Anyone else found Charter Savings to be very slow at paying to nominated accounts?

I cant see even the die hard followers sticking with SNP now. I read Mr Salmond is now sticking the knife in, adding his disappointment that the party is in decline and it wasnt like that in his day. Politicians... professional bull shitters. The die hards will always remain unmoved by any conceivable outrage. The soft voters on the margin, however, are a completely different prospect - and elections are won on the margin.

It seems a bit odd using a forensic tent in an alleged financial crime, no? perhaps they are looking for the skeletons in the cupboard Lol, whilst not beyond the (literal) realms of possibility, I suspect it's perhaps something to do with: www.lawsociety.org.uk/topics/anti-money-laundering/pepsPresume it applies in Scotland.

The new MOTD format is precisiely how I've been watching it for years, saves me a lot of mouse clicks.
Match of the Day viewing figures up by 500,000Lolz (though I suspect simple rubbernecking may explain the rise).

I get the error message when I try to log in but if I then click on 'ablrate.com' on the top left of the same page, I'm in to my account. Weird.

The reporter clearly hasn't read the BBC all hands memo that everything from now on is Elon Musk's fault.
Not nearly as mad as it sounds. He is as dangerous as anyone in the world and in a non-apartheid democracy, unlike where he grew up, he totally believes that money trumps justice and the law. He's probably glad that he's not a russian oligarch although Putler might wish he was given that his massive brain has made room to become a military expert as well. I'm looking forward to his fall in true reggie perrin style.
Not really mad at all. The crazies are really frightened of him. Why? Because he's uncancellable in the conventional sense. It's kind of ironic, given that he's a classic liberal.

"The European drugs regulator says it does not want a purpose-built red-light district near its post-Brexit headquarters in Amsterdam. [...]
The EMA moved its headquarters to Amsterdam's southern Zuidas district in 2019 after the UK left the EU".
Are they seriously trying to blame Brexit for this? The reporter clearly hasn't read the BBC all hands memo that everything from now on is Elon Musk's fault.

I guess she shouldn't have wandered off. Even if that is legally allowed (not sure in the case of pedestrians?) the decent thing to do would be to check on the person. Not doing so shouldn't carry a manslaughter charge though. Swearing at cyclist whether simultaneously gesturing, getting in the way to slow it down on the pavement or not ought not to put you in prison at all. A long winded way of saying do we not believe in accidents anymore? Someone must be 100% to blame and punished? If we didnt the car driver would have been prosecuted as well. She was to blame, if she acted normally and stepped to one side the accident wouldnt have occurred. Her actions were a major cause of the death, she made a decision to do that, it wasnt required or even justified. If she had tripped and knocked the cyclist into the road that would have been an genuine accident. Where there's a tragic death involved, it's always polarising to discuss the wider underlying issues but it's nonetheless important. Why should the norm be that that the pedestrian step to one side? Imagine, for a minute, what might have happened if the defendant hadn't shouted but just kept walking, and the cyclist had simply veered into the road. Or the cyclist had hit the defendant and fallen into the road as a result, What would be the legal position then? Would there have been a prosecution? I suspect probably not. There is no right nor expectation, legally, for a cyclist to travel unimpeded (just like the rest of us). Pavement cycling needs to be further legislated to make it fit for the 21st century. This sentence, I suspect, was mainly for leaving the scene and giving 'dishonest account' of events. Additionally, some British judges have a tendency to deal more harshly with perceived 'oiks' when the victim is elderly or gentile.
