Both fuel switches were selected back on. I guess there wasn’t enough time. But there are other things that can cut the fuel off irrespective of the position of the switches. I hope they can get to the bottom of it.

From what I read it said the switches where moved from on to off  which only means one of two scenarios, a very major hugmounous human error or a deliberate act. 

 

Either way a lot of people died due to an idiot. Tbh I'm surprised that automation/ai hasn't taken more of a roll in the aviation industry.

was looking for the actual evidence/links to the source but it looks like the telegraph isn't giving that info out. There's no way that they could just increase prices only due to a water shortage. Water shortage in this area, everyone's water costs are going up! Yeah.  It's just click bait imo.

 

🤔 That story is doing the rounds today. I hope you are right. Nothing would surprise me though, end of the day the duty to the shareholders is the number one priority. 
It wont effect me as I run off a private water supply/ bore hole. 
 

Clck Bait ??

Yes click bait. 

They arent going to hike up your bills just because the weather got hot from what i can see.

 

The problem with all these headlines is that they dont provide a direct link to the article/direct source, they just give you a little snippet that sucks people in.

Yeah I wouldn't trust them to try it on either as we, OK apart from you and those that have a well are a captive audience although I know thats not the correct term but I cant think of the correct one!  dont have a choice.

 

From what I can read a family of four usually uses 16 baths of water a day, if you use 18 baths of water in a day in a dry season then you will pay more per cubic metre above that. Its hardly what the headlines state. So a big nothing burger unless you are filling up the family pool everyday.

 

They can get to fook though as they have mismanaged the water network for years and still get there directors bonuses from what I read.

We shall see as I say, no need for another long reply just some patience. I’m sure The Times, The Sun, The Telegraph and The Express must have got it wrong.

Very common up here in rural locations.

My impression is that the social media revolt against covid vaccines has lead to a decrease in parents getting their kids to have MMR. Could be completely unrelated.

Agreed. 

 

Measles is totally preventable. 

 

This is what happens when people believe what halfwits and bad actors tell them about medicines.

Always been the odd death from Measles Mark. Both before Covid and after. 
I think 2019 was a particularly bad year for cases and deaths. I’d say that’s before Covid wouldn’t you. 
As for halfwits and bad actors, that’s the Mrs two days after the Covid jab, excruciating head aches and eye pain, leading to what you see in the pic,  covered in random bruises and in bed rough as hell for two to three days. 
That reaction to a vaccine promoted with hysterical zeal and lies tends to put people off a bit.

If parents are not getting there kids vaccinated I’d say it has to be a minuscule number, and more fool them.

Exactly the point.
