Just trying to make sense of stuff I work in publishing. It sucks.

Ed Davey bungee jumping. His arms are spread out wide and his mouth is open.

Take back control. We don't want to be ruled by foreign, unelected, beauracrats.

Keep Elon Musk out of British politics.

Imagine my shock. Was he on a flight to Florida? Or holding surgeries in Clacton (joking, of course)?

Starmer: "Her recently acquired view that it's a scandal".

Class.

Badenoch skewered by Starmer on her silence about child protection/grooming when her party was in government.

And for the 8 years she's personally been an MP.

Starmer was on fire today, but I have to admit this was brilliant from Davey #PMQs

one of the most thorough skewerings I’ve ever seen during PMQs

8 years in parliament and didn't do a single thing. Can Badenoch get any more pathetic?

"For all the easy, cheap nonsense being peddled - changes 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 made."

Andrew Norfolk confirms Keir Starmer "completely changed the rules" as DPP to help prosecute grooming gangs - directly countering Musk's claim of a coverup.

Badenoch and Jenerick are absolutely shameless. She claimed multiple times at PMQs that she is raising these issues 'for the victims'. She isn't. She's jumping on a political bandwagon for her own gain.
Why didn't the Tories hold another national inquiry back in 2022 or 2023?

"Jess Phillips has done a thousand times more than they've even dreamt about when it comes to protecting victims of sexual abuse."

Keir Starmer hits out at Elon Musk and the far-right for "spreading misinformation" on grooming gangs.

Throwback to when Boris Johnson said money was being "spaffed up the wall" in investigating historic child abuse.

Make no mistake. Every politician, pundit & online grifter amplifying Musk's dangerous lies will be aware of this intervention by now. Make no mistake, they are choosing to mislead the public & politicise the suffering of victims in the shameful pursuit of political advantage, attention & clicks.

The legacy mainstream Conservative Party was dissolved by Johnson in 2019 and only the right wing Brexit loonies remain.

Thanks! I haven't tried byitts.com - I'll have a look. I've done a lot of Web apps with Node and Spring, and messed around with basic C terminal programmes, but setting up a project in C++ has been a bit of a nightmare πŸ˜†

Then, tens of thousands gets spent to initialize this idea and anyone who questions whether its actually useful isn't really listened to. If it's a success, OBVIOUSLY it's because upper management are doing a brilliant job, if not, it's just swept under the carpet.

Some one in upper management will have an idea one day. It's taken seriously because they are in upper management. Those above them don't really know much about the subject so they sort of just approve it.

When I was younger (pre-chiropractors), I always assumed large businesses were very efficient and strategic. Now that I actually work for one, I realize how badly they are run
