@druid This isn’t a brag - like much of my anger it is grief that #BrexitBritain is being so grievously shortchanged by a corrupt government who could/should invest for a safer, more prosperous future but have freely chosen to betray their country with greed and have stolen the futures of the younger generation.

Sunak’s ‘stop the boats’ pledge has sunk to new depths – and it’s unworkable

An interesting and accurate analogy by Aditya Chakrabortty in The Guardian. Briton isn’t all smiles and wealth. It’s become a cesspool of corruption, destitution, greed, and sycophantism. Anywhere else in the world, the people would be in open revolt, but that’s just not British! Time to stare that portrait in the face.

Australia is laughing at the new trade deal with the UK.

Great Britain now begging the former colonies for £s.

Don't worry, Sir Keir Starmer will fix it... or not.

🇬🇧 😩 'Train passengers face losing access to wifi after the government told rail companies to stop providing the service unless they can demonstrate its business case. :blobnom:

The move is being pushed by the Department for Transport (DfT) in order to cut costs as it looks to “reform all aspects of the railway”.' 🧐

'A legal letter of intent was signed by the DHSC on 4 September 2020, which guaranteed a multimillion-pound payment to Ecolog even if a full contract was not issued.

The following year the DHSC decided it did not want to proceed and gave Ecolog £38m in settlement for “mobilisation costs”, including a “profit component”. The DHSC confirmed that no services were provided by the company.'

'Like the Chichester BID, there are many spaces in the UK that appear to be public space but are actually privately owned or managed – in London alone these include the 13 acres of the South Bank and Granary Square in King’s Cross. In these areas, private security guards enforce rules imposed by landlords, rather than those set by the local authority. This means they have little accountability'

"The nakedly partisan attacks on Gary Lineker backfired. Such unabashed liberal dissent from a popular figure has been missing from political discourse. This is, in part, because the Labour party had not summoned the moral courage to say the right thing. Mr Lineker ought to be congratulated for shaming the opposition into action."
