This is a normal post Well,
the thing weighted a ton with the turret in and so couldn't carry the same amount of fuel plus forward guns plus ammunition. The plan was for the plane to get under the bombers and shoot up.

Trouble was, when it was conceived, the only threat to the UK was the bombers - the fighter escort simply didn't have the range to come from Germany.
It was only after it had been put into production that Adolf had been an utter cad and occupied France so the bombers had fighter escort which were more than a match for the poor Defiants.

This is a normal post They did try that in WW1 I think
I think it was on the SE5a to fight balloons (they being higher up than the maximum altitude it could reach). The gun was fixed on a track that tilted it back 90° in order to reload the drum as standard and they did try to fire it straight up in the reload position to get the extra height.

The problem was, the gun jammed a lot when fired that way plus the ammo was incendiary - against the rules to use them in normal dogfights (yes, there were rules!) The pilot needed to be carrying special balloon mission documents in case of capture by the enemy. If they got caught without them, they'd be executed rather than be taken prisoner

By WW2 I think two-seaters were much more powerful and fighters much more suited to shooting bombers (which had better blind spot protection)

A few years ago, Sarah affixed a mini-banner to the bottom of a fence around a basketball pitch - a hang-out for young men, in a part of South London notorious for gang violence.
On it was stitched a quotation from the film director, Martin Scorsese: "It seems to me that any sensible person must see that violence does not change the world, and if it does, then only temporarily."
She hoped the kids would notice it, find it surprising and understand that someone cared about them.'

Neither of those were tragedies. They were the direct result of human instigated violence. Grenfell doesn't fit into that pocket, it was a horrific accident (made worse by hubris sure) not something that a person instigated on purpose.

"tragedy

Noun

An event causing great suffering, destruction, and distress, such as a serious accident, crime, or natural catastrophe."


Also accident?

The Whirlpool fridge freezer that probably started it are part of a massive consumer safety scandal. whirlpool are refusing to do a recall on them despite causing loads of fires.

Combine that with the flammable cladding that was put on just so people in the area with much better housing didn't have to look at an eye sore and you've got a bit of blame to sling around.

This is a normal post Nationalised industries...
... such as the ones that many other EU member states including Germany currently have quite successfully and legally.

Interesting detailed discussion on those here: www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/sam-fowles/nationalisation-is-not-ag_b_8231336.html - the writer says nationalisation is specifically protected by Art. 345 of the TFEU: "The Treaties shall in no way prejudice the rules in Member States (MS) governing the system of property ownership," and sets out the confusion arising with possible conflict between that and Art. 106.

This is not the only thing I've read flatly denying that Corbyn's nationalisation plan relies on leaving the EU.

More broadly, if we can just go ahead and set fire to everything (as currently) I'm fairly sure we could, instead, just go ahead and not set fire to everything but still nationalise a bunch of industries. In fact, that would be my preferred plan. YM, obviously, MV.

Left and Right is more a spectrum, a broad church. Besides pro-eu post-Ref is different to pre-Ref. I mean if being pro-EU is anti all this Brexit bullshit sign me up.

This is a link post Goldrunner music - Classic Atari stuff
Following the F/A18 Interceptor music below, I felt obliged to share one of my faves from that era. Always felt that Franz Ferdinand somehow borrowed strongly from this track. Might just be me.
Also, posting from my iPhine so probably won’t embed. Soz for that.
Any other cool soundtracks to share?

This is a link post Space balls -- real ones
Dodgy-looking site and a bit of a sensationalist-sounding intro. It's not what it seems at first though. I thought it was interesting.
