Paid consultants £7000 an hour, none of them seemed to have told her about school level science about viruses mutating or the 2nd wave. Was surprised when more testing would be needed in September, when the schools were forced to open. "None of us were able to predict a new variant would occur." - Dido Harding...

Hurrah, we've finally banned those pesky Norwegian fishing boats from our waters. WE ARE IN CHARGE. The Express's fishing narrative Wait what? THEY DARE BAN OUR BOATS from their WATERS?

After decades of being anti-EU and years of supporting the leave campaign the Daily Mail finally posts a slightly more objective look at what the Brexit deal actually means for us. Unsurprisingly, its almost entirely negative. Daily Mail's Brexit benefits Working - That's right UK citizens now have less rights than EU citizens living in Britain. Passports - Forget using the fast-track e-gates at EU airports or Eurostar. Travel - You're now limited to 90 days stay in EU countries in any 180 day period, and pay for a visa-waver....
British "ex-pats" (as they're often referred to - when technically they're migrants) have noticed that streaming of British Sky programs no longer seems possible. Looks like sadly they'll need to integrate properly into Spain, and learn the language now - just like migrants to Britain frequently get told to. Sky Go ends streaming across the EU Joey: "My parents who voted for Brexit and then moved to Spain. A photo story....

Back in May of this year I retired my old home server that I put together back in 2009. It was built around a small form factor Asus T3-P5G31 system with an Intel Pentium Dual-Core E5200 and 4GB of RAM. Running Microsoft’s original Windows Home Server and Small Business Server (running in a VM for Exchange), before being later upgraded to Windows Server 2012 Essentials. I decided this time I’d rather go for a more standard case for the new server, but I still wanted it small and compact, so I opted for a mini-ITX case (with 6 drive bays!...
