Huh?? That makes no sense at all: “workspace” isn’t a sector and education is mostly public sector and… and…

Forms design and testing is one of the many skills that got trashed in the global rollout of Microsoft Word, and goodness does it show.

Me too! I assume people only ask it things in order to confirm its shittiness, but really we don’t need to see any more proof.

We all knew.

Which means they knew. And they let the bodies pile high. They should be in jail: Johnson, Hancock, Whitty, Harries.

They stood up there and lied to us, knowingly, every night. And 200,000 died.

Just to be clear, it’s not that *trans* people could be banned, but that anyone who others suspect are trans. Whether they are trans or not is another matter.

A donkey being held by a vet nurse, in a stable, with a small table holding an open laptop placed nearby. The donkey and the nurse appear to be looking at the laptop screen with some interest.

Harley now working from home. (OK, actually he’s being scanned and is fascinated by the sight of his innards).

The only part they planned was the racism

They didn't think to actually deal with the issues

Unbelievable that junior civil servants are still making this mistake. It shows how poor the corporate memory is after years of cuts, deskilling and managers not giving a toss. It’s the equivalent of a 1960s civil servants not knowing how to use a treasury tag.

Nick Timothy, Tory MP most responsible for the Windrush scandal, gives Mahmood his support

OK so I’m here to pitch “The Repair Shop on ICE”, in which Home Office staff lurk outside the barn and seize valuables from anyone whose status doesn’t appear to be sufficiently settled, thereby helping with the huge cost of endlessly harassing refugees.

It really isn't clear how progressive and blue "Labour" can continue to co-exist politically.

These aren't disagreements over tactics and strategy. They have fundamentally different answers to core questions of political economy, society, and citizenship.

The overlap is very slim.

Or, possibly, both?

Labour policy is being celebrated by Tommy Robinson.

That's it.

That's all you ever need to say to explain who Labour are.

They aren’t called Ice Ages for nothing.

This whole Streeting vs Starmer story is such a Westminster bubble inanity from a bored media class that has gotten addicted to toppling governments and abdicated any responsibility for what they're actually meant to be doing in a healthy society

Labour continues to disappoint. They had a mandate to clear out the rot of the Tories, not carry out a watered down version of their mistaken policies.

You guys down south just go waayyy over the top about Halloween.

“What could possibly go wrong?”

So useful to have several estates off to which one can shuffle one’s inconvenient relatives. We should all have the wherewithal to do this.

Don’t understand the versions of this post that leave out Assault… Sure it’s exploitative and arguably quite racist, but it’s just a brilliant movie.

I remember being told that you shouldn’t run Ethernet between buildings because of earth differentials. I never knew what this meant (apart from Bad Things), but I’ve believed it ever since. Presumably your electrician doesn’t?

A Cuillin off period, then?

So the BBC needs two celebs with experience of handling sex scandals now Claud and Tess have stepped down. And Andy and Fergie are looking for jobs. Need I say more?

“That’s how immigration works”, apparently. Didn’t you know? I must confess I didn’t.

That’s because all the people who were there are dead, Jaf.

PADdington 4192… we left that house when I was 8, quite a very large number of years ago.
