Given in the US you require medical insurance, would your insurance pay out if you were injured and they saw this. ?

Thanks to the Supreme Court's 5-4 ruling this May, the EPA was forced to remove protections from most of America's wetlands this week.

Harlan Crow's firm lobbied for the rollback while he secretly plied Justice Thomas with gifts.

Anyone see a problem here?

This could have implications for the Uk / EU laws on e-safety.

Over the past monmth we have seen a succesful coup in both Niger and more recently Gabon. I wonder if those behind this have been watching what is going on in the US closely and thought well if Trump can attempt to overturn an democratically elected government and get away with it, so can we.

So in some sense if this is true, Trump has empowered opposition in various countries to use force to take over a country.

Nice going eh. The failure of the US to act swiftly against trump and followers has potentially put thousands at risk.

@iuculano @vfrmedia

Those at the top never seem to lose their jobs and nothing is then in place to stop them getting similar jobs elsewhere.

You only need to look at the fact we have just found out some schools are unsafe. This is going to cause serious disruption.

So kids starting new school are going to be anxious as it is, those with SEND more so.

No wonder more parents home school which as we have discussed on here about that can lead to more problems and safeguarding issues in some cases.

@iuculano @vfrmedia

Indeed

We havce seen this with social services, serious case review, points finger / blame at heads of children services, they resign and get a job at another location.

As they resigned and not sacked nothing shows up on previous employer checks, however documentedf who was in charge.

Same person, new authority and errors are made again and again.

@vfrmedia @zleap this, in my opinion, definitely reflects poorly on the background check

@vfrmedia @iuculano

We can set privacy here so posts are not searchable, this works well as a thread or part thereof doe not tell the story of the thread, seeing one part of it, and making a judgement is hardly professional

I tried to do a search on myself using ddg and google, I found my linkedIn profile, which is abandoned due to the fact I see LinkedIn as a waste of time, and full of adverts and self promotion, so don't bother with it. It iis also so slow I can't be bothered either.

That showed up on a search, I changed the privacy setting so it would not, (as the profile is out of date anyway)

I am not here because I want to hide my activity, I am here because I don't like Mainstream social media, their data collection / sale, advertising and unethical behaviours.

@vfrmedia @iuculano

For education we are subject to DBS checks and as part of that are checked against the child barred list, and apparently other checks, including online checks.

The system is only as good as the records show,.

@iuculano

Given we have the incompetent failing at their jobs and just getting jobs elsewhere to fail again, I agree we have a systematic problem in the UK.

@zleap one of two things, imo.
Either the background checks were highly inadequate, hinting at a systemic problem...

Or..
The person who approved the background check is one of them, hinting at a corruption problem.

Either way, it isn't good

@simon_brooke @sellathechemist @SiobhanVohn

There has been news reports of barriers in the road to control traffic also hinder emergency vehicle access, hence I said implemented properly.

Back in the 90s, when I was 11, I had a conversation on Usenet with this dude called Todd Howard, who said he wanted to make a space RPG. I am 41. Today, it arrived.
