Bay leaves. Mindless junk for middle-class gastronomes. Whatever flavour this foliage implants in your food, it is surely not worth it to have a bunch of laurel leaf litter swimming about in your dish. Get rid.
and I would add Capers, disgusting things.
Capers are lovely. Least you can eat them. Agree that Bay leaves are pointless.

And cardamom pods!!!!! It's always me that ends up with them. And you don't realise until you bite down on the barstewards and it's like someone's poi pouree has just exploded in your mouth. FFS!!!!
another hate, they seem to keep polluting ready meal curries with them.
People (young people) that say ‘can’t be asked’’….arghhhh
My 63 year old friend has said that for years and I always assumed she didn’t want to say the arse word. Do young people think it’s actually asked?!
We had that debate on here some while ago. I'd heard it as 'asked' long, long before I'd ever heard it as 'arsed', but when we had the debate here I was in a very small minority. I see there's considerable discussion online about it, and I doubt it will ever be resolved, but I note that someone contributing to that debate calls themself Burger Boy. Who'd have thought a high flyer like Keohane would have such an interest in British idioms?
I don't think Ricky Jones (Labour Councillor) being found not guilty of encouraging violent disorder is going to help calm down any accusations of two-tier justice.
The father-of-four and grandfather told the court he felt “horrified” after realising what he had said.
“When I had time to view the footage after the demonstration, I was shocked at what I had actually said,” he told jurors.
The jury also heard a medical report by experts from the prosecution and defence agreed that Jones “suffers from a number of neurodivergent challenges” – including “impaired verbal comprehension potentially leading to misunderstanding the impact of his words” and “slower cognitive processing meaning he may not have evaluated the situation in real time”.

This defence is no better than Lucy Connelly deleting her facebook post.
Whoever advised Lucy to plead guilty is an idiot of the highest order.

I don't recall her “suffer[ing] from a number of neurodivergent challenges” – including “impaired verbal comprehension potentially leading to misunderstanding the impact of [her] words” and “slower cognitive processing meaning [she] may not have evaluated the situation in real time”.
Please feel free to show me the evidence to put me right.
Oh give me a break. He's intelligent enough to be an elected Labour Councillor. He's intelligent enough to know that promoting the slitting of throats is, on balance, a bad thing.
Excuses for acting like a cnut getting out of hand. As a fellow esteemed poster once said, people have gotten away with being punched in the face far too much.
To be fair I don't think he had much of a defence in this instance. He clearly said an idiotic thing and it was very possible someone in the crowd could meet someone he was referring to and take action based on what he said. The likelihood of an audience to actually come into contact with the people being threatened is an explicit part of the law on inciting violence. Its the part that meant Bob Vylan were not guilty of inciting violence. In this case I think his defence was weak. But to suggest the jury was somehow biased or influenced by government is ridiculous.
I don't think there is any argument that this or anything else is two tier justice. Just look at the nearly 700 people arrested for sitting down holding signs saying "I oppose genocide" vs the groups of people doing the nazi salute in front of police at the recent far right riots and bot even being arrested or followed up on.

FFS!
It was more the foreign language it was written in that annoyed me.
