So they invest in LNG and then threaten supposed “allies” to protect that investment. You know instead of investing in renewables or anything

Maybe some companies are taking a hit to profits? At least for a period, maybe slowly increase prices

She didn’t even “come out of nowhere” looks like the driver should have seen her crossing with enough time. That’s assuming he even looked up from his phone

I can’t see them actually undoing it. It will just become a thing that is no longer enforced. Once one company stands up to it and refuses to pay the fine, and the uk can’t force them to pay, others will do it. Once enough do it the UK will stop trying (hopefully)

I think in theory you can now with the safari extensions but for whatever reason there aren’t any available yet (or any well known ones anyway)

Am we up the whimsy levels? Not enough daily, base level, whimsy anymore

 

So I’m walking to an evening class at a local college, it’s dark. There’s a bend just before the junction and as I’m walking across a car comes round way too fast. I had to step back to avoid being hit. I was wearing gloves and as it went past I hit it, no idea why, just instinct and anger.

I carry on walking and I see the driver has pulled over a bit down the road, I was expecting a “sorry are you ok” but she instead shouted “did you just hit my car?”. That set me off, shouting at her that she almost fucking ran me over. Then she says “you don’t have to use that kind of language”, the fucking nerve.

Gave up and just walked off. Wish I’d have smashed the wing mirror or keyed the car or something.

Has anyone else almost been run over and how do you deal with the anger of it?

 

Hate how the BBC always use passive voice for car crashes. No mention that a driver is at fault.

 

The Conservatives in Wales lose their last ditch attempt to stop the speed limit change from 30mph to 20mph. The change will be coming into force on the 17th September
