Might be an idea to start making media funding a lot more open. GB news is obviously not making a profit.

You couldn't use AI to make up anything that resembles Dowden. An atypical snake oil sales pitch. Anything these scumbags say will be meaningless soon. Their time left is very limited and unlikely to make a return. Smile and wave would be my advice.

If I go to another country I follow the laws of that state. It is called respect.

That is voter share, that does not indicate that there are more over 50s than under 50s.

I saw HGTG posted on a reddit book forum about 2 years back: it was slated badly. It really put me off a reread. Comments like it hadn't age well, and just plain silly came to mind. I caved and started it again. I was hooked from page 1 all over again. It really does fall into the marmite book category.

I find the process amazing, more so if it can be cascaded across many donors.

A valid point but the emphasis in the statement is that it is an "explosive charge" this week. Those murders have been going on for decades. This is about the change in the audacity of these crimes.

I never said there was.

It is a vague reference that they are following the route of China and Russia by ignoring and abusing the laws of western states.

An undeniable classic. Still one of my favourite book series of all time.

Nothing is going to change with inaction. We all need to be proactive in this change. Simply stating we cannot, because we have not done enough in the past, should not mean we must carry on in that fashion.

A very sad outcome that is derived from ignorance and selfish behaviour.

Don’t call them boomers then. Call them people over 50 or 60… they are a majority demographic-wise.

What? I responded to your reference. There are also more people under 50 than over 50. That is just plain ridiculous.

Baby boomers are pulling the average well above 50

Please show me where you are getting this from.

Younger immigrants can’t vote, so even asking young people to vote you still have a majority of old people that can vote.

What has immigration to do with age demographics? You are attacking people of a certain age with a generalisation then throwing a totally different issue into the mix in a feeble attempt to reinforce that argument.

Extremely sad.

In other news Russian Media is biased towards Russia. The US is funding the largest part of the Ukraine's weaponry. What else are they expecting?

I hate this idiotic boomer generalisation. It has no foundation in anyway shape or form. It is just culture wars that people buy into. Yes older people vote more, but they have the same statistics when they were young as the young do now. They haven't spent their whole lives voting selfishly. In the UK the only reason you have more boomers in the group is because the group is based on 18 years and not 15 like the other groups. When you average out how many are in each group by year they come in 3rd lowest. The highest is the gen X. By the time these people were 18 they were not even the largest group then. People die leave the country and other emigrate in. It is just a stupid fallacy people have latched onto.

I am with you 100%. Expecting Google to be responsible for road maintenance is a frivolous. Google will sue them for legal costs.

Have we forgotten that this government was doing procurement business through Whatsapp?

Germany promotes critical thinking in politics.

Totally agree. Kids have killed themselves over stuff like this. It is a criminal offence for a reason.
