Sweet, free megaphone.

Think about all the socialism you could spread :anarchists:


The Antonov An-124 Ruslan was designed in the 1980s by the Antonov design bureau in the Ukrainian SSR, then part of the Soviet Union (USSR). Until the Boeing 747-8F, the An-124 was, for thirty years, the world's heaviest gross weight production cargo airplane and remains the largest military transport aircraft in current service.

Caption gives the lie to the picture a little.

And what the gently caress is up with those sleeves? Did he want to “roll his sleeves up and get down to it” but Domcumshot didn’t fully explain what that entailed?

I knew someone who's favourite pastime as a teenager was standing on the side of busy roads in a high-vis coat, pointing a hairdryer at cars. He also collected emergency services uniform. Highlights of his career include being a beach warden and police community support officer. This is just the kind of powertrip that would appeal to him. No longer being allowed near children probably rules him out, though.

"Sorry if u feel offended"

quote:

Patel, when pressed to apologise to NHS workers over a lack of personal protective equipment, couldn’t quite do it. She said:

I’m sorry if people feel that there have been failings.

After being asked twice if she would apologise to NHS staff and their families over the lack of “necessary PPE” that has been linked to NHS workers becoming infected and dying, she said:

I’ve been very clear in what I have said and I’m sorry that people feel that way

When Diane Abbot says something dumb she tends to stumble, and there's always a moment of "hang on is that what I meant?".

Priti Patel, just says dumb stuff, and then repeats with talismanic confidence. When she was arguing about the death penality on QT she kept talking about "maximum burden of proof" which makes me think that she just doesn't know what the words mean. But because she (and Raab) are much more polished in their delivery they don't get called out for it.

That's because when Abbott says something dumb it's generally the result of mild hypoglycaemia from her diabetes. Patel also has a medical condition, but in her case it's called stupidity.
