Corbyn wants to establish clearly and firmly that the UK government needs to get Parliament's approval to enter a war.

Apple vs repair companies

dimanche 22 avril 2018 à 02:00

Apple sues independent repair companies in many countries, using trademark law to bully these small companies into settling at a disastrous price.
