Ah, bugger. Got the two muddled

Louis Mosely, the UK boss, is Oswald Mosely’s grandson. Y’know, the famous British fascist who wrote the Rivers Of Blood speech. One wonders how far the apple has fallen from that particular tree

Er… what? Their punishment for defrauding investors was “you can’t be a company director anymore… for a while”? No fines, CSO, or prison time?

Damn. Back to the drawing board.

Anyone know how they got found out? Did someone snitch, was one of them a Spycop, were their communications infiltrated?

Not yet, anyway. But once they’re in power, they’ll be given a lesson on how the big boys want the world to work.

Maybe its my age showing, but I’ve only ever bought one article of clothing online. If I can’t try it on before purchase I just wouldn’t bother.

The one exception was a jacket that only sold in the states, a personal recommendation.

Summary: Police now have to declare if they are or have ever been freemasons to the police. That’s it. 400 have done so.

They’ll almost certainly still try and get their masonic chums off with a lighter sentence.

I advocated for banning them because they’re polluting, unhealthy, and 500000 years of human history shows we don’t need them. That you insist we DO need them is probably false.

I’ll take your personal argument for why YOU use them - they’re easy and convenient - but it doesn’t justify their continued existence, any more than than the truth that “safely disposing of dangerous chemicals is expensive and inconvenient” justifies dumping them into lakes and rivers

Ok, all you needed to say was “i hate cooking”

Sure, but you could instead make a giant pan of e.g. spag bol one evening, put in individual tupperware tubs and freeze them. Then bring into work as an when. Saves umpteen trips to the shops.

I don’t mean to deride them in every circumstance - I probably buy them 3 or 4 times a year when I haven’t been able to shop/cook for some reason. But if they weren’t available, that would probably be better for consumers and the environment. A tin of soup is much easier to recycle

Yeah I thought whips were pretty damn illegal in the UK (not counting horse whips and soft leather bondage ones)

Ready meals are unhealthy, not hugely tasty, and more expensive than making it yourself.

Ah, good old software devs: always one feature missing. It’s why I still use MS Paint AND GIMP, Notepad AND Word, Firefox AND chromium etc

Same - had never heard of Eich before now. Will uninstall Brave tomorrow

it only makes citizens vulnerable, and who cares about those peasants?

Considering TOR was originally a CIA project, I wouldn’t be completely surprised if Signal was funded by a secret agency too.

FINALLY it gets reported in the MSM!

I do hope that THIS we’ll at least hire an American-owned private company to do the reactive action in an incompetent and massively overpriced way?

I think I read somewhere recently that something like £200mn spent on ADHD support would save £2bn in crime and benefits expenses.

I’m pulling those figures out of my arse btw. But it was something like that

Same day appointments aren’t the issue. I’d settle for an appointment in 3 days time as long as I could make an appointment when I’m not commuting on public transport
