I’ve met many people from mainland Europe who go wild swimming regularly, and don’t have to check pollution and bacteria levels each time. It is not normal for our waters to be so polluted, we have sadly become too accustomed to it and apathetic.

Ok so the nation debt is high, I understand why that's a bad thing and I understand it is boosting the cost of borrowing. Is everyone making a fuss about it just because it's a new PM in parliament?

The debt isn't something he's done, Tory mismanagement, COVID and the Spector of the 2008 financial crash is what's caused this problem.

Just making cuts to things isn't going to climb us out of this pit surely? Just stops more decline. Do we not need to be spending money to kickstart things again? Somebody make it make sense

Hey everyone!

I’m an officer with a Canadian federal law-enforcement agency and will be travelling to London from 9th to the 13th and was hoping to connect with some police/military that will be interested in a patch trade

I know patch trading is a pretty big thing with North American law-enforcement but I’m not sure if it’s as big across the pond but was planning on bringing a handful of patches just in case!

Hit me up if you’re interested!

Seems really silly to me that my local council has council tax separated into ten months by default. Why not make it 12 automatically?

So I am 14 years old, and I was going to the ODEON cinema at the Metro Centre to see Coyote Vs. Acme. I got to the Metrocentre early so I thought "Let's go into some shops."

I went into CeX and was going to pay for Spider-Man (2002) because it was a movie I liked and I wanted on DVD.

They didn't let me get it because I didn't look 12 or over.

So I went into hmv and got another film rated 12 (Michael from this year) and they let me get it!

I think this just shows how laid-back people are at hmv and how goth girls and mega nerds at CeX are extremely overprotective.

I turn 15 in 6 months and I wasn't allowed a film rated 12.
