Google+ How to Invite or be Invited (Working)

Google+ is fantastic but unfortunately Google have halted invites to Google+ citing capacity reasons. Luckily you can still join the service, it’s just rather complex. You can join even if you don’t have a Gmail account.

The Old Method

The original workaround involved somebody with a Google+ account simply sharing something with your… Continue reading

A response to Labour’s new poster campaign

Labour’s new poster campaign, submitted by a Labour activist, features a picture of David Cameron and the text “Don’t let him take Britain back to the 1980s”.

Labour are once again in the pocket of their union paymasters. Strikes are happening, more are planned…

Conservative General Election Posters

Following this article on Conservative Home, I decided to have a crack at making a billboard poster.

Kingston Communications (Karoo) Monopoly Abuse

We all knew that Kingston Communications offer an expensive and dire broadband and telephone service. Karoo have recently had to pull the plug on disconnecting customers without any warning or evidence of copyright infringement. They can afford to be like this because they’re the sole provider of telephone and broadband services in Hull, and they’ve… Continue reading

Alcohol Policy Strikes Again

I posted previously about Tesco’s ridiculous alcohol policy enforcement. I argued that a 40 year old man with his daughter would not get the same treatment as us students experience, with the demanding of ID from everyone not just the purchaser. It appears Asda have got that one step further and ID’ed a 15… Continue reading

Tesco Alcohol Freedom, or Lack Of

I’ve been meaning to write about this for a while. Generally if a big shop is required a few of us go together in a vehicle. Contrary to what student life might have you believe, alcohol isn’t purchased on every occasion. We just buy lots when there’s a special offer on! Sometimes only half or… Continue reading

Blogging light

I’ve not blogged much lately. Some say it’s because I’ve not had anything exciting to talk about, others just think I’ve been lazy. I’ve recently purchased an iPhone, along with Wordpress and Twitter applications which should result in a lot more updates from me! If you’re not already following me on Twitter, you should!… Continue reading

The NUS needs to Re-engage with its Members

The National Union of Students (NUS) appears as a separate institution to a regular student. Students don’t feel their membership, their union of people, they see a discount card – it goes no further.  Is it any wonder when regular students who rarely care about the majority of issues discussed, have their voice withdrawn from… Continue reading
