Tory MP & member of the ironically named 'Common Sense Group', Chris Loder, has denied he advocated for food shortages by suggesting at a Tory Party Conference event that it would 'be a great opportunity' if supply chains were to collapse.

In a December @BBC interview, Loder appeared to threaten Mick Lynch: "I think he's on very thin ice with this now because there are a lot of frontline staff who think [striking] in a cost of living difficulty running up to Christmas is too much & he needs to be very careful." 
Statistical illiteracy.
Info is that 20 per 100K have some "serious" side effect (not fatality) *after* vaccines (across age groups).
Assuming due to vaxx, compare to ~2-5K per 100K unvaxxed hospitalized owing to Covid.

2) Now regardless of your computation of the risks for unvaxxed and Simpson's eff. [vaxxed are older, infection rate can be higher, etc.], it remains that we are talking 2 order of magnitude difference.
3) Note: serious does not necessarily mean hospitalization. And, critically, includes people who got sick for other reasons.
With respect, I do not. 1) He was #RIGGED into office and not elected; 2) He has been vile about his opponents whilst abroad, and at home using NAB jails; 3) He has laid the country low. Absolutely zero respect for the #SelectedDolt who is a fascist to boot (pun intended!).
2/ I hope none of us have forgotten that he is selfish and self-centred and arrogant, to the point that he had the brass, gall, temerity AND shamelessness to travel all the way to London to canvass support for his son's uncle, Zac Goldsmith against Pakistani-Brit Mohammad Sadiq3/
3/ for Mayor of London. In the event, Zac lost badly. I hope none of us has forgotten that he took days to travel to Quetta to condole the deaths of many innocent and peaceful Hazara. #SelectedDolt is a base being, devoid of any human feeling of empathy, indeed sympathy. He is 4/

This is your daily pension announcement: The Pension War Room™️ notes that a new AIMCO CEO has been appointed! And, with the oldest PR technique, this news is announced at the same time as the bad news. Distract from the bad news! #AbLeg #handsoffmypension
In fact, I wonder how Evan Siddall feels about having these two announcements sandwiched together. I have never met Evan. I know him by reputation. Several mutual acquaintances have phoned me this AM to vouch for him as a stand-up guy. #AbLeg

A couple of thoughts:
1. As expected, someone who is tight with Mark Wiseman.
2. Evan is apparently super tight with Mark Carney. I thought that would disqualify him from the job. #AbLeg #handsoffmypension

THEY may go on for a while, but are very badly exposed as the courageous @MaryamNSharif and her good father are pointing out. The country is almost penniless; the poor are starving; law and order is worsening; and Afghanistan is about to blow up. Time for a FAIR election 2/

3/ our so-called 'Defence Minister' stands on the COAS's left! Which reminds me: perhaps it IS time for @OfficialDGISPR to ask the question: 'Why don't Indians criticise their Army Chief/RAW'? WHY? Why doesn't @adgpi the Indian DGISPR sic a retired Lt. Gen. on to, say, 4/

This is your daily pension announcement: What should the Board of AIMCO look like? For an answer to this question look no further than the report prepared by Bill Moreneau when some tiny pension plans were being amalgamated in ON. #ABLeg
Travis didn't realize he needed a report here before messing with public sector pension plans. He claimed public knowledge of his plans would be "damaging". Why can they do it in ON then? #ABLeg #idiot
To transfer Bill Moreneau's well researched recommendations to AB we would have an AIMCO Board with 11 directors: 6 (including the chair) would be appointed by the GOA, 3 by the clients (LAPP, ATRF etc) and an additional 2 by the plan members (you and me). #ABLeg
This is your daily pension announcement: Remember this article? It makes me livid to this very day. Especially the part where:
"...Jerrica Goodwin, said government wants to consolidate pension management with AIMCo to achieve "economies of scale."

"...Jerrica Goodwin, said government wants to consolidate pension management with AIMCo to achieve "economies of scale."

That, of course is horse shit. More to the point, doesn't that quote make is seem that Travis is MANAGING the ATRF funds? You know making decisions about where the funds were invested and all? #ABLeg #idiot
I will quote from the Teachers' Pension Plan Act which lays down the law on this topic:
"17
(3) The Board shall
(a) INVEST or lend the assets of a Pension Fund in a manner that is not excluded by the regulations, and"

First, from the update Travis opines:
"Government obligations for pension plan liabilities are $415 million lower, mainly from improved valuations for the two Teachers’ Pension Plans. Other liabilities have decreased $567 million."

@JehangirJm Just saw him on a larger screen: If this is the Farooq Hameed I know, he is a complete #Idiot! Was given crores to run a 'newspaper' by ISI which he promptly ran into the ground. Is even now working for @OfficialDGISPR and getting paid to entertain journalists in 2/
2/ Lahore and being the knuckleheaded duffer that he is, uploaded pictures on Twitter showing him entertaining 'Dear Anchors' at the Lahore Defence Club embarrassing them and, hopefully #ISPR! Can you believe that this duffer was our Asstt. MA in Washington D.C.!!
3/ He is one of the #Khurpas, some Lt. Gens. among them who are paid for each tweet by #ISPR!! No matter how bloody stupid; how damaging to the image of the Army!! Such #DangerousDuffers!!
This is your daily pension announcement: The Pension War Room™️ is in "I told you so" mode. Much to our chagrin. Take a look at the quote below from the inquest into the VOLTS debacle at AIMCO. This is what @ChristinaNDP and @SPhillipsAB were getting at... #ABLeg
That quote is from the scope of the inquest saying compensation needs to be looked at as being a cause of the VOLTS losses.
Yet in all the recommendations, compensation is never mentioned. Never in the positive ("AIMCO's bonus structure is fine") ...#ABLeg
Yet in all the recommendations, compensation is never mentioned. Never in the positive ("AIMCO's bonus structure is fine") ...#ABLeg
and never in the negative ("AIMCO's bonus structure incentivized dangerous risk taking by individuals hoping to earn their next big bonus.")
And, to be clear, we got no clear answer from AIMCO in the Standing Committee meeting. #ABLeg #wherewaskevin

In 2002, Berkeley UCPD made trading cards for their officers so students could get to know their cops: "In lieu of conventional business cards, the department’s new cards feature 45 officers in stereotype-defying poses." berkeley.edu/news/berkeleya…
It's been a while, so we updated the initiative. Throughout the day, we'll introduce UCPD's roster with the latest publicly available info (2018-2020 depending). Here's Cpt. Alex Yao, under lawsuit for workplace discrimination #acaberkeley
Sgt Andrew Tucker, who hospitalized four students in 2011. Maybe they asked for it, though: Chancellor Robert Birgeneau called the protestors "not non-violent" because they'd linked their arms together: sfgate.com/opinion/openfo…

(A bit niche, this one, but it felt like it needed doing. There's not much information online on the how, what and why of the caption overlap problem.)
(This one also distinguished by the fact that I managed to do the base talking-head video in one take with just a couple of pauses and no fluffs... only to discover, when I played it back, that my shirt collar was tucked fetchingly into my neck the whole time #idiot)
@mosharrafzaidi Saying 'Everyone is free to interpret any words one has put in the public domain in any way they want to' to someone you have known for well on 30 years, words that suggest he is traitorous enough to wage 5th Gen war against his own country, is arrogant; 2/

This is your daily pension announcement: Well, for 48 hours now I have been stewing in a loathsome broth. I can't decide which of the following three things is the worst:
#handsoffmypension #idiot #travistime
#handsoffmypension #idiot #travistime
1. Is it the worst that some idiot at AIMCo who probably makes $500,000 per year off the taxpayer wrote the business case to move ATRF pension investment? It is so deficient that well... see yesterday's Tweets. #petermilburn
2. Or is it the worst that a GOA Cabinet used this poor work as justification for a decision that will likely cost teachers and the GOA millions of dollars? #ripoff Come on, Travis the least you could do is not blame it on some mook from BC named Peter. #peterprinciple
