          It's true. Unix is dead. Apart from running on everybody's phone, throughout every datacentre, my laptop, your router, a billion raspberry pis, Apples' silly watches, and probably powering this site. A hundred new instances of Unix probably just booted up while I typed this, as the old operating system goes inevitably to its grave-

                It's a pity that this gormless little turd stands any chance of being elected as PM. I guess we can only hope for a vote of no confidence, if the Tories don't start gaining some steam and quickly.

                Meanwhile, Labour seems to have abandoned the FLC and moved back to FUC. Or so it would seem given the sparse details of their plans for contractors.

                  It might be the best thing to not call for a vote of no confidence - vote everything down that needs voting down, slow down the rate of change that every politician of every colour seems to think needs to be done as soon as they come to office.

                  Then maybe, just maybe, we can see how effective the last round of changes were before ripping them up and starting all over again with a new round of changes because "something must be done".

                  Not passing the budget or the Queen's speech used to be a vote of no confidence in the government, but no more thanks to the changes that this lot brought in. So if it's a minority government, they can be blocked at every turn, without even needing to have a vote of no confidence.

                  Of course, if you do that then you run the risk that the Republicans face in the US - you can't legitimately complain that the PM does nothing if you block every single thing that they want to do.

                    Hopefully, with respect to the "self-employed", the other parties - including the SNP - will clip Ed's wings should he try anything stupid.
