and interesting, 9 days after emailing them confirming I refuse to have a smart meter, and requesting confirmation that they accept this - no response. Last issue i had with them took months and a formal complaint running beyond its time to get a meaningful response. Octopus must have set on some NPower staff. They not quite @NPower level yet, but seem to be heading that way fast in lack of competence if not utter maliciousness.

Oh - and dont forget - under WTO RULES - NOT applying tariffs has to apply to EVERYONE who doesn't have an alternate 'deal' - and most of which existing deals will undoubtedly be cancelled if its to the other parties benefit unless the UK unilaterally drop them The UK doesn't apply tariffs as the Brexitish are incompetent - but other countries can - What a bonus for foreigners eh Brexitish? - all as obvious and stated years ago in the other thread.

I see the Brexit-ish are again delaying implementing their 'grate deal' 'protecting the UKs borders' that they pressed through with the wholehearted support of MPs like smugg - who is now one of the main moaners saying this inflation raising and business destroying 'great deal' shouldn't be implemented. Of course 3 of the benefits of NOT implementing the Brexitish grate deal as the Brexitish negotiated are: 1. Less UK businesses will collapse 2. UK inflation NOT increased by 0.6% (hence fiddling the figures to us scraping NOT being in a Brexit generated recession) 3.

Interesting point here to take into account with all the seeming attempts to deflect the blame onto Davey, or someone/anyone else BUT the people who have been in power for the last decade+ - apparently including Arbuthnot .. Former Post Office chief executive Paula Vennells failed to tell MPs about 16 investigated cases where the Horizon computer software had made errors more than a decade ago, the inquiry into the scandal has heard. Questioned by members of parliament in 2012, Ms Vennells said there had not been a case investigated by authorities where the software was found to be at fault. But, according to Jason Beer KC, lead counsel to the inquiry, there have been 16 reports of bugs in the software or court cases where workers were found not guilty. He asked Tory peer and long-standing advocate for victims of the Post Office scandal James Arbuthnot, who was present at the meeting, if Ms Vennells or other managers mentioned these cases, which appeared to show the software was capable of making mistakes. The former Conservative MP (James Arbuthnot) said she and her colleagues had not mentioned any of them. So - 1. Why would anyone think they didn't lie to MPs before? Inc Davey as he states 2. Why were the PO not questioned more on these claims in the decade following 2012 since it was KNOWN they were false - as Arbuthnot should have known - as his own testimony highlights? Dont get me wrong - I think Maddleson has questions to answer - and primarily every gov interface/ since .. especially since 2012, and most especially since 2015. With likelihood of actual knowledgeable cover up increasing with every year since 2012 IMO.

Mr. Mansour used to be a Cabinet Minister in Egypy, he has given the Tories a huge amount of money, and immediately gets a knighthood. That seems straightforwardly corrupt.

David Lammy dares to read out a genuine breaking news headline to the ire of GBNews MP-presenters and staff - who allegedly complain multiple times each Just waiting for some cretin to whine about Lammy daring to read out an actual breaking news headline on his show, instead of spouting unchallenged and unbalanced (sic) right wing propaganda .. as GBNews does day after day after day. It seems the 57 GBNews supporters and presenters complained to ofcom at his utter gall "During that broadcast, Mr Lammy read out a breaking news bulletin, informing listeners of his LBC show that Sir Jeffrey Donaldson had resigned as DUP leader after being charged with allegations of a historical nature. Ofcom is understood to be investigating the programme in relation to two sections of the Broadcasting Code, which state that news in whatever form must be presented with due impartiality, and that politicians cannot act as a newsreader, interviewer or reporter in any news programmes without exceptional editorial justification." GBNews was rumoured to have claimed that their copy-write was breached. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/david-lammy-lbc-ofcom-rules-labour-b2525058.html

also, as Vennels forfeited her CBE for “bringing the honours system into disrepute” - what about those who forwarded and promoted her for the honor - despite many of the issues already in plain sight?

Disguise .. Can't see why she didn't just lie - lying/deceit/disingenuity seems to NOT have been an issue for her previously - other than trying to get others to take the fall for it perhaps .. and I've still found nothing that warranted her now removed 'honor' or anything other than connections with 'important people' that have generated her rise through 'business .. or the church .. strangely .. That generated dark thoughts of Saville .. although even that monster seemingly did more for charity than Vennells ever did, and probably destroyed fewer lives

Yep - but detail seems to be filling in - probably due to leaks from the Johnson/Truss 'end of the party in advance of preparation for the latest brutus moment
