Another round of hires of UK ex-polititians by the US big tech firms, accompanied by subservient admiration of those firms by the current government crop.
The current crop happens to be Labour, but it makes no difference. Universal corruption.
My disdain for these politicians is unbounded. Moral disdain for their corruptability, but also political & strategic disdain for their stupidity and their disregard for the consequences of their actions.
A minor sign of hope: some scrutiny coming from the UK parliamentary committees.
Good writing by the Guardian's Robert Booth.
