The BBC states: Just what does he intend to get out of it? If someone approached flecc and offered him a job as a trade adviser to some foreign country, for no money, what would his response be? In some ways, the lack of remuneration is especially worrying. I quote him: Does anyone here...

Yet another no-surprise bad move:

As for trade deals:

Yet we keep failing to impose conditions which would get things finished. I'd love to see each new gen of mobile phone technology have the condition that at least one of the previous technologies provided genuine 100% coverage before they could start another. For example, 3G 100% before 5G...

Of course it will. 5G all the way. :) Until the Huawei kit it runs on is ripped out...

Build the new homes. Then you are set up to need new Thames barrier which will be unbelievably expensive. With contracts going to self-same lot as built the houses within flood risk areas.

I see HS2 building has "officially" started today. Funny how there always seems to be money for projects to help the public have better lives which depend on massive contracts made with "our friends and supporters".

Do you think that we in the UK are better prepared? I'll admit that even having an NHS is probably a major advantage. And we don't have the same physical scale. But it is still a mighty challenge. And I can see issues like insufficient of the appropriate kit cropping up. Someone might have...

Why only pilots? What about the rest of the aircrew? I know - just an unthinking choice of words. Time and again, though, wireless operators, gunners, bomb aimers, camera operators, etc. are consigned to the dustbin by being ignored. On both sides.

It just keeps on cumming: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2020/sep/02/cummings-recruit-sacked-after-suggesting-police-use-live-rounds-on-blm-protesters He might believe it. He might want it. But that he was stupid enough to tweet it speaks volumes about his social/intellectual capacity.

Sunak is reported to have said: My answer is, even if we were to accept that claim, their incompetence in every other area distinguishes them from Labour. Any many other negative factors.

wwwwwwwww-turn. Government abandons plan to relax Covid restrictions in Bolton and Trafford in fresh U-turn

Is this the meaning of a frictionless trade deal? Will this be one our prime imports in future? https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/sep/02/sewage-sludge-containing-human-waste-uk If you ask me, it's full of ...

Some of the interviewees on holiday and now scrambling to get back - saying things like: Must get back, can't afford to be off school/off work/ isolated. Just what was in their minds when they booked up to go on holiday in current circumstances? It was always obvious that some form of...

We were so poor we had to buy (or beg?) a knuckle and cook for hours. Let it get cold and form a layer of fat in the (literally) freezing kitchen. Then make candles from the fat and add a lentil to make soup from the liquid. [Only a bit of exaggeration. :) ]

After the much-commented Seaborne Freight so beloved of Grayling?

Yes, I agree luck is needed. But at least some virus people (them wot know about these things) have suggested that the bits that are changing are not known to be the bits targetted by some/most/all the vaccines being developed. Therefore, they suggest a good chance of the vaccines being...

What percentage is currently estimated to be likely to have a herd immunity effect for Covid-19?

I see the USA has passed six million cases. Don't worry, there are many more yet to get it.

The Guardian has this article: My response (it is not open to comments so this is theoretical) would keep it really simple: Should I resign before or after HoC returns?
