Cooking supper this evening, chopping up my veg I suddenly realised that blocking these under 18 year olds from buying knives online just means they'll have to use one of the many sharp long knives floating around their parents' kitchen at home. No proof of ID needed to swipe one before heading out to ...

And yet the nearest shop have stopped selling craft knives because of police advice so now repairing something has to wait until after I go into town to a hobby shop.

I don't understand how demanding two forms of ID will help when Amazon don't check the one form of ID currently required. It'll just mean we can't buy knives with only our driving licence (or whatever ID you usually carry) and have to prepare. For a flipping craft knife, pruning knife, picnic knife or whatever. Hell, I got ID'd buying a putty knife last year. It has no point and you can't stab anything with it! This is lunacy! Probably get ID'd before the chippy will give you a wooden spork soon!

Or people will carry two bits of ID routinely, which will be a great help for identity thieves.

Morons.

We don't know what the terms of the 'deal' were. Were they good terms for the UK or not? How can the UK government ensure that the UK's gradual realignment with the EU is on terms that are as favorable as possible because, make no mistake, this is a negotiation and there will be other EU countries trying to ensure that any deal favours them.

Why do you feel the UK should grab the first deal offered to them?

I don't.
But outright rejection doesn't seem smart either.
Negotiation sems the operative word here....

I'm not sure if joining a customs union with the EU makes much sense. We already have a partial arrangement for tariff-free trade in the TCA, and the ability to strike crappy trade deals which wouldn't be possible in a customs union, and it wouldn't solve the problems with non-tariff barriers. We really need to rejoin the single market, which means rejoining the EU.

All those who are still working, a bit short of your contributions. Now you'll have more time to pay into the black hole pot.

Retirement age of 71 is being discussed.

If you get there , you won't have much time left to enjoy or spend the little paltry pension

I've no intention of retiring. I enjoy my job too much. I'd get bored. ^_^

I'll go part-time though or do my own thing but it'll be similar to what I'm doing now.

And I have a nice pension pot as well.
