Indeed, my car won't start unless I hold mine up to the inbuilt camera.
If you're specifically going somewhere that specifically requires it then wallet or no wallet you'd ensure you have it on your person.
All I'm saying is that my method of having a wallet with payment cards and a photo driving licence therein protects me against various forms of administrative failure or mishap, either from myself or others. Boris would have done well to do the same.
I didn't realise the culture wars had extended to wallet carrying.
I'm Pro-wallet. There. I said it.
Tories really taking a battering, but if I'm seeing it right it's not quite what Labour might have hoped. Results seem to be more anti-Tory than wanting to vote Labour.
I don't carry a wallet but I do carry my driving licence around. It just goes in my pocket with my debit card and I don't usually bother with cash.
Dunno why I bother though, can't remember the last time I got IDed for anything.
I don't think there's anybody that actually thinks Labour are the answer to the shitshow this country has become. That's why. They're just hopefully a bit less corrupt and maybe half as useless.
If the war in Palestine continues they will end up a fractured mess within 6 months of taking power though.
Starmer has basically done nothing but stand back and watch them fuck it up themselves. It's done him well in some places, but the rest of the votes wont come until he starts taking a stance on things. He can get away with that while not being in power but assuming he gets in, that will have to change. As you say, the Israel-Palestine stuff could well trip him up.
If it is just Tory-lite, there will only need to be one popular candidate in blue in 5 years time to oust him again.
I'm a real meat and potatoes, straight up and down, cards in the wallet, beef Wellington, don't trust the Argies, dick in the vagina, Cheddar cheese and chicken tikka masala man.
I feel Lofty has a non zero amount of time on this planet with a flare up his arse.
I agree in principle, however that's for unexpected scenarios. This was not unexpected.
No wallet on me and just my debit card in the pocket.
Why not NFC? This sounds like the worst of both worlds.
No idea, just never got "into" it.
Maybe it's a case of being old and SHUNNING technology. Was wary it wouldn't work unless I have my card on me for example and/or it wouldn't work and I've got no means of paying should I not have my card.
Mad to think Killer Starmer fooled us/me into thinking he was a human.
Wallet with everything in it, multiple cards, health card, driver's licence, id cards, you name it.
Good to know he's got the softball questions nailed down.
"I've lived in other countries"
Where was it I read that Starmer is actually a massive and genuine football fan, it's just that such a spastic melt that he can't even speak about that without sounding like David Cameron?
Debit card still works via chip and pin if contactless isn't working. Debit card allows you to get cash from an ATM if you need it. Debit card doesn't need to be charged.
Fuck relying on just a phone.
Yeah, I've read that too. There were photos of him playing a few years ago too. I do think he is a genuine fan, I don't know why he's such a fucking wally about it.
I'm definitely #teamwallet. The idea of just carrying your debit card around in your pocket is horrifying to me for some reason (no offence Mahow), similarly just relying on your phone.
I have a bit of a thing where I subconsciously judge other men by the type of wallet they are carrying when I see them get it out too. Sort of a less psychotic version of Patrick Bateman and the business cards.
It should be relatively plain and not outwardly flashy but still noticeable that some thought and at least minor expense went into buying it. Preferably brown. Black I will accept, I feel like that is a bit more old school though. If you own a velcro wallet as a grown man I feel that is reasonable grounds for a sectioning.
Stop catastrophising.
Surely watches are what you 'judge' other people on if you're that sort of twat, sorry, person.
Dunno if there's some sort of constituency bias on the go, but if not these results must be a bit disappointing for Sir Ed Davey and Co. Getting larruped by independents in terms of gains. I thought they were supposed to be the party of local government.
I love the idea of a wallet and usually have a good one (I have a black Ted Baker one with a dark grey stripe bifold) but I just never carry it with me.
The sub postmaster's revenge.
I'm a wallet guy, too. Although I don't fill them with receipts like my dad does.
Is it not just that their brains are fried and anything off-topic sends them through a loop?
Does a card holder qualify as a wallet?
I carry my card in my pocket and never take my phone out.
Sooner the better we can have our passport, drivers licence, etc on the phone too.
Exactly.
Carrying your debit card in your pocket is a bit odd but passable. Carrying your driving licence and debit card in your pocket every time you go out is a monstrosity
I.D being able to go digital and be stored on your phone would be great.
Until Grandad gets his identity stolen because he clicked on the dodgy deepfake porn link.
Panesar has decided he does not want to be involved with George Galloway's mob.
This could swing the election.
Labour choosing to take in another shitty Tory instead of win their seat is so pathetic.
Who's next? Mark Francois?
Both of them are stepping down so the new Labour candidate will have to win the seat. It's more a stunt to embarrass the Tories, and done 2 mins before PMQs as is the time-honoured tradition.

Lol at this fucking PR own goal.
I like the idea of defections as some sort of political Trojan horse. As has probably been pointed out and I was lamenting elsewhere the other day, the quality of person in political life these days is just so poor. Defections from either major party to the other are categorically unacceptable. Become an independent if you want, or a green or a lib dem, but crossing the floor in the way that has become barely bat an eyelid de riguer is just wrong. This is something that ought to be acknowledged by the party being defected to. Tell them to sling their hook
Election in July apparently.
Hold me. My mortgage renewal could work out ok after all.
It would be thoroughly unpatriotic not to call an election now, given that the government isn't functioning on pretty much any level.
Be lol if Rishi is just resigning.
Now talk of letters of no confidence.

Just give up guys, you had a good run, even if you pretty much fucked it from the get go.
What the country needs is a three-month Tory leadership contest, to choose who gets to lead them into an election in which they lose 300 seats and borderline cease to exist.
Paula Vennells barely able to believe her good fortune.
