Spot on. The British are indeed masters of being two faced bastards.

This is just project fear, why would the Tories want to asset strip and destroy the country they live in, just for temporary gain.

The arbitrary n days a week requirement is just a simple lazy way of ensuring people visit the buildings consistently so there is a valid reason to keep them paid for. It will also continue to be n+1 until things return to as they were or peoples investments are no longer going to benefit with more forced return to office.

Face to face meetings can be organised anywhere. Its just inefficient to be using a building and requiring people to travel for what does mostly amount to sitting on your own on teams calls anyway. The requirement to have people sitting in places where you occasionally bump into them just smacks of bad management.

In person meetings can be useful for improving social relations. Mandating n days a week on the off chance you might have a useful meeting is asinine.

And so castles made of sand... melts into the sea... eventually...

Yeah I think about that even with the tankie trolls on here, is it just some poor fuck enlisted in the russian war effort to shill for Putin's imperial dreams

Odd the BBC choose to clarify here

... Love scams. The latter are also known as "pig butchering" scams, named after the farming practice of fattening pigs before slaughtering them.

Some fat English gammon editor maybe got a bit uncomfortable by the name possibly...

Semitic is race. Judaism is a religion. Religion is a cultural phenomenon. Zionism is intrinsically linked to the religion and historically has been an incredibly fanatic cult very willing to do anything to reach their final goals. I think hatred of this is far removed from any kind of racism.

E: and the conflation of Zionism with Judaism is something I see consistently coming from zionists, so it being being deemed a trait of anti Semitism doesn't make sense to me for several reasons. I'm an atheist though so generally have no respect for fairytales that send people psychotic...

Unfortunately this is not a new idea. But it is usually framed in, the young will support the older generation, as if there isn't ample resources to do that as is...

Yep, this'll do nothing but end of in the pockets of a few very carefully selected funding applicants

Yeah this is just the first step in removing state support for disabled people. Everything these evil cunts have done from the beginning has been so fucking obvious.

The big society, where private individuals would contribute to things like food banks, while they gut state support. Reducing support for GP practices while incentivising fully private practices to be set up, handing contracts to big American healthcare/insurance companies.

How is this not obvious to people in the UK, or do they know and want the UK to turn into a hellhole?

E: seems the council is about half and half for conservative and labour members, but labour are now just Tories so probably not worth checking...

The whole Jimmy saville thing was insane, he had the keys to mental hospitals. The BBC chauffeured him about, very much like they picked up schoolgirls from school for Russell brand to be brought back to his flat.

Saville was great friends with the royals and thatchers government, you'd think the secret services would have known what he was up to... Thatchers home secretary Leon Britton was accused around the same time a lot of others were found out, but Theresa May's government shut that down.

Reading this back, I'm thinking I can't post this it's sounds nuts. Maybe that's how these fuckers get away with it...

Hadn't heard about Pesci, probably playing on his Italian gangster fame, what a twat.
