He is going to fk up 50 notes too by making them plastique

How well will they roll up?


I wonder what the smell will be like? I can see some sniff testing coming up...

They might not burn at all now that they've taken all the tallow out to appease the veganistas.

Did they actually do that in the end?

Apparently they shrink in the tumble dryer. They come out looking like crisp packets do if you put them in the oven (that's probably not applicable to modern crisp packets)

I wonder what pollutants come off the new notes when they're burned?

Not the point I was trying to make, but that was discussed on here days ago. Boris is going to f**k contractors, he's going to f**k ordinary people with jobs. Boris is going to f**k pretty much everyone. You can escape this f**king by being a multimillionaire, going to Eton, burning £50 notes in front of tramps and watching your school chums f**k a pigs head. Other than that, you're probably f**ked. HTH.

IT is on the list as "highly skilled" however the government is calling it "digital technology". You just need some sort of certification and you're in.

I'm happy to share a digit with the government.

Funny how we haven't got any 5G technology because we off-shored it all.

Nothing to worry about?

I mean, they say it's for mathematicians and scientists, people with PhDs etc.

On the contrary, there's a lot to worry about. Money is only but one of many reasons keeping people away.

90% of the reason this Engineer left the UK for Germany (could have been Spain just as easily at the time) was mostly down to being paid nearly three times at much for the exact same job at home. And don't get me started on how much cheaper housing, food, general cost of living was compared to home.

If the UK government thinks skilled STEM folks (generally lefties) are going to come to a hard right leaning nationalist country for poor salary and expensive living costs.... think again.

You won't get any pertinent answers here and probably end winding up quite a few people.
Sensitive subject on this forum with most of the contractors fearing they'll be replaced with 3 mediocre fresh off boat resource at 30k a pop. On shorter leash as well.
My personal opinion is they are quite right in thinking so...

Ah... it's general, go ahead with your business

Why is it a sensitive subject ? The private sector IR35 changes have been known about for ages. The only people who didn't know they were coming were the 'I votes boris beecoz da tories is da party of biznizz and well off people like me' arseholes that frequent this forum. Anyone who thought an 'australian style points based system' meant anything other than more offshore and ICT visas is borderline retarded. We got what the country voted for.

Yes, I think you're probably right.

Well, for the record, I didn't vote for him.

They could start by trying to get people who are proficient in English........

Don't want to post links to potentially fake news type sites but I just read:

Reports have emerged that the PM Boris Johnson intends to do away with the £30,000 salary requirement for importing foreign workers. A think tank has warned this will see immigration “spin out of control”.
