I don't see how PCC's can be any less party political than the rest of our governmental landscape. Their key role is setting priorities for their police force, and that is a political decision. If I recall correctly they replaced police authorities, which were committees of councillors whose membership reflected the party political makeup of the county (or appropriate other) council.

The fact that my phone keyboard has randomly updated to move the comma from the main typing page and replace it with a question mark, meaning I have to go into a second screen to get to the comma which I use much more frequently than a question mark! This statement is a testament to that.

My work phone grinds my gears in a similar way, as all punctuation is behind a second screen. Android beating Apple for usability as usual...

Trying to work while having endless drilling and dog barking next door. Last summer, we could hardly go in the garden because hammering and dust caused by external work being done by the same neighbours.
If it was essential, maybe. But it's just them poncing the house up yet they still leave bags of dog poo and nappies in their garden for the foxes to take apart.

Those spam Facebook posts that are a list of names preceded by THESE WOMEN WILL HAVE TRIPLETS IN 2021 or THESE MEN ARE THE BEST HUSBANDS. And intelligent people I know posting, "Ooooh, me me me me me, I'm in there, haha," or tagging other people. And wondering if shaking the algorithm up would result in me getting a list of common Muslim or Germanic names instead of common white British Millennial names.

Someone asking me directions from their car window as I'm walking out of a Travelodge.....
I mean, doesn't that suggest I'm not local to the area???
