@SCharkewycz @Heccles94 @DWPgovuk I’m sure it’s fine, will probably have AI involved soon and then it will all be better.

@Heccles94 @DWPgovuk I imagine these things are outsourced so they dont have any come back and its not tracked like it should be. Very poor especially when it could affect claims

Was it an ‘honest error’ to give contracts worth hundreds of millions to Doug Barrowman:
• without competitive tender
• with a huge built in mark up
• whose company, formed 2 days before, had no experience in the market
• in return for unusable PPE
Funnelling taxpayers’ money to your friends, donors & other cronies is called ‘corruption’ everywhere outside Westminster.

The Tories' VIP Lane procurement scheme allowed a cabinet minister to dish a PPE contract out to the landlord of his local boozer without a tender. Glad that Baroness Hallett is now calling this out, but some of us were highlighting this issue in 2020.

@kennyboyneil Get what you mean about his age but not like he’s ever been particularly mobile anyway.

Especially when they offer you top dollar and a 4 year deal at 29. Fucking bananas this deal.

Another scoop for Fabrizio! It’s definitely not like the manager said this to the press yesterday or anything!

I’ve mentioned before that if our midfield signings are dependent on outgoings we are fucked bc it means the club fundamentally don’t understand what we need.

[🟢] “A lot of speculation about midfield. That would only be one that might happen if somebody leaves and Ayyoub Bouaddi who we talked about before, Liverpool are among the clubs that love him, as I said previously who doesn’t, so we will have to see on that one.” [@David_Ornstein on the @TheAthleticFC Podcast]

As well as being an important piece of socio-political archive, this news clip serves to show how the accent has changed over 40 years.

During the #MinersStrike Liverpool dockers collected food and funds in solidarity with striking miners.

@LewisFN00 I saw someone saying today that Leoni not that close to being fit, if true then we definitely need another centre half. Would like one anyway in truth.
English
Van Dijk (35) playing more minutes than EVERYONE.
Leoni (19) coming off an ACL.
Jacquet (21) 32 top-flight starts in his entire career.
Gomez (29) never fit.
I think we'll be fine, but I understand the concerns.

I don't understand, we got enough CBs and even LB options what risk are you talking about lmao

@LewisJones_90 @Zicozico1011752 Yeah, would always be preferable to keep things quiet whenever possible.

@Kev80Lpool @Zicozico1011752 We've always operated with our cards close to our chest. And for good reason

Clearly a hot take considering the panic, but here we go: this is a perfectly serviceable squad for a top 4 finish, and maybe more. There will inevitably be some new additions and some outgoings, but some need to screw their heads back on and trust the process

🔴 As pre-season officially gets underway, this is the state of the Liverpool squad. Needs some serious work, right? 🤨

@Zicozico1011752 @LewisJones_90 When and where did he say that? He wasn’t in charge of transfers anyway but it’s not like anyone at the club is going to come out and say we’ve got loads to spend.

@LewisJones_90 @Kev80Lpool No Kev
Slot let us know it was sell to buy this summer
That only works if clubs want your players FSG business model has stalled now.
Let’s see if they back their man

Because it fits public prejudice about what is and isn’t a ‘legitimate’ illness—and that prejudice is fuelled by a poor understanding that illness incidence can fluctuate with help-seeking, diagnostic practices, and changes in risk factors such as poverty
Al Bundy@anonoccu1
@cedgson91 @Shrink_at_Large I'm not getting this what am I missing? I thought health benefit in particular PIP was more focused on daily impact of someone's condition rather than the actual diagnosis? So why do ADHD, AUTISM, MH constantly mentioned to stop getting benefits?
English
@SamMcGuire90 Isn’t there a shortage of spaces in the squad before we move anyone out?
English
We need about four new signings before replacing anyone that leaves. Busy month ahead for Hughes. Hopefully he fits some transfers for Liverpool in around his Al Hilal responsibilities.

And good to point out that this is us subsidising Tesco. Politicians of all stripes complain that the benefit bill is too high, so some (of the poor) will have to get less. But in fact we are paying to allow large corporations to pay below-subsistence wages.
BladeoftheSun@BladeoftheS
Tesco are making £4bn a year in profit. About 50% of their staff are on Universal Credit. Why don't we crackdown on this unneeded benefit for billionaires?

@Callum_TH It looks to me like it did probably hit something but it doesn’t look conclusive I don’t think. Dubious about the sensor stuff though, wouldn’t shock me if it wasn’t entirely accurate.
English
Hilarious to double down on this and post the absolutely slam dunk footage.
FIFA Media@fifamedia
Before England’s goal in minute 45+2 against Norway, the sensor in the Connected Ball showed no peak in the 'heartbeat of the ball' when in the air, and therefore no evidence that the ball touched the overhead wire and changed the movement of the ball.

Meet Gemma Mattinson, one of the organisers of the "Pink Ladies." She claims she wants to protect women and girls.
In 2011, she and her then boyfriend, Ian Barclay, were jailed for child cruelty after being filmed forcing two children, both under the age of 8, to physically fight each other while they laughed.
A young girl was ordered to hit a boy with a broom and plastic sticks. When the boy tried to hide, he was dragged across the floor and slammed into a radiator.
They both pled guilty.
She was sentenced to 8 months in prison, and her ex received a 12-month sentence.
Now, she has rebranded herself and is targeting asylum seekers staying in hotels.

@camou86 @BlueSteelblue @laligafraudss My understanding is there had been people who’d used the islands before but nobody was living there when Europeans (initially and mainly) started to settle there.

Large companies who refuse to pay a wage that is enough so people don't have to claim UC should be made to PAY BACK every penny the employee has had to claim from the Govt. They can bill the companies yearly - THERE'S welfare reform in one hit.
