I asked them to delete my data, they said "Install our app"

No, it’s not at all legal for the company to do this. Reply and remind them they have one calendar month to comply from the date of your original request, otherwise you will make a complaint to which ever information regulator is correct for the juridiction they’re operating in.

I’m a lawyer specialising in Data Privacy, reply here if you need more help on this one.

Also feel free to name the company.

England worst place in developed world to find housing, says report

Okay, hear me out here. Maybe we should stop treating housing as a commodity and allowing companies and individuals to accumulate large property “portfolios”?

Because this is the fucking problem; homes are not commodities to hold in a portfolio, they’re homes for people to live in.

The UK seems to have this as a recurring problem, we are the only modern economy that has a fully privatised water supply, something which is essential for human existence. Housing is a basic right, yet we allow massive profit to take priority over that.

Apple says it will remove services such as FaceTime and iMessage from the UK rather than weaken security if new proposals are made law and acted upon.

I agreed that they should definitely fuck off, but this will be pushed y the security services. A change of government won’t change the drive for this sort of bollocks.

“Oh but what about the criminals, terrorists and pedos?”

What about all the people that aren’t that who loose their privacy?

Nigel Farage called ‘sketchy crackpot’ in secret NatWest emails

You know what, I think you might be on to something here.

But no, “Big Nige” would rather stoke the bogeyman and have the people with everything in common with one another, fight each other. Don’t for god’s sake look at what else is going on, just keep fighting the fucking nonsense culture war.

Nigel, you’re a fucking twat, you’re not a man of the people, you’re a cunt. Now fuck off and bank with your foreign investors.

Bell-end.

They fuck you up, your mum and dad.        They may not mean to, but they do.    They fill you with the faults they had     And add some extra, just for you.

But they were fucked up in their turn     By fools in old-style hats and coats,    Who half the time were soppy-stern     And half at one another’s throats.

Man hands on misery to man.     It deepens like a coastal shelf. Get out as early as you can,     And don’t have any kids yourself.

Thanks for the advice, you took time on that and I genuinely appreciate it. On the question, I think I don't trust myself and my first love. I trust my wife without question. I think speaking to her about meeting up was always in my mind to do but I was worried about what might happen at the meeting, or as a result of the meeting. Talking is indeed absolutely the right course of action.
