Remember when Europe’s entire Galileo satellite system fell over last summer? No you don’t. The official stats reveal it never happened

One man's mistake, missing backups and complete reboot: The tale of Europe's Galileo satellites going dark

In short, the EU project is a classic European misadventure: a tyrannical idea with corrupt people that has turned into a bureaucratic mess in which no one wants to take the blame for problems caused by unnecessary organizational complexity.

Europe's digital identity system needs patching after can_we_trust_this function call ignored

No, no, no.

The flaw is far more fundamental than that. It is the EU project in it's entirety that is broken.

Remember the big IBM 360 mainframe rescue job? For now, Brexit has ballsed it up – big iron restorers

Correction: The EU ballsed it up.

Will someone think of the taxpayer? UK.gov needs to stop burning billions on shoddy procurement, says Reform

Junior minister says gov.UK considering facial recognition to verify age of p0rn-watchers

Re: Umm - yet another poorly thought out idea

Why would porn facial recognition need to distinguish between monkeys and people. Are monkeys banned from spanking in the UK?

You are probably of the view that gender, and the corresponding differences we see between men and women, are socially constructed.

UK networks have 'no plans' to bring roaming fees back after Brexit

Re: I'm not British

I live in Scotland.

You don't get it at all.

The UK, especially Scotland will thrive and prosper under the Union flag rather than having our identity crushed under the EU globalist jackboot.

People here want to leave under the WTO deal and who can blame them? The EU is holed below the waterline and she's going down fast.

We should not be relying on the EU at all.

The best possible option for the UK is to leave under the WTO deal.

No 'No Deal' or 'Hard Brexit' just Brexit.
