    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Anyway maybe he should spend more time worrying about what is happening at home rather than NATO https://edition.cnn.com/2025/02/14/economy/us-retail-spending-january/index.html

    I mean that's literally the point of NATO, that countries can't defend themselves properly so there is a collective agreement. Don't remember much wailing about percentage of GDP when article 5 was invoked post 9/11. When the people celebrating are the likes of Putin and Netanyahu that...

    For a start they aren't 'supposed to spend at least 2% of GDP on defence', it's a target. This target only started in 2014 with the knowledge that it would take some member countries many years to reach the target. In fact when it first came in only 3 countries met the target but it's been...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Just had a quick google and as far as I can tell if that is your concern all you need is a bit of estate planning and you're all good. In fact it seems that you can hand the lot over to your kids 7 years or more before your death and no further questions will be asked. On the other hand if...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Its crazy to me. Pretty much all the available evidence suggests that working from home leads to increased productivity so purely from a business perspective you'd say it was a good thing before you even consider work / life balance for employees, lower number of sick days, the reduction in...

    Germany *again*

    He arrived in Germany in 2016 and although his application for asylum was turned down he was allowed to stay in Germany and had a valid residence and work permit. The Munich prosecutor confirmed to reporters that Farhad N had been living in Germany legally...

    May all be slightly irrelevant seeing as the talks with Russia only seem to exist in Trumps head.

    Not sure 'nobody answers when I call them' is saying quite what he thinks it is.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Laughable, if for no other reason than his dislike for WFH is apparently based on him not being able to phone people are Fridays. Does anyone really believe the boss of J P Morgan spends his days phoning low level staff. If the other senior level employees, most of whom have had hybrid working...

    100% this. They're following a similar path to when he was at Wasps where property development seems to be far more important than whats happening on the field.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Saw an interview with Kinnock a while back. His comment was that in his day you could disagree with another MP but you could have a civil conversation with them and they were capable of arguing their position and you came away with the impression that no matter how much you disagreed you felt...

    A quick google suggests that what is being claimed may well be slightly misleading to say the least. What is pictured is an off site storage archive, seems no actual work there. There is also a logic to requiring all that paperwork. Many of the federal employees retiring now and in recent...
