The guy who recently appeared on Joe Rogan’s podcast and told them the Dunblane massacre was ‘one murder’ (link goes to The Daily Record) because he was pissed off his dad his guns taken off him after the legislation was changed.

I hope it entailed as much pain as her continual cruelty did.

UK media now literally banning the words and findings (link goes to the Independent) of UN investigators.

"Anti-immigration protesters in Belfast set bins and vehicles on fire amid unrest over knife attack "

More accuracy required: “Far-right extremists burn out anyone without white skin amid fascist riot”

As far as I can tell he certainly didn’t say anything to TNT about the Villa final last week.

Shit like this is why I’m still trying to make up my mind about the Greens. I hope Polanski takes swift action against this candidate and all others who can’t see the difference between anti-zionism and anti-semitism.

LMDE - no idea if its the ‘best’ but its the best for me right now in that it does what I want, looks how I want and stays out of my way.

That’s giving it to them straight - like pear cider that made from 100% pears.

From the article:

“Britain’s seventh-richest man, who vocally backed Brexit then moved to Monaco, also hits out at people on benefits”

because of course he does.

No doubt. But the time correlation (and yes, I know correlation does not automatically equate to causation) together with the direct consequences it would have on trans kids seems much more suggestive of the withdrawal of care playing a role than COVID.

You’re right that I was wrong that it was Wes Streeting who was warned - got my dates muddled - but it was him as then leader of DoH who commissioned and then downplayed the report into the surge in suicides. It was him and his dept who tried to block various FOI requests. They knew.

Not sure how you come to the conclusion this is COVID related though.

Wes Streeting DoH et al were warned suicide numbers would surge if they did it. They ignored the warning and did it anyway. Suicide numbers did then surge. Streeting et al called the reporting on the surge irresponsible and wrong and denied it all. Now this FOI shows the carnage. Carnage that is most likely as this stage under-reported.

And nothing will change because to the Wes Streeting’s of this world - and sadly a lot of the UK general public - there’s a difference between dead kids and dead trans kids.

No. They all want to lead, no one seems to want to build it. But to be fair, some of the points the article makes about the Greens - especially the lack of grass-roots organising - are not wrong.

Someone needs to check your harddrive mate. You’re way, way too invested in splitting this particular hair.

Agree with one side, not the other.

It’s not great obviously but I’m not sure the word ‘debate’ is accurate.

According to the Lords schedule for next week, this is the only mention of VPN’s I could see. And an oral question is literally that - a question;

“Oral questions are not intended to give rise to debate, and should be drafted in such a way that the minister can make their initial reply in no more than 75 words. Proceedings on each question, including supplementary questions and answers, are limited to ten minutes.”

Everyone knows what they did. That’s not the issue that people have. The issue is proscribing them as a terrorist group when they quite clearly aren’t a terrorist group in a monumental trivialisation of what terrorism actually is and an obvious attempt to silence people.

Wonder why the actual fascists chose Great Yarmouth

As a UK citizen who has massive issues with the OSA, this story makes me empathise with how the ordinary citizens of Minas Tirith must’ve felt as they hid as best they could but could hear the marauding Orc army murdering their way through the city - and then hearing the clear horns trumpeting from over a hill in the middle distance…only to see not the armed might of Rohan come over the brow but a loose collection of people so bad even Sauron was too ashamed to have serve with him.

On behalf of the saner members of the UK, sorry about Murray. Sadly, we’re overrun with pedants of this nature which is largely why we’ve become such a backward set of mouth breathers since 2016-ish.
