Re: #HorizonScandal I find it touching how many people have such blind faith in any computer system that they cannot conceive that there mogjt be errors. I worked on many programs in my career and a bug free program is rarer than a unicorn!

@senisulyman Be the perfectionist! Take take take. Adjust retake repose "move your head right a bit", "chin up", "hold on there's a reflection" "no no no not that far". You will soon get the sack especially if the end result is rubbish and you insist its "ART"

There we have it, an MP who deliberately won’t listen to anyone who questions her rhetoric. Remember folks, these are voted in public servants. Got the message yet, she’s only interested in her own opinions, doesn’t care what the voting public think.
