@IfindRetards Plumber: If the bath is overflowing with 60 litres in it, does adding 10 litres make the problem better, or worse?
Green Party: The problem is the lack of gender neutral taps.
Walk into any UK office at 3pm on a Friday and you'll see something that's quietly become normal.
Most desks are empty. The ones that aren't have someone leaning back, scrolling on their phone, or staring at a single email they've been 'working on' since 2pm.
The few people actually doing work are doing it slowly enough that it could have been finished in 20 minutes if anyone was actually paying attention.
The boss is in their office on a personal call, or out at a long lunch, or working from home so they don't have to see it.
This is what the average UK office costs the average UK business โ about 12 paid working hours a week that nobody is actually doing anything meaningful in.
The 4-day work week conversation has nothing to do with whether the work fits into 4 days. Most people are already doing it in 3, and nobody at the top wants to admit it out loud.
@RichardJMurphy Easy. Set a balanced budget where you only spend what you receive in tax. Next, pay back everything you owe.
Finally, you can ignore bond markets.
@Chris_Leigh_UK@KCChiefinGas@elonmusk Currently, it would stop and you'd have to manually reverse.
Noting the last passing space and reversing to it is just a matter of learning though. The tech is already more than capable.
@redrumlisa Owen Jones came to Llandudno Junction in 2019 together with a load of middle class students.
It was utterly embarrassing knocking doors with them.
Labour lost, unsurprisingly.
@darrengrimes Farage has a fine political nose. He knows the public school angle is a weak spot so uses the FT journalist as a football.
Working class voters aren't quite as thick as he thinks though.
