    Normally not as high as that. Some outsourcers and consultancies only require a pulse to invoice.

    When the team are internal its frequently better.
    Plenty are nice Guys & Gals but not what we expect at their level.

    There was the odd gem to be fair. And I would also add that I never disliked them as people, in fact on occasions when working physically together in the same office we even had a lot of fun. But their code... jesus wept.

    Immigration Concerns


    But talks between India and the UK have hit a snag over easier access to thousands of skilled workers from the South Asian nation that is likely to push finalizing a free-trade agreement beyond the October deadline.

    New Delhi’s position has hardened in the ongoing negotiations amid concerns raised by UK Home Secretary Suella Braverman on migration from India. The comments made last week prompted India to say both the nations should “honor” the “understanding” with regards to migration mobility.

    Maybe people should be appointed as PM & ministers via a national lottery. Can't be worse than the current lot, or any of the alternatives.

    Yes, he's quite a thoughtful chap.

    Her real name is Sue Ellen, which I suspect she only uses on internet fora. The "Suella" thing is just marketing on her part.
