If you read the next line, the author casts considerable doubt over whether Venables was correct about this being an attempted rape, which does seem rather odd given how form here her language is in the previous paragraph but there you are.

2·4 months agoBattery technology has become so much cheaper in the last few years but the dial does not seem to be shifting on fission. I’m not sure why so many commentators online are so wedded to the technology, given how expensive it is.

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Palantir’s UK boss criticises ‘ideological’ groups as ministers move to scrap NHS contractEnglish
6·5 months agoAh, if it ain’t Louis “Blackshirt” Mosley. Never met a less ideological guy. He’s like an ideology black hole. I wonder if he’s written to his boss and overlord asking them to tone down the ideology nonsense, you know, the western chauvinism, the bizarre antichrist conspiracy ramblings. I expect he’s getting around to it.

UK Politics@feddit.uk•Green activists called Jews ‘abominations’ in leaked WhatsApp chat - Campaign Against Antisemitism says views shared in group forum are ‘straight out of Nazi Germany’English
51·5 months agoIf you quote a haterag, people are going to take issue with that.
Don’t take pro-Israel partisans at face value. You think a source is legitimate because it quotes someone who was given a peerage after helping to bring down the former leader of the governing party? Because it quotes a pro-Israel campaign group?
I don’t know if that screenshot is real. Assuming it is, a handful of members in one group in one local party are expressing views that can be interpreted as antisemitic. Ok. I hope that appropriate action is taken. It’s hardly evidence of your horseshoe theory horseshit.

61·5 months agoSelectively quoting a right wing tabloid doesn’t prove anything. If you don’t know whether a news source is legitimate, you could try asking someone from the country in which that source is based. The Telegraph is not legitimate.

71·5 months agoIf you’d like us to read this tabloid source, you could provide an archive link. Why didn’t you quote a Green Party response btw?
Oh no. Please, someone stop them.



So only £50k a year on average then? It does seem ludicrous how our political class always falls back on, “well, we declared the bribes!” as if that nullifies it.
