Superdry’s £441m boss is accused over ‘hiring unpaid teenage staff’
He’s the tycoon who made £441 million through his clothing label Superdry, and spent £1 million on trying to overturn the Brexit vote, but Julian Dunkerton has been getting teenagers to work in his trendy bar for nothing.
I can disclose that his No. 131 hotel in Cheltenham has been offering youngsters unpaid trials, with the understanding that there will be a job for them at the end, as a tactic to fill shifts on busy nights — before later withdrawing the job offer.

[Stands for “Take the loss”. Frequently used to describe flunking a test, being dumped, being stood up, being beaten up or robbed, or losing one’s money in the stock market, (or) gambling] – or, in this case, a foreign policy defeat…
Breaking news… we’re hearing from Sir Keir Starmer… Labour opposition policy on Ukraine is… exactly the same as the Tory government policy… except… sanctions on Russian football ought to have been imposed earlier… been stricter… and last longer.
I’m joking of course. Sir Keir is isolating himself safely in a bunker until it’s all over.
Joking apart – or are they…? ‘Ukraine’s women’s magazines fight back. “How to remove your acrylic nails to hold a weapon”‘ – so says the ‘i’, one of our left-leaning newspapers, which warns: ‘The worst is yet to come‘
Suitably braced for further media idiocy we turn to the Telegaraph: ‘Mayhem on maternity wards as terror bombardment brings early arrivals‘ – I’m descerning a rather familiar narrative here… let me guess… ‘War disproportionately affects women, so why so few female peacekeepers?‘ (Guardian 2016); ‘Covid has intensified gender inequalities, global study finds‘ (Guardian March 2022); ‘Why this recession disproportionately affects women‘ (BBC 2020)
Who writes this stuff and toward what demographic is it targeted?
Admittedly, some of us blokes have made proper fools of ourselves – Defence Secretary Ben Wallace and his “full tonto” is a case in point. Now this chump: ‘Full kit plonker. John Terry dips his toe into geopolitics. What we really need as the world goes mental is ex-Chelsea numbscull John Terry dabbling in a bit of complicated world politics‘ (Daily Star) – apparently he Tweeted about Roman Abramovitch being “the best owner in the world“. Seems that opinion was on a subject well over his pay grade. You see, we only want to hear about politics when it’s from Garry Lineker and Marcus Rashford.
‘Arise Sir thicko. Fury errupted over claims that axed education secretary Gavin Williamson could get a knighthood‘ (Daily Star) – well, education policy is none shall fail and all shall have prizes.
They do say a week is a long time in politics. Looks as though a day is a long time in war. Yesterday the brave Ukrainians were holding off Putin’s hordes and tearful Russian soldiers were surrendering. Today the heroic Ukraine President pleads for an armistice: ‘Zelensky sends message to Russian leader… talk to me‘ (Daily Mirror)
The Sun insists: ‘Putin is the… Extreme Gangster‘
One checks Urban Dictionary for how some of the kids are using the term gangster: ‘A badass who can give respect and gets respect‘; ‘True gangsters are respectful towards people generally, until you cross them‘
The FT has this right: ‘Sanctions will set off unpredictable financial aftershocks‘
‘European natural gas prices hit a record high amid “exceptional moves” in raw materials from oil to wheat‘ (FT)
‘Georgia and Moldova applied formally to join the EU, piggybacking on a Kyiv bid for fast-tracked entry‘ (EU)
The sooner we tone down the rhetoric: ‘Who’ll rid the world of this ranting madman?‘ (Daily Mail); ‘TV anchor Rahul Shivshankar yells at wrong man on Ukraine live. An Indian news anchor has inspired jokes and memes after yelling at the wrong guest while debating the Ukraine crisis.‘ (BBC) – see sense, cut a deal that provides Putin with some of his demands and stops the shooting – then the better off we’ll all be.
Take the L and move on. Be wiser and better prepared next time.

But on the 23rd of March it’s the budget ….. any guesses for how much money is going to be spent on the military …..after so many cuts …. I can almost sense a ´bidding war ´ or who will demand more and more – all of a sudden ..

………..it makes me sad that no very long ago there were reports of ending tank possession completely – methinks there will be a lot more –
This assumes we are here in 3 weeks of course ….
…. By the way … count the days until we hear green crap again …
Rory Suchet is the son of legendary ITV and Classic FM presenter John, but his own reporting has been blasted since Russia invaded Ukraine.
Last Thursday, when the war kicked off, he stuck with the Kremlin’s line that there was no invasion. He said: ‘The West are calling this an invasion but I’m not seeing any Russian tanks rolling into any major cities.’
He also claimed the Russians had only acted ‘to defend the Donbas’ from Ukrainian nationalists. He also said ‘direct fighting with Ukraine soldiers has largely been avoided’ despite pictures and video showing otherwise.
Suchet appears to have grown disillusioned with the West in recent years, blasting it for ‘demonising’ Putin and claiming the MH17 crash over Ukraine in 2014 was part of a western conspiracy and not Russia, as suspected.
The family has remained tight-lipped over his appearances on RT, formerly called Russia Today, who remains in his post despite a raft of journalists quitting.
Suchet has claimed Putin’s brutal forces are on a peacekeeping operation in Ukraine – which is the Russian president’s claim – and also suggested there was no invasion.
Afshin Rattansi, 53, is British presenter and former BBC journalist who hosts his show Going Underground on the television channel.
His Twitter bio claims ‘NOT Russian State Account’, but he consistently slams the West while praising President Putin and his government.
Unlike most westerners at the channel, he has been tweeting regular updates throughout the Ukraine invasion and not shied away from spouting his views.
He replied to one social media user on Thursday who asked about his show: ‘It’s on RT – but that’s banned in Britain and the United States which supply the weapons to kill in Palestine & Yemen.’
A Ukrainian crime gang used offshore firms in British tax havens to secretly invest millions of pounds in the UK, a BBC Panorama investigation has found.
The gangsters, and in some cases family members, bought luxurious property in prime London locations, including a £12.5m flat.
The daughter of a man dubbed the “Don of Odessa” is the registered owner of three homes in one expensive block.
Many of the revelations come from the Paradise Papers data breach.
“As the invasion of Ukraine continues, many people want to know what’s happening on the ground. We have spotted more misleading content falsely claiming to be in Ukraine–from fake accounts pretending to be CNN, to the BBC using archive footage of a military parade as if it were real footage of Ukraine.”
Bet Wendy and UNit 751 will be shredding that one.

They’ve been in control of the place for several days
A Russian patrol was attacked by Ukrainian fighters who’d made there way into some accommodation building.
Russians used small arms in defence.
The Ukrainians set fire to the building on Leaving.
Boris (with Cummins) did get us out of the EU. None of the others would have.

Shane Ward the Aussi cricketer has died at the very early age of 52 from a massive heart attack.
Of course all speculation in the media is crushed as to whether yet another fit and healthy sportsman has died of a previously unknown heart condition as a result of the covid vaccine which was pretty much mandatory in Australia.
No one will be allowed to ask this question let alone speculate in the media so it will be down to independent sites like this to raise it which will then be immediately dismissed as ‘conspiracy theory’. If only so many of these conspiracy theories didn’t keep being proved to be truth after all.
You mean Shane Warne. Coincidentally, another Australian cricketing hero, wicket keeper Rod Marsh, also died of a “heart attack” earlier today. Marsh played in the 1970s and ’80s, before Warne (1990s, 2000s) so perhaps not such a surprise in his case, but curious nonetheless.

The barmy muppet show across the water goes from barking mad, demented strength to strength:
“Vice President Kamala Harris was slammed by critics Thursday over a poorly timed tweet calling for Congress to pass the Equality Act amid the breakout of war and a possible nuclear disaster in Europe.
“Let’s send the Equality Act to President Biden’s desk. We must increase protections for LGBTQ+ Americans across the country. The onslaught of state bills targeting transgender Americans and their families is wrong,” Harris wrote, focusing on a separate issue than the then-ongoing attack of the largest nuclear facility in Europe by Russian forces.
Russian forces launched an attack on the Zaporizhzhya nuclear plant in southern Ukraine overnight as part of their ongoing invasion of the country, leading to fears of a potential nuclear disaster akin to Chernobyl in 1986. The plant was captured without any major incident or increased radiation readings.
Critics took to social media to slam Harris, questioning why she would be focused on such an issue amid the war and other serious domestic issues facing Americans, like rapidly rising inflation and the ongoing border crisis. ”
“America: inflation is screwing us, our border is lawless, and there’s a ground war in Europe. Kamala: we need to get men in women’s sports asap,” wrote Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, while another critic claimed the Biden administration was “living in the Twilight Zone.”

He resigned from his position at MSNBC in December 2013 after making “ill-judged” comments about the former Governor of Alaska and Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin.In 2016, he returned to the BBC as religious affairs correspondent.
In 2020, the BBC’s director general Tim Davie apologised to the brother of the princess, Earl Spencer, for Bashir’s use of faked bank statements to secure his 1995 Panorama interview with the Princess of Wales, Spencer’s sister.[Former Justice of the Supreme Court Lord Dyson conducted an independent inquiry into the issue. Lord Dyson’s inquiry concluded Bashir had commissioned fake statements to deceive Earl Spencer in order to gain access to Diana and in so doing had “acted inappropriately and in serious breach of the 1993 edition of the Producers’ Guidelines on straight dealing.
Bashir resigned from the BBC in May 2021, citing health reasons

[Stands for “Take the loss”. Frequently used to describe flunking a test, being dumped, being stood up, being beaten up or robbed, or losing one’s money in the stock market, (or) gambling] – or, in this case, a foreign policy defeat…
Breaking news… we’re hearing from Sir Keir Starmer… Labour opposition policy on Ukraine is… exactly the same as the Tory government policy… except… sanctions on Russian football ought to have been imposed earlier… been stricter… and last longer.
I’m joking of course. Sir Keir is isolating himself safely in a bunker until it’s all over.
Joking apart – or are they…? ‘Ukraine’s women’s magazines fight back. “How to remove your acrylic nails to hold a weapon”‘ – so says the ‘i’, one of our left-leaning newspapers, which warns: ‘The worst is yet to come‘
Suitably braced for further media idiocy we turn to the Telegaraph: ‘Mayhem on maternity wards as terror bombardment brings early arrivals‘ – I’m descerning a rather familiar narrative here… let me guess… ‘War disproportionately affects women, so why so few female peacekeepers?‘ (Guardian 2016); ‘Covid has intensified gender inequalities, global study finds‘ (Guardian March 2022); ‘Why this recession disproportionately affects women‘ (BBC 2020)
Who writes this stuff and toward what demographic is it targeted?
Admittedly, some of us blokes have made proper fools of ourselves – Defence Secretary Ben Wallace and his “full tonto” is a case in point. Now this chump: ‘Full kit plonker. John Terry dips his toe into geopolitics. What we really need as the world goes mental is ex-Chelsea numbscull John Terry dabbling in a bit of complicated world politics‘ (Daily Star) – apparently he Tweeted about Roman Abramovitch being “the best owner in the world“. Seems that opinion was on a subject well over his pay grade. You see, we only want to hear about politics when it’s from Garry Lineker and Marcus Rashford.
‘Arise Sir thicko. Fury errupted over claims that axed education secretary Gavin Williamson could get a knighthood‘ (Daily Star) – well, education policy is none shall fail and all shall have prizes.
They do say a week is a long time in politics. Looks as though a day is a long time in war. Yesterday the brave Ukrainians were holding off Putin’s hordes and tearful Russian soldiers were surrendering. Today the heroic Ukraine President pleads for an armistice: ‘Zelensky sends message to Russian leader… talk to me‘ (Daily Mirror)
The Sun insists: ‘Putin is the… Extreme Gangster‘
One checks Urban Dictionary for how some of the kids are using the term gangster: ‘A badass who can give respect and gets respect‘; ‘True gangsters are respectful towards people generally, until you cross them‘
The FT has this right: ‘Sanctions will set off unpredictable financial aftershocks‘
‘European natural gas prices hit a record high amid “exceptional moves” in raw materials from oil to wheat‘ (FT)
‘Georgia and Moldova applied formally to join the EU, piggybacking on a Kyiv bid for fast-tracked entry‘ (EU)
The sooner we tone down the rhetoric: ‘Who’ll rid the world of this ranting madman?‘ (Daily Mail); ‘TV anchor Rahul Shivshankar yells at wrong man on Ukraine live. An Indian news anchor has inspired jokes and memes after yelling at the wrong guest while debating the Ukraine crisis.‘ (BBC) – see sense, cut a deal that provides Putin with some of his demands and stops the shooting – then the better off we’ll all be.
Take the L and move on. Be wiser and better prepared next time.

A Saudi man has been sentenced to death for a second time after being convicted at a retrial of a crime he allegedly committed as a child, his family says.
Abdullah al-Howaiti was 14 years old when he was arrested in 2017 on charges of murder and armed robbery.
The Supreme Court had overturned his original conviction last year.
Human rights activists said CCTV footage showed he was not at the scene of the crime and that he was tortured into signing a false confession.

Rory Suchet is the son of legendary ITV and Classic FM presenter John, but his own reporting has been blasted since Russia invaded Ukraine.
Last Thursday, when the war kicked off, he stuck with the Kremlin’s line that there was no invasion. He said: ‘The West are calling this an invasion but I’m not seeing any Russian tanks rolling into any major cities.’
He also claimed the Russians had only acted ‘to defend the Donbas’ from Ukrainian nationalists. He also said ‘direct fighting with Ukraine soldiers has largely been avoided’ despite pictures and video showing otherwise.
Suchet appears to have grown disillusioned with the West in recent years, blasting it for ‘demonising’ Putin and claiming the MH17 crash over Ukraine in 2014 was part of a western conspiracy and not Russia, as suspected.
The family has remained tight-lipped over his appearances on RT, formerly called Russia Today, who remains in his post despite a raft of journalists quitting.
Suchet has claimed Putin’s brutal forces are on a peacekeeping operation in Ukraine – which is the Russian president’s claim – and also suggested there was no invasion.

Afshin Rattansi: Tower block bomb that killed civilians targeted security services
Afshin Rattansi, 53, is British presenter and former BBC journalist who hosts his show Going Underground on the television channel.
His Twitter bio claims ‘NOT Russian State Account’, but he consistently slams the West while praising President Putin and his government.
Unlike most westerners at the channel, he has been tweeting regular updates throughout the Ukraine invasion and not shied away from spouting his views.
He replied to one social media user on Thursday who asked about his show: ‘It’s on RT – but that’s banned in Britain and the United States which supply the weapons to kill in Palestine & Yemen.’

A Ukrainian crime gang used offshore firms in British tax havens to secretly invest millions of pounds in the UK, a BBC Panorama investigation has found.
The gangsters, and in some cases family members, bought luxurious property in prime London locations, including a £12.5m flat.
The daughter of a man dubbed the “Don of Odessa” is the registered owner of three homes in one expensive block.
Many of the revelations come from the Paradise Papers data breach.

Shane Ward the Aussi cricketer has died at the very early age of 52 from a massive heart attack.
Of course all speculation in the media is crushed as to whether yet another fit and healthy sportsman has died of a previously unknown heart condition as a result of the covid vaccine which was pretty much mandatory in Australia.
No one will be allowed to ask this question let alone speculate in the media so it will be down to independent sites like this to raise it which will then be immediately dismissed as ‘conspiracy theory’. If only so many of these conspiracy theories didn’t keep being proved to be truth after all.

You mean Shane Warne. Coincidentally, another Australian cricketing hero, wicket keeper Rod Marsh, also died of a “heart attack” earlier today. Marsh played in the 1970s and ’80s, before Warne (1990s, 2000s) so perhaps not such a surprise in his case, but curious nonetheless.

The barmy muppet show across the water goes from barking mad, demented strength to strength:
“Vice President Kamala Harris was slammed by critics Thursday over a poorly timed tweet calling for Congress to pass the Equality Act amid the breakout of war and a possible nuclear disaster in Europe.
“Let’s send the Equality Act to President Biden’s desk. We must increase protections for LGBTQ+ Americans across the country. The onslaught of state bills targeting transgender Americans and their families is wrong,” Harris wrote, focusing on a separate issue than the then-ongoing attack of the largest nuclear facility in Europe by Russian forces.
Russian forces launched an attack on the Zaporizhzhya nuclear plant in southern Ukraine overnight as part of their ongoing invasion of the country, leading to fears of a potential nuclear disaster akin to Chernobyl in 1986. The plant was captured without any major incident or increased radiation readings.
Critics took to social media to slam Harris, questioning why she would be focused on such an issue amid the war and other serious domestic issues facing Americans, like rapidly rising inflation and the ongoing border crisis. ”
https://www.foxnews.com/media/kamala-harris-slammed-focus-equality-act-war-europe
“America: inflation is screwing us, our border is lawless, and there’s a ground war in Europe. Kamala: we need to get men in women’s sports asap,” wrote Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, while another critic claimed the Biden administration was “living in the Twilight Zone.”

He resigned from his position at MSNBC in December 2013 after making “ill-judged” comments about the former Governor of Alaska and Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin.In 2016, he returned to the BBC as religious affairs correspondent.
In 2020, the BBC’s director general Tim Davie apologised to the brother of the princess, Earl Spencer, for Bashir’s use of faked bank statements to secure his 1995 Panorama interview with the Princess of Wales, Spencer’s sister.[Former Justice of the Supreme Court Lord Dyson conducted an independent inquiry into the issue. Lord Dyson’s inquiry concluded Bashir had commissioned fake statements to deceive Earl Spencer in order to gain access to Diana and in so doing had “acted inappropriately and in serious breach of the 1993 edition of the Producers’ Guidelines on straight dealing.
