Now watch the animals of farthing wood

Thats largely because they’ve shouted about (and let everyone shout about) the shit stupid things they’ve done, ans kept quiet about anything decent.

• massively improving workers rights
• restoring and improving the last labour government’s sure start scheme
• fixed the doctors strikes and already got NHS waiting lists down

are a few big things that will massively help people. Instead of talking about these they’re letting the narrative be that they’re basically doing austerity again.

I see two explanations. One, perhaps by “reading”, they’re referring to reading of a lengua franca like Federation standard - Nog has learned and is capable of reading the Ferengi language, but not another. When dealing with other languages, the general expectation is either a universal translator is used or they pick it up as they go.

I feel like this is a potential argument alongside the increased neuroplastisity. Jake and Keiko would not have been able to help him learn to read Ferengi as I very much doubt they could read it themselves.

Still Starfleet seems to have educational requirements. In LD:“Something Borrowed, Something Green”, Tendi mentions how she wouldn’t have gotten into the Academy without having gone to high school, suggesting Nog needs the equivalent of a high school education to train to be a Starfleet officer.

Clearly The Sisko was better at persuading Starfleet / The UFP itself how politically advantageous it would be to have an officer from a world thar, not that long ago, had been expected to be the next major enemy.

Thinking on this, Nog’s family had connnections to the Nagus (I’m not sure if it’s revealed before or after his joining - but even if it’s after the Federation has spies ) so his rise though the ranks could be as much about politics as it is about his raw talent

Plus it’s not free. So the assumption would be that they’re making their momey by charging the therapist a service charge.

Also, just being the wrong type of Christian in the 14th and 15th centuries was a good way to get burnt at the steak or hung if you weren’t willing to convert to whichever was currently in fashion with the monarch.

Isn’t not having kids more impactful than anything as that’s entire person’s life of co2 you’re not creating.

Sorry, I can’t help you with this request at the moment. Is there anything else I can help you with?

Weekends = 104

Holiday entitlement = 35

Paid “sick” = 10 (yeah not great)

Meh I’ll take a day less as I get to do what I want on those days rather than grovel to some nonexistent man in the sky.

Haha yeah that would actually be really good.

The problem we’ve had over here is the big parties haven’t wanted to relinquish power or don’t seem to recognise how much the political climate has changed.

UKIP got big because people wanted an alternative not really because people wanted to leave the EU. You can tell that because Cameron gave people the EU referendum to try and neuter them. They just reformed into Reform UK and are now polling scary well.

The most sensible thing Labour could do this parliament is introduce proportional representation in some kind. That way at rhe next election they’d likley be the biggest party in a centre left colalition. There’s no signs of them even considering it. They seem to still think that power should be all or nothing.

What we get now, because they’ve hung on so tight to FPTP is a really big chunk of people voting tactically against the party they don’t want.

How would more than two work in your system? In the UK it has led (and looks like it will continue to lead) to some very unrepresentative results. FPTP means that the vote gets split so e.g if there’s 3 left wing parties and they each get 24% of the vote but there’s only 1 right wing party and they get 28% the right wing candidate will win (even though 72% of people voted against them)

Must be Aussies then. Brits it’s ache.

Which ones?

Do Americans pronounce age ache then?

You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today

And then one day you find ten years have got behind you

No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

When you ask a British guy his salary, but a cultural stigma surrounding talking openly about money makes him too uncomfortabe to answer and he changes the subject.

All right, then. Keep your secrets.

Then why would we think the person exiting hasn’t washed their hands? Surely it’s more likely they’re just heading to the sinks.

Are the sinks inside the cubicles in America then?
