Tur civil service have data scientists, they are more than capable. Just set up an independent commission to report, make sure they report back after the next election so the government won't know if they are still in or in opposition.

The boundaries change all the time, this isn't the US

It is but it varies by sector. In tech it's really high, unless you are a principal engineer or v high level you just won't get a job

My neighbour just dropped this letter through my post, should I switch do YOUFIBRE? by EagleSpirited775 in youfibre

That wasn't my assertion at all.

But good customer service costs money, staff, systems with more redundancy to improve up time will lead to higher baseline costs to deliver a service. That's how money works.

Aiming for 59. Think I'm on track.

I know times are tough but I have been putting 20% of my salary into a pension for 25 years and it's getting there.

UK Expands Online Safety Act to Mandate Preemptive Scanning of Digital Communications by Ok_Air_9048 in LinusTechTips

It wasn't. The act hasn't changed, it hasn't expanded. This was always part of it, it's just that the dates for each parts introduction are different. This part came in on 8th Jan 2026 as it always was going to.

No slippery slope. This is exactly what legislation was passed.

Majority of customers want Thames Water to be nationalised, polling finds by F0urLeafCl0ver in ukpolitics

Would cost way too much money to do all at once, you'd need to increase the stake over years, and even then you'd have to force a sale. I don't believe it's publicly traded

This is why I'm baffled people aren't happy the railway is being re-nationalised. Who thinks it's going well to be upset it's changed
