  1. It’s also one of those certifications that the UK said it was going to get rid of after Brexit. Vast sums of money were wasted on a British alternative before the UK quietly accepted it would be a follower of EU regulations on the matter.
  2. To correct your baseless claims, I absolutely have, on many occasions over many years and in many different parts of the world. I’ve also applied my employer’s positive discrimination policies wrt hiring veterans, almost always not the highest qualified candidate and frequently with little or no directly applicable experience, but often working out as very good hires. I’ve also seen a number of cases in which very highly qualified candidates turned out to be hopeless at the job. I have a feeling you yourself have little if any experience of hiring professional staff.
  3. The French have got to the bit of disappearing people without any recourse to due process for lawfully expressing their. You’ll need to look a bit closer to home for that.
  4. Can’t be doing businesses with nations that uphold the rule of law.
  5. Another rightwing politician who’s all law and order until she’s on the receiving end of some of it as a result of her own criminality. It’s a thing.
  6. You clearly don’t understand diversity in populations. Moreover you thought you’d announce your ignorance on the matter to the internet.
  7. I notice you truncated my post to quote me out of context. Perhaps you aren’t able to deal with the argument I made. It seems so.
  8. There’s no such thing as ‘the best people for the job’. There’s always a range of skills, qualifications and experiences that suit jobs and different candidates have a different balance of these.
  9. Oh look, you’re attacking a woman for her looks again,
  10. I have a few ideas: Tax capital gains on the same scale as wages. Reintroduce the lifetime allowance on pension pots, at around £150K. Limit tax relief on pension contributions to the basic tax rate and limit annual contributions to £30,000. Repeal family trust laws. Set criminal penalties on tax evasion consistent with those for benefit fraud and fund monitoring/policing of tax evasion at the same rate as benefit fraud.
  11. Sorry Jonny, when you introduced your off topic ‘grooming gangs’ I thought you were referring to the recent news of the failings within the CofE.
  12. They’ve gone after tax avoidance by millionaires buying farm land and means tested winter fuels payments. They have gone after the disabled.
  13. This isn’t about the CofE failure to address perverts in its ranks.
  14. Corbyn is right, the Government need address the budget shortfall by taxing wealth and removing tax loopholes that benefit the rich. Failure to do so will only result in increasing the already rampant inequality and increasing poverty.
  15. So working class white kids aren’t benefiting from the increase in spending on state schools. Or perhaps they won’t benefit from their parents receiving the increase in the minimum wage or any provisions within the Employment Rights Bill. All policies that will improve the lives and opportunities of working class kids, unless of course, as you would have us believe, they happen to be white. Methinks you are once again letting your need for self stoked grievance get the better of you.
  16. There you go project your lack of thought on a master on to me. I would agree the Saudis aren’t stupid and I very much doubt they need the growth in what for them is a small investment. They do however have a history of suppressing free speech.
  17. Is this those ‘Devastating Consequences’ I wonder?!
  18. Disney employing a diversity of staff that mirrors the diversity of the general population.
  19. Do you think the Saudi Arabian co-investors who provided much of the money to help Musk buy Twitter are also interested in ‘Free Speech’?
  20. Oh look, another newly minted forum member posting offensive memes in the supposedly fact based news sub forum. On this occasion making use of the graves of dead servicemen.
  21. Oh another federal cash handout to the nation’s biggest ‘welfare junkie’.
  22. Paying vastly over the market value is not normal.
  23. Musk sells a business he controls at a price above its market value to another business he controls. He’s robbing the gas meter.
