Don’t think anyone is blaming the tiger. The article says the tiger is unharmed and I’d assume they would have killed it by now if they were going to.

… the other provides wrong answers…
Is education really that bad in Brighton?
- Comment on Thousands of illegal ghost plates on cars revealed by new cameras 2 weeks ago:
Why comment on a BBC article in the United Kingdom community when you’re clearly not from the UK? We’ve had ANPR cameras for ages, speed cameras, bus lane enforcement, congestion, and clean air zones. There’s really not the controversy with them here as there is in America for example.
Plus it’s a minority of drivers that use ghost plates/evading measures. It will always be an arms race with those people. Speed cameras specifically can improve safety for the majority of road users.

And go where? The industry isn’t exactly booming. Plus you’d be competing with everyone that just got laid off.

- Comment on Billionaire Manchester United owner says he has lost confidence in the UK 3 weeks ago:
Well fuck off then. I’d say sell off your share in Man Utd but I’m scared someone competent would buy it and they wouldn’t be the laughing stock they’ve been for the last 10-15 years.
- Comment on great to know! 4 weeks ago:
Apple being shit at AI might actually be a blessing. When the bubble pops, they won’t have lost so much, and until then they can get AI companies to pay to be the Siri model (not sure if that’s what they are actually doing though).
- Comment on Professor James Orr, Reform UK head of policy, teaches 'ethics' to undergraduates at Cambridge University 5 weeks ago:
Wonder if the media will hound this guy non-stop like Arday?
- Comment on Nigel Farage filmed undercover celebrating secret new foreign donations 5 weeks ago:
He will ditch reform like he did UKIP, then wait around for the next big new wedge issue (or just fabricate one out of thin air). It will be the same grift, and the same people will fall for it everytime

And everyone still on the platform is funding that. All the MPs and journalists that still post there fuel it.
- Comment on Vibe Ruling 1 month ago:
A bit like the entire “Your Party”. Has everyone got a refund yet?
I’m for public ownership of water, but not sure how that solves the shit entering the rivers without massive investment, which would take time to achieve.
There needs to be a plan for all water companies, not just taking over the one in administration. Not excited about my tax money going to help London

Your forgetting the best ones: free used needles and condoms
- Comment on How can we revitalise the high street? 1 month ago:
My one issue with free parking is when it’s in a small town with a single “high street” and the parking is on that street.
Granted it’s not possible everywhere, but having free parking off the high street in car parks around it, for me, is the best approach. Then aim to either restrict parking or pedestrianise the street entirely.
- Comment on ‘Cheap travel is not a defence’: the parents facing court for school absences in England 1 month ago:
When I was at school if you were in say year 7/8/9 with no exams the last few weeks of the school year were almost worthless. Just watching random movies etc. I think school should take that into account much more

- Comment on Wetherspoons pubs ban playing music or taking calls on phone speakers 1 month ago:
It’s shocking that this needs to even be said. I can’t believe there are functioning human adults (and in my experience it’s mostly older people) who are so unaware as to be ok with blasting tik toks at full volume.

Direct debits should be switched automatically, but yeah agree about having to change it everywhere else

That’s MaaS. Sex is multiplayer only

SaaS was added in like the first ever patch. Cloud based SaaS is still in beta though
- Comment on Games with singleplayer campaigns that let me fight/kill nazis? 2 months ago:
It’s such a goofy game that hasn’t really aged well (in both gameplay and writing) but I absolutely love it
- Comment on Banksy works cost public almost £150,000 2 months ago:
And it’s cost double that to have a sham by-election in Clacton. Sounds a lot, but a drop in the ocean of public spending
- Comment on Cambridge academics reject university’s attempt to end row over Jason Arday 2 months ago:
Why is this such a big story? Other than people at Cambridge Uni, who cares? Seen like 5 different articles about it and I just don’t get it

Sir this is a shitpost, we don’t do that here

We’re not finished looking at them yet
- Comment on Birmingham council accused of giving ‘free rein’ to group erecting England flags 2 months ago:
Ignoring them is the right approach. They are doing it hoping for the council the react so they can then claim them as “unpatriotic”. Ignoring it robs them of that and shows them for the racist little men (and it’s almost always men) with way too much time on their hands that they are
- Comment on And still I see no changes 2 months ago:
Much less time
Does not mean no time, but that it will not be the focus so most of the energy and time will be on domestic matters. He might make some changes, not being as friendly to Isreal is probably what will happen. But he isn’t going to suddenly change 180 to what has been policy for the last 2 years.
IWhat I’m trying to get at is that if you expect him to cancel arms deals with Isreal and provide aid to Gaza, then you will be disappointed.
- Comment on And still I see no changes 2 months ago:
He’s also signalled he will spend much less time on foreign affairs compared to Starmer. That to me does not mean the mistakes will be undone
- Comment on And still I see no changes 2 months ago:
Did anyone expect foreign policy changes? Burnham has only really talked about domestic policies which seems to be his focus.
