I hope they have a "packet of crisps/chips" pocket on the other side.

What if we let one Reform supporter out for each immigrant we let in?

"It's a controversial way of doing it, but it looks like complaints about immigration are down"

All fair points for a motorway/highway/freeway/whatever. I'd mistakenly thought the previous post was referring to a smaller local road with a 55mph limit.

I don't really care so much about what speed people do on motorways, but I have a massive problem with people doing 40-60mph in a 20-30mph limit residential area. Bear in mind where I live in the UK, the cars are driving 2 metres from the front door of everyone's houses.

Not personally, no - but the police would only need to catch a handful each day to get things moving a little more safely in the area.

Why don't they confiscate driving licences and imprison all the criminals who are driving 20-25mph dangerously over the limit?

"Of course, when we say 'family', we include the lesser-known definitions of the word, such as 'supporting Israel's far right government in their genocide', 'trying to make trans people illegal' and 'starving the poor'"

It's not really that tough, is it?

"People driving vehicles expected to pay attention to their surroundings and take responsibility for their actions"

Yes, he's had pretty much a constant stream of chances for over a decade.

For people who actually weren't given a chance, we need to look at people like Ed Milliband, who once ate a sandwich wrong, or Jeremy Corbyn, who thought we should increase taxes on rich people (which was, according to the news at the time, apparently antisemetic).

I'm hoping it's not one of those sudden lurches to the far right which seem to occur when someone suddenly needs access to the "special lawyers who make historical allegations disappear".

Sadly, it's been reported in numerous newspapers, from an interview between him and The Times.

Here's one from The Independent, but it's pretty much in all the papers.

"Rod Stewart tells UK to ‘give Farage a chance’" - The Independent

I'm more appalled by Rod Stewart saying:

"We've got to give Nigel Farage a chance".

and

"It's hard for me because I'm extremely wealthy, and I deserve to be, so a lot of it doesn't really touch me. But that doesn't mean I'm out of touch."

I hope the "Donald Trump Baby Blimp" makes an appearance at every place he visits :)

They exist. Go on a Steam discussions page for a popular game that doesn't currently support Linux, and create a new post politely asking about the possibility of Linux support.

or a selection of CEOs, perhaps?

I think everyone's got the CAD/3D programs covered, so a slightly "out there" answer:

If you're just doing 2D blueprints for yourself, do you actually just need a 2D vector program for doing a scale drawing with measurements?

I've done a lot of floorplans / layouts/ site maps etc using Inkscape, for instance.

It depends on exactly what you're wanting out the other end - so you may be lacking a lot of the features in a full CAD program, but the learning curve is comparatively so shallow that you might have a working plan by the end of the day, rather than the end of the month.

These three are brothers from the same litter, and they're best mates 90% of the time, thankfully :)

And rightly so. We just call them "serial ports" these days.

Many cute rabbits playing at your wedding does sound pretty good to be fair.

That's very impressive. My personal best was 3:

She clearly means mid 1800s Russian composers "Mussorgsky, Cui and Rimsky-Korsakov".
