Always followed by "${currentChancellor} (under pressure|glad) as the economy...", in the first sentence or somehow incorporated into the headline depending on the bias of the publication.

The problem is money. The amount of opposition the government got for allocating the spending for just changing the signs was huge.

Instead, any effort and capital should be going towards public transport and alternatives to car infrastructure, but there never seems to be enough money about.

Tulsi Gabbard, US director of national intelligence, said tapping Americans’ data would be an “egregious violation” of privacy that risked breaching the two countries’ data agreement.

A bit rich coming from America after what we found out after the Snowden whistleblowing.

The news is that it is a new change. The reason why it is being opposed is that it is needlessly restrictive on refugees which we already make as hard as possible to allow to apply already.

For example, imagine you are someone from the DR Congo and need to flee the conflict. You have family in the UK so you attempt to make your way here using refugee routes. You can only make it as far as France before having to take a boat over and get into the country illegally even before you can apply for asylum. Now even if this application is accepted, you can never become a citizen, even though you are legally living in the country.

The unfair bit of it is that you cannot apply for asylum without being in the country (except in certain circumstances) which you cannot enter without entering illegally. This is at least my novice knowledge of the way the system works at the moment.

Over in the UK, this got picked up by the mainstream papers. Maybe he is more well known over here. He is the type to often gets headlines for his outrageous comments.

The documentary is a good watch. It is scary to see how the PA members think their views are normal. e.g. saying something along the lines of "everyone thinks this..." after saying something abhorrent.

But to confuse things even more, colleges are places to go from 16, not to be confused with sixth-forms which do much the same thing, but are attached to secondary education schools.

Are you nearby to it at least? The last big one in December they had the emergency warning zone a fair bit bigger than the actual red area to account for people travelling. Which does make sense considering people will commute up to 50 miles or so, plus inaccuracies from phone masts covering a large area.

I loved it. I think it is a great progression from the battle passes which personally felt far more grindy and exploitative.

I really like the detail the put in to all of the little art works and sprites, and the minigames. You can tell it has taken more time with likely less profit than the battle pass system.

My only qualm is that because I wanted to follow the story, I wanted to complete an act in one go cos otherwise I will just forget. That meant I was just hording tokens for ages and not really participated until the last week.

British Gas is not exactly a oil company - they are a energy supplier for households (electricity & gas). However he could definitely be considered evil for pushing UK energy companies to excessive profiteering.

Not sure how to change it, but I think I know why.

When you lock, the time until the screen turns off goes right down to a couple of seconds - you can stop this by wiggling you mouse or pressing a button like normal. This is different to sleep where it uses very little power and the state is moved to memory - background process will still be running when the screen is off.

You may be able to adjust this in the GUI by changing when the screen goes off in settings, but I have not tested.

I got interested myself and did a quick search, but it doesn't seem like Riot have live stats unfortunately. I would expect League of Legends to have more players, but I don't think it would be that huge, especially considering how popular Dota is in non-western countries.

I also find it funny how if you search something like "dota vs lol player count", most of the spammy sites just compare the number you gave or even worse comparing Dota's 1m peak concurrent per month vs League's 150m total a month.

There also seems to be a disparity in the number of accounts that most players have per game (smurfs) making this probably not worth the time to research!
