"Keir Starmer tells regulators to chill as Microsoft exec takes wheel of advisory council
What could possibly go wrong?"

A legal professional in the UK voiced concerns about potential conflict of interest in hiring a Microsoft exec to work in a public sector role.

"Leaving aside the crass stupidity of appointing the UK head of a US HQ'ed global supplier under ongoing active investigation by the CMA for alleged manipulation of their market share, the gov[ernment] have arguably both sent a clear message of their faith and dependency on Microsoft AND dealt the CMA's investigation a crashing blow," he told The Reg.

Buy your Microsoft Shares now! Right wing governments allowing foreign nationals to formulate policies - indeed what possibly can go wrong.

I wonder which ‘Two Tier’ justice system Mike Amesbury is going to receive? The ‘Lock ‘em up’ straight away because they’ve posted something nasty on Facetube, or the ‘Try and forget about it’ system used if you kick off with armed Police in Manchester airport, going to be interesting this.

Or the same a Ricky Jones with his ‘we need to cut their throats and get rid of them’. whilst the unrest was going on.

Any coincidense that Ricky Jones court date is the same day as the budget when all the news will be about us all getting poorer if that's possible!!!

They'll have to release a couple of prisoners to get Jones and Amesbury behind bars where they belong surely....I'll not hold my breath!

Pleading guilty does tend to expedite the justice process.

Pleading guilty does tend to expedite the justice process.

With respect , so does the implied threat of an extended period on remand, without bail.

Pleading guilty does tend to expedite the justice process.

As does having multiple videos of the incident and eye witnesses. Well usually it would.

The two Manchester Airport thugs have pleaded guilty?

[BigFatPie]

The two Manchester Airport thugs have pleaded guilty?

As you know you referred to two different cases, the riots during the summer and those inciting them, and also the incident at Manchester airport. Two completely different cases.

In only one of those situations have people been charged and pleaded guilty and seeing as though you brought them both up, you must know which one?

I see Tommy ten passports has also pleaded guilty to contempt of court.

It's political correctness gone mad!
