Capital punishment is prohibited in all circumstances in the UK, that includes times of war. It’s the same across almost all of Europe.

So are you going to produce any data to show that calling the police to someone’s house in the UK put them at a non negligible risk of being killed or injured by those police, or are you not?

Are you just going to keep assuming that America’s issues are universal rather than accept that America is broken?

Seems like it. Hard to know though how it actually feels given the scale of the building will be different, more realistic, from the start.

I have a water resistant smart watch and I take it swimming all of the time. I see lots of others swimming with smartwatches too. Smart watches are usually fitness tracker. I very much care that the watch is water resistant. I care more about that than having a user replaceable battery, which I’m unlikely to replace given that I never did when replaceable batteries were common in phones.

You only have to pay for this mod once.

An artist isn’t going to continue making modifications to a painting once you’ve bought it, not unless you pay them to do so. Presuming they aren’t feeling generous with their time.

Perhaps if you want to enlighten people you should give more than short overly hostile replies to comments?

Oh that sounds somehow more annoying than just having to pay it yourself, seeing as you have to do the calculations yourself anyway.

To be fair it possible to be owed a refund or owe extra tax in Ireland too. If you changed jobs and didn’t inform Revenue they won’t apply tax credits until they know the full story for example. You never have to calculate how much you owe or are due though, at least not for an individual. You just tell them what your salary is, or if you’re claiming a credit.

The UK only offers 2 weeks

In the UK you get up to 52 weeks of maternity leave. Of which 39 weeks is paid, the first 6 weeks of which is at a rate of 90% of your salary. The £172 is then the pay for the remaining 33 weeks. It can be shared with a partner.

In Ireland and I believe most other European countries the tax is just taken out of your salary/wage by your employer and sent to Revenue. So unless you do something taxable outside of a normal wage you largely don’t need to worry about it.

Ah the dangers of Google translate and synonyms. You got the wrong definition for right when translating to Irish, the one you have means correct, deis is the word for right (direction). Clé is left, the h appears in certain contexts for grammatical reasons.
