I know right. I mean we used to throw our crap out of the window into the street now everybody is soft about blummin toilets.

And if we regressed then 90% of people wouldn't know what to do, I know a large section of celebs would kill themselves outright in such conditions
 
I had blackouts in Wakefield in mid 00s. Lasted about 2-4 hours a time. One day I woke up 25 mins before I started work in Leeds. Rang a taxi and got in work on the dot.

Now always have a battery alarm clock just in case of any power cuts
 
I mean…seeing some comments here - I really don’t think we’re wrong to expect a solid, stable power supply and that somehow we’re pampered for complaining about three hour outages.

We’re a developed nation we should have the necessary infra and forward planning.
 
scare mongering gas supply shortage was a replay of 2018 beast from the east - where we would need some EU/continental gas to keep us going from our friends.

California avoided blackout by getting consumers to turn (AC) thermostats up this year, and pre-cooling their houses to reduce peak demand slot, when everyone would, nonetheless, be cooking ..
if everyone does a little, is the UK consumer capable of that ?... maybe time-shift the world cup matches, showing the final maybe too much of a risk.

'we got him'


I think triggers broom analogy for four tory leaders is apt,

I do not care what your reason is for why half hearted commitment to war and escalation to a nuclear conflict is good/necessary. I’ve heard it all before.

All I said is people wanted war and they got war. *shrugs shoulders*
Apparently those reasons aren’t good enough to stop them complaining about the fallout from war. We have multiple threads, pages long of people complaining.

I am not interested in arguing it for longer than necessary, I expect with the war continuously escalating and that aligning with every key world leaders desire (and no one wanting to de-escalate the situation) that a nuclear weapon will be used before this conflict is over. I would rather not be arguing on the internet when the white flash happens outside my window.
