Yes it's the outcome that usually suits both parties.
I did upset a suited brief who asked to give an opinion. I told him I was there to give facts as I new them others are paid for opinions.

Difference obviously being here, it's up against MBS and the Saudis. Hence why I thought it would be interesting to see how it plays out. Even if they give David an out of court settlement, it'll open the door for other foreign employees to kick up a fuss if they get the boot.

Won't be the first or last dispute involving the Saudis. There's a reputational thing here to where the Saudis become an employer as last resort. Top end smartarses are in demand and there's an informal circle of contacts where prospective positions will be discussed.

Seriously? They can't find people convicted of less serious crimes to release first? That's unacceptable. I understand the prison system is ****ed but we're talking about someone who helped a murderer. Releasing scum like this early isn't the solution.

Elle Edwards: Murder accomplice's early release 'a mockery' - BBC News

It seems to me successive governments of all colours really don't give a **** about the safety of the general public. The social contract can only be torn up so far, before people start taking things into their own hands. It's really really dangerous because if people don't think they're given justice over the murder of their child then they will deal with issues themselves

This is actually the opposite of the truth in a sense. In an effort to seem tough on crime, government after government has increased sentences without increasing prison sizes. We are having to let people out early but we are the number one nation for locking people up in Western Europe. We are crazy for it! Stick ‘em in jail now, think of the costs later!

But how many times do yo have to see that people on here just aren't interested in listening to your opinions. I have said before that somethings you say are quite interesting, but mostly ignored by the way you put it and by some of your other outlandish claims.

Know your audience. That is all I can say.

Luckily, we don’t live in the communist dictatorship that you and the other lefties crave. Despite the globalists trying to control all narratives and censor free speech online, they’re losing. The truth always comes out eventually.

So i can say whatever I like :). (Well.. until Keir Stalin begins throwing anyone that wants to lower taxes and reduce the size of government into the gulags of course)
 
I am also not trying to censor or curtail 'free speech'. Just pointing out that there are better and more receptive places to spout **** than on a Saints football forum.

Keep it up I say Os, it is actually my entertainment to see what totally ridiculous stuff you come out with next.

I look forward to tomorrow's instalment of 'Batshit Crazy Bullshit with Osvaldorama'
