Weston Super Saint

Basically every post of Shurlock's then?

I'm sure the families of the 999 people who were shot in 2020 would argue the contrary - and that's just those shot by the police and doesn't include those shot by people 'defending' themselves / their property.

Proportionate force goes out of the window when combined with adrenaline and fear as evidenced by the number of people who have been killed when they shouldn't have been. I guess that's what happens when everyone has the right to bear arms. Compare that to Japan with the polar opposite views on guns.

Isn't that the same as anyone commiting a crime in the US, given that all cops (and a large proportion of the general population) are armed?

What were all the 'armed thugs' below armed with? Bad breath? Shit dress sense? Miserable sense of humor(sic)?

Correct. However, they DO state you are allowed to drive somewhere to take exercise which would suggest 'local' isn't the same as 'neighbourhood'.

How long have they been employed, is it less than 2 years? If so, then there really is nothing they can do. Secondly, whilst Post 1 still exists, Person A is no longer doing that. They accepted the move to Post 2, so it's irrelevant whether or not Post 1 still exists as it is not their 'current' role. Post 2 would be the role that would be being made redundant, which is the one that Person A accepted. Even though there was nothing formally written regarding Person A taking Post 2, the company would merely claim 'custom and practice' and the fact that they have been carrying out the role (which would no longer be needed) for six months. Then (providing they had worked for over 2 years) it would be a redundancy situation and the appropriate consultation would need to be carried out and alternative options within the company (if any) considered.

Personally, I would say yes. However, nothing in HR is ever that black and white so you would need to refer to specific terms in the contract. You also need to consider length of service. If person A has less than 2 years service (at the end of the 6 month secondment) then they don't have a leg to stand on anyway. If its pretty much certain that there will be other work available at the end of the six months, I'd say there shouldn't be an issue. I wouldn't expect that Post 1 would be an option - unless the company is planning on getting rid of person B if they have less than 2 years service (although it's unlikely if the client doesn't want Person A!). The contract would be general terms and conditions anyway so there would be no need for a new one to be issued to Person A - it would also have a clause in there about carrying out any work to be deemed 'suitable' by the company anyway.

How are we getting on, can we declare racism extinct now?

What a lovely warming story! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-derbyshire-55560814 Sounds like the police were there waiting for people to arrive so they could fine them. I thought that fines were to be used for people once police had followed the previous three E's : https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/explainers-52106843

Oh, no he wasn't! There was absolutely no violence involved when soggy was supporting it!

I know it's the Sun, but they claim he was hit in the head with a fire extinguisher, then collapsed at the police station later on.... https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/13683669/us-capitol-police-officer-brian-sicknick-dies-riot/

Was the person that was moved a 'permanent' employee or a contractor. If contractor, then tough! If permanent employee then it's more complicated. How much time served in the company? If under two years, then tough. If over two years then there would need to be a consultation. The original role would be deemed to be no longer existing in this case as it has been filled by someone else. As long as a full consultation took place with all alternatives within the company considered - including other locations within a reasonable travelling distance as well as other roles with equal or less status and remuneration - then redundancy could well be a legitimate option. There must have been some sort of consultation previously for the person who was moved to have been moved - presumably the client request was a result of conduct or performance. I'm fairly certain that 'accepting' the move would be a legitimate reason for the employer to 'backfill' the role that was moved from - even if the alternative to accepting the role would have been dismissal on either conduct or performance basis.

There was lots of noise there and I could hear someone near the camera shouting 'they've got guns' but I couldn't hear the clear warnings that were ignored. Any idea what time during the video they were made?

Lol. Don't recall you saying the same thing when protesters marched through London in the summer. Plenty of warnings given to them way before the event took place.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-55227325 30 days later and we've managed a mere 1.3mil vaccinations. How the fuck are we going to get to 2mil per week?

Looks like the tier 2 decision has worked out well then.

Definitely nothing fishy going on here, merely an administrative error! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-55555466

If we get to the magical 2mil doses per week by the end of the 12 weeks (or even sooner), unless we can somehow manage to increase that by another 50% (for example) to 3mil per week, then there won't be any 'new' patients being vaccinated as the capacity will be used to give the 'old' patients their second dose.

Another complete fuck up around implementation! Looks like they have copied and pasted tier 4 regulations but not bothered to check if they are right or they really have no clue what they want to implement. In terms of shopping, you can only leave the house for 'essential' shopping and all 'non-essential' shops MUST close. However, non-essential shops can offer a click and collect service. So you can order a pair of slippers online and then head off to your local 'Next' to go and fetch them! How is that 'essential'? https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/949536/NationalLockdownGuidance.pdf I'm assuming the 'click and collect' bit is left in from tier 4 and they just haven't bothered to update it.

Define 'threat'.

Define 'threat'. I'd suggest a virus that has killed over 30 million people had the 'potential' to kill many more.

I've never claimed they did, have I? Does a threat need to shut down businesses or put people on furlough to still be a threat - it's a rhetorical question you fuckwit, no need to answer. The point is - which once again you've managed to miss, quite spectacularly - that there have been other 'threats' and Covid isn't the 'biggest threat' since WW2 as Soggy claimed. Guess what though, those other 'threats' had either a preventative measure or a treatment that stopped them from killing thousands of people, but left unchecked / untreated they COULD have caused as many, if not more, deaths than Covid. That's how 'threats' are defined.

A 'threat' doesn't need to kill 500+ people per day to be classified a 'threat'.
