The usual rules apply. Non-rugby talk here. Consider this a social place, but like a pub, things like religion and politics can be divisive, so don't say things here you wouldn't say to someone's face in the pub. Sober

Is anyone surprised anymore, Trump gonna Trump

Zzippy

Russia poisons a former spy with nerve agent. UK condemns it. Trump hums and haws.
Rex Tillerson says Russia did it. Trump fires Tillerson. Via Twitter. Denied by White House. Trump fires Tillerson aide who confirms firing via Twitter.
It's a real life Apprentice show. You literally could not make this sh1t up.

I'm in the same workplace I went into since I left college, the first day I wore a shirt since then I'd say I've only worn a shirt a handful of times.

Sometimes during the summer if we get good weather I'd wear shorts and flip flops. Definitely wouldn't like to work anywhere with a dress code

There's a much quicker way to phrase the above: "I work in I.T."

So in my new job there is no dress code at all

I initially thought this was deadly and I'd live in jeans and nice tops.

A couple of weeks later I'm sick to the back teeth of jeans and never want to see them again

I've gone from suit and tie to jeans + polo shirt. I'll take the latter thanks.

My job is similar. I have progressed over the last few years from making an effort anyway to basically just wearing jeans and a tshirt every day. I wear proper clothes when meeting external people and stuff.

Just could not be arsed if there isn't a reason for it.

I've seen things take 24 hours before appearing previously, but I don't know if there's any hard and fast rule.

I missed against the head. It was up in a few hours. Not sure exactly when.

North Korea.

But that was almost clumsy enough to have been Russia again.

A North Korean agent, pretending to be an Iranian spy, posing as a Russian agent. The perfect trifecta.

Oddly enough, apparently the arrest warrant that's out on him in Greece at the moment isn't for the gun or for (allegedly) threatening to kill the referee, it's for the pitch invasion. Bizarre.

.....oh...and he had a handgun...I'd say the ref shat himself... think the Greek league has been suspended for the moment.

He had bodyguards too. That's a proper pitch invasion.

Ah, forgot that one. I guess NK would have a big motive to kill a Russian in England alright... :rolleyes:

It's not a bit odd. Russian spy who was convicted in Russia but released in a prisoner exchange, of whom the current President said would 'kick the bucket' and who's son died in unexplained circumstances in Russia.

There are legions of quacking ducks marching past in strict formation on this one.

And that was before Brexit. Now they're even less likely to do anything more than tut tut.

If they ever manage to pin this on Russia, with evidence, surely that is an incredibly serious incident? It's almost an attack on the UK by a foreign actor at this point surely?

Have Russia not effectively pinned this on themselves through state media yesterday:

Looks like another Brexit dividend.
