Well in the same breath, Trump is trying really hard not to be white, soooo…

Bonus if he only realises after he’s written his tirade and hits send.
Even better, the only letter that posts for Trump is “h”
…Is this a bad time to ask what was in the top secret boxes trump had at Mar A Lago?
Over 1 million people are on zero hour contracts (1 in 33 UK working age people), which does not mandate employers to auto-enroll. Another 4 million are self-employed, and the majority of them are not saving towards retirement.
That means a potential of 3 million of working age zero and self-employed have nothing saved, a further 2 million from that same pool will likely have less than recommended amount saved.
In the company employed pool, 9% have opted out of the enrollment, so that’s 2.5 million opted out.
In total, about 20% of working age people are not actively saving into pensions (although may save elsewhere). A potential bombshell if that many people become officially destitute in a relatively short space of time.
While the UK has made some steps to try and rectify things (as chancellor, Gordon Brown funded the 2-year commission that recommended auto-enrollment and it has worked well), 14 years of Conservative rule have let some very nasty employment practices seep in and poison over a decade of pension funding opportunity. Companies are underpaying employees, Government is overtaxing employees. Only companies coming out on top and seeing record profits while the country wastes away.
Fingers crossed, intervening on this is high on Kier’s priorities because our current unfettered capitalist model is a complete mess.
His transition into the Great Goblin is proceeding as expected.
Civ V vibes, love it
Martin Lewis for a finance advisory appointment next please.
By the sound of it, you already know the answer to that.
Twat is too nice a word for this malodorous leaky sack of fox shit.
What do Mark Knopfler and transphobic people have in common? They are both Dire Straits.
I suppose that is a fair comment and a possible reason, along with those who boycotted the event will have diminished all votes going to other acts.
I still think there is a likelihood that Israel tried to play the game on public votes, because it would be a minimal spend for a big PR boost for them. Having a big Israeli company sponsor bought them a lot of the judge votes, then this move would have topped it up. It was just my initial thought when the 300+ points came up. The majority of the crowd did not take that well, along with all of the other stories about booing at the semis, the canned applause on the TV coverage to cover it up, the vote swing just seemed like too big a massive juxtaposition to global sentiment for it to carry weight.
I’m waiting on the news story uncovering the voting farms all over Europe funded by the Israeli government, wanting to parallel the Ukraine 2022 result to claim vindication and that they have the public’s backing for their ongoing genocide of the Palestinians. Disgusting.
Pauper troll
