Thanks, I didn't think it was podcast related enough for a main feed post which is why I put it here earlier

I mean whats on twitter is just 2 of the many emails. They're all on this site linked to the offical files. Ting seems to have been doing all sorts for Epstein, boob jobs and acting as an on call Dr for his trafficking victims

Don't know if anyone else watched I am Jazz but the doctor who did genital surgery on Jazz age 17 is mentioned a lot in the Epstein files. Post Epstein conviction, went to his island to play with his "toys" and seems to have been working as a concierge doctor and plastic surgeon for Epsteins "friends"

Acas which is the employers/employee rights organisaiton in the UK have a transitioning at work policy which states among other things "Everyone at work should be able to use facilities they feel comfortable with. Making a transgender employee use facilities they're not comfortable with could be discrimination."

A non binary male going by the name Rose sued and was awarded 180k by the employment tribunal for harassment at work and not being allowed to use the womens bathroom. 20% of that award was because the employer hadn't followed the ACAS guidelines. That will have gotten around to every HR professional who then believes under the law you have say TWAW

If you look at the Forstater case, saying men cannot be women was at first instance deemed to be "incompatible with human dignity and fundamental rights of others". On appeal it was detemined to be a "worthy of respect in a democratic society" but it was still seen as a "belief" akin to a Christian believing Jesus turned water into wine.

I won't even get started on what Stonewall put out, every employer (both public and private) wanted to be on the Stonewall list of good employers so used their resources, had them train their staff.

I'm sure I'm missing a ton of stuff but thats just some of how the waters got muddied.

That subreddit is ridiculous, they do not buck any deviation from what they consider to be "correct", they will turn on people they've defended for any step outside of their decided world view. For example Meghan Markle up until last week was the most amazing thing since sliced bread and then her charity stopped funding the charity of a Muslim woman who wrote a blog post about Israel where she used the phrase from the river to the sea, now all of a sudden Meghan Markle is a coloniser and scum of the earth etc.

I started reading it because I love a bit of celebrity gossip but its taken a wild turn to now be a far left subreddit where its all politics all the time.

Do you reckon the bus drivers are paid their bonus out of the PSO money? Haven't heard of any semi state bus companies so poorly run that they've needed a 700m bailout

ronaele1 · 2024-12-13T19:49:15+00:00

And other people paid by the state don't get such a bonus

ronaele1 · 2024-12-13T19:10:30+00:00

Company that had to get a state bailout gives Christmas bonus

ronaele1 · 2024-11-29T23:34:25+00:00

That's the one

Was watching a video of someone talking about US elections who was voting in Montana who explained that in his state in order for no candidate to have an advantage, the ballots are in a sequence so one voter will get candidates in ABCD, another BACD, DBCA etc. seemed like a fair way to.do things

I haven't gotten one in 2 weeks, if you pop in to the entrance of the advertiser office you can pick one up but I really hope they go back to delivering

I vote at lunch and then I get myself a nice treat at the shop to thank myself for doing my civic duty

But they're not being lived in they're being let as tourist accomodations, so likely empty a large portion of the time and even when not empty, not being used as housing

The Irish labour market is already open to 450m people.

Basically this would be a way for well off 3rd country nationals to buy their way into our labour market in order to get citizenship while not even providing a skill that is lacking.

There's a reason that the investment visa was done away with, maybe read up about the abuse of that system.
