Disruption

Uber are a classic disruption business, they're not making any money as yet.

Normal taxis cannot compete with their low prices. When they have finally put normal cabs/taxis out of business they will have a monopoly, that's when the prices will go up and they will start to generate some real revenue. They're playing the long game.

Re: Be carful what you ask for.

The UK, meanwhile, would be "largely excluded from future developments in EU policy and practice".

Oh how terrible that will be, what will we do? how will we cope? The world will come to an end. There are countries that cope very well outside the EU you know. We're Great Britain for goodness sake. Stop moaning.

If this laptop is so portable, where's the keyboard, huh? HUH?

Yeah, they conned us when they started making laptops, you try using the coffee cup holder now, its impossible, they removed the hole in the middle, spilled my coffee on the keyboard many times and had to buy a new one ;-)

Re: 'civil rights violations'

Who gives a fuck what the EU are doing? We are leaving in a couple of years anyway. All they do is take our money and expect us to be grateful when a little of that comes back.

Re: Brought to you...

You should know that it was the UK that helped to create those standards and they will be set in UK law when we leave the EU. Stop being so cynical.

Re: fine with it.

The reason why young black youths are stopped more often is because in certain parts of town they are the ones most likely to be carrying knives. It has nothing to do with racism. This has been proved time and time again but most PC loving peeps chose to ignore it.

Its all part of inner city gang culture. Black gangs fighting other black gangs. You can go on and on about how unfair it is that black youths are stopped and searched in these areas or you can admit that this is where its mostly happening and agree that something needs to be done about it.

I say this knowing full well that it is young black people in these communities who are suffering as knife wielding gangs roam the streets with impunity. Whether these youths are black, white, asian or whatever this situation cannot be allowed to continue.

Young people are dying more or less everyday because of knife crime and it has to stop. White youths are also stopped and searched but you don't get to hear of that because it doesn't fit the media's PC narrative.

Re: fine with it.

Hey Mr PC! Stop being a drama queen, if you were in trouble I bet you would be the first on the phone calling the police, after helping you and getting your arse out of trouble they would be great then, wouldn't they?

Its too easy to paint all police as racists, most are doing a great job under immense pressure. Yes some are racist but no more than in the rest of society.

Re: What's the problem.

You lot make me laugh.

If you know you haven't done anything wrong what is your problem with this? If there are people in our country who should not be here or up to no good, I want them caught. Stop moaning about your rights, if you are a good person the police are not interested in you.

I will agree that any info the police capture should be instantly deleted if you are found to be not guilty of any crime.
