accidentally backing a horse that he didn’t believe in.

Fuck me Disney Star Wars has been ridiculous. I've watched every film in the cinema, but after 8 I didn't bother again. Mandalorian and the Clone Wars weren't bad. Ashoka had it's moments, Kenobi was a complete own goal.
[This is apt](https://youtu.be/TWhsjai-OVE?si=udlXQNzHyO2BmFAh)
I watched Mandalorian but the last season was pretty shit, I hated that they gave him back that little green shit in between seasons. The show was much more interesting with him being a bounty hunter and not being revolved around a toddler.
Still follow a lad from school on the X, his brain has completely rotted out - he's like a living meme. Still loves Star Wars, collects Star Wars Funko-Pops, rewatches Star Wars all the time, argues about Star Wars on the Internet, has made being gay his personality and hates JK Rowling and the Tories. His holidays are going to destinations where they've shot Star Wars scenes for the latest trash show they are churning out, dresses up and attends conferences, destined to be a middle aged rentoid.

Warrington really bought into the Northern Powerhouse stuff. There made huge investment in the [Omega development](https://www.warrington.gov.uk/omega) - a distribution hub in the middle of the North West for Amazon, Post Office, Hermes, the Hut Group (My Protein and online beauty businesses) and then also lent the Hut Group £200 million as they're one of the major employers in the area. The Labour leader was keen on working with private businesses and also across the political divide- was instrumental in getting agreement on a HS2 having a station in Warrington, which was then meant to be synced up with new stations on an electrified Northern Powerhouse line between Manchester and Liverpool. Wouldn't surprise me if the cancellation of HS2 has fucked them over quite a lot.
You are right but they also invested in a lot of crap. Not as bad as the one down south, they were instrumental in creating a globally known ecomm hub (that has benefitted from location)...but they also invested in magic beans.
Yeah probably. In not a dissimilar way to your average Chinese Tier 3 city they were responding to a lot of government policy directives and initiatives when deciding where to invest money.
I do wonder what the calibre of people local councils have directing investment and assessing risk is like compared to your average bank- probably not great I imagine.

The number of Tory-written Telegraph articles warning how Reform have this nefarious concealed agenda to destroy the Conservative party.
Yeah, we know. That's why we're voting for them.
The absolute entitlement that their shitshow electoral backstabbing party should have the right to exist.
And also worth pointing out that if they are reduced to 19 seats then Farage could easily take the party over. The vast majority of those MP’s saying they wouldn’t consider him will have lost their seats. Farage would only need the support of 10 MP’s to be appointed as leader unopposed, like Sunak was.
The more seats they lose, the less likely it will be.
The Tories are going to retreat to the Home Counties and some seats around Cheshire/Yorkshire. They will become a purely regional party like the Liberals when they collapsed (who were a largely Scottish and Welsh party by the end). There is no reason to deal with anyone else.
If they integrate the Home Counties lot, they will also die because this group will convince Farage to stab the rest of the country in the back (which is what they did with Boris...within two years, they immediately flooded the country with low-wage workers and didn't build any houses...they don't care because it just the expendable Northern MPs who will lose their seats). This is what happened to Labour, the Tories convinced MacDonald to commit suicide by joining them in a coalition.
Ignore them. Come up with good policies.

They don't, watch Farage in interviews, it's rare they don't bring it up in a question in some way even without a relevant subject.

They ditched him and now they are wheeling him back out for election time? Are voters really going to fall for it? Also Boris is nothing without Cummings. He was the brains behind the man.
Boris and Cummings were perfect for one another. Boris is a charismatic moron who was good at galvanising votes from traditional Labour areas. Cummings is a good strategist who cannot communicate to save his life. Put the two together and you have a good (as in effective, not good policies) politician. However, they are a dual act, and that is why both a Johnson return and a new Cummings party are both going to fail. Don’t be fooled by his Quasi Populism. Johnson is a neoliberal like all of his other Tory bedfellows. A man who sees the free market, prostituting our assets, gutting our industrial capacity and destroying communities as the end rather than the means to the end.
That description gave me images of Master Blaster in Mad Max.
If only Farage and Cummings could work together...
They're all acting like Boris isn't responsible for the current levels of mass immigration, which he is. As bad as Sunak is, he deserves way less hate than Boris. It was Boris who accelerated the decline. What's happening here is that the tories are trying to gaslight people into thinking it's Sunak's fault when in reality a lot of problems facing the UK today is due to Boris and the fake 'right wing' tories who did fuck all when he pushed through with his insane policies on immigration.
Johnson never even wanted Brexit, it was a political vehicle for him to eventually negotiate a higher position in the Tory party. It was by sheer fortune (and ironically a small part due to him) that it happened, and then he became prime minister essentially by accidentally backing a horse that he didn’t believe in.
He was amusing on Have I Got News For You. Ironic that the Beeb should have given him a platform given what followed.

Doing a bit of reading on [Munira Wilson](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munira_Wilson), the Lib Dem MP who said Clouston was “all over the place” on Politics Live She is an absolute stereotype. Oxbridge educated, worked as a lobbyist for a private pharmaceutical company, elected in 2019 (the Jo Swinson election, #DebateHer) , appointed “spokesperson for health, wellbeing and social care” by Ed Davey in 2020, and has proceeded, it seems, to have done nothing of note since.

Fuck me Disney Star Wars has been ridiculous. I've watched every film in the cinema, but after 8 I didn't bother again. Mandalorian and the Clone Wars weren't bad. Ashoka had it's moments, Kenobi was a complete own goal. [This is apt](https://youtu.be/TWhsjai-OVE?si=udlXQNzHyO2BmFAh)
I watched Mandalorian but the last season was pretty shit, I hated that they gave him back that little green shit in between seasons. The show was much more interesting with him being a bounty hunter and not being revolved around a toddler.
Season 2 wrapped up perfectly. Getting Grogu back to sell toys was cynical in my eyes
It was the 5th episode of Kenobi when I thought "I'm too old for crap like this," and haven't watched anything Star Wars related since.
Still follow a lad from school on the X, his brain has completely rotted out - he's like a living meme. Still loves Star Wars, collects Star Wars Funko-Pops, rewatches Star Wars all the time, argues about Star Wars on the Internet, has made being gay his personality and hates JK Rowling and the Tories. His holidays are going to destinations where they've shot Star Wars scenes for the latest trash show they are churning out, dresses up and attends conferences, destined to be a middle aged rentoid.

>“We haven’t been borrowing money to invest for a return. We’ve been borrowing money for regeneration. What the hell is wrong with that?” oh dear god.
Warrington really bought into the Northern Powerhouse stuff. There made huge investment in the [Omega development](https://www.warrington.gov.uk/omega) - a distribution hub in the middle of the North West for Amazon, Post Office, Hermes, the Hut Group (My Protein and online beauty businesses) and then also lent the Hut Group £200 million as they're one of the major employers in the area. The Labour leader was keen on working with private businesses and also across the political divide- was instrumental in getting agreement on a HS2 having a station in Warrington, which was then meant to be synced up with new stations on an electrified Northern Powerhouse line between Manchester and Liverpool. Wouldn't surprise me if the cancellation of HS2 has fucked them over quite a lot.
You are right but they also invested in a lot of crap. Not as bad as the one down south, they were instrumental in creating a globally known ecomm hub (that has benefitted from location)...but they also invested in magic beans.
Yeah probably. In not a dissimilar way to your average Chinese Tier 3 city they were responding to a lot of government policy directives and initiatives when deciding where to invest money. I do wonder what the calibre of people local councils have directing investment and assessing risk is like compared to your average bank- probably not great I imagine.

She can't stand down because the deadline to do so has passed. (She was also the founder of the Brexit Party, before she got Farage to take it over.)

Latest polling gives the Tories 19 seats. In 4th place, behind the SNP and LibDems. ‘Labour lead by 27 points in our latest poll.’ Con 19% (-2) Lab 46% (-) Lib Dem 10% (+1) Reform 16% (+4) Fieldwork: 14th - 17th June 2024 https://x.com/DeltapollUK/status/1802755485331780094 If they lost just one more point each week then we’d pretty much be at zero seats.
[Too much fucking red!!](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GQS7bJBWsAAsvp6?format=jpg&name=large) FFS, all the regards that are holding their nose and voting for Tories have to do is vote for reform and yet they still can't get their heads around it. 🤦♂️
This is Reform's best ever poll with Deltapoll.

Would also add this point from the substack guy >Nigel Farage & Reform hit new high of 18% (JL Partners). Across ALL polls Reform now averaging nearly 16%, up from 11% at start of campaign. Tory lead over Reform is down from average of 12 pts to just 5 pts ... https://x.com/GoodwinMJ/status/1802733187807822047?t=YmLnAlLGhQ7LB1Zas9fCYg&s=19
The number of Tory-written Telegraph articles warning how Reform have this nefarious concealed agenda to destroy the Conservative party. Yeah, we know. That's why we're voting for them. The absolute entitlement that their shitshow electoral backstabbing party should have the right to exist.
“A vote for x is a vote for y” logic can F off. I am an adult and know what I am doing. Nobody deserves my vote by default.
And also worth pointing out that if they are reduced to 19 seats then Farage could easily take the party over. The vast majority of those MP’s saying they wouldn’t consider him will have lost their seats. Farage would only need the support of 10 MP’s to be appointed as leader unopposed, like Sunak was.
The more seats they lose, the less likely it will be. The Tories are going to retreat to the Home Counties and some seats around Cheshire/Yorkshire. They will become a purely regional party like the Liberals when they collapsed (who were a largely Scottish and Welsh party by the end). There is no reason to deal with anyone else. If they integrate the Home Counties lot, they will also die because this group will convince Farage to stab the rest of the country in the back (which is what they did with Boris...within two years, they immediately flooded the country with low-wage workers and didn't build any houses...they don't care because it just the expendable Northern MPs who will lose their seats). This is what happened to Labour, the Tories convinced MacDonald to commit suicide by joining them in a coalition. Ignore them. Come up with good policies.
They won't hold any seats in the North at all besides North Yorkshire and perhaps Northumberland North. Nothing in Cheshire.

Hans, Dieter and Denis are at a loss as to how to proceed as they have never dealt with Indians, many of whom are identical. A mid afternoon tantrum on my part got someone else into the picture and now progress can be made. Went to see a newly delivered ship from a Chinese yard in the afternoon and raised about half a million dollars worth of issues for the yard to fix, so- for once- the days work was justified.

The epitome of "If you don't like it, fuck off".
Actual problem and why Islam is impossible to square in UK. Hijabs are oppressive, but this lady will resonate with fellow Muslims. In Iran, women just want to have the freedom to wear normal clothes. But here, they see women with little clothing and the difference becomes too large. It's mad really. Just incompatible with western society.
The funny part is that people who want infinity migrants will show complete intolerance towards people with slightly different political views but want all these socially conservative people here because they are foreign and, therefore, virtuous. Twenty years ago we had people blowing up our country who believed in a slightly different version of Christianity. Yes, there is going to be a culture clash with Muslims from agricultural societies.
