When I started working in financial services in 2000, what shocked me was just how diverse the traders were. There were some people from rich families, some working class (I particularly remember one who had previously…
Gotta love the EU and how well it sticks up for workers' rights and economic stability.
And I bet H2O was found in 100% of colon cancers.
Because with transactions things have to match and sometimes data errors happen. Take something really simple like a bank cash transfer. Do you really think that no one ever accidentally puts in a typo in an account…

A lot of the comments here ignore the fact that Horizon membership was agreed as part of the original Brexit negotiations. The EU have been reneging on this agreement based on the rather dubious pretext that the UK…
Came across a similar idea a few years ago: emotions are our perceptions of our bodies internal state. Our subconscious responds to external events, releasing hormones and making other internal changes to our bodies.…
Germany is in recession and so is the Netherlands. Yet the UK hasn't even had one quarter of negative GDP growth recently. France is in political turmoil. Across the EU, far-right political parties are gaining real…
This applies to the real world as well. I've had a couple of times when I've been closely involved in an event that was covered in the national newspapers. Both times the stories were presented with major factual…
