  1. Suddenly falling into a cold water can make your heart stop. It happened quite a few times. Does not matter how good a swimmer you are if you're dead the second you're in a water.

  2. I do not know any English person who voted for anyone but Khan (well, one lad voted for Binface for giggles). But my social circle is made of professionals, scientists, engineers, doctors, not of the gammon trash down the pub.

  3. Typical British incompetence happened. Bet there was some software outsourced to Sunak family business involved.

  4. Why? Distressing indeed. Laughing so much really hurts.

  5. They wrote it in the Visual freaking Basic, you cannot expect any decent practices from this kind of people.

  6. I am appaled at the very thought of agreeing with farage on anything at all, but here I am, agreeing...

  7.  @NicBark  it is not an arrogance when superiority is objective. Gammons really are the lowest of the low, it is impossible not to look down on your lot.

  8. Majority of Londoners support ULEZ.

  9. Is it a Netflix remake of Mr. Bean?

  10.  @peterheerens3093  keep in mimd that those are not the software engineers.worthy of their titles. They wrote this abomination in Visual Basic. They never used any version cintrol system. They were abaolutely irreversibly incompetent on all levels. There were code snippets submitted to this enquiry, take a look and admire their depths of ignorance.

  11. You'd be surprised. Ever heard of Sechin? Putin is anything but independent.

  12.  @KenFlem-ct1cp  not defunding police and mental health might have changed quite a bit.

  13. Firstly, an explicit pay per mile would have been fantastic.Secondly, you already are taxed per mile, with a fuel duty.

  14. So, is it a crime to be 223 miles away from home?

  15. ​ @giulianagianna I do not know a single.muslim, yet everyone I know voted for Khan.

  16.  @giulianagianna  it is only dirty when your gammon kind is around. Without gammons London is beautiful.

  17. If only they protested for a worthy cause. I have no respect for trash who protest against cleaner air.

  18. What wisdom? "Sell more oil"? It took three terms for Putin to start figuring out what is right. Yep, still wiser than pretty much any western ruler, but that's a very low bar to pass.

  19. I'm inclined to apply Hanlon's razor here - this guy looks exceptionally incompetent and dim, which might explain everything without the need to invoke any malice.

  20. A few years ago a slightly drunk Cambridge academic tried to pee in Cam, slipped and fell. Died instantly when his heart stopped of a shock from a cold water.
    2
  21.  @toms3870  no, it was winter, pretty cold, probably even sub-zero, but around mid-day, AFAIR. The thing here is the sudden cold - you won't die from shock if you expect a cold water, but if it comes as a surprise - bad luck.

  22. Londoners are happy with this result. Get rekt, gammon!

  23. Scumnak is desperate. Hopefully all the damage he did will be reversed by the next government.

  24. They were not aware that ACID exists, so it's understandable.

  25. Nobody cares about your scummy opinion, gammon.

  26. Only the most deplorable of the human waste oppose ULEZ. All the decent human beings support ULEZ absolutely.

  27. Piggy, you should have worn your tinfoil hat, yet you elected to smoke it instead. Bad piggy!

  28. ​ @injest1928 it is a morlock incoherent rambling, no need to try to get a meaning where there is none. Gammon language bears no meaning and never meant to.

  29. So, you do not like democracy. Majority of Londoners support Khan and ULEZ.

  30. This is pretty much a representative specimen of a Fujitsu "engineer".

  31.  @rybaluc  these monkeys wrote this "distributed transactional system" in Visual Basic, deliberately deciding to ignore ACID altogether. Just look up the code samples to see what their level of competence really is.

  32. ​ @harbzsquadings2277 what's wrong with ULEZ?
    1
  33.  @harbzsquadings2277  yes, please, do not get started, as you're not mentally equipped to produce any coherent argument anyway. It is an envirinmental measure that objectively work (and I personally see the results, living in an NOx hot spot). The only real problem with ULEZ is that it is too little, too late.
    1
  34.  @harbzsquadings2277  NOx readings from the air monitoring stations all over London are publically available. Go an check them out, the results are obvious and as official as it gets - just raw data with no interpretation loaded on top.
    1
  35.  @harbzsquadings2277  what TFL stats?!? Go and see the raw NOx readings from the air monitoring stations, they're available. And you're clearly out of your depth. Once again, I live in an NOx hot spot. It means, concentration here is quite a bit above the healthy level. People with asthma flee the area very soon after they moved in. And there are hundreds of hot spots like this. And it's not in Zone 1, not 2, not even 3. Motorists are the scourge of this city, and any measure that reduce their numbers is justified. Stop babbling about the "working men pockets", most of those working men never needed cars to begin with.

  36.  @harbzsquadings2277  I'm not forgetting about tradesmen, and I have zero sympathy for tradesmen who cut corners. Having an old non-compliant van is cutting corners indeed, and I hope they will be kicked out of the trade naturally. Readings are fairly consistent and well calibrated, NOx partials are very easy to detect and measure, just go and read the public stations data, historic and recent. Same goes for the particulate pollution (but it was not even a goal for ULEZ, it is specifically limited to NOx).
    1
  37.  @harbzsquadings2277  what kind of a deranged excuse is this? Cannot afford being a tradesman - don't be a tradesman. Easy. Cutting corners is never acceptable. With your logic, drug dealers are also hard working men who are being unfairly screwed up by the government. After all, they're just earning money to pay bills, amirite?
    1
  38.  @harbzsquadings2277  anyway, you get the reasoning - having to earn a living is not an excuse for doing scummy things, like dealing drugs or driving an old polluting van.
    1
  39.  @harbzsquadings2277  the same logic: if people cannot afford to.get any education, to get any useful skills, it is not scummy to deal drugs then. Right? Not being able to afford tools for a job bars you from this job, period. Find something else to do. Why should anyone make concessions for you?

  40. Do not get your news from rightwing trash rags then. In reality Khan is an efficient mayor who did a lot for London, and Londoners clearly noticed it.

  41. You're a gammon. Gammons have no right to have opinions.

  42. ​ @natashaclark1356  look, gammon, how do you even function with this single digit IQ of yours? Life must be so hard.for.your lot.

  43.  @denisburgess2966  keep proving my point about trash. Go look at the london air quality map - there's quite a few places where particulate matter concentration is far above unhealthy threshold. I recommend uneducated gammons to avoid having opinions on topics they are not mentally equipped to comprehend, which includes even relatively simple topics like air pollution.

  44.  @manctwo-wheeler9341  hilarious, how the deranged anti-ULEZ minority honestly do not realise that their brain-dead cause is actually hated by the vast majority of Londoners.

  45. Show me on a doll where did ULEZ hurt you.

  46. Incompetence should be considered a capital crime. Incompetence and stupidity caused more harm than all the deliberate malice.

  47. You're assuming they have better employees?

  48. Fujitsu is a symptom, not the root of the problem. The root of the problem is the very British tolerance to incompetence and mediocrity. Just look at those "developers" from Fujitsu, look at the code samples from Horizon that were published - they are the lowest of the low, the most pathetic kind of code monkeys in existence. Yet, companies like this keep getting government contract - for reasons that have nothing to do with the quality of their product. And even now nobody is going to really call them out for their incompetence, the entire inquiry is around detecting malice and corruption, and for the average British person it's unthinkable to actually punish people for being dumb and ignorant. Until we start doing it, nothing will change.

  49. Starmer is an utterly disgustinflg.rightwing nutter, but if he ever did one reasonable thing it is stripping the blanket winter fuel allowance. Of course short of removing the triple lock, but at least a step in the right direction.

  50. Be kind to him, you should not expect from an old man with advanced dementia to.remember where is is and what he's doing.
