That’s assuming it’s actually people and not bots driving “engagement”.

Is there really enough people signed up to a Telegraph account to provide 172 comments on a minor story within a day of publishing?

I don’t know, maybe, but I’m dubious.

Both Facewatch and Sainsbury’s point to the software’s “99.98% accuracy” – but Rajah suspects the margin of error is higher and has questions about the dataset behind this claim, and if it is representative of a range of body types and skin colours.

99.98% looks good to a layman, but that number is meaningless in reality.

Is that 0.02% error false positives or false negatives, or both?

Also, 0.02% means 2 in every 10,000. I don’t think it takes long for 10,000 people to go through the doors of Sainsburys every day, considering the UK population is about 65 million and they’re a nationwide company. Once this is rolled out nationwide they’re going to have constant false flags.

Scumbag oppressive tactics by a scumbag company.

Do you believe what Keir is saying in that quote?

I don’t. The Prince of Darkness had that nickname for a reason, not arbitrarily.

Keir regrets that it became public knowledge, nothing more. This could end his premiership.

Yes. Along with the treasurer of Reform

In the photograph I noticed there’s water either side of the road, so I looked it up on a map and it’s such a dumb fucking stretch of road. Of course the sea will take it!

Why waste money rebuilding it over and over when they could make an inland road that serves the same route?

Highlighted the road in red for visibility.

David Lammy also tells MPs he will draw up legislation to stop prisoners using human rights laws to challenge tougher conditions

Yeah, fuck those humans using human rights to prevent cruel and unusual punishment!

/s if it wasn’t obvious enough

Why stop at supermax? They should go for super duper max! Super duper ultimate extreme maximum.

This is fucking atrocious and anybody still supporting Labour at this point should hang their heads in fucking shame.

No trial by jury, worsening prison conditions, increased surveillance everywhere, perfectly setting up the fascist takeover if Reform get elected.

There’s something about these Blairites that just ain’t right. Almost as if the people who co-opted the labour movement for the benefit of capitalists were a bunch of wronguns…

Labour party kept known paedophile in high powered senior position for years and gave him the dignity of resigning instead of kicked out

Publicly known since 2019, privately known since the late 00s. But the Red Tories would never do anything evil and bereft of morals?!

Your Party MP Zarah Sultana has posted on X

Sigh…

He told Kuenssberg that politicians who admitted taking drugs and then advocated for incarcerating drug users were taking a “hypocritical approach”, when a “public health approach” was needed to prevent deaths.

Hear hear

Dishwasher? Fucking bourgeoisie and their fancy toys. No dishes are washed in this home without labour!

To save a click:

As the campaign kicked off last weekend, Anderson posted three photos on X taken with a crowd of campaigners outside Stanley House Function Rooms.

He wrote: ‘Gorton & Denton. A cold but productive day in what will be a hotly contested seat.’

But Stanley House Function Rooms are not in Gorton & Denton.

Government follows proper opsec…

Another non-story from Murdoch’s Times.

Exactly. They haven’t been one since the 90s.

Is there a left wing party currently corrupted by foreign interests?

But the near unanimity in blocking Burnham is also a sign that the institutional support for Starmer is perhaps stronger than might have been imagined – and there are clues about how an average member of the parliamentary Labour party (PLP) might react to a forced leadership challenge.

In public, some outspoken MPs denounced the blocking, but in private far more were voicing concerns about what a Burnham byelection candidacy might unleash. Some MPs have proved themselves all mouth and no trousers when it comes to whether they are serious about regime change.

And UK hackers definitely won’t have targeted Chinese officials…

“Intelligence agencies attempt to gather intelligence” is hardly a story

Fucking Times and Torygraph

These are almost nonexistent in the UK and a very niche requirement which doesn’t explain the vast majority of pickup users’ choice.
