Do they still put wire taps on? I thought they just pull it off the network whoever they want to bug.
Why do you think the FBI are 100% sure he wasn't wiretapped?
I'm guessing that it's a careful use of language. A mate of mine used to work in security for one of the big mobile networks here. A whole floor of the building he looked after was only accessible to MOD staff.
A builder has been jailed for two years after making more than £1million over the course of a decade by pretending to have a PhD to become chairman of two NHS Trusts.
There is hope for Paul Nuttall of getting a cushy public servant gig after all...
On a serious note, why the f##k aren't people checking at interview stage. It takes one phone call to the university (well in this case, 3, as he claimed all sorts).
I doubt it's because they're lazy. There was one case where the CEO of a health board gave as his reference on his application for the post the head of sales to the NHS at a pharmaceutical company. What brought him down was merely the fact that he forgot to say he was living with her at the time. No scandal about her role in charge of selling stuff to a public agency and her simultaneous appearance as a reference on someone's application to a post in which he'd buy it from her.
Probably a naïve question on Corbyn's tax return but if he claims his LOTO salary (which is perfectly obviously a salary) as a pension or benefit, how does that affect the NI position? Surely the figures wouldn't come out right?

Why would you bother when it's not your money that's being spent?

Wire tap is such a wonderful expression - like wireless
"The earliest wiretaps were extra wires —physically inserted to the line between the switchboard and the subscriber— that carried the signal to a pair of earphones and a recorder. Later on wiretaps were installed at the central office on the frames that held the incoming wires.”[50]

The court's reasoning looks a bit circular. He has deprived properly qualified people is the gist of it, yet he seems to have proved the qualifications do not matter anyway.

I think he is classed as a pensioner and therefore not paying NI.

Apart from Employers NIC which will be in the surcharge part [2%], he will be above the Upper limit in so far as his own NIC is concerned.

I guess the scrutiny was a bit much.
Maybe don't try silly stunts in the first place? At best you mildly embarrass your opponent, at worst you look like a fool, and most often you excite a bunch of people who were already going to vote for you.

He seems to have done a perfectly job in the posts he obtained; I would have gone with a caution for him and suspended sentences for the numpties who gave him the jobs without checking.
It shows what an utter load of b******t many management jobs are, and that many people from the university of life could do them as well as the highly-paid individuals who are appointed. Some builders are very good at dealing with people; anyone running their own business has to be reasonable at it.
Imagine trying to become a brain surgeon, quantum chemist or cosmologist without having the right experience and qualifications.
The people Jahadi Jez's is blaming for his botched tax return stunt seems to be growing...we can now include media barons.
Again it is stonking PR. Making a total tit of oneself then continuing to draw attention to it.
As I keep saying politics is like football. It's the winning that really matters!
If Corbyn was a footballer, I wonder who he'll be most like?
How is that labour ground game going?
Pardon?
You were going on and on about it before May 2015.
I don't think I was - I was very cautious actually - think you are confusing me with someone else? But hey-ho I might have said something in bluster!
Labour's ground game is irrelevant now. Indeed, probably counter-productive. The more doors they knock on then the more conversations about how crap Corbyn is they will partake in and indeed probably remind people why they need to come out and vote Tory or LibDem.

If any Momentum snowflake types actually get off Twitter for long enough to go canvassing, one look at them will send most swing voters running for the Tories.

Local BBC news in the south west leading on UKIP MEP William Dartmouth who was trying to make £100k per annum from a wind farm - despite a) lying about it and b) it being against UKIP policy.

I'm a tad embittered now that none of you responded, Yes, of course, the brother is named Jerusalem, and yes of course I made it up. Still embittered mind you
Corbyn as a footballer...So we are looking for a slow old car horse, who is thick as shit, no good outside of London, joke on the international stage, multiple wives and dodgy claims on their tax return...

Mr. Mark/Mr. Omnium, you're pitching things too high. Puns based on 1980s pop lyrics, or possible double entendres about the aerodynamic properties of F1 cars are the way to go.
French politics: Baroin is down to 13 on Ladbrokes, but 36 on Betfair. That's quite the margin of difference.
What time are the Frenchmen having their tete-a-tete-a-tete tomorrow?
Out to 60 now on Betfair. That is a ludicrous price, considering the idea of the meeting tomorrow was for Sarko to try and persuade Fillon to withdraw and choose his own replacement.
Not saying Baroin WILL replace him, but the over-reaction to the Party announcing they have no plan B is ridiculous.
Not really in a position to do much. Only marginally green on Fillon/Le Pen and Juppe/Baroin are too long to lay. Don't want to lay Macron any more (odds will tumble if he reaches the final two, which seems likely).
Is this more fake news? Can't imagine a US citizen being denied entry!
US citizens perhaps not but to my certain knowledge Procter and Gamble employ lots of people from the banned countries in their Middle Eastern offices. One thing you can say for P&G they are completely nationality blind. Many times the product manager will be anything from Palestinian to Iraqi and his underlings might be American. They run a genuine meritocracy that pays no lip service to nationality or age.
This will really screw them up and cause much embarrassment

Yeah, but the article states his travel privileges are being reviewed. Unless the privileges of US citizens are being reviewed I can't see how this is true.
They didn't really have much choice did they? They could not force him to stand down and they could not put another candidate forward because that would have split the Party vote. So the only option left is to give him their support. Otherwise the Party would have got the blame for not supporting him if and when he loses and they need Fillon to totally own the defeat.
