• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Boris Johnson asked experts if you could kill Covid by blowing hairdryer up nose⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Johnson has been vaccinated against COVID several times, and it was on the news at the time. The hot air thing was probably before vaccines were available, although this article does not make that clear.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Britons have started handing in XL bullies to be put down, MPs told⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If banning does not work, how do you explain the significant drop in attacks by breeds that are already banned, whereas XL Bullies, previously not banned, account proportionately for far more attacks?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Russell Brand admits ‘extraordinary and distressing week’ and floats media conspiracy over sex assault allegations⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  He has brought it all upon himself, by his past behaviour.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Keir Starmer set to reject EU overtures to join revamped bloc as 'non-starter'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It is tricky. My assumption was the opposite, that this would help Labour win the next election, which is why Starmer is doing it. But what do I know?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AITA for missing my brothers gender reveal?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  So, simply declining an invitation because of a prior engagement now warrants engaging the AITA collective social mind? Get a grip!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨While you were sleeping, #windEnergy reached 59% of the National Grid's electricity demand⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I should sleep more often.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Brexit: Labour will seek re-write of deal, Starmer says⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  And take a huge risk of not winning the General Election.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Road casualties have become normal in Britain. But there is another way⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The B roads the poster mentions are very likely rural and not residential, which default to the national speed limit of 60 mph for singe lane roads. Residential roads in the UK are usually 30 mph, sometimes 20 mph.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anarchy revealed inside prison-break Wandsworth jail where prisoners call the shots⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Anyone fancy a day-trip to Wandsworth Prison Museum?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Missing Prisoner Daniel Khalife arrested by police in Chiswick, West London⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  “Super solder” is such a niche super power to have - he can fix your circuit board up, lickety-split.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lords to debate mandating swift bricks in new homes in England⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Much more expensive, and how would you guarantee that it had been sustainably sourced?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨British Museum curator, 56, sacked after gold jewellery and gems worth tens of millions disappeared was world authority and one of institution's 'Monuments Men' who helped fight international looting⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I could not find this story on the BBC.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨England women through to World Cup final⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  As a Brit, I feel your pain, as I have many times watched England being knocked out of tournaments in the late stages, sometimes playing at home too. I sure your time will come too. Kerr’s goal was a cracker.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC Game Recommendation for a Broken Arm?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Total War. The campaign is turn based; although battles are real-time, you can auto-resolve them instead, which will remove any real-time elements from the game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where are you? Can you move?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  “If a person is resurrected” then they are Jesus, or proof that there is an after-life, and miracles do happen. On the other hand, people are *resuscitated” all the time by modern medicine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Andrew Malkinson: Man who spent 17 years in jail for crime he didn't commit won't have to repay prison living costs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Chalk is my local MP. Although he is a rising star in the Conservative Party, he holds a marginal seat which was Liberal Democrat for a long time, until Chalk won it. I will be surprised if he retains it next time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The plastic lawn backlash: why people are pulling up their fetid fake grass⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Imagine having to try and clean off a runny dog turd that is slowly sinking into your plastic lawn.
