Re: Why?

If they launch 5new ones then cancel one a year later, that's a 20% saving right there

Re: maybe do better before faster

>Most scammers now use Gmail

Cos everyone uses gmail.

That's like saying most scammers use Fujitsu optical fibre

Re: What are the downsides?

I can see the point in publishing salaries, then it's easy to see that everyone female or whose name you have to ask how to pronounce seems to be earning less than the white guys. But IIRC this only requires that current salaries/gender/race are reported, not published.

Here the govt jobs paying more than $100K have to have the person's salary published. Then somebody retires after 40years with 12months of unused medical leave that is paid out and the local paper makes a fuss about binman or school caretaker being paid $$$$$$

Re: Will this actually help ?

Unless everyone just takes the piss and quotes $0 to $MAX_INT

Sadly it appears that traditional exports of sarcasm are failing to find markets

Re: Council houses sporting Conservative posters

So if Truss wants to be Thatcher she just has to wait for Labour to build lots of council houses in London. Sell them off to the tenants for pennies, have them become fantastically rich on house price rises and give all the credit to her.

It's not the least credible plan in the last 12years

Re: Opinion polls are looking good.....

Although to be fair Ress-Mogg probably doesn't regard Dublin as a foreign country.

Re: Bye bye BoJo???

If every other ex-PM of a member country were killed in a bizarre group photo incident.

He has more chance of becoming US President than a Brit had of becoming Eu president.

(Shit - I had my hand on the magic monkey paw when I said that)

Re: Please don't take this the wrong way, but

As long as you kill 1/4 of them in safe seats you're fine.

Ideally you kill more of the other lot's pensioners than your own. That's easier if your own pensioners are richer and live in the warmer south

The real problem is that red-wall Tories might be at risk from too many dead poor pensioners in the North.

Perhaps a targeted program of tactical lagging ?

Re: Opinion polls are looking good.....

Keep your business registered in the country where your mates set the rules and taxes, put your money in the place where there might be some worthwhile business being done.

The same reason you register your leaking oil tanker in Liberia ?

Re: I want to be Prime Minister!

Truss's new plan, England threatens to leave UK unless Scotland pays more !

He called on the new prime minister to go further and also resign ?

Re: That's It I'm ....

Finland is also imaginary - and look at their PM !

All the engines are on fire and the pilots are currently battering each with axes - but we are 30,000ft away from having any idea whether this will be a good landing or bad

Re: she reminds me of another "Blonde Bombsite"

The headlines say she will "suceed" Boris.

I think we need a new terminology, perhaps "su-fail" ?

Re: Opinion polls are looking good.....

At least he "Got Brexit Done" - by exiting Britain with all his funds

> assuming of course that Labour don't manage to shoot themselves in the foot again.

It's a challenge, but who's to say Sir Keir isn't upto it ?

>Given the choice, there wasn't going to be a good outcome.

Was rather hoping for the more traditional "Gatorade Punchbown" ending to a cult

>the same selection process that produced Boris has produced Truss. Why would it do better this time ?

Given a choice between a woman and brown chappie, neither of whom went to Eton, I hoped that they would all give up.

Re: Trussed Up

Did we ever find out where the cheese was coming from ?

Cos here in abroad-land the cheese is expensive and bloody awful. I'd kill for even cathedral city.

Re: That's It I'm ....

Canada and Australia - you can get HP Sauce and Yorkshire Tea easily and the house prices will make you feel nostalgic for home.

New Zealand - is imaginary

USA - as long as you stick to Seattle (or possibly New England?) and never turn on the TV news it's not too bad.

Everywhere else you can't understand a thing they are saying - and they won't let you in anyway

Re: Trussed Up

You make it from Pork Markets, right?

But they did invent the terminal CAPS LOCK key

Re: Orange is the New Black?

But the empty folders show that there is nothing to investigate.

Like the broken cage that says "Veloceraptor", do see any Veloceraptors? No - so there is nothing to worry about !

Re: I thought Trump Declassified all these documents

Rabbis don't bless things and salt is always kosher.

This is more like Transubstantiation. Through the power vested in him by the ineffable electoral college. Trump was able to miraculously convert the documents into unclassified paper, while to the unbeliever they retain the same mundane physical appearance of highly sensitive national secrets.

It's one of those mysteries of faith (like the popularity of Justin Beiber) that mankind are not meant to understand.

>posting the addresses of three restaurants in Belfast, and calling for arrangements to be made for them to be bombed.

The IRA have an online booking service now ?

I thought traditionally they phoned the warnings to you, not you to them ?

Re: Small companies

You haven't taken advantage of the new trade links with the faroese and Pitcairn islands?

>then what will all affected businesses do?

Thank Brexit that they are free from pandering to Eu customers and embrace Global Britain

Unfortunately it's Alan Cummings in Goldeneye

Re: Summary: abuse personal data as you wish

Corporations are people too. And although Global Megacorp is registered in Narnia in its heart it feels like a British person
