Have we discussed this?
The police officer convicted of the manslaughter of Dalian Atkinson had been previously found by a police disciplinary hearing to have committed gross misconduct but was allowed to remain an officer and given a stun gun, it has been revealed.
PC Benjamin Monk was convicted of the manslaughter of Atkinson last week after firing a stun gun into him for 33 seconds, and then kicking him twice in the head after a clash in August 2016.
On Monday at Birmingham crown court a sentencing hearing was told that Monk had two criminal cautions for drunkenness and theft before he joined the police but that they had not been disclosed when he applied to be an officer.
The prosecutor, Alexandra Healy QC, told the court Monk had applied to join the police in 2001. He was cautioned for theft in 1997 while an employee at a Woolworths store. In 1999, Healy told the court, Monk was cautioned after he was found drunk. Neither was disclosed and Monk became an officer with the West Mercia force.
In 2010 Monk went through another vetting process, Healy told the court, and the criminal cautions were discovered by his bosses. Monk faced a police disciplinary hearing charged with gross misconduct, which can lead to dismissal. He was found guilty of the disciplinary charge, which amounted to “discreditable conduct”, Healy told the court.
Instead of being dismissed Monk was given a final written warning.

Well now.
A federal court on Monday dismissed the Federal Trade Commission’s antitrust complaint against Facebook, dealing a major setback for the agency’s complaint that could have resulted in Facebook divesting Instagram and WhatsApp.
Shares of Facebook rose nearly 5% on Monday following the complaint’s dismissal, sending the social media company’s market capitalization above $1 trillion for the first time.
“Although the Court does not agree with all of Facebook’s contentions here, it ultimately concurs that the agency’s Complaint is legally insufficient and must therefore be dismissed,” reads the filing from U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. “The FTC has failed to plead enough facts to plausibly establish a necessary element of all of its Section 2 claims -- namely, that Facebook has monopoly power in the market for Personal Social Networking (PSN) Services.”

It's the fault of the BBC.TheScreamingEagles said:Murray loses third set 7-5, having been 5-0 up.
If you think that's a choke wait until you see England during the knockout phase of the Euros.
Possibly.
Murray has gone off court whilst they close the roof, so they've gone over to cover the Heather Watson match on Court No.1 instead. She was winning up until that point, but as soon as they put her on the telly... tie break lost 7-3, one set all.
Take it off BBC1 and show a repeat of Miranda or something, and he'll be fine.0 -

But rapid recent increases have not yet fed through to hospitalisations - so hospitalisations will go up over next 2 wks.
Also, 20-30% of people infected will likely end up with long covid - with maybe 15% having it severely affect their daily lives

All you have to do, of course, is order your box of LFTs, type a declaration of a negative result into the NHS website using the serial number of one of them, and then display the resultant text message on your phone to fulfil the requirement. If you don't want to take the test you don't need to. There'll be no shortage of people who won't bother, and they can't be caught out for it.0 -

Dashboard data does not appear to back that up.https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/healthcare?areaType=nhsTrust&areaName=Manchester University NHS Foundation TrustBlack_Rook said:
A good point, but they're also apparently claiming that Manchester's hospitals are running at bed occupancy levels ABOVE those when they were struggling to cope with previous tsunamis of Plague cases. Why?Alistair said:
If you have rocketing cases and still a need to self isolate even if double vaxed then there is going to be staffing shortages.Black_Rook said:
Total patient numbers are about a quarter of what they were in late January. If, as is alleged, 'every constituent part of the system is desperately struggling to cope' already, then there must be something else going on besides Covid. AFAIK we've not been hearing these sorts of cries from other hotspot areas.Alistair said:
Hospitalisation admissions, occupancy and ventilator usage seem to be rising faster in Manchester now than during September.ManchesterKurt said:0 -
Quite right. It was the lairds - not the nation - that needed a bailout.Black_Rook said:
Partly true. The English Parliament played a game of carrot and stick: on the one hand, access to the colonies, debt pooling and a great big sackload of cash; on the other, trade sanctions if you don't do what we want.HYUFD said:
Scotland's Parliament only asked to join a Union with England in the first place because of money, it needed a bailout after the failure of the Darien Scheme.Black_Rook said:
It's all down to money and the fear of losing it. If Project Fear (of Being Poor) wasn't as successful as it turned out to be, then both the Leave vote in England and the Yes vote in Scotland would've won by landslides.kinabalu said:
Yes, has legs. I've always said the 'mood' of the country - England - was far more Leave than the technical result of the vote.Black_Rook said:
Theory: the C2DE Remainers mostly wanted to Leave as well, but were frightened by predictions of economic catastrophe into backing what Cameron wanted. Catastrophe failed to happen, so now they have repudiated their previous allegiance and back Boris with the zealousness of converts. Or something.kinabalu said:
Yes - and tbh I'm dubious.Andy_JS said:
It may be just a statistical anomaly. But interesting if confirmed by further research/polls.kinabalu said:
It is - and the answer to why is (I sense) of profound import. We should get working on it. Has he disappointed blue collar Leavers in some way perhaps? Was our Brexit not hard enough for them? This would explain why their Remainer equivalents are relatively more supportive.Andy_JS said:On topic, isn't it strange that C2DE Remainers are more pro-Boris than C2DE Leavers?
AIUI the Scots ruling class liked the deal; the ordinary folk weren't necessarily so enthusiastic.0 -

Leeds Hyde Park rave 'blatant' Covid rule breach.
*But if you do it while drinking Pimm's at Wimbledon, then it's absolutely fine. 🤷🏻♀️
Upon entry to the Grounds, all Ticket Holders (age 11 and over) shall be required to show certification of a (i) negative COVID-19 lateral flow test result (taken in the 48 hours prior to attending The Championships) from a UK Government-approved test provider (either via a home kit or via a test centre), with certification shown via email or text or (ii) a double COVID-19 vaccination received at least 2 weeks prior to attending the Grounds, which Ticket Holders shall be required to show (a) via the NHS App for Ticket Holders in England or (b) via the approved certification routes for Ticket Holders from Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. All other Ticket Holders will be required to undertake a COVID-19 lateral flow test and provide proof of a negative result in order to gain entry.
Now can somebody show me the entry requirements for the Hyde Park rave?1 -

But rapid recent increases have not yet fed through to hospitalisations - so hospitalisations will go up over next 2 wks.
Also, 20-30% of people infected will likely end up with long covid - with maybe 15% having it severely affect their daily lives
20-30% get Long Covid? Seriously? Where does that figure come from?
2. Her Long Covid claim looks suspiciously like something made up on the spot to frighten people3 -

It's never been claimed that the vaccinations provide 100% cover. If anyone thinks they do - and a lot of people do - then it'ds a massive failure of Government messaging. But that is a somewhat different, if indeed very worrying, matter.Daveyboy1961 said:https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-57640550

I disagree. It’s actually very good news. Man in his 60’s contracts potentially serious illness but thanks to vaccination is back at work a few days later, not in a hospital on ventilation. Even at 99% protection from getting ill from Covid that’s still a lot of people who can get it. Interesting for me is I suspect he modified his behaviour- he felt invincible after being double jabbed.

The vaccinations don't prevent you catching Covid, it will likely always be with us now like flu and the common cold, however the vaccines do minimise your risk of being hospitalised by it or dying from it3 -

His comments are telling too - "very nasty" and a "summer cold". Indicates his immune system isn't up to much generally, he'd have been hospitalised without vaccination.turbotubbs said:

Me thinks that with hospital numbers under control they are looking for a new front to keep the restrictions in place through summer and into an autumn lockdown.0
