Of course he’ll tie this up in appeals and legal quagmires and nobody will see a cent of any penalty they impose. Because TechBros are above the law or have already bought it. Lucky for us our government have already perfected kissing their ass. #speirghorm

Britain and the US are like the Tweedledum & Tweedledee of history. Thoughtless, selfish bullies imposing their will on the world. #Speirghorm
