I believe individually packaged tablets actually do help reduce overdoses because you can't just chug the whole bottle in one go. Yes it's more wasteful but it does save lives.

We're all adults here, the context is perfectly civil in my book. Never censor yourself, you're not a newspaper subject to broadcasting regulations. If you want to be profane then go fucking nuts!

Please explain the current inequalities black and ethic minorities face.

I wish I could also thank you for a proper reply, but it really seems like you're taking the piss. If you don't even understand that racism is a thing, then it's not really worth the effort of trying to explain any of this to you.

Research has shown that students from Black minority and ethnic (BME) backgrounds are less likely than white students to achieve a first or upper second class degree, despite high level entry qualifications. Deep rooted inequalities and systemic racism contribute to this. Furthermore, this can lead to differences in employment outcomes between white and BME students long after graduation.

Imagine we have a student from a disadvantaged background. They win a place at university and they receive the tuition fee loan and maintenance loan from student finance. In the majority of cases, these loans will not cover their living costs and this is why 67% of students now have to work part-time while they study. If you cannot rely on the bank of Mum & Dad, the pressure of studying and working to cover your costs such as food, books, equipment, travel and accommodation can take its toll on your studies. 79% of students now say they worry about money constantly.

Of course, scholarships do not have to be exclusively offered to BME students. They can also be used to achieve other diversity targets, such as attracting women into STEM or disadvantaged students in to the professions.

Are you pretending to misunderstand because you're a racist, or do you actually misunderstand because you're an idiot?

Family Guy, if it was Simpsons they'd be yellow instead of white/pink

Only works if you pronounce "dune" like "doon", but I'm not going to let pronunciation get in the way of a good pun

 

Lavatory paper, toilet tissue, bog roll, bumwad, arse wipe, shit tickets; we all need it but I can't find a good one for a reasonable price.

Obviously I don't want the tracing paper you get in a public toilet, but it seems a waste to pay for the quadruple-velvet perfume-soaked premium nonsense. Supermarket own brand is soft enough but tends to fall apart. Who Gives A Crap is environmentally friendly but their basic stuff disintegrates immediately and their premium stuff is even more expensive than the fancy Andrex.

And no, there's no room for a bidet.

 

Do any of them know what the word "liberal" actually means?
