I love the rain and cloudiness! It's peaceful (flash flooding aside, that can suck depending on where you live)

As far as I'm concerned I'm not a grown up until I have a washing machine and dishwasher of my own.

This is why I'm flying to Edinburgh soon rather than taking the train (like I would prefer to). So much cheaper

How would you react if someone prints Jesus Christ, hanging on the cross with bloody hands and feet onto your favourite beer. With a face of pure agony and some letters addressing charity?

That sounds quite metal tbh for beer. I would give it a go.

Food and drink are incredibly political in general, this is just one aspect of it.

That seems so unnecessary. Why do they want to interfere with screen density??

I'll be honest, I think I understood three words of your OP. Sounds like the general gist though is Woo so great 😃

Thanks for all your efforts, glad someone knows what they're doing

But I know the public at large isn’t rational

This is the problem. That and the media, they love setting people against each other

Yeah this is definitely a risk if this platform keeps growing. I can definitely see this being a reason to switch off downvotes (some instances have already)

He sounds like a character!

I agree, this needs to be a data driven decision rather than something driven by the optics. Sadly some people don't stop to look at the data before becoming outraged

It sounds like members of the public complained to be honest. I am surprised a council was able to do the pilot in the first place given how regulated they are. It's great that they did, just can't imagine it looks good to the folk paying council tax in the area. Councils get a lot of grief for not doing enough as it is, to then know they're getting a 4 day week would definitely rile up some parts of society.

I think we should be piloting this across all sectors, but for a council to be one of the early participants is a risky move.
