On second thoughts, maybe the government should threaten to flood the Lords with people who will vote for it, and then vote to reform the chamber. Appoint as many christmas-positive turkeys as required.

Then force it through using the Parliament Act. Not quick, but effective.

Ideally this would wake up the government to the need for rapid constitutional reform but it seems unlikely.

There are also multiple lawyers involved, so of course that makes everything much worse. Especially when they don't bother to fucking check obvious things and cause yet more delays. More pricks.

And before some wanker pops in, I understand bayesian statistics perfectly well.

Diagnostics now seem to be something that only happen in other countries. Somehow, the medical consensus seems to be that actually understanding what's wrong is no longer desirable. This is not acceptable.

Look: there's absolutely a political argument for high tax rates on high earners. You can agree with it or disagree with it. Fine.

There's no argument for high tax rates on £60-80k and £100-125k and lower rates on £125k+

None.

A complete overhaul of Britain's absurdly toothless and fragmented anti-money laundering regulatory system is now even more urgent than it was.

If regulators didn't think this case broke the rules, then either the rules or the regulators -- or, more likely, both -- are complete bollocks.

Never had such a bunch of low intelligence, selfish, self centred fuckwits run the UK since 2016. None of them from the actual MP’s to civil servants have a fucking clue. There only in it to defraud the state and enrich themselves. Shameful.

Maybe it's time to stop putting people who haven't studied any maths or science since the age of 16 into management positions.
