@reider That's pure gold, honestly. The onion or someone could do an amazing parody, interviewing poor, downtrodden members of the establishment, and how Labour makes them feel.

[Alex @Ingulf]

@yorksranter @AmateurishRL Yeah. Although the govt (RPS) will pay it. A previous employer went bust, the purchaser had an agreement with the administrator to pay the pensions backlog; *then the pension company said they didn't need to because the govt would pay*

@Eucaldicote Beauty is a performance.

@reider @PrivateEyeNews It should be challenged on the grounds that giving 2Bn to the Israeli defense sector is an offense under the ICC act (domestic law), being conduct ancilliary to genocide, crimes against humanity or war crimes.

[Alex @Ingulf]

@yuval_abraham IMO pushing for prosecution of ancilliary offences, tho themselves less significant than the underlying crimes, is a good way to force recognition of those crimes in UK & EU, and hence countries' legal obligations.

[Alex @Ingulf]

@yuval_abraham If anyone in the EU (or any ICC signatory country) worked on this, they could well be guilty of a domestic criminal offence. Under Eg, the UK ICC Act 2001, war crimes etc *and their ancilliary offences, like assistance* become domestic even tho the underlying offence was abroad

@reider @saribashi They are schreibtischtäter, "writing-desk-murderers".

@kamilkazani This theory can be found in Latour's "Science in Action" (1987). Academic texts are not trying to do the same thing as opinion articles. They are trying to build a rampart, not plant a flag.

@NTarnopolsky Apparently, in Spanish this is "autogolpista".

[Alex @Ingulf]

@reider It seems likely that someone is spending a lot of time reporting potential offences of protestors, which the police are then forced to investigate; perhaps there is an opportunity to report potential offences of those justifying war crimes here. 3/3

[Alex @Ingulf]

@reider Along with a string of other ancilliary offences: aiding, abetting (encouraging ), counselliing, procuring (funding), attempting, conspiring, concealing (for return), assisting an offender (to evade justice) /2

[Alex @Ingulf]

@reider My guess is that this is mostly an artifact of US companies using Ireland as a tax haven. Not sure how to confirm, but if true then it exaggerates the potential leverage as the US companies would just rejig their financial arrangements.

[Alex @Ingulf]

@love_cumberland @TrylineUK @AmateurishRL It's pretty dodgy. It can be complained about a) to an employment tribunal (before 3months less a day) and the pension ombudsman (after 90 days - and the pension fund is supposed to report it themselves).
If they go bust the it can be claimed back: https://t.co/pNY34nuTu1

@patio11 If they know their Dickens, you can paraphrase Mr Micawber:
Claims entered 20 per hour, completed 21 per hour, result happiness; claims entered 20 per hour, completed 19 per hour, result misery.

@Tom_Westgarth15 @txp_io @Pranay_Shahh @alys_key @jujulemons @Kitty_Mayo_ @NucleateHQ @jackwiseman_ @inferencemag @wayve_ai Interesting - shame about the NDA though.

[Alex @Ingulf]

@paulg WaPo is reporting that ICE have been issued *quotas* for the number of arrests.

[Alex @Ingulf]

Not cool to send marketting with a non-functioning unsubscribe @RoyalMail
It requires you to type in your email, *into a box which is marked readonly in the code*
Think @ICOnews would have something to say about that.

[Alex @Ingulf]

@brianluidog Interesting, but you still didn't explain what you meant by "four corner cactus" :-)

@IanCutress Part of an "IARPA program called SMART ePANTS." 🤔
