@simon_brooke yeah, but has she repented, or is she just doing an Andy Burnham when the folks who fought for years in Liverpool finally got some justice? Not convinced.
@simon_brooke poor woman must’ve had bronchitis all this time. I also have a memory of her being very dismissive of protesters when she was confronted over Labour’s enabling of the genocide a few months ago.
It looks like she’s gonna be one of those people who will claim that she was defending Palestinian rights all along when she did nothing. I honestly don’t think that’s gonna work.

How you charge the Apple Magic Mouse is the least of its problems — that’s a little bit overblown. That said, this is legitimately funny 🤣
My bank emailed me "AI is changing check fraud. Here's what you can do to protect yourself."
Nonono, Mr. Banky-bank. Tell me what YOU are doing to protect me against check fraud. This is a you problem, caused by a system you designed and run. How about you don't externalize that cost onto me?
I have, since the 1980s, DESPISED any excuse like "oh sorry we got a new computer system" or "we can't do X anymore because of the computer". How you do business isn't my fucking problem. Don't give me excuses for not having your shit together.
This is the same as "we are experiencing unexpectedly high call volume." Well, that's pretty fucking poor planning on your part, then, innit? Hold times aren't long because of the forces of nature, they are because you're too fucking cheap to pay sufficient staff.
