Isn't that the exact origin of "bogarting"?

there will be serious sand in the gears of global commerce for the foreseeable future.
Or will there? Certainly, serious issues for US trade, but the rest of us can trade with each other just fine. We're already seeing that start to happen.
I cannot express adequately how different blades are from each other. Some are smoother than others, some are sharper and some improve after a few uses. Some last longer.
I have fairly fine whiskers, so I don't need a crazy sharp blade like Feather. My skin is also a bit sensitive, so a smooth blade is best.
For me Big Ben, blades made by Lord in Egypt are really good. One of the versions of Shark, also made by Lord are pretty good too.
I find Wilkenson Sword blades to be horribly scratchy, and the name for some of the Gillette blades. Voskhod aren't bad, except they are Russian.
You don't realize how different they are until you try.
Religion. Ruins. Everything. Every. Time.
Blades vary greatly between brands. Get a sampler pack from eBay to find ones you like. Then buy them in bulk. 100 blades will generally cost from $8-$14, depending on the brand. Some, like Feather, are more expensive.
Virtually anything by Bernard Cornwell.
The key word is "immediately". It is within his power to delay the byelection for months.
We'll, the article was about the jobs maintaining the robots, not humans building stuff in factories.
I'm not so sure about the "jaws of Victory" bit. I think that Canadians were just fed up with Trudeau, couldn't bring themselves to vote NDP and ended up polling Conservative. So it wasn't really support for PP, but unsupport for Trudeau.
Take Trudeau out of the equation and the Liberals came flooding back to the party.
I'm not sure that I can remember that being done for any leader at the federal level in the past 50 years or so. We'll have to wait and see.
He still gets to be party leader, but he cannot sit in Parliament. There are two remedies for this. First, the party can choose a new leader from their elected MPs. Second, they can have an MP in a "safe" riding step down and then ask the government for a special by-election in that riding.
Fun fact....
There's this block in Rome just called "Sacred Area" south-east of Piazza Ravenna. It's an excavated area with three or four temples in it. There a plaque that says that the ancient Roman Senate chambers were just west of this area, and that's where Caesar was going/coming when he was killed.
Anyways, there's a hotel right on that spot. I've stayed there a couple of times without knowing that I was sleeping right on top of where Julius Caesar was killed.
Now, how cool is that???
