More political correctness
Immigration staff have been told not to wear England badges during the World Cup because they might upset illegals in detention centres. Especially the ones who are scheduled for export.
Bottomless pit
Student loan interest rates are being kept high to fund benefits, the Treasury’s Chief Secretary has announced. She is always under constant pressure from the Work & Pensions bloke for more dosh for Labour’s benefits voters.
Not competent
The unpublished Defence Investment Plan recommended an increase of £28 billion.
A year later, the government was going for £18 billion over 4 years. That’s now down to £13 billion. Labour, eh? All them benefits voters.
No fast fix
Apple has agree to make a kill switch its default for pocket phone security. Other companies are dithering. Will this end the plague of phone thefts? Not when the bad guys work out how to unkill the kill.
Still waiting
When will this famous heat wave arrive? Or has it been and gone somewhere that matters to the Met Office?
I notice that the wind machine is still flapping the apple tree branches around and keeping everything cool where I am, and the Sun isn’t out relentlessly all day.
File under ‘B.I’ for Bloody Israelis
President Thump has Israel killing more Lebanese as an alibi for no peace deal with Iran on the Sunday just gone. That pesky Ne10yahoo!
Still, it deflects him from Cuba. For the moment.
