Let's not forget, with FPTP and voter turnout, it's not half.
In the 2019 general election, they won 43% of the votes with 67% turnout, which, to be fair, was higher than Labour at 32% of the votes.
Brexit was 52% of votes with 72% turnout.
I wish we had a higher turnout and it's hard to justify that the will of the people is not met if they don't bother voting but guess I'm just saying, it's not true that it's over half of the country.
For a while now here in Europe, they charge more for bags that don't fit under the seat and let you check in one bag for free you used to be able to take on the flight so unless most people are paying extra for that, which I wouldn't believe would be the case if they're flying these cheap airlines, I don't think that is the issue
Nextcloud aio on docker is pretty easy. You just need to setup the reverse proxy really (i think on port 11000 if i remember correctly). It does come with apache so you could open it directly in your router but guessing you might have other services.
This is brilliant timing. I read this sitting at the gate for a short hall flight. There was still a lot of time before the flight and they announced "can Anna something please come to the desk", and about 40 people (I counted as had so much time still) stood up and rushed to queue up and then had to stand up for another 30 minutes until it actually started boarding...
It was a cheap airline so overhead space can be difficult but I really don't get the people who rush to sit down in the tight horrible seats (designated seating btw) waiting for everyone else to sit.
We arrived and then the picture happened of course...
That is true but the article clearly says they are looking at overall travel habits including walking, cycling and public transport.
I'm not a fan of uber or sick plaster solutions instead of radical long term redesign/change, but found the experiment and article very useful.
If you are a student with certain schools you can get it for free. I'm doing a part time course at a UK university and they gave it for free, I just had to register using my university email address. I've not taken it up as want to avoid it in favour of libreoffice but will use for coursework on a VM if I really need to.
Guess they try to suck people in so they pay in the future
Registration is open with a black Friday deal so you don't need an invite. I was trying to figure out on their website where to do it so maybe it's not available if registrations are open? I have no idea as not done it before
Do you physically have access to the router? If so, I would figure out the settings it uses that other people notice (wifi settings etc) and just hard reset it. Chances are they just use the basic settings provided anyway.
Is anybody else using the router or just you? If just you, I'd just do what you want to it and reset it when you leave.
I have one if you still need, please dm me if still looking
I have a family car, road bike, ebike and escooter. I really like my escooter the most for traveling around by myself, especially so I can jump on a train or bus, or even get a taxi if needed BUT they are still illegal here so I got pulled over by the police (I wasn't riding like an idiot so they let me off with a warning) and all the trains and buses have banned them so it's now useless. They never made them legal so we only have dangerous cheap ones. We could have legalised them like we did with ebikes and would have tackled this problem but only young or poor people use them so no chance. I love my ebike too but prefer the e scooter unless I'm going shopping or much longer trips without getting public transport. My road bike is for cycling trips in nice weather.
It is horrible how they target those who haven't paid even if they don't have to. They should put a stop to that, especially given how much people are struggling.
I don't think we should get into a trap of blaming things that cost us for being unaffordable but to be challenging why we are so poor compared to previous years. Austerity, big business and the lack of taxes on the rich are to blame for everyone suffering now. Also the B word hasn't helped. Yes, there has been the Ukraine war and covid but other countries seem to doing much better in response.
The licence fee is extremely good value for money for what we get and once we lose it, it's gone and will never come back. To get the same things we did from private companies would be ten times as much. BBC is £13 a month. To replace that you'd need netflix (with UHD and multiple users, which bbc offers is £17.99), Planet radio (3.99 although free with ads), News (depends on your flavour. Telegraph is 29.99, Guardian £14.99. Free options are available but are paid by 'special interests' wanting to direct your thinking and ads) and even more other services on top.
If you are not using it you should not be paying though, I definitely agree. There should be an assumption that you are not using it rather than you are choosing not to pay.
This is really interesting, thanks for sharing.
I knew about the girl who died and her mother's campaign but didn't realise how central it was to Khan's push for this. I also didn't know his personal problems with asthma and pollution, or his additional security needs.
I've seen a lot of these campaigners around. They rolled through Epsom Town centre a few weeks ago and funnily enough, their vans completely blocked the crossing I was trying to use with my 4 year old on a very busy street making it very unsafe.
They've caused lots of annoyance with their constant horns, driving up local traffic unnecessarily and megaphones. I hear more hate for Just Stop Oil but can frankly say, they've never caused me personally any problems at all so funny isn't it...
