If any journalists reporting on tech-startups or financial shenanigans want to contact me, I think I have a story about a soon-to-IPO company possibly screwing over its early employees.

Reform’s response to the Channel 4 doc: “Reform UK has a robust vetting process for prospective donors approved by the Electoral Commission.” The Electoral Commission’s riposte: “The Electoral Commission has not approved the donor vetting process for Reform, or any other party.”

So it looks like Reform policy chief James Orr has straight up broken the law here. It's also exactly the same crime Farage has been accused of re: George Cottrell donating via his mother and which Parliament is currently investigating.

1. This short thread is about the issue that dominates almost every aspect of politics, and causes or exacerbates most of our problems: the extreme wealth of a small number of people. Here’s the amazing thing: almost the entire political class aligns with the ultra-rich against the rest. 🧵1/10

Sure. We're in this mess because we leaned too much on USA resources which left us unable to defend a European country against a nation with a tiny economy and tanks that get stuck in the mud. Why not spend what extra money we can find on the most expensive weapons which we never intend to use?

Brexit was a test run for politicians telling lies, it carried on without consequence Now social media companies are removing fact checkers What's the point of an Online Safety Act if it doesn't require platforms to filter out lies?

DAMMIT NPR. I spent nine months upgrading over TEN THOUSAND desktops at a F500 client. The grand total was over SEVENTY THOUSAND applications upgraded. Y2K "didn't live up to the hype" because the industry busted ass to duct tape everything first.

I doubled my salary by leaving the Civil Service. I don't claim to have been a lynchpin or a massive talent, but I was one of a number of people who couldn't afford to stay. Technical ability & strategic thinking is undervalued compared to managerial & budgetary skills.
