They're wanting the government to cut the fuel duty to help with the costs. At least that's what I've read of Irish based communities.
Has the Irish government done something specifically to make the fuel-price increases worse? It's not clear to me from the article what exactly they want.
There's an incredible documentary on YouTube about Project Mercury, I'd highly recommend watching it you're into the development of the US Space programme. It's over 2 hours 30mins, but it's so well put together.
Why wouldn’t Israel have a free spy plane fly for them?
I'm sure Israel can spare a single drone to fly over Lebanon, they don't need to use anyone else to do that for them.
That and breaking into a military base and damaing hardware.
The UK has been criticising Israel for attacking Lebanon though.
Like I said, if Israel wanted recon they can just use their own drones. Seems like people are jumping to the conclusion that we're gathering intel for Israel rather than collecting our own Intel to get an idea of what's going on.
Israel would use their own drones. Why use the RAF? Seems more likely it's the UK gathering intel on what Israel is doing.
The reason for doing so is that we have already met and exceeded all Military objectives
Ok, so you don't need a ceasefire, you need to just fucking leave.
It's likely that most acts decent enough to headline are already fully booked for the summer.
International law is totally meaningless unless there's people actually enforcing it.
It was OK, nice to have a long weekend to spend with the family!
My dad has been stressing me out, he's clearly in need of living somewhere like a care home or retirement village, and can easily afford it, but he literally blanks me whenever I raise it with him. Like, I'll talk to him face to face and he says nothing as if I'm not talking to him at all. No "I'll think about it", nothing. It's frustrating because whenever there's an issue, he'll call me and I need to take time out of my working day to drive over to his, sort out his shit (somtimes literally) and drive back. I know it sounds cold, but next time, I'm going to just call the his carers next time something happens and he'll need to wait for them. If he was in a care home he'd receive round the clock assistance, and even more so, some company.
Rant over, I'm loving the warmer, sunnier days! Finally mowed what little grass we have in the garden, sorted out the plant pots and just tidied up the back garden. Actually got a couple of very short runs in too, and after putting ice packs on my calves for a while after, I'm not feeling anything... yet. So I'm hopeful that doing that works, and I can start building up to doing more running again.

It doesn't mention anything about price gouging though, only that global fuel prices have gone up.
