The most charitable reason would be “I don’t want to deal with corporate Bs”. I’m sure we’ve all worked in those types of places. Doesn’t really apply when it’s the Exco board though, if they say jump then it’s the CTOs job to make it happe

David Davis is somewhat unusual - he actually resigned as MP to protest against an erosion of civil liberties (and stood on a civil liberty platform) Westminster will be a worse place when he goes, which I assume will be in next year’s elec

No. Switzerland isn’t in the EU. Include non EU countries and the population and number of guns is even larger, but gun homicides don’t change much. Even gun suicides are far higher in the US per capita and per gun than in the EU. The US ha

Oh another “The US is big” post. The EU has 30% more people There are 60 times as many privately owned guns in the EU as there are in Montana. There are 5 time as many guns in the US, but 20 times as many murders. There is a cultural proble
