Highest prices in the world. Taking back control to ensure the corporations have massive profits, at our expense.

To be fair, that's what most people call them.
Hardly anyone says "British Airways". They're just called BA, like you'd say the US, instead of United States.
I'm not from the UK, but I understand if the abbreviation doesn't make initial sense to someone outside Europe.

Reply to Woman single-handedly takes on BA and wins by je97
I had booked a trip for my son’s eighteenth birthday to Bonaire for June 2020. Obviously, everything was canceled.
The travel agency I used, retroactively changed their refund policy to zero refunds regardless of cancellation time (before it was a full refund if canceled with 90 days notice) without notifying clients in March 2020.
Luckily, my credit card company took them to task and got my money back since they both retroactively changed the policy without notice and couldn’t provide a signed statement from me accepting the change in policy (which they lied and claimed to have).
But the largest expense was the first class airfare I’d booked with American Airlines. And they’re normally not great at refunding anything. However, since the island was still closed the entire month of June 2020, they ent ahead and completely refunded the entire amount of spent booking the flights and also gave me a nominal voucher for a future flight.
Sometimes airlines do the right thing. Rarely, but they do.

So far in this thread we’ve got people who enjoy seeing animals exploited. Par for the course on Reddit. Carry on.

Reading the article would tell you some of that (specifically that it was for 25th December).
In general the UK is now managing 40%+ renewable on a yearly basis, which is pretty good going. The big proviso is that that doesn't count the gas boilers most homes use for heating.

And yet somehow we have an energy crisis at the same time, with prices sky high due to the oil and gas markets 🤔

"The British government have stated that everything is going great"
I'm British. This is some party-line bullshit. Vote labour?

I’ve found that you can save time by going out and making 4 friends from scratch, introducing them to OSRS, and then doing BA with them, compared to playing with randos.

if you have a hypoxic brain injury like me you can forget a great deal of the plot of his books and then read them again. Life after being dead has been weird.

Paywalls and advertising aside, the truly terrifying takeaway is: Run, hide, it matters not; Heinz will find you.
I, for one, welcome our condiment shilling overlords and look forward to their tasty reign.
