  1. Does anyone know how to fix a Phillips Air Purifier that just does this when turned on? 20250113_115614.mp4
  2. I don't think he is talking about Pattaya.
  3. Everything they've done is to repair the economy. Will it work? It's too early to tell, but if it doesn't Labour will lose the next election in 2028/2029. I suspect some posters on this Forum are not from the UK and don't understand how it works her.
  4. It's common knowledge who he is, and yes, although I support the club, I don't support how they've handled this, even though he has not been charged. If he is charged it will be different. Of course Man City handled the same issue with Benjamin Mendy very differently. But ultimately he was acquitted!
  5. Amy Coney Barrett has definitely turned out to be an interesting appointment! I bet Trump is seething. Is she the youngest Justice? She will be around for a long time!
  6. I've also been with WRLife, for around 3 years, my wife and child too, but (fortunately) haven't had to make a claim! Interesting if they're advertising on this Forum as it's usually Cigna.
  7. Me too. They are promising action on the Jay report's recommendations (shamefully ignored by the last government), but I don't blame you for being sceptical about anything promised by politicians.
  8. So I'm sure you will support the new government trying to sort the mess out.
  9. The current episode of Radio 4's The Media Show is essential (and very moving/distressing) listening. They interview one of the heroes of the grooming/rape gangs history. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0026ncy
  10. PerfectTV is pretty reliable.
  11. Just stick to the Thai News forums and avoid the World News ones.
  12. What's pathetic is the political capital trying to be made by the Tories and the likes of Musk about something that has been going on for decades and was previously ignored. I hope the government stands strong and implements the recommendations of the Jay inquiry with haste.
  13. That's why they are going to take action now, rather than have another lengthy and costly inquiry!
  14. Give them time - they've only been in power since July! Let's judge them after two terms in power.
  15. The Jay enquiry reported in 2022. https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/national/24838144.alexis-jay-no-need-new-grooming-gangs-inquiry---just-get-on-reforms/ Prof Jay produced a report on grooming gangs in Rotherham in 2014 and then chaired the national inquiry into various forms of child sexual abuse which reported in 2022. โ€œWe have learned a lot from those reviews that have already been undertaken,โ€ she told BBC Radio 4โ€™s Today programme. โ€œLocally, people need to step up to the mark and do the things that have been recommended. โ€œI think that the time has passed for more inquiries. Weโ€™ve had enough of inquiries, consultations and discussions, and especially for those victims and survivors whoโ€™ve had the courage to come forward, and they clearly want action. โ€œWe have set out what action is required and people should just get on with it. Locally and nationally.โ€ https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/national/24838144.alexis-jay-no-need-new-grooming-gangs-inquiry---just-get-on-reforms/
  16. Most were defective and sent back to China!
  17. Absolutely agree. Levin's radio show is essential listening for liberals.
  18. Ah, so you don't mean "white" then? Just checking ๐Ÿ™„ Did you do any research before using the term (inaccurately)? "The concept of an indigenous population can be complex, especially in regions with a long history of migration and cultural exchange. In the UK, the term "indigenous" is not typically used in the same way as it is in countries like Norway or Canada, where there are recognized indigenous groups with distinct cultural identities. In the UK, the closest groups that could be considered indigenous are the Scottish Highlands and Islands' Gaelic-speaking communities, the Welsh, and the Cornish people. These groups have distinct languages, cultures, and histories that date back thousands of years. However, they do not have the same legal status or recognition as indigenous peoples elsewhere."
  19. Yes, and unlike the Tories, Labour don't often (ever?) ditch their leader mid-term. He'll still be PM in 2029 and I predict Labour will be re-elected. ๐Ÿคž
  20. Unfortunately, just something you have to put up with if you live here. ๐Ÿ˜“
  21. Who says you can't. There isn't a specific law against Islamophobia, unless it comes under the category of 'hate speech' which includes other religions too.
  22. Starmer isn't even a socialist, let alone a Marxist! The Labour Left/Momentum and George Galloway's party can't stand him and consider him another Blairite. What is an "indigenous" Briton?
  23. Prime Minister material according to Elon! ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคฃ
  24. Hanson belongs with the late (unlamented) Rush Limbaugh and, the still very much with us, Mark Levin. Right-wing rabble rousers. Good for a laugh, but not to be taken too seriously, much like their equivalents on the Left like (gorgeous) George Galloway and Noam Chomsky.
