Between 2015/16, the year before Brexit, and 2019/20, the year before Covid, the NHS budget increased by £400 million per week "in real terms".
That's not to say that the £400 million is the result of a "Brexit benefit" or that the NHS has sufficient funding, but the deliberate misreading of the nonsense that appeared on the side of a bus has always been a specious argument.
FWIW, I'm not sure it's realistically possible to fund the NHS sufficiently, given the massive debts that were taken on as part of Blair's expansion of PPI funding.
If governments cared about future generations, rather than the next election, they would stop saddling them with debt.

> The UK and similarly confused governments will need to negotiate with operators in multiple countries to get access to any given users's keys. There are cases where rational folks would agree to hand over that data...

If there are keys to be handed over by anyone other than the original user it's not an open source version of Apple's Advanced Data Protection.

If he's typical of Google's engineers it would make me question the integrity of their encrypted services.

Designed by the Conservative government but enacted by the current Labour one.
Ironically, with their slim majority and dissenters within the party, the Conservatives wouldn't have been able to get this stupid law through parliament.

Well you're pleasant - hardly surprising that you're happily sucking at the teat of the Labour Party. You're also setting yourself up for disappointment as Starmer and Reeves won't last until the next election (no doubt branded as "blue Labour" in an effort to disavow their hypocrisy and lies), but we can be sure that the replacements will be equally incompetent.
As for the next election, the Conservatives and Reform will split the opposition so my money would be on a hung parliament. Labour might form a minority government, which would at least curb some of their stupidity for the things on which they allow a vote, until it collapses and we go to the polls again.

We should have been planning for more nuclear power. Installing Chinese-made solar panels in the UK is a joke and we don't have the land area of France for extensive on-shore wind farms.
Instead we outsource production of energy to manipulate our globally insignificant CO2 figures at the expense of ever increasing energy costs, (yet another election pledge that the liars in the Labour Party have already broken).

Yes, the then Conservative government shouldn't have allowed TfL anywhere near the study, even though that body should be best placed to contribute. Coupled with the usual RMT threat to strike whenever driverless trains are mentioned, there was only ever one outcome.

Hardly surprising that another study reaches the desired conclusions of those who commissioned it. The trains on half the tube lines already drive themselves, with the drivers only pushing a button to close the doors, yet these studies always factor in the costs of replacing all the trains. On those lines, all they need to do is add a few hundred pounds of electronics and remove a few hundred pounds of train driver.

> UK growth is positive and is doing better than many EU countries

It was, but then 20% of the electorate (33% of the people who bothered to vote) elected a Labour government, and growth is back down to 0%.
I'm sure they say it's early days, (all the Conservatives' fault, etc.)...

Particularly worrying given that they said they would pay for everything by growing the economy.

The exascale computer was not for AI. The spending was to be for 'tech & AI', with the additional £500 million being the part that was assigned to AI computing resources.

Half of the claimed 22 billion pound 'hole' is because the previous government didn't account for the 10 billion that Labour have already spent on public sector pay rises, and the rest would disappear when tax receipts peak towards the end of the tax year. Labour were always going to screw us with even higher taxes, and the 'hole' is just part of their pathetically transparent attempts to blame it on the Tories.
We can thank Alastair f**king Campbell for the deceit (masquerading as 'spin') that has characterised UK politics since the last Labour government of Blair and Brown.

The morons wreck their credibility by deliberately trying to mislead; why conflate the "about 100 families around the world" that they say would be the only ones affected (and we know how long that would last), with the change in wealth of "the world's richest 1%", which accounts for 80 million people. No surprise that it's in every champagne socialist's favourite propaganda pamphlet, The Guardian.

The Register's clickbait headline is appropriate, given the disparity between what was promised and what was eventually delivered.
The 68008, the so-called 'real' keyboard and the ZX Microdrives (offering all the disadvantages of a cassette, but with proprietary and particularly fragile media), meant that the wait and the cost wasn't worth it.
(A Spectrum owning friend pre-ordered one and stuck with it until the Amiga came along.)

Except Apple Silicon Macs include Rosetta and have no problem running Intel binaries.

I haven't had to bother with Windows for years, but I'd be surprised if Microsoft didn't also provide an x86 compatibility layer for ARM.
Otherwise, if you really want a Surface Laptop/Pro and it's still a concern, it says they're offering Intel versions.

FALSEHOOD!

The article is about the 15 Pro/Pro Max so the supported transfer speed is 10Gb/s, not 480Mb/s as you suggest.

Clearly Brexit didn't hit GDP - at least not in a way that is measurable by your self-serving bar chart: GDP continued to rise until the end of 2019 so, at best, you're saying that Covid hit the UK economy harder because of Brexit, which is just your preferred speculation. What is shown by the figures is that GDP continued to rise strongly in the years after Brexit until the pandemic hit.

Universities still have their capacity of lucrative overseas students. An article in 'The Independent' stating a 40% reduction in applications from within the EU doesn't change that.

If you represent those doing the laughing then I'm happy for the UK to be the source of your amusement.

(Unlike you, I don't care about the colour of my passport, which will remain a sort-of maroon colour for the next few years. I do think the old green Italian passports were much nicer than their current, homogenous EU ones though.)
