Even her own supporters don't really support her. There was an interview with a conservative MP on the financial times YouTube channel, What he basically said that he supports her more than he supports RJ but realistically neither of them are long-term viable candidates.

He said that as long as the conservatives obsess over the culture wars they'll never win another election.

Then he'll take over and try to bring the party back more towards the middle which will also fail because it'll immediately cause a bunch of infighting between those with more than two IQ points and the current lot.

The only way for the conservative party to survive now without splitting up is to have a cull of the extremists and I just don't think Cleverly has the balls for that.

Because it turned out that no one really needs to get between the UK and the US that quickly. If they do need to get between the UK and the US they're prepared to pay less for it to take longer because the price difference is substantial.

I don't really see a problem, there are very few acorns on aircraft.

I've just had to look out a morbid curiosity and yeah it's all Trump. I am being encouraged to vote for Donald Trump. This is a man who is to anathema pretty much all of my beliefs, of course I'm not going to vote for him he seriously wants to be a dictator.

Also, I'm not American so I can't vote for him anyway.

I seriously doubt she will last until the general election. I'm betting on a vote of no confidence within 2 years.

Stark actually was intelligent though. He really invented all the stuff he used, he earned the right to be a bit of an arse.

You don't need to have advanced technological know-how to know about phishing scams. Practically every company has a boring training course you have to go through at least once a year.

I work in cyber security and they still feel the need to tell us about phishing scams, like we don't know about 100 other scarier things.

It's always the same people in my experience. No matter how many times they go through the training it never seems to stick.

It's always being an attack vector. Phishing scams have been the oldest form of fraud from the beginning.

It's basically the same principle that con artists have been using for decades long before the invention of the internet

Then they fucked up further by not admitting it and continuing to go down a blind alley.

Every year the advertisers have a bidding wall to be the product that everyone wants. Anyway at least eggs make a change from Lynx Africa.
