On Monday, 740 members of .uk internet registry operator Nominet made the drastic decision to ditch five of its 11-strong board of directors, including the CEO and chairman, in a fierce rebuke of the company's efforts to move from a non-profit organisation to a commercial one.

Seems like a democratic and capitalist system has addressed the issue, and things will change positively. Or not, and the market has spoken.https://www.theregister.com/2021…
Could be worse. Nominet, the UK's domain registry service, could be as dysfunctional as the EU one and ban UK owners of .EU domains.
- Sorry, not 'change positively', rather - 'not change at all, and keep the current model'.Nairn

Absolutely horrific!
God the country is a disgrace. Over in Tokyo, Shanghai, Taipei etc, that brand image of the UK is of everyone being super polite and the men are all "Classic English Gentleman"... and the reality is:
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news…
"University student, 21, was kidnapped on night out before being tortured by gang who forced him to hand over his life savings, court hears.
The student in Leeds was subjected to horrific 22-hour ordeal in October 2019. Zakariya Osman, 25, and Harris Saqib, 24, stubbed cigarettes out on his body. They also force-fed him tablets and made him drink vodka in the terrifying attack.
Forced to call bank demanding transfer of £10,000 from his accounts to theirs.
The student told the court in a statement how he had been left permanently scarred from the injuries.
The prosecutor said: 'He had to leave university and Leeds despite attempting to carry on as normal.
'He found the stress and pressure of being in Leeds and his studies overwhelming.'
Osman also pleaded guilty to two further offences of robbery.
Judge Bayliss gave Osman a 30-year sentence while Saqib was jailed for 20 years.
Judge Bayliss said: 'All robberies are serious but the robbery and kidnap of [the student] is a chilling crime.
'It was committed against a young man whose life has been changed by your actions.
'Changed to the extent that his university degree course has had to be abandoned, changed to the extent that he will never be able to walk the streets with any confidence any more.
'What he went through was unimaginable.
'You caused serious physical and psychological harm to your victim.'"
- And your take from this is that people aren't polite enough?palimpsest
- That's always been the case. It's actually better now.PhanLo
- You can torture people and still be polite. Doesn't hurt to dress nicely too. It's all been downhill since the Krays.Fax_Benson

- Back in my day we had a brand. A BRAND!NonEntity
- You think this individual horror story equates to "this country is a disgrace". What's the weather like in clown world?TOMMYxGUNN
- Yes, because you need to note the frequency of such events, across yearly stats, to see where we are going, and it ain't good.shapesalad
- I'd like to see those figures, pray do share.TOMMYxGUNN
- shape's obvious dislike of the UK is worse than mine of Sydney. And that's going some.MrT
- Ah the Krays, London's favourite pedo-sadists. Loved their mum though. And the queen.PhanLo
- There was a stabbing near mine the other night. Two rival disorganised criminal drug gangs are having a squabble. The next night someone got shot.PhanLo

Weird the country is now in 8 days of mourning for a racist old man that didn't like any of the people who are meant to be sad for him.
Every radio and tv station playing miserable sad tunes just in case Lizzy tunes in.
Brutal.

- I'll follow your tone.
"An angry, sexist, homophobe"TOMMYxGUNN - Should have posted it in the DMX comments Tommy.PhanLo

- haha, wonderful
but watch, if you go down that route...Nairn - Do people with silly names all end up in UKIP? Nutty Nutalll, Dick Braine, Mark Reckless, Batty Batten, Wayne Kerr, Mike Hunt and now Dr Gammons??kingsteven
- London definitely spoilt for choice this time round. "Running for Mayor" is the trending euphemism for "midlife crisis"Fax_Benson
- London = Florida, politically?Nairn
- Fuck! Laurence Fox hasn't got a chance now.fadein11
- Ok I give up. What is funny about his name?monospaced
- @mono, 'gammon' is a derogatory term for right-wing, middle aged old white men who typically have a small minded nationalist outlookBaskerviIle
- Sums up the base of the UK Independence party perfectly. (gammon on account of the way they go all pink link a ham when they get angry)BaskerviIle
- oh wow I had no idea! How descriptive. To me it’s just a backgammon term, nothing else.monospaced
- Just came here to post this...VOTE REJOIN EU!shapesalad
- gammon as a cut of meat is a salty thick piece of bacon, it is gross and tough and pink and thick, much like brexit voting gammon necked fools.shapesalad
- Haha it's funny because gammon is pink and they are pink haha.
Totally not racist.TOMMYxGUNN - Yeah, Tommy - I am bemused by how oblivious righteous cunts are when they use the term.Nairn
- lol... I've heard it all now.fadein11
- I've been saying this for as long as the term has been popularised. I'm curious to know how it's in any way incorrect.Nairn
- Anyone that uses the term Gammon is signalling their superiority to the "stupid-Brexit-votin... working class. It's not a good look.TOMMYxGUNN
- HOWEVER. The fact this guy is called Peter Gammons and a UKIP candidate, is a funny coincidence.TOMMYxGUNN
- its a bit of an old one now anyway, at the time i remember it being used by a lot of 'nice guys' treading close to #metoo deflecting their wrongs to boomerskingsteven
- My apologies if it's now deemed about British white ethnicity, but isn't it an old Dickensian thing related to how a persons (white obviously) complexion becamefadein11
- pinker after raging about a self perceived slight that made them look even more ridiculous? A perfect summation of Brexit supporters.fadein11
- How gammon is perceived racist is utterly absurd, stereotypical perhaps but I guess it's edgy to call out white race falsehoods while not edgy to support actualfadein11
- race issues, because you know, I'm edgy, I don't actually have any values anymore.fadein11
- On a simpler level it's about those who enjoy an over abundance of pork products. But perhaps I need reeducating.fadein11
- Some even fuck pigs heads at university drinking clubs.fadein11
- So we're agreed it's an insult based upon a persons immutable characteristics.TOMMYxGUNN
- Yep totally racistfadein11
- You went round the houses in your attempt to avoid that conclusion, but you got there in the end.TOMMYxGUNN
- Thanks for the educationfadein11

- You're hurtin. Bless xTOMMYxGUNN
- Crying liberal tears fella, I may need a support group. Or at least a safe space to virtue signal in joyous cognitive dissonance.fadein11
- Hit me up, I love a good cry.TOMMYxGUNN
- Oh I get it now, because I oppose the term Gammon I must be a rootin tootin right wing nut job. Hence your use of all those buzz words. Clever.TOMMYxGUNN
- I responded to Nairn lol. I must admit I hadn't noticed your comments. You seem really bothered by my opinion though, happy to discuss furtherfadein11
- I'll make it really simple for you:
"GammOn Iz Rashist"fadein11 - The snowflake/crying note was for Nairn?TOMMYxGUNN
- nope, a general one. Oh dear, are we getting down to post time technicalities now? Please expand on your gammon is racist narrative? I'm happy to change myfadein11
- Thank you for using poor English, I understand now, it really highlights your self imagined superiority to us cretins who disagree.TOMMYxGUNN
- Eh? But you still haven't given any argument?fadein11
- Eh? My argument is it's an insult based on skin colour. Name me another skin colour insult that you deem ok?TOMMYxGUNN
- But it's not about ethnicity you MEGADERP. Lol, what a hill to die on.fadein11
- Is DERP racist? Shit, I need to read my SJW manual again.fadein11
- How is it not? You yourself said it is based upon skin colour. I agree this is getting silly. You resulting to insults isn't a good look.TOMMYxGUNN
- Y'can call any cunt what you like, as I do -
I just see this said from some types with little self-awareness. I don't care much, just an observation.Nairn - What other skin colour based insults you comfortable using fadein? Would you call a black brexit voter a gammon?TOMMYxGUNN
- oh my... what a time to be alive.fadein11
