    It was Trump who rolled out vaccines in the US not Biden. Vaccines in the US are a continuation of a Trump policy.

    Cancel culture gone mad.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Are they just stupid or do they think everyone else is? I think it’s both. I think they’re stupid enough to think everyone else is stupid so the go on TV making outrageous claims because they don’t think anyone is clever enough to fact check.

    Correct me if I’m wrong but don’t train drivers have their own trade union? So not the RMT.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    From what I understand they want to enforce longer working hours. So that overtime might become mandatory, inconvenient and at lower rates, including a Sunday service.

    Electrical Issue

    I think I’m right in saying any NICEIC or ECA registered electrician is allowed to work on it and certify it. I don’t think you have to use Western power once in the building and Western Power almost certainly will charge you a premium for using them. Just google NIC electricians in your area...

    It’s more than just pay though. Talking to my postie it’s also about conditions. Namely their employer wants to abandon promises made to employees and Unions that allowed Royal Mail to be privatised in the first place.

    I think the point is they keep saying the country can’t afford it. Yet it can afford to wipe off billions of pounds in Covid fraud, Rishi Sunak literally decided to do that as chancellor, might have even been this year. I read last week that the government is also paying £7M a day for storage of...

    As someone said on twitter. At least being an MP keeps him away from children.

    It’s 4% for this year back dated to January 2022 and then another 4% from 01/01/2023. There’s no 9% pay increase. They’ve offered a 4% pay increase for the year they’ve just had and another 4% going forward next year. You don’t accumulate your annual pay rises, it’s 4%. Scottish rail workers...

    I’d think that he’d take it as confirmation that he’s doing a good job.

    It’s also a completely pointless exercise to try and appeal to them for the reasons James O’Brien raises here.

    Didn’t government and Downing Street staff collaborate the story before Cummings even mentioned it. Sure the Guardian and ITV News both broke the story, Cummings just agreed it was true and added he was in the room when it was said.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Yeah… but the EU is dealing with corruption. It really isn’t the line of attack someone thinks it is when you look at the behaviour of our own government. Lying to the queen to illegally prorogue parliament. Lying repeatedly over partygate. Writing off Covid fraud so their mates can get away...

    Or the Owen Patterson debacle where the Tories tried to retrospectively change the rules to bail him out. Or the breaking of the ministerial code by various Tory MP’s for things that not that many years before would have ended said MP’s career, only to be ignored and swept under the carpet.

    The Obligatory Christmas Thread 2022

    It’s about this time of year I separate from the wife and kids in the evenings and weekends. They’ve started their Xmas film marathons at evenings and weekends. They’ll literally watch anything on Prime, Netflix and Sky movies with anything in the title that is remotely linked to Xmas, including...
