In Britain the protected amount is £85k per person per banking group, and it's universal that anyone with more than that splits it over accounts with multiple banks, taking care to make sure the banks aren't part of the same banki

Bailing out the owners is obviously completely out of the question, but why bail out the depositors beyond the guarantees they knew they were getting at the time? Funny how language is being used to frame all this. For depositors it's

I'm having to rely on Google at the moment, it's a nightmare. I'm typing in questions and all I'm getting back are links to pages where someone has asked the same question, and that's only if someone has actually

> how fucked the food supply chain is Oh great, and there's me thinking it was only an amusingly trivial contribution to the nation's woes. Now I've got this whole calamity to worry about. And by the way, the idea that s

A comical new addition to the general impression that Britain is falling apart at the seams.

Interesting list, and I'm surprised by most of them, but part of the reason for that is that literally no-one uses email addresses like that.

It varies a lot throughout the UK. There plenty of places where cars are guaranteed to stop if you so much as look at a zebra crossing, and they will wait, as they are obliged to, until you're full off the other end too, not zoom on th

That's not an attempt to make her feel good about herself. I suspect gpt has erroneously taken that from the subsequent dialog. Clearly both answers 4 and 5 are wrong here.

I don't think it's uncivil though to say that there are in fact right and wrong answers and that some people's points of view are only valid insomuch as any point of view is, but they are still wrong. It's wrong to censo

If that were an acceptable solution we wouldn't need your warning in the first place would we?

You think that's in any way equivalent to turning the works over wholesale to a bunch of unhinged "sensitivity readers" who see fit to remove the word black when describing the BFG's cloak or Danny's father's t

I certainly wouldn't patronise a publisher who saw fit to put any such warning in one of Roald Dahl's books.

But now, finally, the disbenefits of rampant house price inflation are starting to be shared by everyone, rather than by only those locked out of the leverage-fueled bonanza. The huge cohort of winners have done so well out of it that it is

If anyone wants an education in why " slowly burning the explosive" isn't as mad an approach to disarming a bomb as it sounds, please do see the incredibly well informed responses I was rewarded with when I raised a quizzica

This was while they were attempting to disarm the bomb using the technique of " slowly burning the explosive", which in my obviously completely inexpert opinion, I wouldn't have recommended.

The very notion of fact-checked seems deeply politicised these days and instantly raises my suspicions about the agenda of the checker. It's not like the old days of Snopes categorising memes and urban legends, but more often than no
