Private Eye (In the Back section) From Private Eye, a brief update on the lie detector system soon to be used across the UK on suspected 'benefit thieves'*, i.e. all claimants. The system comes from Mossad, but what's really alarming is that it is administered by scorched-earth PFI war machine Capita. Outsourcing Lie–detector technology developed by Mossad for interrogating suspeted Palestinian terrorists is being used in British Jobcentres. subject: Biopolitics | Class | Identity | Information | Policy | Precarity | Psychology | State | Surveillance | Technology | War | Other

Building workers rank & file committee Bulletin from the Building Workers Rank & File Committee on organization beyond union opportunism in an Olympically-inflated sector where 'precarity' has a literal life-and-death meaning, and employer attempts to divide and stratify labour in relation to immigration status and other questions of 'legality' (eg 'fake self-employment') is endemic.

Most importantly, the text explains the concrete connection between intervention in the name of 'health' and 'ed subject: Australasia | Class | Energy Resources | Government | History | Law | Mapping | Money | Multiculturalism | New Enclosures | Occupations | Policy | Politics | Precarity | Race | State | Surveillance

Henry C K Liu A pertinent reminder that the so-called 'housing bubble' isn't just a matter of subprime foreclosures and repossessions: the buyers of the 'financial products' through which mortgage debt is abstracted and redivided at the outer limits of algorithmic calculation are none other than private pension funds, so that capital's 'no alternative' answer to the pseudo-problem of the 'demographic bomb' may yet manage to create a real 'pensions crisis' where none need have existed Why the subprime bust will spread By Henry C K Liu subject: Banking | Business | Chaos | Fictitious Capital | Financial Crisis | Government | History | Money | Neoliberal | Policy | Precarity | Psychology

Toby Official 'New Zealand' is a sporty, soporific hell-hole of 'classless' good cheer.

Edward Another biopolitics update (and no, contra Foti/Dyer-Witherford there's nothing 'subversive' about it this time either). Like many other employers, presumably, Swedish telecoms group Ericsson has decided that being 35 years old or more makes its workers useless to the dynamic, fast-moving etc etc hi-tech sector. The difference is that Ericsson is actually trying to make them leave, using 'voluntary' redundancy packages.
