Yup I stand corrected, still an odious company though.

Are the P&O Ferries sackings legal?

P&O has been widely criticised for sacking 800 employees - but were its actions illegal?

Labour has launched a new 'Border Security Command' but it has been opined that it is far too reliant on co-operation from leaders such as France's Macron who it is feared is content to wave migrants through to punish us for Brexit.

Labour cancelled the Rwanda scheme but countries across Europe are looking at similar schemes to act as a deterrent to the people smuggling trade.

So obvious that there would be no cooperation from the French, never has been even before Brexit. I have said this many times. We may as well withhold any future payments to them, which were always a nonsense.

Keir Starmer faces calls for independent inquiry into Taylorgate

Fury grew last night as it emerged Taylor Swift was given taxpayer-funded protection after the Government's chief law officer was called in to put pressure on Scotland Yard.

An costly inquiry which showed Labour wrongdoing would achieve little but a small headline years away from an election. Of more concern is the refusal to show where the 20bn " black hole " comes from.

Well those tickets were like Gold dust! Surprising that the Mayor of London who wants to ban adverts on the Underground of scantily clad women would want to go and watch a scantily clad woman singing.
Quite obviously much pressure was applied and the Met Police Commanders have no backbone

I hadn't realised the police was running a taxi service 😀

On a more serious note I was staggered by this story from my neighbour.

On Monday she was at the window of her flat having a cigarette when she noticed a man trying to break into an Amazon van which was parked opposite us. She called the police and lo and behold they turned up and nicked the guy.

I guess things most have been a bit slow on social media that day and they had finished checking their white privilege.

Anyway well done the cops.

Sadik and Labour were foretold in the Qu'ran.

[4:142] Surely the hypocrites strive to deceive Allah, and He shall requite their deceit to them, and when they stand up to prayer they stand up sluggishly; they do it only to be seen of men and do not remember Allah save a little. The hypocrites indeed seek to deceive Allah, but it is He who outwits them.

They might have responded because over a week ago an Evri van was cleared out as the driver returned from a delivery. It was again in n Beckenham where you and your neighbour are. It’s on X somewhere.
