I'm willing to die on the hill of social media being a product of Web 2.0. Forums, bbs, icq/irc etc. are all the old (good) Internet and do not count.

Six Degrees was considered to be the first social media site, and that launched in 1997.

Seeing as Keith has got away with a lot of poo poo when he was head of the CPS, I actually don't mind him being accused of something he didn't do. gently caress him.

That's weird. It was linking to Gove suggests Treasury did not OK ‘everything he wanted’ for Levelling Up agenda, where it sounds like he's already trying to make excuses before the full plan is announced.

People will unfortunately be sacked for it. It explains at the end of the video that the brownies were meant to have been for a house delivery, but the house was empty and there was no return address. The package had been kicking around the office for a month, and so someone decided to open it share them around.

I think one of my top annoyances at the moment is people who 'don't do politics,' who know gently caress all about it, refuse to learn and desperately want to go back to not having to know anything, but nevertheless feel the need to stick their loving oar in with their stunning ignorance.

My mum used to say "I don't do politics", yet she used to volunteer as a poll clerk for the electoral commission, used to be a member of the local Conservative club, digested all the far right opinions over the decade and VOTED TORY IN EVERY ELECTION.

But she doesn't do politics, like....

It would have been all his confidential briefings re: Ukraine and Russia, as well as other very secret things. You don't take those sorts of things inside a foreign government building.

All of the articles state "If he resigns" and "He may announce his resignation", which makes me question if he's actually resigning or considering resigning, or if he's being pushed out?

I'd love to be a fly on the wall in Downing Street to witness his mantrums as he sees his world crumble around him. He's completely hosed. He has no idea how to be PM, as he's relied on his faithful Downing Street team to do all the work and keep up the illusion. I can't see many people step up to fill the vacant roles, as to do so could be deemed as career suicide.

So we now have a neutered PM without his trusted senior advisers and communications chiefs. But he's 100% going to refuse to resign. He knows he's going to be a pariah when he loses his office, and life will never be as good for him as they currently are right now. So he has nothing to lose, and as we've seen multiple times, he doesn't care who or what he destroys to get what he wants.

Interesting times....

e: Yup, it's a coup

Technically he may be a conman and might be the bad guy, but you want to see if he gets away with it. And how he did it.
And a part of me thinks he might get away with it. He might pull of one more great con."
