The DUP thread

[AustinPowers]

Wasn't sure where to post this, but as they're close advisors for the DUP....

Newton Emerson make a great comment on Saturday that the East Belfast UDA had lost the UDA franchise, lol.

So their racqueteering, drug selling, community "services" will no longer be under the name of the UDA.

Ah bless.

It will cost them  a fortune getting new headed  notepaper and  business cards done

Some pressure on them, and the optics of healthcare staff telling them to get back to work is awful.
Jeffrey wants to get back but the other Westminster MPs aren't so keen.

Not one f**k could they give though.

Not one f**k could they give though.

Both statements 100% true.

Part of me wishes the British Government would tell the whole the lot of them to go f@+k themselves and if they were not sitting in Stormont on Monday morning them and their office staff (family members and other hanger ons) would have their salaries reduced to £0.

In a normal society that would have been done a week after the c***ts wouldnt go back in after the election.

I see Arlene and Michelle have been publicly found to have something in common ie a willingness to destroy any records that might show how inept they were in power.

They're a pair of c***ts, on the same level as Boris.

The truth is very few of them have the ability to run a country.

Is it not the case that their phones are wiped once they hand them back?

Yes, this would happen in most companies if you hand back a mobile phone, computer or laptop.

And so it should, You do not want a record of government to be sitting in a storeroom or whatever. However, things like Whatsapps or text messages can be backed up before the phone is wiped and should be archived in some way if they are used for official business.

Who backs it up? The Government or ministers? What safe environment would the ministers back it up to? Twitter lol!

I'm sure that stuff could be retrieved, and nothing like digging up shit to make news

Except when the civil servants had been told not to do that. That they would be required or the enquiry. Another blunder from a civil service full of shitheads who are completely unemployable in the real world.

My understanding is that the ministers didn't wipe anything. They handed back the phones when they were no longer service as ministers.
Civil servants then reset them to factory settings.
I can see why they'd do this, but I also beleive that if there was official communications done via Whatsapp or other means then those records should have been retained.
Sounds like a break down in process again.

Yeah, heard Naomi Long on about it this morning and that seems to be the case. Don't think this sits at the door of Arlene or Michelle. Civil service are responsible for this.
