I’m not a fan of current circumstances, but person who is identified as an activist of a topic a country is currently proscribing shouldn’t be surprised that they can’t enter that country.


Not particularly, I’d prefer to ban the bangs altogether. If you let every variation of celebration be an excuse for letting off the bangs and whistles there would always be yet another religious section/version that justifies continued use. But in a UK community suggesting UK traditional restrictions does not immediately jump to my mind to be internationally inclusive. I wouldn’t expect to celebrate Nov5 if I emigrated to China, but then I wouldn’t complain that their new year’s celebrations aren’t on jan1 because that would be foolish.


The problem of course are the people who couldn’t care less about others. Fireworks became a nuisance when people set them off weeks in advance of Nov5 and weeks later to suit their own selfishness, then hang on to purchased fireworks to use them later, for personal events, ends up being October November December and NYEeve is almost non stop for selfish twats disturbing others. Should be; Nov5 or nearest weekend. NYEve and nothing else. Then public displays only, no purchase without license.


Laugh my socks off? I love it! How about lmaio?


I always take the worse down south to mean basically London. Because I couldn’t live further south without standing in the sea all the time and to be honest, it’s all pretty friendly and chatty wherever I go, except heading towards London.
I watched the 1984version of the film 1984 today. It was slightly worrying that the state of the world today feels so similar. The U.K. really has been airstrip one of late and it’s disgusting.


Article Updated 12:50 PM BST, August 10, 2026. The news itself is weeks old, what’s the point?


I already know that my current iPhone will be the last one I purchase because of Apple’s implementation of the age verification. Linux phone next time Edited to add; 2000 people in a survey to gauge opinion on such a narrow subject is absolutely fuck all by the way.


What is chutzpah?


The real way to prevent the socials showing dangerous driving, is to prohibit all clips of driving unless approved by a moderator who takes responsibility for the content being legal. This means all dangerous driving in registered vehicles and the illegal e-motorbikes and e-scooters (which could never be posted legally)


Nationalise now!


The article says absolutely nothing, it’s a vacuous drivel talk around the subjects. Pointless


On the German autobahns there is no speed limit, but there is a convention between car makers that the electronic limiter is set at usually 255kph ~= 155mph. It’s quite common for real fast car owners to have the limiter removed or raised, so getting passed by a Porsche doing 300kph is a real possibility. And amusingly, the winter tyres maximum speed is 210kph. As a UK driver, we have 70mph as max, so it’s mental the first time you drive there.


What about surge discounts during leaks?


When enforcement for traffic offences is only speed cameras/cctv /average speed cameras, you can only catch registered vehicles. I see so many illegal e-bikes (don’t need pedalling to power) and e-scooters driven by adults and kids alike, utterly no cops stopping people anywhere.


Illegal e-scooters no less. I’m surprised there’s not more stats on pedestrian injured by riders of e-scooters


To mark the initiative, said to be the first of its kind since admission charges were introduced 125 years ago, the Guardian was granted 20 minutes in the circle on Tuesday morning to sample the solitude.
Maybe 25years ago?
When I was a kid, you could pull over in a layby on the road adjacent the stones and just step onto a path straight to the stones, later there was a small National Trust car park added with a parking fee. Then years later they blocked the road off to protect the stones from traffic exhaust damage, and built up the visitor centre you see today.


The defendant had 21 previous convictions for 40 offences
