More seriously that reminds me of the assumption that Indian families keep all their wealth in jewellery. Zac Goldsmith controversially sent that to anyone with a Desi-sounding name during the 2016 campaign https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/mar/16/zac-goldsmith-leaflet-british-indians-heirlooms

Cuckooing is when you use debt or intimidation to coerce a vulnerable person to let you use their house or flat (often social housing) to do your crimes in.

otoh I'm less sure about this. Thefts of Chinese gold? Thefts of gold by Chinese people?

Some googling seems to indicate it's targeted theft of gold jewelry. In various asian cultures it's given as gifts for special occasions like weddings and it's apparently a huge thing to swoop in and clean people out after because of course it is.

Queen throwing some epic shade at Johnson, coming in a white dress - the same colour as the surrender flag to show her secret support of the "surrender bill". Also some jewel-encrusted butt plug that was owned by some dowager who was some mistress or whatever. (not pictured).

Hello, dear
Also why are there children at these events? I think someone should ring the social on their parents because taking your kids out of school and packing them off for the day to a place with so many sex offenders you could fill a phone book with their names is really quite negligent imo :mad:

It'll just be permutations of "And here is an alleged nonce. And her alleged nonce son who was best friends with a nonce. And the Queen is wearing the ruby earrings of the Maquis de Nonce, after whom the practice was named."

lol Trump literally did this when a black reporter asked Trump if he has spoken to the CBC (Congressional Black Caucus) and he asked her to set up a meeting for him and she was like "uhh.... I don't know them?"

This makes me incredibly angry. The BBC is scared of what might happen if they give airtime to an "extremist" who wants to plant some loving trees during a climate crisis, meanwhile racist sacks of poo poo like Farage and Hartley-Brewer get regular appearances and even Tommy Robinson got that feature thing a while back. gently caress this.

I've changed that. It was thoughtful of her to move to a CLP that didn't change the list order.
