Reminds me of a friend whose niece is called Angel. He thinks that's a stripper's name. I don't make the association but then I don't know many strippers.
Elektra is cool. Sounds like a sci-fi character.

I don’t think “stripper” when I hear “Angel” but it does make me think “tacky and low class” - which is probably snobby of me.
(Unless they’re Latino then I wouldn’t see it that way.)

I know someone called Angelique but that doesn't seem so tarty plus she's a foreign type.

It's the boy what gets the pleasure, and the girl what gets the blame .... www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/68501426Massively ill-consideRed Bull. What a bloody catastrophically idiotic move. This may be the end of Christian Fucknuckle's stewardship, his marriage (3 months, tops) and Red Bull in "sport".

I have to admit to knowing nothing about all that beyond the headlines. Nor caring.

Man pesters employee then gets her fired when she reported him
Not a good look, but entirely consistent with corporate practice.

Well, motorsport culture. Awful people.

I have to admit to knowing nothing about all that beyond the headlines. Nor caring. Fair enough. It only piqued my interest because of the way that it was being handled. Like watching Jeremy Clarkson kicking a lamb down some stairs.

I'm sure if Ginger Spice wasn't involved it would barely get a mention.

Yeah, that's half the fun: watching her pretending that her husband hasn't been caught bang-to-rights trying to hang out the back of a colleague.

Probably a price she's willing to pay for the lifestyle. She'd be getting humiliated on Celeb Big Brother as we speak if it wasn't for his cash.

Well, she'll get to keep the cash now. Good time to cash in her chips, as his prospects are about to look less rosey.

"Christian Horner: Red Bull boss says 'time to draw a line under' controversy over accusation about his behaviour"
Haha. That's a masterclass in wishful thinking and mis-reading the situation. What a dick.

I had a read into it and the ones who own 49% of Red Bull wanted to fire his perverted ass, but the ones holding 51% wanted to keep him, and someone called Jos is moaning about it pulling the team apart.
Sordid stuff, but kind of what you expect from the type of people running motorsport teams.

What a dick. Ah-ha! www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/68712864TBH, that reads like a bit of a black flag operation. Also, "The woman is unable to talk about her claims, having signed a legal undertaking not to discuss the matter with anyone other than her father and brother, the friend said." That seems very odd. The whole story sounds like a threatening reminder.

Definitely I'd say. He's weighed up his chances with a costly health service + freedom vs a free health service +maybe jail for the last few years of his life. Or maybe banking on a sussie sentence due to health reasons.
