Still annoyed at dorries as one of the first things she did as "culture secretary" was overrule the listing of the coal bunker at the old dorman long works.

Should have demolished it on top of her, saved us all a lot of trouble.

I was also extremely unhappy about this. An iconic structure gone forever and for what?

What's crazy is them only waiting 2 weeks after buying it to burn it down.

What did they think they could do next?

Getting any planning permission to do anything else will take years. They could have waited another month or something.

Fiona Rose Diamond, eh? That rings a bell.

She's been barred from pretty much every pub in the Richmond/Twickenham/Kingston area for turning up and causing trouble - vandalising signs, pouring hand sanitiser down sinks, kicking off with bar staff and customers. Absolute nightmare of a person.

"Regrettably, this evening, I've had to inform the Information Commissioner's office of a significant data breach that we're responsible for," he said.

"What's happened is we've received a Freedom of Information request, that's quite a routine inquiry, nothing untoward in that.

"We've responded to that request, which was seeking to understand the total numbers of officers and staff at all ranks and grade across the organisation, and in the response, unfortunately, one of our colleagues has embedded the source data, which informed that request.

"So, what was within that data was the surname, initial, the rank or grade, the location and the departments for each of our current employees across the police service.”

Mr Todd said the information was taken down “very quickly”.

"Although it was made available as a result of our own error, anyone who did access the information before it was taken down is responsible for what they do with it next. It is important that data anyone has accessed is deleted immediately,” he said.

“This is an issue we take extremely seriously and as our investigation continues we will keep the Northern Ireland Policing Board and the Information Commissioner’s Office updated.”

So, apparently, the way to get that information out of the police, is "ask them" and sometimes they will just send you the database.

Like it's a very small chance but if you just do enough foi requests eventually it'll hit the roll and then you skip straight to "here is all of the cop info"

For any non NI enjoyers - police security here is such that all cops faces are usually blanked out in media and cops generally live at least 30 miles away from the place where they actually work for their own protection, and they all have guns.

I wonder what their plan is? Looking at Google earth is an odd setup, pub an old farmhouse off on its own up a long track/lane. Like I can't see it getting permission for a big money making housing estate?

So was it just for an individual mansion? Hope someone gets proper(ty) hosed over.

This basically happened with a local pub here, although the unlawful demolition was stopped partway. Instead we just had half-destroyed ruins for a couple of years, then they got the go-ahead and now we're getting a new old person's home. I still think it'll actually be expensive shoebox flats but who knows

I guess it takes the spotlight off the Electoral Commission breach that was announced shortly before the PSNI breach

e: If someone has access to both sets of data, then they'll also have the home addresses of any PSNI staff on the register.

Thank you everyone for your kind words last week regarding me getting hitched, though in typical fashion married life is off to a rough start as she went down with an awful cold and now I've gone down with an awful cold. Got a horrendous case of insomnia too, so I'm up at 3am doing poo poo. Guess we have decided to speedrun the "in sickness and health" part.

All of you who said I'd quickly get used to the ring to the point of feeling strange when not wearing it were dead on.

Looks like someone forgot his hardhat...

Corruption within the PSNI was publicly known to be endemic, with Loyalist drug houses being publicly emptied by gangs of masked men mere hours before they were raided this past spring. It's not terribly surprising to see incompetence work hand-in-hand with that corruption.

Using volumetric units for berries somehow seems even more perverse than using cups for flour and sugar.

The ampere is of course the correct SI unit to use for currants.

That's how we count berry harvests, we have plastic 10 liter buckets (standardized size) and talk in term of buckets,half a bucket, two buckets, bucket and a half. So I sad 10 liters for the uninitiated. Since we go around the woods with said buckets and filling them.

Decided to WFH today as I had a training session and the sheer lack of effort the leads put into getting the "remote aspect" set up is somewhat staggering.
I'm currently sat here, watching someone physically holding their phone so they can point it at anyone who's talking. Before that, the laptop was pointed at the screen but only the bottom quarter was visible so we couldn't see the slides. And someone had to phone the venue to tell them about these problems, because no-one was monitoring the chat. :ughh:

Hoping there's a feedback form at the end so I can eviscerate them for it.
