The UK has asked the EU to suspend an imminent ban on the sale of British sausages in Northern Ireland to give both sides "breathing space" to negotiate an agreement on the Brexit protocol and avert a trade war.

It's as if the sovereign UK government didn't know that the deal they signed and cheered meant that NI remained in the EU's Custom Union.

UK government hid sick pay scheme for workers isolating with coronavirus

UK Treasury instructed government officials to conceal a little-known provision that granted sick pay to people isolating with the coronavirus.

So one of the big issues with test and trace was that some people couldn't afford to take 2 weeks off work. Wonder if this was made clear, would more people have self-isolated and there would have been less deaths.

Manchester Arena Inquiry: Bomb victims were failed on every level, family says

The Manchester Arena bomber should have been identified as a threat by security, an inquiry finds.
www.bbc.co.uk

Very sad. So many questions of if only. Shouldn't have been left to two inexperienced teenage security guards who someone flagged their suspicions to about the suicide bomber to take major flak for the rest of their lives.

So many other missed opportunities and the delayed response, which proved catastrophic.
 


Oh, so it was the Italians who helped the Democrats steal the 2020 US election From Trump. :rolleyes: Can Trump and co get any nuttier?
 
Thing is they never genuinely believed the election was stolen. They just wanted to push a narrative to undermine the result and also allow Trump to claim he never lost. The issue is how many Americans including some neutral and democrats believe there was election fraud. It is a narrative that is allowing the GOP to push forward with election legislation that does rig future elections for them and disenfranchises voters.
