For smashing things
- Comment on Water firms ask for bill rises of between 24% and 91% 6 months ago:
So essentially, what happened is billions (probably 100’s at this point) of public money have been handed to private individuals and everyone is left in the shit, literally.

How anyone can trust these animals absolutely bewilders me.

This is just project fear, why would the Tories want to asset strip and destroy the country they live in, just for temporary gain.
- Comment on ONS staff refuse to work two days a week in office 7 months ago:
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.

Office for national statistics, people who collate and curate data for analysis by other administrative groups. Do you mean they need to buy boots meal deals because that will help them open up excel?
- Comment on geoengineering 7 months ago:
Indeed, trickle down environmental improvements will come guided by the invisible hand of the market.
And you’re completely right, food supply should be protected. Maybe programmes to plant wild vegetation such as well suited local produce everywhere instead of bare concrete and wasteland could help, not only food supply but also the environment.
But then that would effect farming profitability, so that of course is too idealistic and not viable… I wish I was as clever as you.

- Comment on Brexit’s Lasting Damage Is Looking Inescapable 8 months ago:
How is this classism? Your original comment also changed ordinary people to working class, which I consider myself to be both part of.
You are suggesting that Brexit was some fight against some elite. The EU is a neo liberal mess, but the Tories who pushed this through by stoking bigotry are full on fascist and fully just taking advantage of useful idiots like yourself. Disaster capitalism is not a new concept
Victorian pencil made a fortune out of this shit show.
And of course David Cameron is laughing all the way as he whistles his way out of power by giving a big fuck you to the EU tax laws

Totally, do you ever get frustrated when people keep telling you that you’re not that bright, well fuckem, they’re all woke work shy immigrants I bet!

Sovereignty for the Great British little bitches

The good old days, where the peasants were riddled with scurvy and rickets.
- Comment on Biden ditches trade deal talks with Britain 11 months ago:
I think you might be on to something. It could possibly allow for the ability to pass regulations on predatory practices by big tech.
Awww who am I kidding, that’s a fantasy land, maybe if the UK allows companies to pump more sewage into the waterways America will want to trade then.
