Coupled with her plans to effectively deport from Doctors she's a pretty shitty person in my eyes.
What plan to "deport foreign Doctors"?
You shouldn't believe everything you read in the Guardian!
And what's wrong with having time limits on work permits?
Or is the US the sink of depravity too?
[Amber Rudd] Asked whether she could reassure foreign NHS staff they were welcome to stay for now, she said: “Yes. There will be staff here from overseas in that interim period – until the further number of British doctors are able to be trained and come on board in terms of being able to work in our hospitals."
Seems pretty clear, unless she misheard the question and was talking instead about foreign doctors employed on future short term contracts.
So no, she didn't say "we'll deport foreign doctors"
Glad we cleared that up.
I said effectively deport, you don't have to use the word to carry out the act.
When are you defecting to the LibDems, Mr Eagles?
I'm staying inside the tent, to ensure Mrs May's replacement is a decent, honourable, and election winning Tory.
I didn't quit when IDS became leader, and I'm not going because of Mrs May.
What is your objection to Mrs May. Do you think she has been too shrill on immigration? My Facebook timeline has been full of bile but I was surprised by how reasonable the BBC was last night. May herself didn't see very shocking. I'd have preferred it if she'd reached out to migrants alredy here saying their contribution was valued whatever future policy might be but has she actually attacked immigrants? And wasn't she one of the first Tories to be openly pro-gay?
She would be a fool to do that and then have the EU say they are going to throw all British Nationals out, we need to appear to be on the fence to keep them honest even if the overwhelmingly likely result is as you say.

Grammar shcool Girl (who got into Oxford....)
See, grammar schools don't help kids, they end up in universities that are complete dumps
Cameron and Osborne went to a "complete dump"?
You didn't apply, by any chance did you?
Nah. In my day you could only apply to either Oxford or Cambridge, not both, so I applied to the best university in the world, Cambridge.

The contract has nothing to do with it. I have worked in several countries on work permits on effectively a permanent staff contract, if your work permit is renewed you continue, if it isnt you have defacto resigned, welcome to how things work in 120+ countries of the world.
It's already in place in the British Isles - medical staff come to Guernsey on fixed term contracts and are "deported" at the end of them.....it's how work permits work....
To be clear -
Although in the British Isles, Guernsey is not in the EU of course and thus an example of how most of the world operate.
Very true as a former expat that has worked under time limited work permits in 4 other countries.

Yes, it is well known that I'm a former public schoolboy.
All the signs have been in my thread headers, with, inter alia, their erudition, Latin, and vast knowledge of history, oh and epic amounts of modesty.
In important news, Skyrim (and, later, Fallout 4) will be getting mods on PS4, albeit with limitations. No word on total size restriction, but there will be no custom assets. So, better than nothing, but still clearly inferior to Xbox One.

You missed out the well known public schoolboy trait of hating selective grammars schools despite having been to an even more selective private school. See Hunt, The Hon Tristram.
As was Osborne with his social engineering, politically motivated budget wheezes, attempts to run the whole government from the Treasury and micro-meddling with the economy, but you seem to like him just fine.
"This latest, million-pound research was funded by the Natural Environment Research Council and alongside Cambridge, experts from the universities of Manchester and Hertfordshire, Imperial College London, CERC Limited and the National Physics lab were involved. Heathrow helped them put the sensors up and British Airways provided some flight data, but neither handed over any money or were involved in the actual work."
Independent?
Sounds pretty independent. How else would you locate sensors on an airport? How else would you get flight data?
1. Natural Environment Research Council are "supported mainly by the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS)". So funded by Govt and they then produce research with friendly help from the two companies that want a good result. 2. The assumptions on diesil engines in 2025+ look as reliable as a german car manufacturers compliance with EU emission standards.
You can't really look through funding like that. NERC commissions on an arms length basis.
It's like saying that when the Arts Council gives me money it's Theresa herself making the decision...
In important news, Skyrim (and, later, Fallout 4) will be getting mods on PS4, albeit with limitations. No word on total size restriction, but there will be no custom assets. So, better than nothing, but still clearly inferior to Xbox One.
There are some really good mods for Skyrim that transform the game play and raise it to a whole new, and much harder, level. I particularly recommend the mod which introduces the effects of weather and starvation and the one which gives actual weight to money and other possessions.
She would be a fool to do that and then have the EU say they are going to throw all British Nationals out, we need to appear to be on the fence to keep them honest even if the overwhelmingly likely result is as you say.
She could just say that their right to Remain was dependent on reciprocal arrangements with other EU countries. Unless the government thinks this is one of their best cards? An ace rather than a 7.
That is actually exactly what the government has said
Paraphrasing: We'd like to guarantee the rights of EU citizens living in Britain; it's intrinsically linked to securing the rights of British citizens living in the EU. We are sure that it will be very easy to deal with if the EU is prepared to approach things sensibly and constructively.
Mr. Llama, those survival type mods are precisely the type of thing that would interest me (I'm not interested in most of them, frankly). I'm not sure whether they'd be permitted, or if some fiddling would be needed with the interface so there's no new custom assets.

But that isnt good enough for the outrage bus people.
We have to remember there are a significant number of people that will do anything to get BrExit to fail, one way to do that is to drive the government into giving away negotiating cards through political necessity, and then pointing and laughing when the negotiation blows up.
This is stupid of course because after A50 is activated, we are leaving, all f*cking up the negotiation does is ensure we leave with a bad deal, or direct to WTO terms, it won't prevent us leaving.
There seems to be this perception that after two years of negotiation, some of it probably quite hard and acrimonious, we can tell the EU that we didn't really mean it and carry on as before, I think they might be disappointed.

They have said that. David Davis (Secretary of State for Brexit) said that and said he wanted it to be one of the first things agreed in negotiations so that people have stability and confidence.

I'm waiting for the 3-5% speech bounce, the kind which makes seats 50-100 in Con targets look obtainable - the anti-May spin will be a sight to behold....
It will be interesting to see if it registers- after Labour saw nothing despite "having the best conference" (sic) and May's "subdued speech which did not have much substance" (OGH).
Although it got good coverage in the anticipated papers I'm not sure much attention is paid - what matters is the delegates went away with a spring in their step.
You're right of course, but for me it was the solid hour of good coverage on the BBC that suggests (and of course affects how) this is going to resonate. News at Ten followed by Newsnight.
I've never seen (b. 1987) such unwavering support from the BBC for a Tory leader.
You are young!

Mr. Indigo, there's a clear hierarchy with PC top of the tree, Xbox One with quite a lot, and PS4 with some but nothing too fancy. Still a positive for Xbox One in the console war, of course.
The only mods I'm especially interested in, along with more hairstyles (which seems off the agenda) are survival type thingummyjigs which *may* be possible. I'll see if they come through.
Mind you, there's Tomb Raider next week, I still want XCOM 2 and I don't have bags of time/money, so I'll employ a Theresa May-like approach of masterly inactivity to see whether the PS4 mods look tempting before deciding whether to buy.
Labour doing very well in West Midlands, OK in London and SE, but down elsewhere. The vagaries of local elections make the significance of individual results obscure, but the overall averages are a bit more interesting.

Paraphrasing: We'd like to guarantee the rights of EU citizens living in Britain; it's intrinsically linked to securing the rights of British citizens living in the EU. We are sure that it will be very easy to deal with if the EU is prepared to approach things sensibly and constructively.
But that isnt good enough for the outrage bus people.
We have to remember there are a significant number of people that will do anything to get BrExit to fail, one way to do that is to drive the government into giving away negotiating cards through political necessity, and then pointing and laughing when the negotiation blows up.
This is stupid of course because after A50 is activated, we are leaving, all f*cking up the negotiation does is ensure we leave with a bad deal, or direct to WTO terms, it won't prevent us leaving.
There seems to be this perception that after two years of negotiation, some of it probably quite hard and acrimonious, we can tell the EU that we didn't really mean it and carry on as before, I think they might be disappointed.
Mr. Llama, those survival type mods are precisely the type of thing that would interest me (I'm not interested in most of them, frankly). I'm not sure whether they'd be permitted, or if some fiddling would be needed with the interface so there's no new custom assets.
Sounds like it won't allow you to use mods like Requiem, think I will stay on the PC
Indeed, Mr Indigo, the PC is the best gaming platform yet devised by man and in terms of flexibility and performance knocks all the others into a cocked hat. However, Mr. Dancer, for reasons that I still do not understand, persists with his attachment to a console.

You stick to your guns Philip and put Liam Fox in his place, you'll be a good bulwark against our unelected Prime Minister and some of her more batshit crazy appointments, David Davis & Stewart Jackson at the Brexit Department!
I can see why Dave was considering making Hammond Chancellor if Remain had won.
You really don't like Theresa May, do you?
When Patrick O'Flynn and Arron Banks have been tweeting that the Tory conference was like UKIP's or enacting UKIP's manifesto then I'm not best pleased,
Coupled with her plans to effectively deport from Doctors she's a pretty shitty person in my eyes.
What plan to "deport foreign Doctors"?
You shouldn't believe everything you read in the Guardian!
And what's wrong with having time limits on work permits?
Or is the US the sink of depravity too?
I'm waiting for the 3-5% speech bounce, the kind which makes seats 50-100 in Con targets look obtainable - the anti-May spin will be a sight to behold....
It will be interesting to see if it registers- after Labour saw nothing despite "having the best conference" (sic) and May's "subdued speech which did not have much substance" (OGH).
Although it got good coverage in the anticipated papers I'm not sure much attention is paid - what matters is the delegates went away with a spring in their step.
You're right of course, but for me it was the solid hour of good coverage on the BBC that suggests (and of course affects how) this is going to resonate. News at Ten followed by Newsnight.
I've never seen (b. 1987) such unwavering support from the BBC for a Tory leader.

Clearly we can't unilaterally guarantee ILTR to all existing EU residents here before a reciprocal agreement with the rEU. We'd be taken to the cleaners especially by the Spanish. The reality is EU citizens already here are a bargaining chip. We shouldn't be where we are but we are.
No, Marine Le Pen did not endorse Theresa May's speech on Twitter with a handclap emoji
People have claimed that the president of France’s National Front applauded May’s comment “if you believe you are a citizen of the world, you are a citizen of nowhere” on Twitter, but it was not her account

I'm glad people have begun to recognise that. I remember a few pretty ill tempered arguments when Hammond and May said early on any agreement would have to be reciprocal and not unilateral.
I'm happy for EU migrants to stay, but only on the basis of UK migrants in the EU having the same status. Residency extension might be the best solution, but I'm not sure the Spanish will be happy with the idea of getting 100,000 oldies to look after.

The purge will come as a surprise to many after the terrorist group deliberately posted pictures of kittens on social media in a bid to attract new breed of young fighters.
A UN report in 2014 showed thousands of jihadists had flocked to Iraq and Syria after seeing pictures of cats posed alongside AK-47s and in the arms of masked terrorists. 15,000 fighters from 80 countries joined the fight after seeing their posts on social media.

TSE being hammered again I see for having a mind of his own.
Better that than the sheep that simply slavishly support the Tory administration of the day – despite its lurch under May to a statist/anti-austerity/anti-free market/eurosceptic position that they once vehemently opposed...
In 2002, Labour met in Blackpool, the master of all it surveyed. Tensions over the impending fracas in Iraq had started to build, but aside from that, there was little doubt that the party had finally established itself as the natural party of government. Former US president made a pop star-like appearance (“Bill Clinton, Arkansas CLP,” he announced to an audience of swooning delegates – and that was just the men), Kevin Spacey in tow.
Somebody else that doesnt know the difference between race and nationality, there seems to be a lot of it around.
In most other countries it seems to be completely uncontroversial to prefer you own citizens for jobs before immigrants, those well known fascist states Obama's USA and Trudeau's Canada certainly do.

TSE seems rather bitter about Theresa this morning.
No change there then.....Maybe the press coverage of May's speech was not to his liking?
It looked like he actually compared TM to IDS at one point?
Tells you all you need to know about his judgment of Tory Leaders.
Let's face it May is a lower middle class grammar school girl who got into Oxford.....reminds me of another PM....
One suspects he would be happier if Clegg, or if he was still in parliament Sir Daniel, had jumped ship and become the Tory leader
Nonsense.
Really ? Your views seem to chime much more closely with their than with Mrs May, I would have thought you would have been delighted if they had joined the Tories and run for the leadership.

She ground his idol into dust
And hurt the feelings of his other public school posh boy crush....when she said mean things to him (allegedly)
You're obsessed with public schoolboys. Are you a member of The Socialist Workers' Party?
And you are obsessed by grammar schoolboys...
Grammar shcool Girl (who got into Oxford....)
See, grammar schools don't help kids, they end up in universities that are complete dumps
Cameron and Osborne went to a "complete dump"?
You didn't apply, by any chance did you?
Nah. In my day you could only apply to either Oxford or Cambridge, not both, so I applied to the best university in the world, Cambridge.
Applied. Bet you ended up in Durham.
When I was doing A-levels Durham required you to actually work all year to get there. Those who got into Oxford / Cambridge sat the entrance exam, passed the interview and then relaxed with their 2E's offer. Those trying to get into Durham had to continue working to get the expected results.
Given that I didn't bother to take either option and just went for King's College, Durham - following on from my Father I'm hardly one to talk.
Still trying to work out her message re fracking and Type 3 diesels.
Having spoken to an investor in one of the ROSCOs, it's seemingly common practice to introduce new rolling stock to the SE of England, and then ship the replaced crap oop north.
As a northerner, I was a bit taken aback by how brazenly this was stated, and apparently implemented.

There are some coach companies that do the same. It's remarkable how many coaches I see on the roads that were formally King's Ferry (daily commute by coach from Medway to London).
Arizona - Clinton 44 .. Trump 42 Rhode Island - Clinton 52 .. Trump 32
Emerson College - Via Political Polls Numbers Twitter.
That Arizona poll looks good for Clinton.
The AZ poll will scare Trump.
Texas might be worth a longshot wager.
I was thinking that as well. The Hispanic population will very much be hyped to go out and vote for Clinton, and I can't see Trumps values chiming with the educated sectors in that state as much.
Might be worth her putting a few resources there, just for the extra humiliation value if Trump loses it

It will be interesting to see if it registers- after Labour saw nothing despite "having the best conference" (sic) and May's "subdued speech which did not have much substance" (OGH).
Although it got good coverage in the anticipated papers I'm not sure much attention is paid - what matters is the delegates went away with a spring in their step.

One of the reasons I'm against the foreign workers register is it would have possibly discouraged accountancy firms from taking on people like my dad when he arrived from Africa, though maybe not him specifically because he was a British citizen. If people arrive here legally then companies that hire them shouldn't be penalised in any way.
Additionally the idea if sending back highly skilled people to meet migration quotas is awful.
I'm very much in favour of a simple three tier global system based on income and length of a person's stay.
Tier 1 - £40k minimum income. 3 year work permit, additional £3k per dependent. Can be renewed twice before requiring the person to take up citizenship. No benefit rights.
Tier 2 - £20k minimum income. 6 month work permit, can apply while in the UK, can move to a tier 1 visa if conditions for it are met within the 6 months. No dependent rights. No welfare rights. Cannot be renewed.
Tier 3 - no minimum income. Seasonal work permit, cannot move to other tier visas while in the UK. No dependent rights. No welfare rights. Renewable once per year.
Student - money paid up front for the course, length timed to match the course. No dependent rights. No welfare rights. Can move to tier 1/2 visa at the end of the course as long as conditions are met.
That would be a fair and uncomplicated overseas worker programme. One which no one could complain about, we'd still be able to bring in the very best. Seasonal workers would still be able to come and working holiday types could come easily too with the tier 2 visa.
Still trying to work out her message re fracking and Type 3 diesels.
Having spoken to an investor in one of the ROSCOs, it's seemingly common practice to introduce new rolling stock to the SE of England, and then ship the replaced crap oop north.
As a northerner, I was a bit taken aback by how brazenly this was stated, and apparently implemented.
Because train traffic in SE England is orders of magnitude greater than anywhere else?

That's been true with the 319s going to Northern. You can spin it the other way though because the SE of England had to put up with slam door mark 1 stock for a long time. So if you average the age of rolling stock over a long enough period it all evens itself out.

You are a bloody lawyer, the son of a successful medicus and no more working class than my cat is a tiger. No wonder your aunt once labelled you as a wicked child.
All the signs have been in my thread headers, with, inter alia, their erudition, Latin, and vast knowledge of history, oh and epic amounts of modesty.

It's like saying that when the Arts Council gives me money it's Theresa herself making the decision...
Paraphrasing: We'd like to guarantee the rights of EU citizens living in Britain; it's intrinsically linked to securing the rights of British citizens living in the EU. We are sure that it will be very easy to deal with if the EU is prepared to approach things sensibly and constructively.

We have to remember there are a significant number of people that will do anything to get BrExit to fail, one way to do that is to drive the government into giving away negotiating cards through political necessity, and then pointing and laughing when the negotiation blows up.
This is stupid of course because after A50 is activated, we are leaving, all f*cking up the negotiation does is ensure we leave with a bad deal, or direct to WTO terms, it won't prevent us leaving.
There seems to be this perception that after two years of negotiation, some of it probably quite hard and acrimonious, we can tell the EU that we didn't really mean it and carry on as before, I think they might be disappointed.
Coffee sounds great. I'll be there on Thursday evening for the reception.
Does she want Brexit to fail?
Edit: I thought she was wrong then and said so, and think the govt's stance now is the right one.

Mr. Indigo, there's a clear hierarchy with PC top of the tree, Xbox One with quite a lot, and PS4 with some but nothing too fancy. Still a positive for Xbox One in the console war, of course.
The only mods I'm especially interested in, along with more hairstyles (which seems off the agenda) are survival type thingummyjigs which *may* be possible. I'll see if they come through.
Mind you, there's Tomb Raider next week, I still want XCOM 2 and I don't have bags of time/money, so I'll employ a Theresa May-like approach of masterly inactivity to see whether the PS4 mods look tempting before deciding whether to buy.

Labour doing very well in West Midlands, OK in London and SE, but down elsewhere. The vagaries of local elections make the significance of individual results obscure, but the overall averages are a bit more interesting.
As an aside, poor Paris.
Though if you wanted to see more books (some of them mine), the Chelsea Book Fair a couple of weeks later is the place to be.

No, Marine Le Pen did not endorse Theresa May's speech on Twitter with a handclap emoji
People have claimed that the president of France’s National Front applauded May’s comment “if you believe you are a citizen of the world, you are a citizen of nowhere” on Twitter, but it was not her account

I'm happy for EU migrants to stay, but only on the basis of UK migrants in the EU having the same status. Residency extension might be the best solution, but I'm not sure the Spanish will be happy with the idea of getting 100,000 oldies to look after.
It appears lefty protests can be effective.

The purge will come as a surprise to many after the terrorist group deliberately posted pictures of kittens on social media in a bid to attract new breed of young fighters.
A UN report in 2014 showed thousands of jihadists had flocked to Iraq and Syria after seeing pictures of cats posed alongside AK-47s and in the arms of masked terrorists. 15,000 fighters from 80 countries joined the fight after seeing their posts on social media.

Let's face it May is a lower middle class grammar school girl who got into Oxford.....reminds me of another PM....
Better that than the sheep that simply slavishly support the Tory administration of the day – despite its lurch under May to a statist/anti-austerity/anti-free market/eurosceptic position that they once vehemently opposed...

In 2002, Labour met in Blackpool, the master of all it surveyed. Tensions over the impending fracas in Iraq had started to build, but aside from that, there was little doubt that the party had finally established itself as the natural party of government. Former US president made a pop star-like appearance (“Bill Clinton, Arkansas CLP,” he announced to an audience of swooning delegates – and that was just the men), Kevin Spacey in tow.
In most other countries it seems to be completely uncontroversial to prefer you own citizens for jobs before immigrants, those well known fascist states Obama's USA and Trudeau's Canada certainly do.
Given that I didn't bother to take either option and just went for King's College, Durham - following on from my Father I'm hardly one to talk.

To be fair, if she's looking like the end of a diesel engine then it's an improvement on what she looks like in her profile picture.

Emerson are 538 "B" rated so should not be discounted lightly.
Might be worth her putting a few resources there, just for the extra humiliation value if Trump loses it
The timing of this comment risks looking in very poor taste but I laid him as UKIP laid only last night as I felt his odds-on price was way too short.
Let's be honest, that's better than a pacer.

Additionally the idea if sending back highly skilled people to meet migration quotas is awful.
I'm very much in favour of a simple three tier global system based on income and length of a person's stay.
Tier 1 - £40k minimum income. 3 year work permit, additional £3k per dependent. Can be renewed twice before requiring the person to take up citizenship. No benefit rights.
Tier 2 - £20k minimum income. 6 month work permit, can apply while in the UK, can move to a tier 1 visa if conditions for it are met within the 6 months. No dependent rights. No welfare rights. Cannot be renewed.
Tier 3 - no minimum income. Seasonal work permit, cannot move to other tier visas while in the UK. No dependent rights. No welfare rights. Renewable once per year.
Student - money paid up front for the course, length timed to match the course. No dependent rights. No welfare rights. Can move to tier 1/2 visa at the end of the course as long as conditions are met.
That would be a fair and uncomplicated overseas worker programme. One which no one could complain about, we'd still be able to bring in the very best. Seasonal workers would still be able to come and working holiday types could come easily too with the tier 2 visa.
