    The London stock exchange is no longer the most valued in Europe. Paris is more valuable now. The Tories claim to know about economics but have driven our country down into the ground. They boast about the high employment in the UK (aka all British people in employment) in the middle of a labour shortage and cost of living crisis, their solution is to exclude foreign workers who would enable the economy to function, plummet the value of the pound and pull us out of the EU. Absolute morons who would not have gotten anywhere without their privilege and private schooling.

    £8 million is a piffling amount when compared £37 billion (yes £37,000,000,000) that was supposedly spent on track and trace.

      @TalesOfWar 2 роки тому +32

      What makes the track and trace thing even more insane is that we HAD a system that WORKED! It was literally among the best in the world, that was set up during the SARS epidemic. The government canned it a year or so before COVID to save money, then had to quickly reinvent the wheel when it turns out that maybe it was a bad idea and such a thing is actually useful to have. And it didn't work, because they threw the money at the wrong people. But hey, their friends and donors got a nice chunk of our money out of it.

    8 million would pay for around 266 nurses wages for a year. Even if you only employes them for a year and they dealt with 8 patients a day each.. they'll be looking after around 553,000 patients a year.. so 8 million used in the right way is actually quite a lot of money.

    Out of the 100 new French personnel, half of them will be "administrators" (ask anyone who works in the public sector), leaving 50. Of those fifty a quarter will be on leave at any one time. leaving 38. 10% will be on sick leave, leaving 35. Of those remaining 2 out of seven will be on their 2 days a week off, leaving 25. One of the remaining will be on a training course leaving 24. They will be split up into three teams, covering three 8 hour shifts per day, meaning 8 officers on duty at any one time. Given that the English Channel is 350 miles long on the French side, full of inlets and coves, I don't think this initiative is going to have a huge impact.

      I'm not against the principle of some form of national ID, but the money, time and effort wasted on this with the requirements creep (by Tory & particularly Labour in the past) on unproven technology is astounding. Don't see its value for voting unless it's long established. Maybe the thing to address is what it gives for the (increasing) price. Could just buy in a system from, say, Germany or France, or anywhere which uses ID 'successfully' without British involvement.

The gaslighting over the damage Brexit and RACE Hate has done to England as a nation can not even be calculated. It has cost you a political union with Northern Ireland and Scotland. No point in blaming the Scottish Government or the SNP. We are way past that divide and rule as 'Scottish' Labour are now a Hard Brexit Brit/Nat vote-chasing party of offshore banking money laundering tax crime called England. PS Scottish Gov.
