Donald Trump is surely the most outspoken, outrageous and downright politically incorrect United States of America president that the world has ever seen.

It’s fair to say that he divides opinion all over the world as well as all over the United States, but surely the one word he cannot be described as is “dull”.

So we decided here at www.inkntoneruk.co.uk to poke some fun at The D by listing our favourite 10 most outrageous Trump quotes. We are totally sure that there will be many many more to come, but these are our favourites so far:

1. “We are going to have an unbelievable, perhaps record-setting turnout for the inauguration, and there will be plenty of movie and entertainment stars. All the dress shops are sold out in Washington. It’s hard to find a great dress for this inauguration.”

Well that didn’t happen did it Donald?

2. “Ariana Huffington is unattractive, both inside and out. I fully understand why her former husband left her for a man – he made a good decision.”

That’s a particularly low blow we think.

3. “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending the best. They’re not sending you, they’re sending people that have lots of problems and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

No racist abuse here then Mr President!

4. “All of the women on The Apprentice flirted with me – consciously or unconsciously. That’s to be expected.”

You certainly need self confidence to be President but this is a bit too far isn’t it?

5. “I’ve said if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.”

This is just wrong on any and every level!

6. “Look at those hands, are they small hands? And, Rubio referred to my hands: ‘If they’re small, something else must be small.’ I guarantee you there’s no problem. I guarantee.”

Presidents are not meant to make innuendo comments about their penis. Once he’s gone they never will again.

7. “You know, it really doesn’t matter what the media write as long as you’ve got a young, and beautiful, piece of ass.”

Ever the feminist Donald, ever the feminist.

8. “40 Wall Street actually was the second-tallest building in downtown Manhattan and now it’s the tallest.”

Yes Donald, that’s because of 9/11 isn’t it?

9. “The point is, you can never be too greedy.”

Errm …….. you can Donald!
10. “It’s freezing and snowing in New York – we need global warming!”

Wrong again!

The circular economy is defined as an alternative to a traditional linear economy where a product is made then used then disposed of. In the circular economy, which www.inkntoneruk.co.uk is proudly a part of, we try to keep essential resources in use for as long as possible by re using materials to extract the maximum value from them without compromising on quality.

There are many household names that use circular economy principles, like Tesco and Philips, but the question is do they truly believe in the circular economy? In these times of low oil and carbon prices, which have fed through to low commodity prices, the incentives to replace virgin resources with recycled alternative materials has dwindled somewhat.

The problem is very simple: It is often cheaper to use new virgin materials rather than use recycled materials or existing products. That cost driver is the biggest threat to the circular economy.

Statistics recently issued by the European commission have shown that businesses becoming more ecologically sustainable could reduce global greenhouse emissions by 2-4%.

Younger people are particularly interested in what’s known as zero waste markets, which makes it clear that as these younger people are the parents of the future, the big corporations are going to have to take notice or else!

Governments must act and enforce these principles either via punitive measures or via incentives but act they must and www.inkntoneruk.co.uk is ready to take up the challenge.

This time last year Hewlett Packard (HP) released what they called a “security update” which locked out a widespread number of printers for people who were using non-original cartridges. This caused an outcry throughout the industry and from many HP customers, which resulted in an apology from HP and a statement that they would reverse the update within a matter of weeks, which they did do.

They did however warn that they would endeavour to block the use of non-HP cartridges in the future.

Well now exactly 1 year on they’re at it again with a new firmware update for it’s range of Officejet printers resulting in “cartridge problem” error messages. No doubt uproar will ensue but it looks like HP are willing to take the flack.

As a consequence the following message may show for some customers using non-original cartridges in their Officejet printers:

“One or more cartridges appear to be damaged. Remove them and replace with new cartridges.”

This years security update however is a little different from last years and not quite so nasty, because HP are offering a way to resolve the issue by downloading new firmware from their support page, which you can access HERE.
