If only they’d had years to see this coming and multiple people warning them that their EV offerings were absurdly overpriced compared to what China and Tesla were capable of producing…

The BBC are reporting that all staff were rescued except for the cook whose body has been recovered for what it’s worth.
AFAIK Mike Lynch was the highest net worth individual on the yacht and Reuters says his net worth is ~$450 million so there may actually not be any missing billionaires. (The Evening Standard claims he had a net worth of £986.4 million which would make him a billionaire in USD but rich lists are often BS so I’m going off what was claimed in court)
Apparently they also make civilian versions. I take no responsibility for any poor financial decisions you make as a result of this information…
No, more cheese!
The trick is not to steal faster than the economy can produce. It’s like organic, fair trade, sustainable kleptocracy.
Last I heard he was shacking up with a French politician these days: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laure_Ferrari

Not wanting to tangle with the 2038 problem yet though I see 🙂
Well given they arrested a Russian agent on Wednesday for plotting to disrupt the Olympics there are suspicions about who could be behind it but we’ll have to wait and see…
Not sure how you achieve that in a world with multiple nations though. Capital is naturally pretty mobile.
To be fair, while he will see more consequences than would be likely if this had happened in the US, it’s still pretty rare for police officers to be successfully prosecuted in the UK. More likely we’ll be looking at an IOPC investigation and internal disciplinary procedures rather than criminal prosecution.
This happened in the UK where plea deals aren’t really a thing.
It’s quite possible that he had taken the opportunity of being in a country with easier access to alcohol and drugs to go on a bender and ended up drowned. Remember Yeltsin standing outside the white house in his underwear pissed out of his gourd trying to hail a taxi to get pizza?

Regarding the name:
Israeli officials insisted that the directive’s name was a random computer-generated designation, however, Hannibal, the Carthaginian general, is said to have preferred suicide by poison rather than being taken prisoner by his Roman enemies.
To be fair, more people voted for Corbyn in 2017 and probably even in 2019 (still some votes to be counted at time of writing so that could change but it’ll be close either way) than voted Labour in this election (12.8 million 2017/10.2 million 2019 vs 9.7 million so far in 2024).
It’s just an artifact of FPTP and to some extent overall turnout (which was very low this election) that the results in terms of seats look so different.
