We will queue for anything. However we won’t generally complain openly if someone jumps the line... just mutter under our breath.

I guess you should ask yourself is business success worth the risk of your relationship failing?

Indeed, this should not be portrayed as a competitive rate really, it's just the price of super convenience.

It's not even priced for convenience. It's not in a well-connected area, and you can get basically any other flatshare with all bills included for equal or less price.

It's good there are different options, but this would be very unpalatable for me. The "anonymity" of these big spaces leads to very anti social behaviour in my experience. Luckily in 10 years in London I never shared with more than 1 other person and now own my flat.

Climbing, running, playing guitar, reading, hanging out.

In the US can you not order food for delivery directly from supermarket, same for restaurants?

I would have thought in the UK Tesco, Sainsburys etc do as well as any delivery only services (Ocado, Amazon Fresh etc).

I would have guessed direct restaurant orders are as large as justeat/uber eats style services. They would certainly deserve a place on the pie chart...

I also dont believe the average US consumer spends $105/month on meal kits...

> In the US can you not order food for delivery directly from supermarket, same for restaurants?

I think it's available in larger, older cities (e.g. on the East Coast), but in the rest of the country it's a lot rarer. I think maybe it's much the same reason we no longer have bellboys, ushers or elevator attendants: minimum wage & payroll taxes rose to the point that it wasn't cost-effective for grocers or customers.

In the UK we have higher minimum wage, and higher petrol duties, and yet we manage to have extensive supermarket delivery.

And it's been happening for many years - the first "online" shopping from home happened in the UK, from Tesco, in 1984.

Do we?

I think that the majority of the country is generally less comfortable with the idea of coalitions/minority governments/power sharing than many other parliamentary democracies where those things happen more regularly.

Consider the run-up to the 2015 GE when it looked like Labour/Lib Dems/SNP might be able to form a majority coalition even though the Conservatives were likely to be the largest party - there was a lot of sneering at the idea of a "coalition of the losers". That circumstance arises quite frequently and is largely accepted in many other countries, as can be seen from the results of Denmark's recent elections.

Not all of us, but the majority of us do.

and some google api websites that I personally block because it makes my internet healthier :-)

There was no X and hitting Escape as instructed didn't do anything either. Was able to click outside to make it go away but still..

The X is way up in the upper right. Not a great design.

I didn't get a popup.

I think it appears only if you scrolled a bit

Dating isnt simply a matching problem... maybe these people don't want to connect with a real person?

Well then they could be fake couples together

Maybe this is what actually happens, but they don't tell anyone ;)

The conclusion is classic Telegraph- where conservative values trump research or real life. A lot of their content is written to keep their readers happy- "I know my kids".
