"@TheGhostSleepi1 Train etiquette may vary according to culture: how much noise it's okay to make how close you should get to other people when the train isn't crowded etc. Stabbing people is pretty much frowned upon in every culture in the world though. Ergo integration is irrelevant here"

"@paullewismoney Highlighting the fact Lloyds employs people to analyse its own staff's banking data and then exploits the findings for its own benefit rather glosses over the fact they also employ people to analyse their other customers' banking data. What do they do with "those* findings"

Proscribing an organisation because of the action of one person would be like disbanding the Met Police because of Wayne Couzens"

"@tw_pjm @ZacGoldsmith @TheGhostSleepi1 The General Assembly and the International Court of Justice have ruled sovereignty over the islands must pass from the UK to Mauritius. Insofar as this agreement does that CERD hasn't criticised it. The only criticism - which I agree with - is over the lease"

Their issue is that the UK's [--] year lease effectively means Diego Garcia won't be handed back for at least that long. I agree with that"
