That does not really negate the point you replied to. Europe maybe has less inequality than USA, but situation is still not great https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/paris-author...

It might seem like an absurd threat to you, but 8 people were killed by terrorists near my office in London a few months ago, including one of my colleagues. I would also not like to see Orwell's book bought to life, but perhaps you ca

I like it for exactly the same reasons as you, and I'll recommend some highlights to my young nieces. But at the same time I am struggling to figure out my own feeling that a good speaker is a good speaker regardless of race or gender

Yes. NHS has a national level support agreement for XP. There are a lot of legacy systems and it's not just the bother of replacing the system, there are a lot of front line staff who only know how to use specific applications and are

What is the reason local GPs are not meant to use NHS.net email? I work in the sector and I thought it was policy to have them use it as the approved platform to securely communicate with secondary care.

The article names several non UK companies as suppliers of the technology. They shouldn't have much trouble getting visas for their installation teams. I think the really interesting point was that UK firms lag behind other countries i
