Bit Late To The Party, MSM?

I mean, he's been in and out of your pages for years, and this is a sudden revelation? I wonder what could have prompted this Damascan turnabout?

Another day, another egotistical meathead who thinks he has what it takes to run a country. Retired MMA star Connor McGregor was poised to make a UFC comeback but has canceled those plans to instead run for president of Ireland in 2025.

Ah. Now it all becomes clear. And this makes it even clearer: 

“Ireland, we are at war,” McGregor posted the night before the riots. As rioters descended on Dublin following rumors that a knife attack that left three children hospitalized was committed by an immigrant of Arab descent, McGregor continued to stoke tensions, asserting that “we are not backing down, we are only warming up. We are not losing any more of our women and children to sick and twisted people who should not even be in Ireland in the first place.” In a separate post, he added: “You reap what you sow.”

And the MSM, who's darling you once were, will ensure no-one with the wrong political opinions gets a foot on the ladder. 

It’s right there in front of us … for those who have eyes to see

Been awhile since I posted the same post in various places at the same time … here goes …

Oh and just a reminder:

Ridding ourselves of this “Chucky”

Yes, that was posted in connection to Haigh but I’m sure the thought was in many a person’s mind how to apply it to Two-Tier and his whole horror govt.

How Are You Going To Keep Them On The Farm…?

...when they've seen the lights of gay Paree?

Staff have resigned at Starling Bank after its new chief executive demanded thousands of workers attend its offices more frequently, despite lacking enough space to host them. In his first major policy change since taking over from the UK digital bank’s founder, Anne Boden, in March, Raman Bhatia has ordered all hybrid staff – many of whom were in the office only one or two days a week, or on an ad-hoc basis – to travel to work for a minimum of 10 days each month. But the bank, which operates online only, admitted that some of its offices would not be equipped to handle the influx.

Ha ha ha ha ha! What a clown!  

“We are aware that in some office locations we may not be able to accommodate 10 office working days per month for everyone right now. We are considering ways in which we can create more space,” an email sent by Starling’s human resources team and seen by the Guardian said.

Perhaps they can all sit on each other's laps? I'm sure that won't freak out the HR teams!  

Starling has 3,231 staff, the vast majority of whom are in the UK with some also in Dublin. However, the Guardian understands that the bank has only about 900 desks, including 260 at its Cardiff site, 320 in its London headquarters and 155 in Southampton.

Making sre people come in to the office requires that there be room in the office, doesn't it?  

The announcement led to a flurry of complaints from staff on the company’s internal Slack messaging channels, with many highlighting the lack of desk and parking spaces, as well as disruption to their work-life balance. Some staff have already resigned over the “rushed” announcement, while others have threatened to do so. One staffer, who has handed in their notice, told the Guardian: “I’ve worked for Starling for years, and have done my job effectively while working almost entirely from home.

“Being asked without warning to take on the time, expense and life disruption of returning to the office for half of the working week is not something I can personally understand or accept, so I made the decision to resign.”

Well, there's one desk free at least!  

Bhatia said “the leadership team has been thinking for some time about how to operationalise this because we share a conviction that working in the office is important for creativity, collaboration, problem solving, performance and engagement”.

It really doesn't sound like the leadership team has been thinking at all. 

Happy Thanksgiving to our American readers

Julia and I, probably Grandpa too, wish y’all a fine feast today, minus chemical poisoning.

Poisoned cows, adulterated milk

Firstly, apologies to Julia … “her OoL day” is today as a rule, “mine” is tomorrow.  However, my Thursday post needs to come forward as the topic has now exploded across the net, esp. on X.

I’ve been ordering my food from Morrisons but a few months back, they removed pints of milk or 500ml and instead sell only quarts of whole, semi and skimmed. I use whole but noticed that it had a special “m” designation if whole, sourced in … yep … Wales.

I was thinking I’d escaped the evil stuff, took my current plastic container out and checked where it’s from … yep … from Wales (in very fine print).

This is the state of our food supply just now.  Starmer, Sunak, Gates and Blackrock head all need executing … legally of course, by proper officers.

Arla Foods creates new collective project with Morrisons, Tesco and Aldi to trial the use of Bovaer®

British farmers that make up the UK’s biggest dairy cooperative, Arla, have joined forces with some of the biggest retailers in the country to tackle methane emissions. In a first of its kind joint initiative, the project will see a collective effort across the food industry to trial the use of Bovaer®, a feed additive that reduces enteric methane emissions from cows on average, by 27%*

As part of its FarmAhead™ Customer Partnership initiative, Arla will work alongside retail partners Morrisons and Aldi, and with Tesco on its new Future Dairy Partnership initiative, to highlight how feed additives can be introduced to normal feeding routines. The new project which will also involve around 30 of Arla’s farmer owners, aims to provide a better understanding of how these feed additives can be rolled out across a larger group of farmers.

Paul Dover, UK Agricultural Director at Arla Foods, comments: “We know that reducing methane is a big opportunity when it comes to improving our carbon footprint at farm level and feed additives like Bovaer® have huge potential in helping us tackle this issue. Bringing partners together from across the food & grocery industry in this kind of initiative highlights the support there is for British farmers in transitioning to more sustainable farming methods.

“We are extremely excited about this new collective way of working alongside our retail partners and the possibilities that feed additives, such as this one, present. However, rolling them out at scale will not be easy due to the cost involved, so it’s important we understand more about their usage potential and then work together with the industry, government and our partners to support farmers if we want to harness the opportunity they present in driving down emissions.”

Arla’s Bovaer® trial will provide a more practical understanding of how to scale the use of feed additives, how it impacts on farm operations and the opportunity to work more collaboratively with the feed industry.

In a joint comment, Morrisons, Aldi and Tesco say: “Through collaboration as part of Arla’s FarmAhead™ Customer Partnership, we have the ability to address some of the climate challenges facing our food system. It is this collective approach that is really going to make a difference. Being involved in using a feed additive is a great way of testing out where we can drive change at scale to bring down emissions.”

Andrew Barraclough, Arla Farmer owner and one of those involved in using Bovaer® comments: “Working on initiatives that help reduce our impact on the environment is something that I am extremely passionate about. We know that feed additives have a lot of potential in helping us to reduce emissions, but they can be expensive, which adds to the overall cost in producing milk.

Farmers are trying to accelerate the transition to more sustainable dairy farming, but we can’t do it alone. It’s why collective initiatives like this between Arla and its customers are so important for farmers – we need the wider industry to come together and support us if we are going to drive change.”

As part of its ongoing commitment to reducing the impact of dairy production, Arla has ambitious science-based targets, including reducing CO2e emissions from scope 3 by 30% by 2030. Its FarmAhead™ Customer Partnership brings together retail and partners like Morrisons and Aldi, with Arla’s data and measurement tools. This allows customers to support farmers with innovation, research and new ways of driving down emissions to lead on-farm sustainability and be at the forefront of decarbonising dairy.

Arla and Tesco also recently announced the Future Dairy Partnership, a farmer-led partnership which aims to put sustainability at the heart of the dairy industry. The Future Dairy Partnership aims to accelerate the reduction of carbon emissions, enhance animal welfare and protect and restore nature, whilst promoting a shared vision for the dairy industry to collaborate to build a more resilient and sustainable future.”

Caveat Emptor, Labour Voters!

A government policy to create 100,000 new nursery places using spare capacity in English primary schools is “unlikely to work”, according to research. The research blames a geographical mismatch between capacity and demand, while leaders in the sector have raised concerns about staffing, the provision of sleep areas for the youngest children, toilets that are too big and sinks that are too high for nursery age children.

Another Labour campaign promise spirals to the ground in flames, like a novice pilot in 1918 who tried to tackle Von Richthofen... 

The success of the policy is critical as the government is under pressure to create sufficient places to fulfil its promise of 30 hours of free childcare a week for eligible parents of children aged from nine months to three years from next September.

And is it not gouing to meet that anywhere? 

FE says London is the only region where spare reception space will meet and could exceed additional demand for nursery places, as schools in the capital’s rolls fall due to a declining birthrate. Elsewhere, only a small proportion of projected demand will be met by spare capacity – just 13% in the East Midlands, 25% in the east of England and 32% in the West Midlands.

Ah. Well, to Starmer's mob, no doubt London's all that counts, so they'll probably simply declare victory regardless.  

Socialism equals destruction

Parhaps A Name Change Is In Order?

Heaven nightclub has been shut down immediately after a bouncer was charged with raping a drunk woman who had been turned away from the venue. The world famous gay club had its licence suspended for 28 days following an emergency hearing at Westminster council on Friday.

Sound a lot like the Other Place. 

The woman said she was attacked by a bouncer on November 1 and was then “ignored” when she tried to report the assault to other club security staff, the meeting was told.

The expedited licensing review heard that detectives arrested the suspect at Heaven on November 11.

Subsequent enquiries showed that the arrested man was not permitted to work in the UK and may have “provided a false name to his employer in order to gain work”.

Morenikeji Adewole, 47, of Dunlop Close, Dartford – also known as Olu Julius or Olusolu Alabi – was charged with rape on Wednesday, the Met Police said.

Is there anyone in the security industry who can do a good job and appropriate due diligence, because it doesn't seem like it... 

Amy Lame, who was Sadiq Khan's night tsar until last month, appeared to disagree with the decision to revoke Heaven's licence. She wrote on Instagram: "Our community is being held to double standards, targeted by institutional homophobia and is the victim of legally questionable interpretation of licensing regulations. Let the battle commence."

They aren't shutting the place because it's full of irons, Amy, but because it's full of dodgy security staff and unsafe! I'd tell you to wind your neck in, but from photos, it appeard you don't have one.
