The UK is evidently doing "much worse" than is continental Europe, because the latter has more stringent mandates. How is the one "better" and the other "worse"? By what metric? The entire concept is assinine, and nearly all parties in nearly all countries seem to be passing the same judgment.

Far from a nefarious ploy by a select-few, what we witness now, is an indictment of the entire planet.
If people understood all numbers have been inflated from day one, this whole argument would fall apart.

Congress is exempt, as are the Whitehouse staff.

The Post Office too.

I'm going to be fired as being employed by a company that has more than 100 employees.

28 year CAREER obliterated!

All by a completely arbitrary illogical goal.

This is EVIL!!!
