In the news

It's just you.

As in, adverts for viruses? Don't buy, it's not worth it.

I'm getting adverts for Amazon lunches. They must know I'm greedy and hate tax.

FB link through to Gruniad gave pop ups yesterday, but going direct to same news page didn't. Odd.

The link in this post triggered pop ups just now

I'm getting guardian virus popups too

Nope. Me too.

What are we looking at.

I've gone there via a duck duck go search app and no pop ups

Doesn't anyone use a pop-up blocker?

On my phone.

Ah.

Have pop up blocked and ads too. Might /should get to popup block on the phone too.

We seem to be getting confused about what 'In the news' means.

My news is full of Samsung shit.

First EU results in: Corbyn's Islington lost by Labour to the Liberal Democrats.

Pathetic!

Same here, spammy pop-ups advertising samsung prizes apparently, Chrome on Android. Fingers crossed it'll go away. Good for me to waste less time on the internet anyway!

Doesn't anyone use an adblocker?

(Cough, blokada, cough)

adblocker plus
you really don't see any adverts at all

Ta.

Yeah I use this at work. Never sorted it on phone.

Final result: Tommy Robinson got just 2.2% of the vote in the north-west (just 38,900 votes). He's lost his deposit.

I know it’s not the main news but I’m thrilled that Tommy Robinson
basically paid five grand to tour the north west getting milkshakes
chucked at him.

Will they break the deadlock in new elections? I think that's of interest to the UK, too. While the issues are very different, political polarisation seems to be similar in nature.

Huge if true

Lovely stuff...

"Pollution is “part of the life in Madrid”, she said, adding that the city’s nightlife “goes hand in hand with traffic jams”
