Registered 11 years agoCall me cynical, but the way things are going I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if the contract to 'convert' these satellites goes to a small tech startup (that just happens to belong to one of Cummings' mates) which pockets a tidy sum of public money, before the project inevitably goes tits-up and is swept under the rug and never spoken of again. -

This sums it up. I just don't think the media are being hard enough on the government. Not asking enough, or the right questions. Seem to be easily brushed aside by the, 'its too early for an enquiry/whatever wait until it's over' etc type sound bites.

A read an opinion piece today that put forward the idea that the daily briefings, for example, were politically biased - the journalists, the media the majority represented - and not science based. And therefore why?
Not enough scrutiny on the facts or the why's. -

I keep thinking the UK government must be playing some weird game of chicken and hopes the other side will flinch.
Strap, in, we're super fucked come January.
UK cabinet office minister Michael Gove said on Twitter: "I formally confirmed the UK will not extend the transition period & the moment for extension has now passed. On 1 January 2021 we will take back control and regain our political & economic independence."

That's the impression I get, it's purely the act of a fraudster but on a national level and the public, well the supporters, still keep falling for it even when they visibly see themselves being swindled.
