> Pis encore, “comme en France, tout un chacun, une fois rentré dans ses pénates, serait en droit de débrancher tout ce qui le lie à son travail”, s’émeut le journal proche des Torys. “On ne décrochera plus son téléphone, on ne répondra plus à un seul e-mail, et tant pis pour les impératifs d’une économie mondiale qui, elle, tourne 24 heures sur 24.”
Pourtant le droit à la déconnexion est essentielle à l'équilibre mental.
En même temps la mentalité n'est clairement pas la même que dans notre pays.
De ce que je sais, si à l'heure de fin de travail, tu restes pour t'avancer pour le lendemain, c'est mal vu, car en fait c'est considéré comme finir du taf en retard. En effet chez eux, c'est un peu comme aux US, prio à l'économie et au capital...
While I wish the UK would just rejoin the EU outright, I don't see the EU allowing the UK to retain the Pound, and I can see the jingoists making much of joining the Euro. (Also there are acknowledged structural problems with the Euro that need to be addressed).
But a Norway style association would be brilliant. I'd settle for that for now.
@Remittancegirl The EU would demand a commitment to adopt the Euro. But for how that's treated, just look at the Zloty—20+ years after Polish accession and the Zloty is still in use there. Ever since the Greek crisis, the EU has been remarkably lackadaisical about specifying a timeline for convergence.
Looter Lord Elgin presented an Italian "translation" of a fictional Ottoman firman, the original of which no one ever saw or had otherwise knowledge of, then ripped off the #ParthenonSculptures, sawing some in his haste, and moved them to England, where they were scraped clean of the ancient colors that still remained on the marbles.
Turkiye's statement that they "are not aware of any document that legitimizes that «purchase» done by coloni[al] #UK back at that time"
The temple was first destroyed by Theodosius' bigoted Christians in the 4th c CE, then by Venusian Francesco Morosini in the 17th c, who described his vandalism as "a fortunate shot" and went on smashing sculptures from the pediment in his attempt to loot the Acropolis, and then in the early 19th c by Lord Elgin, who stole about half of the sculptures that had survived 2000 years on the Sacred Rock.
Please remember in the #uk you are a subject and not a citizen. While the Royal Family is largely harmless, the #conservatives and #farage are not. They still implement that mindset.
@GottaLaff I hope no one gets complacent over poll results. Folk still need to vote like their vote will be the one to make a difference. Polls like this can be dangerous to outcomes.
