Exciting crossover opportunities with the farmers in Somerset selling cider in fuel jugs from the back of an agricultural truck.

One of the guys I work with did 4 years for, I think, manslaughter and he's a pretty decent driver. It can be difficult for people with criminal records to get a job so as long as they're competent then this could be a real route into employment for them. EDIT: My mum has decided that at 78 it's a great time to learn Welsh but now she doesn't want to say the Welsh word for fish (pysgod) because she says it's rude and irreligious not that she is religious. bessantj fucked around with this message at 11:39 on Sep 30, 2021 |

These are Tories operating the program though. The only route it will lead into is indentured servitude and exploitation of the prisoners assigned to the jobs, and enrichment of the connected private contractors hired to run the program. To be fair, you'll get the same result if Keit's Labour party were to run the show.

Well I was thinking it more for people who have come out of prison and would find it difficult to get work. I'd hate to think of the logistical gently caress ups that would happen if they used actual prisoners. Oh dear me posted:Tell her to use a k instead of a g, it is the Cornish way Good idea however, there is no k in Welsh and I don't want to confuse the poor lass anymore than she already is. I asked her "how are you" yesterday and she replied first with the Welsh for "goodbye" then "have fun."

He was involved in some prosecutions under the 'Extreme Pornography' laws that people called unnecessarily directed at the gay community, however I can't find them between him (rightly) condemning Operation Spanner when he was much younger and visiting Bad Church earlier this year.

fire every british cop then rebuild any police force only to the absolute minimum extent required from the ground up. automatically reject any application from former cops. the loss of institutional knowledge is a feature not a bug.
