  1. A lot of “could” and “might” conjecture in that piece. I’d love to know if they bothered to verify their computer simulations against actual real world data, like any good science would be. People have been hunting the biggest specimens with firearms for 200 years, way more intensively than today in most cases. It absolutely can have negative effects and hunting organisations should adapt management practices to valid science. Is that valid science?
  2. To be fair they’ve done well by me. Recognised my potential and pulled me out of the uk team and now got me working directly for them within a small strategic team that are tasked with driving meaningful transformation across the group. They’ve given me the opportunity to do my job properly that I have wanted for the past two years.
  3. I haven’t found the culture to be defined by country, more company. I’m also working under uk legal terms and conditions. But certainly within this group I prefer working for the Swedish team than the uk team. But that’s not so much national culture as it is team culture.
  4. I work for a Swedish company and a lot of them are hunters, including the Group CEO. They’re a good bunch and it’s alien working for a company that has a bit of a hunting culture. I’d be all over that bear hunting!
  5. Sensible, mentioning me would be seen as an escalation.
  6. Not sure if someone’s already posted this but someone has finally brought out a ev pick-up.

  7. Is that really surprising at all? The government needs tax revenue for its budget. When it cuts tax in one area to bring about change, it either makes up the short fall somewhere else or it waits for the change to take effect and then makes up for the losses. The same will happen with the TV license. It won’t truly be abolished unless they shut down the bbc or change the way it’s financed to match ch4. Instead they’ll stop the license and we’ll all be celebrating that we won, while they bump up some other tax in a stealth way to make up the shortfall.
  8. Glen Coe pass (Scotland) or Pedn Vounder beach (Cornwall).
  9. I don’t but thanks for bumping this. I think I’ll read it again! Let me know if you find anything on it.
  10. Then I’m on board with you. Risk of ‘mission creep’ with laws should be a concern of anyone. But also, in this instance at least it was applied to people who did carry out civil disobedience, rather than age old protest.
  11. The cornerstone of western democracy that is the freedom to assemble and speak, does not extend to civil disobedience! They’re two different things!
  12. I meant the right for citizens to use greater force without fear of repercussions. The British government obviously use it when they feel they can.
  13. They’re making an example of them because their ‘protesting’ (it’s not), will eventually and quite naturally lead to reasonable people doing something criminal out of frustration. It’s not the British way to simply legislate to allow that so they’re cracking down before it gets messy. I’d prefer to have more right to use force but that isn’t the British way.
  14. I wouldn’t be surprised if you couldn’t just rake that with a pick and pop it straight open. I managed the same to my old front door with absolutely no skill and a cheap pick set off Amazon.
  15. Let 1 para do their law an order thing

    DPF?

    I don’t know what all the arguing is about Smashing out the dpf and mapping it out the ecu is done primarily to resolve or prevent dpf replacement due to blockage. Which costs a fortune. Seems to occur less frequently than ad blue or egr issues and is more costly to do. Both of those can be done with just an ecu map in many instances.
  17. In industry a white hat hacker is a type of cyber security professional. I’m not sure that’s what this is though. I think they’ve run with the same analogy, as you suggest.
  18. I wonder if Don trusts the USSS now or if he has the option to build his own private security team. They could probably pull together a very decent team given his supporter base.
  19. Why Bodyguards Wear Black Sunglasses WWW.WESTMINSTERSECURITY.CO.UK So, why do bodyguards wear dark sunglasses? Is it for operational reasons, to look threatening or...
  20. Far from the first time two organisations within the US haven’t had clear comms that’s led to disaster.
  21. Less than 24 hrs after a former US president was nearly assassinated and you’re all already off on one arguing over the UK death penalty f***ing hawk tuah got more bandwidth!
  22. Don’t the USSS have a bit of history for being a bit unprofessional at times? I mean shit happens, so we can’t judge yet. They responded decisively!
  23. Had a pair fly over real low a few years ago now while we were shooting in Lincolnshire.
  24. He’ll get incinerated like the rest of us mate. Well, you’ll be alright given a moderate south westerly.
