| terrifically intelligent and obviously absurdly well-educated, he's just a liar and a sociopath.
No idea how intelligent he is, I wouldn't say I've seen any obvious signs of outstanding cerebral capabilities.
As to his education, he got a 2.1, quite respectable but given the resources employed (Eton and Oxford) in his education anything less would have been shameful.
|suspend him or order a recall by-election as a result.
I believe that while the Parliamentary Standards Committee can order a suspension, the prospect of a recall election is not due to the committee ordering it but rather sufficient electors in the Member's constituency petitioning for it.
The recall election only becomes a possibility if any suspension is greater than ten days in length.
I do wonder if Farage will decide to drop out before the vote.
Farage, more than most people, seems to strongly dislike ridicule and to lose a good deal of his vote to a comedy candidate would significantly damage his long term political prospects. If the polls look really bad for him it might be better to cut and run.
If that happened it would be difficult for the Count as I assume he would win the seat, but having to be a reasonably behaved MP is an onerous task and one that he might prefer not to take on.
I appreciate that in global terms I live a life of data privilege, but I really don't think a 95mb download is any problem at all if the thing I'm downloading has utility.
As the article mentions under some circumstances trailer mounted generators are not considered stationary and that is the basis of the plaintiffs claim.
I haven't read the prospectus but I would be interested to know, when he dies, to what degree the "... control the outcome of matters requiring shareholder approval" part will be inherited. Does that facility just go along with the Class B super-voting shares? And if it does what does it mean if more than one person inherits his shares?
On the subject of the governance structure this [1] is worth a read ...
"The company significantly limits shareholders' rights to sue. SpaceX's bylaws will make it clear that anyone who owns shares "irrevocably and unconditionally" waives all rights to pursue a jury trial. Shareholders will also be prohibited from bringing class actions against the company, its directors, officers, controlling shareholders or bankers tied to the IPO, according to the filing.
Instead, shareholders will be subject to mandatory arbitration, which had long been illegal in the U.S. The Securities and Exchange Commission reversed its position, opens new tab in September, allowing companies to adopt mandatory arbitration policies, which are private proceedings overseen by arbitrators."
... I can't remember how much he spent in Pennsylvania but you might argue it was money well spent.
The voting issue is problematic, but the limits on shareholder class-actions seems like a good idea. Do you know of any shareholder class-action lawsuit that actually benefited the shareholders? They only ever seem to benefit the plaintiff lawyers pursuing the case.
That's because they often don't go far enough, and that's because of limits on things like shareholder class-actions.
If you haven't wiped out their corporate savings and sent the stock price tumbling, you haven't really done anything to get the needed recompense and to discourage the behavior in the future. Right now, many companies are effectively sole proprietorships or partnerships with window dressing made to look like there's real accountability. If it becomes impossible to oust the CEO, you're not a shareholder, you're a bagholder.
It's hilarious (or would be if it didn't involve killing people), the same dullards who wanted to "drill, baby, drill" have accelerated the move to renewables in a way they would have struggled to do if they were the most greeny administration ever seen.
