    [Politics] The NSC 'up all night' election night *** OFFICIAL MATCH THREAD ***

    It's definitely true. You have to go through Wales due to Kenilworth and Southam staying blue but it can be done. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election/2024/uk/results Just looked up that the Tory party was started in 1679 so that might be the answer. Either that or 1832 - the year of The...

    I wonder when it was last possible to walk from Brighton to the Scottish border without going through a Tory constituency?

    [Politics] Brexit

    I'm in the wine business and we are all very excited that from the 19th September we will be able to sell wine in pints. The fact that no-one intends to do this and it would be very costly to do so is neither here nor there. We could if we wanted to. We will also be allowed to make and sell...

    [TV] The Apprentice 2024

    This exactly. There are clearly rules about phone use and all sorts of other things to increase the chances of abject failure. For example, why wouldn't the men's project manager on the corporate away day task have just phoned and said, "we're going to be a bit late, hold off on the cooking."...

    [Travel] NSC hive-mind – holiday destination!

    Try Croatia. Somewhere near Trogir might suit you. Trogir itself is a fascinating Venetian walled town with lots of restaurants and bars. Not far from Split - home of Diocletian's palace for your dustiness. The sea is very calm and there are lots of boats available for hire. Only possible...

    [Football] You are the ref - bet you don't get them all right.

    Yes, I didn't think the game should be abandoned, I just didn't think that you had to equalise once the shootout was underway as that is not in the Laws (although I see that it is in the FAQ).

    [Football] You are the ref - bet you don't get them all right.

    Thanks very much for doing this KSC. Could you tell me where the answers come from as I would argue that this one is incorrect? The law is very specific that numbers must be equalised before the shootout but there is no mention of further equalisation once the shootout is under way so I thought...

    [News] Benjamin Zephaniah RIP

    I first saw Benjamin Zephaniah in 1984 at a concert in Brockwell Park. I had gone for The Damned, The Fall and to save the GLC (that went well!) but it is the memory of BZ that remains most vivid. He opened my eyes and changed the way I saw the world.
