  1. So Powell showed what she asserted was evidence, omitting the signatures that might have been used to verify Powell’s claims. And she did do on MAGA lie network FOX which failed to ask for verification, simply broadcasting Powell’s assertions as facts. Perhaps Powell could have used this to avoid needing a plea deal. Or was she simply offering up fake evidence to back her lies regarding the fake ‘big steal’? Maybe Hack Smith will press her on the matter, if he hasn’t already done so.
  2. I can say with some certainty that you could survive at least 3 months. My first duty post Saudi Arabia was several hours drive from a supermarket, I nearly starved on my first 3 month tour. My second stint I found a supply of Spanish Extra Virgin Olive Oil which I used to consume with Saudi unleavened bread and black pepper. I eventually found a hole the wall bakery where you paid at one window and collected your piping hot bread straight out of the oven at a second window. I had picnic kit in my Land Cruiser, a folding lap table, a bowl for the oil and a plate for the hot bread. Absolutely delicious. Although you might need therapy to wean you off it after a few months.
  3. Shock horror, voters each have a range of concerns at the front of their mind as they vote. Double shock horror, those concerns are shared and can be collated to reveal key concern. Placeholder was right, refer ONS report.
  4. Which is why it’s always nice to have a report from the ONS and a couple of by-election results to refer to.
  5. Where would sophistry be without obsessive semantics?
  6. Correct, refer ONS report I linked above.
  7. Forgive me for interrupting your customary sophistry with a report from the UK Government’s Office of National Statistics. Oh and I took a look at last week’s by-elections. Rather pleasing they were too.
  8. It’s not, the Tories handed £Billions to their chums often to chums with zero experience providing the goods and services that were ostensibly being paid for and therefore no surprise at all with zero benefit to the nation.
  9. Let’s take a look at what the ONS has to say on the matter: https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/wellbeing/bulletins/publicopinionsandsocialtrendsgreatbritain/11to22january2023
  10. Putting aside that’s not what you were saying. No the Guardian articles will not translate into a Labour win, voters turning out to vote Labour and anything but Tory will.
  11. Stick around, you’ll get the follow up after the election.
  12. Your response to a thread referring to Tory and Sunak sleaze is to go off on one of your ‘short-cut key’ anti labour deflection rants. Oh did you miss the results of last week’s by-elections or is it that reality just can’t get through?
  13. Perhaps we are discussing this because it’s the subject of the thread.
  14. All well and good, until they also hand over documentation and electronic communications relating to the crimes. If we’ve learned one thing about the Trump administration it’s the habit his staff and advisers had of keeping records and recording conversations.
  15. Perhaps Israel needs to have a stock of shells ready in case ANOther nation decides now is a time to attack Israel. Regardless, I wouldn’t bet against the US armaments manufacturers being able to increase production to meet demand.
  16. Vote Republican get chaos.
  17. Sunak’s handing exploration licenses to BP while BP hand £ multi million contracts to businesses owned by his wife’s father needs to be looked at too.
  18. Getting paid a lot of money doesn’t give some magical ability to circumvent the law. Perhaps people have no idea what an organization is like to work for until they’ve actually worked there.
  19. There are very many reasons why people might sign an NDA that is not legally enforceable. Why a lawyer should draft and an employer should require employees to sign such an NDA is also a question deserving of an answer. But you miss a point, NDA’s are contracts and the final arbiter of a contract is a court of law. The court gets to consider all the questions and the wording of the contract as it relates to the law. ——— Just like marriage is a contract that people freely enter into but frequently want out of. The courts decide in accordance with the law.
  20. Extreme rightwing James O’Keefe brought to you by another extreme rightwinger Tim Pool. Thank’s for letting us know where you get your extreme rightwing feed from, well at least some of it.
  21. All in good time! Evidence first, then accusations. It’s for Comer and the assorted Republican nuts to provide evidence of Biden having committed crimes, it is not for Biden to prove his innocence. Or have you too lost all track of reality?!
  22. This is of interest to people who are in receipt of a UK State Pension but no other taxable income. Particularly to those who are in receipt of SERPs enhancements. Essentially, you may now be due to pay tax on your income the bill for which will accumulate since there are no direct means to tax incomes that are solely State Pension. The root cause is the freeze to the tax threshold, creating a stealth tax on low incomes that have risen with inflation. https://www.theguardian.com/money/2023/oct/21/uk-pensions-warning-dont-get-caught-by-an-out-of-the-blue-tax-bill
  23. Now that would be a laugh.
