Re: With two-faced "friends" like Dyson, Britain doesn't need enemies

"The money for the NHS? That 'could' go to the NHS?"

Yeah.. Guess Leavers aren't very good with language. Guess defrauding them is ok then?

You are basically saying: "all leaver idiots fell for it". I'm pretty sure you believed it too, at the time.

You do realise that "could" can also mean "will happen in the future, if you do this"?

"You could have this car, if you pay this much" doesn't mean you pay, and then MAYBE you get the car.

It's implied that it will happen under certain circumstances. Not that it's an empty promise that would never happen.

We left, so -> 350m PER WEEK extra should now go to the NHS. Is "should" too vague too? How about "must"?

I'm sure a court of law would be able to explain this and put the fraudsters in the slammer if this was a regular financial fraud.

"Wasnt much better being a Brexiter and pointing out the actual facts. Even now some will deny fact."

I don't recognise that. Perhaps you pointed out made up stuff? What facts are we denying even now?

Where's the £350m, by the way? You do realise you only "won" by lies like that, and 70m Turks being due to arrive.

"I guarantee that with a political head of state the costs will swamp the current royals cost"

How can you guarantee that? Because you want it to be true? It seems highly unlikely to be true.

"the French copied us"

Yes, but at least they got it right.

Re: With two-faced "friends" like Dyson, Britain doesn't need enemies

You really do come across as a master forelock tugger.

Re: With two-faced "friends" like Dyson, Britain doesn't need enemies

"A royal who's been trained from birth to do what's best for the country is a better choice than many."

Perhaps, but he/she doesn't have to own so much, does he/she? Nor be showered with money every year. It's embarrassing the way things are.

Re: With two-faced "friends" like Dyson, Britain doesn't need enemies

"the UK becoming a republic with a president at the top of the shitheap will be without cost to the taxpayer"

Please explain? What would be the cost? And how would it be worse than maintaining the Royal Waste of Spaces?

Your suggestion doesn't make any sense.

"Remain only presented LIES.."

Oh, well, I can tell you really have your finger on the pulse of how things are going in the UK...

Re: With two-faced "friends" like Dyson, Britain doesn't need enemies

"You are right. The EU was accepted as a self evident good by the remain campaign. 'To leave is lunacy' did not prove a convincing argument. How leavers laughed as we chased their bus and other specious lies. Now we live with the result. Sadly we have only our selves to blame."

But this just isn't true. Remainers were shouted down every time they tried to point out actual facts. And boy did we try.

"Thats nice, you enjoy being part of the BIG Love collective.."

Sure beats being part of the small and bitter hate collective consisting of chest beating morons.

Re: Tech is not the solution.

"Surely GPs just need to be like Doc Martin."

Yes, throwing up at the sight of a drop of blood! Fantastic series, by the way.

"And doubtless an MRI as soon as we get room temp superconductivity..."

I'd settle for actual room temperature inside the clinic.

Re: NHS Linux

"NHS Digital actually gets quite the good price on Microsoft software"

Yes, why not have all eggs in one paid-for basket, where the seller sets the price?

That certainly makes a lot of sense...

I don't think some generalised comments from Starmer can be taken as his actual and final plan.

This article is silly, and so are many comments.

What a bizarre rant. It's as if you don't know anything about the Tories at all. You do know who's in charge and just sits on their hands doing feck all useful?

Re: Maybe not Linux but Office maybe ditchable

"In my installation archive I have (counts....) 44 seperate clinical applications installation archives."

I would be very interested to learn what these applications do? How can there be a need for 44 separate ones?

Thanks for any insight!

Re: So now the UK is out of the EU...

Sure, let's forget about the "good old days" so we don't accidentally try to get back to those days. Let's just sink deeper instead.

Re: So now the UK is out of the EU...

Woke rules? Like what?

I don't get the downvotes?

Do people really believe that all currency has corresponding bank notes somewhere? Your money on the bank has a pile of money sitting somewhere waiting for you?

Of course not. It's just a number in a computer memory. Hence digital. I never said a thing about crypto.

" I am a man with very long hair and a beard. I love being called a boffin"

I guess that's why others may not enjoy being called that?

(And I used to look just like you, although I had to do some trimming now for my passport photo.)

"didn't seem to be in an OSH inspection ready state"

You sure?

"Hours a day wasted in make-up, just to fit a non-existent gender stereotype."

He did pretend not to be himself, however.

Re: Respect! Respect!

But do you like the respectful epithet "grease monkey"?

Re: Educate

It's no use. OK, if you are 65+ it may be respectful, etc, but not for younger people, and certainly not for people outside UK.
