Why is the Hancock story suddenly breaking today? Seems as if some people were gunning for him over the last month vie leaks to the press.
Just as well 24 rolling news wan't around during the First World War, when Ministers and Admirals were known to be spending time with other men's wives.
Adds "the Defense Department and Intelligence Community have a lot of work to do before we can actually understand whether these aerial threats present a serious national security concern.”
Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Vice Chairman Marco Rubio (R-FL) released a statement on the unclassified report on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) issued by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI).
“For years, the men and women we trust to defend our country reported encounters with unidentified aircraft that had superior capabilities, and for years their concerns were often ignored and ridiculed,” Rubio said. “This report is an important first step in cataloging these incidents, but it is just a first step. The Defense Department and Intelligence Community have a lot of work to do before we can actually understand whether these aerial threats present a serious national security concern.”
This is serious, I dont think the politically obsessed get how serious it is, because normal peoples lives were badly disrupted by the rules Hancock himself ignored.
He will be gone before Batley and Spen.
Yes. My family, which is marginally pro-Brexit, pro-Boris - with lots of exceptions, from Remoaners to Corbynism - is universal in its condemnation of Hancock. All angry. He has to go. That's it.
Two brothers who launched a bitcoin trading business from their bedroom and amassed $3.6 billion in investments have vanished, increasing their clients’ fears about their money.
Raees and Ameer Cajee, 21 and 17 respectively, have not been heard from since April when their platform shut down and they told clients it had been hacked and funds stolen. The brothers are alleged to have urged Africrypt’s investors not to contact the authorities as that “would only delay” efforts to recover the money.
According to reports, police are investigating what could be one of the biggest crypto thefts in history.
In the weeks before the disappearance, the brothers sold assets including a Lamborghini Huracan, and gave up their permanent suite at one of South Africa’s most expensive hotels and their rented beachside apartment near Durban, lawyers for the investors say.
The company’s tech staff were allegedly unable to access back-end systems a week before the claimed security breach, Darren Hanekom, a lawyer in Cape Town acting for some investors, told Bloomberg.
Africrypt’s pooled funds were transferred from its bank accounts and client wallets and put through bitcoin “tumblers and mixers” in an effort to make them untraceable, he claimed. “We were immediately suspicious as the announcement implored investors not to take legal action,” he said. In a letter to their clients dated April 13, Ameer Cajees is claimed to have written that it was “unknown to us the extent of personal client information breached during the attack”.
According to lawyers, he added that the brothers were attempting to retrieve “stolen funds and compromised information”. The apparent disappearance of the Cajees coincided with a record high in bitcoin’s value, following an announcement by Elon Musk that Tesla, his electric car maker, would start accepting the currency. Since then, its value has been hit by China’s crackdown on digital currencies and Musk reversing his decision.
I am going to have a wild stab at this and speculate that your client base when you operate what seems to be a money laundering scheme for a money laundering currency probably don’t use the likes of me to recover money that they believe that they are owed.
I suspect that their methods may not even be fully ECHR compliant.
I suspect they now have new identities and are sat in somewhere like Dubai....
And Bahrain. And Qatar. Possibly at the same time.

Anyone watching Ch4 News would bet the house on Hancock going. Probably tonight. It's a firing squad
The problem is *if* Johnson has a similar skeleton in a similarly socially undistanced cupboard, and should it come to light, he would surely be obliged to go too. And Johnson being Johnson, that is not beyond the realms of probability.
Can I hear the sound of distant violins?
I'd be surprised is Boris hasn't been cheating on Carrie.
I know someone who cheated on the day of his wedding with the brides best female...friend... nothing is impossible..
I know the diametric opposite. A bride who fucked the best man on the wedding day
The human comedy is nothing if not diverse and egalitarian
The moral of the story: Don't ask Leon to be your Best Man.
lol, but no
I have fucked a couple of bridesmaids on the wedding day, but as an usher. Isn't that what ushers and bridesmaids are meant to do? It's like an open goal
Memorably, I once sniffed coke off the bonnet of the Wedding Bentley, with a bridesmaid, that I then merrily tupped

I’ve waited all day for a scan that may now happen tomorrow. Bit frustrating but I feel much better. Got an exciting injection in the stomach to look forward to at 11. Breaks the tedium, I suppose.

Now that’s what I call boasting. A bad influence on Leon. Ha.
Niall Paterson @skynewsniall · 3h I got to hug and kiss my mum and dad last week for the first time in almost a year. Matt Hancock was one of those who told me what I could and could not do; he apparently broke the rules that he told me (literally, given my job, to my face on occasion) I had to follow.
Who has been unable to see their parents in the last several months? Unless they live abroad?

Yes, I can safely say there has been no Bad Influence, apart from one guy I had a bromance with in the late 1980s, when we just egged each other on, in a folie a deux. We were Bonnie and Clyde but actually two guys who should've known better
I am cordially loathed by lots of wives and mothers, as the guy who might lead their sons and husbands to an alt.life, and, frankly, fair enough

In my younger days, I worked in F&B at a golf club that did a lot of weddings. The two highlights from attending a couple of hundred weddings were:
1. The group of, err, travellers, who booked a room for 100 people but 1,000 turned up, that finished with the bar ransacked, two other events disrupted and the staff locking themselves in the cellar, as the police called us back to say they were going to be a while as they were calling in reinforcements. Six riot vans turned up to disperse the crowd.
2. The one where the husband found out about his wife shagging the best man. The groom had put an envelope on each table, with a note saying do not open until told. He stood up to make his speech, asked everyone to open the envelopes which contained photos of the wife and best man in flagrante, he thanked her father for the £25,000 that the day had cost him, and invited his family and friends to join him in leaving the venue. Which they did.

Well there are other aspects that make his dalliances more relevant, but it is worth remembering that when people hark back to a greater age of politicians it may or may not be true, but it certainly wasn't whiter than white (execpt demographically I guess - bar a few outliers), and nor were they.

Glad you are still here, old PB pal
The scan will tell but about 3 years ago now I suddenly got blood clots in both my lungs. It’s a bit dangerous because if bits of them break off and get to your heart or brain the result can be considerably disappointing.
This seems the same. We never found where the clots came from the last time. No obvious DVT or anything like it. Basically I get put on blood thinners till they dissolve.
Some speculation that a low grade infection might cause it but the mechanics are beyond me. I have a feeling these blood thinners are going to be permanent from here on.

Was a really wierd one, as the bride was in tears, her father angry, and about 50 guests remained who had hotels and taxis booked, and just wanted to get pissed. I think the bridal party left quite quickly, but the rest of the guests wanted a party!

I am certain there are many people like him and his wife, who have been terrified into a kind of voluntary quarantine that just goes on and on.
I have decided to be more Dura Ace. Enough of this shit. Life must go on. I am double jabbed. I don't care any more
I’ve waited all day for a scan that may now happen tomorrow. Bit frustrating but I feel much better. Got an exciting injection in the stomach to look forward to at 11. Breaks the tedium, I suppose.

When you said "blood clot" what did they mean?! Where?
Sorry to pry, just asking for a male friend in later middle age who drinks too much. He'll be very grateful for any info
Glad you are still here, old PB pal
The scan will tell but about 3 years ago now I suddenly got blood clots in both my lungs. It’s a bit dangerous because if bits of them break off and get to your heart or brain the result can be considerably disappointing.
This seems the same. We never found where the clots came from the last time. No obvious DVT or anything like it. Basically I get put on blood thinners till they dissolve.
Some speculation that a low grade infection might cause it but the mechanics are beyond me. I have a feeling these blood thinners are going to be permanent from here on.
Thrombophilia testing? The opposite of haemophilia and much more common.
Niall Paterson @skynewsniall · 3h I got to hug and kiss my mum and dad last week for the first time in almost a year. Matt Hancock was one of those who told me what I could and could not do; he apparently broke the rules that he told me (literally, given my job, to my face on occasion) I had to follow.
Who has been unable to see their parents in the last several months? Unless they live abroad?
Me!
Tho it depends what you mean by "seen". I have sat on a long outdoor bench a 3m distance from my dear old Pa. I haven't hugged him or interacted normally since Xmas 2019
Does that count?
He is very old and his younger wife is recovering from cancer so they are hyper-paranoid about normal socialising

Blood tests suggest some “sticky “ factor was slightly elevated but not hugely so. Both times I had a few days earlier possibly overdone it in the gym. That’s my suspicion.
My take on B and S. The strategic object of each of the parties was: Lab - hold, Con - gain, Lib Dem - save deposit and increase capacity in Spen, Galloway- disrupt Labour campaign. I reckon all win except Labour.
Anyone watching Ch4 News would bet the house on Hancock going. Probably tonight. It's a firing squad
The problem is *if* Johnson has a similar skeleton in a similarly socially undistanced cupboard, and should it come to light, he would surely be obliged to go too. And Johnson being Johnson, that is not beyond the realms of probability.
Can I hear the sound of distant violins?
I'd be surprised is Boris hasn't been cheating on Carrie.
I know someone who cheated on the day of his wedding with the brides best female...friend... nothing is impossible..
I know the diametric opposite. A bride who fucked the best man on the wedding day
The human comedy is nothing if not diverse and egalitarian
In my younger days, I worked in F&B at a golf club that did a lot of weddings. The two highlights from attending a couple of hundred weddings were:
1. The group of, err, travellers, who booked a room for 100 people but 1,000 turned up, that finished with the bar ransacked, two other events disrupted and the staff locking themselves in the cellar, as the police called us back to say they were going to be a while as they were calling in reinforcements. Six riot vans turned up to disperse the crowd.
2. The one where the husband found out about his wife shagging the best man. The groom had put an envelope on each table, with a note saying do not open until told. He stood up to make his speech, asked everyone to open the envelopes which contained photos of the wife and best man in flagrante, he thanked her father for the £25,000 that the day had cost him, and invited his family and friends to join him in leaving the venue. Which they did.
The second sounds like a dramatic way of doing it, but did this not mean that they where legally marred, would it not have been, easier/safer to revel before? the ceremony, otherwise was he not liable to lose half of evthing he owns?
or can the mirage be annulled in such circumstances?

The ship’s insurers have basically said to the Egyptians that they can keep the damn boat, because it’s not worth a fraction of what they’re trying to claim as damages.
The government will ask the Parole Board to look again at its decision to release a double child killer who was the first murderer to be convicted using DNA evidence.
Who has been in an open prison for some years.
A well known case here.
I read Joseph Wambaugh's "The Blooding" and from that book I formed the opinion (like Lord Lane) that this animal should never see the light of day again. However after 33 years at the age of just 61, he is on his way to his liberty. No freedom for Dawn and Lynda, so far as I can see.

It would have been annulled. The groom wanted to go through with the day, purely because her father was paying for it.
The ship’s insurers have basically said to the Egyptians that they can keep the damn boat, because it’s not worth a fraction of what they’re trying to claim as damages.
That covers the excess but it still leaves the rest of the money to be found - and that money will be coming from everyone including the people with containers on the ship.
International Maritime law is everyone's responsible and will pay their bit.

Depends who has the money - if she has money and he was poor he could get half of what she owned.
Three people have been killed and several wounded in a stabbing attack in the southern German town of Würzburg, Bavarian authorities said on Friday afternoon, adding that police had stopped the suspected perpetrator with a shot to the leg.
The suspected attacker is believed to be a 24-year-old Somali man who has lived in Würzburg since 2015, Bavarian interior minister Joachim Herrmann said in a statement.
“Some UAP appeared to remain stationary in winds aloft, move against the wind, maneuver abruptly, or move at considerable speed, w/out discernable means of propulsion. In a small number of cases, military aircraft systems processed RF energy associated w/ UAP sightings.”
“Some UAP appeared to remain stationary in winds aloft, move against the wind, maneuver abruptly, or move at considerable speed, w/out discernable means of propulsion. In a small number of cases, military aircraft systems processed RF energy associated w/ UAP sightings.”
"We currenly lack data to indicate any UAP are part of a foreign collection program or indicative of a major technological advancement by a potential adversary"

Our analysis of the data supports the construct that if and when individual UAP incidents are resolved they will fall into one of five potential explanatory categories: airborne clutter, natural atmospheric phenomena, USG or U.S. industry developmental programs, foreign adversary systems, and a catchall “other” bin.

Yes, maritime law is a little weird in that context.
The problem is that, in the minds of the insurers of “Ever Given”, all the ships that were delayed eventually got through, and the Egyptian government which runs the canal haven’t actually lost any money.
There were a lot of delays to ships sailing through the canal, but those losses didn’t accrue to the Egyptians, who seem to be making up a number and doubling it. Their actual losses are limited to the canal fees from a few ships that diverted around Africa.

Most of the UAP reported probably do represent physical objects given that a majority of UAP were registered across multiple sensors, to include radar, infrared, electro-optical, weapon seekers, and visual observation.

Number 2 is a day that I suspect ever guest remembers for good and bad.
Was a really wierd one, as the bride was in tears, her father angry, and about 50 guests remained who had hotels and taxis booked, and just wanted to get pissed. I think the bridal party left quite quickly, but the rest of the guests wanted a party!
Why would the groom go through with the wedding though?

That’s the only reason I can think of - Paterson hasn’t been double jabbed and therefore he wasn’t seeing his parents.

That's my thoughts, if you what the big dramatic moment, hand out the envelops at the church and then ask them to open them, as the bride is at the back door about to walk up. or something like that.
Her Dad will have still paid for everything by that point. and saves a lot of hustle afterwards
So: A) they are a real physical phenomena there’s no evidence they’re a foreign adversary C) in most cases the observations were multi sensory, theres an undisclosed number of other incidents without formal reporting due to the “sociocultural stigma” D) in at least 18 cases they showed “unusual” flight characteristics.
More money and research needed and a streamlined and transparent reporting process:
“The UAPTF intends to focus additional analysis on the small number of cases where a UAP appeared to display unusual flight characteristics or signature management… we may require additional scientific knowledge to successfully collect on, analyze and characterize some of them”.
"Other: Although most of the UAP described in our dataset probably remain unidentified due to limited data or challenges to collection processing or analysis, we may require additional scientific knowledge to successfully collect on, analyze and characterize some of them. We would group such objects in this category pending scientific advances that allowed us to better understand them.

Because the bride’s father was paying for it.
Seems a bit mean. You would have expected him to go and see the father and tell him the wedding was off and why. The story would get out anyway.
Anyone watching Ch4 News would bet the house on Hancock going. Probably tonight. It's a firing squad
The problem is *if* Johnson has a similar skeleton in a similarly socially undistanced cupboard, and should it come to light, he would surely be obliged to go too. And Johnson being Johnson, that is not beyond the realms of probability.
Can I hear the sound of distant violins?
I'd be surprised is Boris hasn't been cheating on Carrie.
I know someone who cheated on the day of his wedding with the brides best female...friend... nothing is impossible..
I know the diametric opposite. A bride who fucked the best man on the wedding day
The human comedy is nothing if not diverse and egalitarian
In my younger days, I worked in F&B at a golf club that did a lot of weddings. The two highlights from attending a couple of hundred weddings were:
1. The group of, err, travellers, who booked a room for 100 people but 1,000 turned up, that finished with the bar ransacked, two other events disrupted and the staff locking themselves in the cellar, as the police called us back to say they were going to be a while as they were calling in reinforcements. Six riot vans turned up to disperse the crowd.
2. The one where the husband found out about his wife shagging the best man. The groom had put an envelope on each table, with a note saying do not open until told. He stood up to make his speech, asked everyone to open the envelopes which contained photos of the wife and best man in flagrante, he thanked her father for the £25,000 that the day had cost him, and invited his family and friends to join him in leaving the venue. Which they did.
Number 2 is a day that I suspect ever guest remembers for good and bad.

That's my thoughts, if you what the big dramatic moment, hand out the envelops at the church and then ask them to open them, as the bride is at the back door about to walk up. or something like that.
Her Dad will have still paid for everything by that point. and saves a lot of hustle afterwards
Yeah, maybe it would have been better to do it in the church.
But if he had done it that way, the waiter at the reception wouldn’t be telling the story 25 years later...
The ship’s insurers have basically said to the Egyptians that they can keep the damn boat, because it’s not worth a fraction of what they’re trying to claim as damages.
Will be interesting if they can get consequential damages
Apparently the UAP report is a letdown. No little green men.
I thought it was interesting - most of them are classified as physical in nature
"Most of the UAP reported probably do represent physical objects given that a majority of UAP were registered across multiple sensors, to include radar, infrared, electro-optical, weapon seekers, and visual observation."
Niall Paterson @skynewsniall · 3h I got to hug and kiss my mum and dad last week for the first time in almost a year. Matt Hancock was one of those who told me what I could and could not do; he apparently broke the rules that he told me (literally, given my job, to my face on occasion) I had to follow.
Who has been unable to see their parents in the last several months? Unless they live abroad?
Me!
Tho it depends what you mean by "seen". I have sat on a long outdoor bench a 3m distance from my dear old Pa. I haven't hugged him or interacted normally since Xmas 2019
Does that count?
He is very old and his younger wife is recovering from cancer so they are hyper-paranoid about normal socialising
But you didn’t get to hug & kiss him last week? When there have been no meaningful change in the rules for a significant period of time
Er, no. Not sure of your point? But that might be me being dim. He lives 200 miles away and I worry that he will die without any of us hugging him again.
I am certain there are many people like him and his wife, who have been terrified into a kind of voluntary quarantine that just goes on and on.
I have decided to be more Dura Ace. Enough of this shit. Life must go on. I am double jabbed. I don't care any more
And the stats are with you...you are now more likely to be kicking the bucket from about every other thing out there, cancer, heart disease, accident in the home etc etc etc.
I'm in that boat too. Met a friend today. We defiantly elected to greet each other with a handshake. Felt vaguely thrilling.

Far too early to say what they are
America has by far the most advanced military in the world. If they don't what they are, then they are out of this world.
Delta has now got to Israel, No surprise there it was going to eventually
It is spreading, No surprise, as it has toped out at about 63% of population vaccinated,
Allegedly, half of all new positive tests are in people vaccinated, That's a surprise and bad is accurate.
I say allegedly, because exact numbers are not given. and it doesn't mesh with other data, so may be some hyperbaly or exaggeration but still worrying.
Do we need to panic about Israel? not yet, its still small numbers, and the vaccine probably means the cases will be less severe.
What is Israel doing? they have reimpose some restrictions and are have started vaccinating children down to 12
Asymptomatic infection among the vaccinated doesn't matter.
Doesn't matter for the vaccinated. No free rider effect for the antivaxxers though.

So: A) they are a real physical phenomena there’s no evidence they’re a foreign adversary C) in most cases the observations were multi sensory, theres an undisclosed number of other incidents without formal reporting due to the “sociocultural stigma” D) in at least 18 cases they showed “unusual” flight characteristics.
More money and research needed and a streamlined and transparent reporting process:
“The UAPTF intends to focus additional analysis on the small number of cases where a UAP appeared to display unusual flight characteristics or signature management… we may require additional scientific knowledge to successfully collect on, analyze and characterize some of them”.
So this big report just says UAP appear to be flying in an unexplained way? If we had stuck with UFO as their TLA we wouldn't have needed the report to tell us that!
Comments
What would the Daily Mail have made of that?
“For years, the men and women we trust to defend our country reported encounters with unidentified aircraft that had superior capabilities, and for years their concerns were often ignored and ridiculed,” Rubio said. “This report is an important first step in cataloging these incidents, but it is just a first step. The Defense Department and Intelligence Community have a lot of work to do before we can actually understand whether these aerial threats present a serious national security concern.”
Boris has made an error even trying to defend him
Matt Hancock has been prevented from trending on Twitter due to anti-porn filters applied to suspected pornographic terms

Why are you calling for Mr Hancock to resign, when you didn’t resign yourself?
I have fucked a couple of bridesmaids on the wedding day, but as an usher. Isn't that what ushers and bridesmaids are meant to do? It's like an open goal
Memorably, I once sniffed coke off the bonnet of the Wedding Bentley, with a bridesmaid, that I then merrily tupped
Sigh. Now I mainly think about UFOs
How are you doing?
When you said "blood clot" what did they mean?! Where?
Sorry to pry, just asking for a male friend in later middle age who drinks too much. He'll be very grateful for any info
Glad you are still here, old PB pal
Have your family been able to visit?
Stick to the story.
I am cordially loathed by lots of wives and mothers, as the guy who might lead their sons and husbands to an alt.life, and, frankly, fair enough

It’s groping a woman.
This seems the same. We never found where the clots came from the last time. No obvious DVT or anything like it. Basically I get put on blood thinners till they dissolve.
Some speculation that a low grade infection might cause it but the mechanics are beyond me. I have a feeling these blood thinners are going to be permanent from here on.
I am certain there are many people like him and his wife, who have been terrified into a kind of voluntary quarantine that just goes on and on.

Now that is news.
But it could have been worse?
Some of us on here thought you might have croaked it, TBH, the "chest pain" stuff was very ominous.

faces sack if affair turns into a ‘Barnard Castle moment’ #TomorrowsPapersToday
The second sounds like a dramatic way of doing it, but did this not mean that they where legally marred, would it not have been, easier/safer to revel before? the ceremony, otherwise was he not liable to lose half of evthing he owns?
or can the mirage be annulled in such circumstances?
Come on focus groups, do your work.
International Maritime law is everyone's responsible and will pay their bit.
The suspected attacker is believed to be a 24-year-old Somali man who has lived in Würzburg since 2015, Bavarian interior minister Joachim Herrmann said in a statement.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jun/25/dead-and-wounded-in-stabbing-attack-in-germany-wurzburg
“Some UAP appeared to remain stationary in winds aloft, move against the wind, maneuver abruptly, or move at considerable speed, w/out discernable means of propulsion. In a small number of cases, military aircraft systems processed RF energy associated w/ UAP sightings.”
The problem is that, in the minds of the insurers of “Ever Given”, all the ships that were delayed eventually got through, and the Egyptian government which runs the canal haven’t actually lost any money.
There were a lot of delays to ships sailing through the canal, but those losses didn’t accrue to the Egyptians, who seem to be making up a number and doubling it. Their actual losses are limited to the canal fees from a few ships that diverted around Africa.
But I suspect he’s made it up. Or is lying as it is also known
Her Dad will have still paid for everything by that point. and saves a lot of hustle afterwards

"Other: Although most of the UAP described in our dataset probably remain unidentified due to
limited data or challenges to collection processing or analysis, we may require additional
scientific knowledge to successfully collect on, analyze and characterize some of them. We
would group such objects in this category pending scientific advances that allowed us to better
understand them. The UAPTF intends to focus additional analysis on the small number of cases
