Well I know TWTD hardly represents broader opinion but does seem to agree with national polls and recent local results in the impression The Conservatives are shmuggered. Which is a shame, but not entirely surprising or undeserved. |

Reply | Been finding Indian takeaways in Ipswich are dropping in quality

Ate at Dhaka a couple of weeks ago and it was really good. Assume doing takeaway allows a discount but not sure.
Alishan Pavilion in Kesgrave really good too, used to deliver for them in the Covid era and took a free dish home every night. Got the point where I would sweat curry sauce though. |

What's the point in playing at all if you don't aspire to be among the best, or even to be the best?
I feel quite positive that if KM gets us back up, he'll do better up there next season. Not going to predict survival, but at least it might be a closer run shot at it. |

Apart from the one with the sh!t-eating grin they seem alright to me. Think a few people here are being overly judgemental and snobby. Making assumptions. |

I’m actually pretty peed off at Forest for prying Hutch away to not even give him minutes as a sub. Such a waste. Maybe we will see him back after all at this rate. Which I would welcome but the way. |

Felixstowe may well be a target too. So Norfolk definitely gonna be too close. Even if the winds are kind, imagine the flood of refugees. Then the north folk start eating the south folk, the savages. |

You want a remote, agriculturally viable location in the southern hemisphere.
New Zealand, southern Patagonia and central Tasmania are often cited. But you still need to check what way the wind is blowing when all that fallout is thrown up in the air. |

Part of the issue here is lumping certain positions into a 'right-wing' bucket (just as those on the other side do similar for 'left-wing') which just reduces the terms left and right to generic insults for people you think are no good. Like it's not possible to be left wing and racist, or right wing and care about the environment. To me it always just defined what role you think government should have in the economy and the detail of peoples lives. You can be an A-hole on either side. |

at 09:57 11 Sep 2025
Yup I was listening to an R4 discussion about attacks on the judiciary the other day and the Banksy thing was cited as an example of how they can come from the left as well as the right.
The art incorrectly suggests it is judges responsible for the over-repression of protestors (if of course you believe this is the case, as Mr Banksy seems to). Politicians decide the law, judges only see that it is followed. Although you can argue it's just symbolic, and there's not really an easy way to visually depict the legislature as an individual. But may be unhelpful. |

To those feeling like we are in some new and more dangerous era or that the world is falling apart - suggest reading up on some history for reassurance. This is not unusual or new. If anything modern history is unique in how most of the world has largely managed to move away from this kind of violence as part of political discourse. What is new is we live in a time of rolling news and streaming live video and real time commentary online between people who might otherwise have thought a little harder about what they are saying.
As for Trumps response and similar prominent commentators - disappointing but not surprising. Would be better to hear him say something like "We all need to be more careful in how we debate and the tone of our language, myself included. Let's stop seeing each other as the enemy, rather as friends and fellow citizens who happen to disagree" but of course this is asking too much. |

Also, even ignoring the rights and wrongs of the tax situation, how does someone in her position manage to accumulate that much wealth? Career as a union rep and then MP / minister shouldn't be quite so rewarding. Similar to the millionaire Jeremy Corbyn and his career as an agitator at taxpayer expense.
Realise it's not just about these individuals but the whole parliament / government gravy train. |

Or alternatively, a feather in the cap for The Telegraph who held power to account after No 10 (or the office of Angela Rayner, I forget) issued a false statement on the matter to make it go away. |
