    Don't know what you mean. He promised to "smash the gangs", that was a policy announcement. It was also a meaningless deception, he never had any intention of reducing anything, the proof's in the results two years later.

    I think it was invested in Safety, not safely! He faces lots of potential danger from brainwashed loonies, the sort of silencing of ideas that is the evil way of the left. If you don't like what someone says, shut them up. The sort of thing that Starmer has attempted to encourage with his...

    outbuilding attached to house

    A shed attached to the house may well be considered an extension. Check the permitted development rules, ensure it's OK as both an outbuilding or extension, just in case a busybody neighbour wants to cause trouble. You'd be better off extending the roof and having decent headroom. It's not...

    Bricklayer daily rate?

    I've done some bricklaying on it, it's 90% OK, but I'm too slow and getting annoyed with it. Have done some big garden walls before, it's easy to follow a string line but window openings have to be right. Time to face reality, I can then spend more time earning money running my business and...

    Bricklayer daily rate?

    I'm wanting to offer an ex-brickie friend some work. Want to pay full market rate, don't want to insult by suggesting mate's rates. He'll be doing the skilled stuff, I'll be labouring. I don't want to waste pro builders' time by having them come round and quote for a job I hopefully won't...

    Could this board contain asbestos?

    Looks like fibreboard that's been painted white on one side to me. Here's some, under some plaster... But a better pic and/or testing would be good ideas.

    Ice cream sales and shark attacks are closely correlated. They both peak massively in the summer. Does ice cream cause shark attacks? It's a shame how uneducated so many are.

    So he bought a house with cash after Reform received a donation. I bought a house with cash after I'd bought a lottery ticket. The lottery ticket didn't win, I bought the house with money I already had. It's really sad to see how simple people believe such obvious carefully worded propaganda...

    Why's Starmer still the PM?

    Our GDP's rising mostly due to population rise, caused by importing talentless people, then paying them benefits that they spend in shops. It's all borrowing-funded figure-fiddling, while the real economy nose-dives due to tax, energy costs and poor prospects.

    Why's Starmer still the PM?

    Can he remain mayor while while attempting to become an MP?* If so he'll remain mayor. At least for a couple of years until the next election anyway, when probably anyone with a red banner is going to lose power anyway, the way things are going. So nothing to lose really. * This seat was 31%...

    Should retrofited air bricks bridge cavity wall or not?

    Those look like a really good idea. Might be a bit too visible for some though.

    Do I really, really need a windpost?

    Is this what he told you? If this wasn't bull then I'd expect him to be designing great public buildings, not measuring up for windows. It's disturbing just how good some people are at lying. They can look you in the eye and not care that they're spouting cobblers.

    Thanks. Is that per brick?

    Why's Starmer still the PM?

    The odds for "Next Prime Minister"... https://sports.williamhill.com/betting/en-gb/politics/competitions/uk-politics/outrights I don't normally gamble but I'm tempted to put a bet on Farage. i.e. that Starmer remains in power until the next general election. 16/1 is quite tempting. 500/1 on...

    Why's Starmer still the PM?

    I think I heard that Labour party rules say he's automatically included. But he does have the option of resigning, as he's always had.

    Tommy Tommy

    Do you seriously think that's the biggest issue (other than the middle east)? The UK's on the brink of bankrupcy.

    Why's Starmer still the PM?

    I reckon they'll all nominate themselves as soon as the drama queen does, they may as well. It would look a bit weird for any MP to back Wes then vote for someone else. But I suspect that none of the above will happen. They all know that Starmer is the least awful of the awful choices.

    Because they've been dragged into a US-based cult based on religious brainwashing techniques, where they're persuaded that those who aren't one of them are bad. MAGA is just the modern day equivalent of "The Devil". Human brains at the lower end of the intelligence scale are susceptible, these...
