We are winning the race to the bottom.It's not a comment on long hours and shit conditions for all. it's about how some of the protected and elite are now struggling. Hence me posting in the IRONY thread. OK possibly not a great choice of link to illustrate but it's all over the big newspapers.

The issue is that internships and first-year bankers, with little or no pay, could always be easily navigated by the elite, (top 6% of the population and to an extent those others that go to privileged schools and universities), whether it be law, politics, or banking. The understanding being once you'd serve your time with family financial support, you'd get offered a job with great prospects and eventually great wages. You could then fuck off abroad and pay no taxes. Does anyone know the loss of revenue of benefit fraud compared to tax evasion????
The reason I find this ironic is that the great banking firms, (which let's face it no one would really miss a merchant banker's social or economic contribution compared to that of a bin man), are now turning on their own after helping to dismantle the working class.

Funnily enough, I just re-read "Chavs The demonization of the Working Class" by Owen Jones last week so the timing made it more ironic.

Looks a bit photo-shoppy to me. I would say it's not real.Please say the tape is not sticking to the poor creature!
I think you're right.Looks a bit photo-shoppy to me. I would say it's not real.
There are probably reasons why they don’t give monkeys flick knives. Health and Safety fascism probably.I have absolutely no idea what type of rodent it is.
But 'Steak Knife on a Gerbil' seemed to work better than (eg) 'Steak Knife on a Vole'.
You’re probably thinking of ‘Girlfriend in a korma’."Steak Knife On A Gerbil"

I love the Star Trek 'conflict music'. Nice touch.This the reversed footage. But better than a hamster surely.

An F-35B Joint Strike Fighter shot itself in the skies above Arizona earlier this month, doing at least $2.5 million in damage. The pilot was unharmed and successfully landed the jet. The Pentagon isn't quite sure how or why the jet shot itself and the incident is still under investigation |

I feel your pain. I've had to go to our IT guys on a few occasions to have websites unblocked.

She got a bit of a shock when she entered 'nurses in uniform' in a search engine.I work for a council department dealing with wildlife and outdoor education amongst our duties is writing bird survey reports - the council software routinely blocks tits!
