People making GBS threads on each other, fine, whatever ticks your boat, but feet? That'd be like masturbating to video footage of the Red Army liberating Auschwitz. Inconcievable I might not get off on it, but it just feels like one of those things you do for your SO you know? Like giving a massage. Obviously doesn't apply if you have gross or mouldy feet or whatever. Anyway people are loving idiots for loving Boris and his handling of the crisis. Hey let's go shake hands with patients, oh no he and the people close to him fell ill, how coud this hsve happened? Let's all clap for him publicly!

Currently feeling grumpy that the buses stop running at 6:15 meaning I can no longer do my food shop in the evening. I understand it on a practical level but man that poo poo sucks if you're a nurse etc who gets off at 7pm and hey presto you now need to pay £20 for a taxi. And worse, it sucks for me because it means breaking the habit of a lifetime. Booooooo

brian posted:And did they ask you to remove it? I get being sympathetic to people who have their privacy invaded but there's no putting genies back in bottles at this point and I don't know why this is uniquely dangerous compared to any other labour member who's ever worn any party gear or gone canvassing, which presumably these people signed up to previously. Regardless the protection of members should be handled by the party for their culpability in all this due to their complete lack of transparency and money should be spent ensuring they're safe and I don't see Keir doing that either. The report itself needed to come to public attention and will be widely available regardless of whatever you do. Not specifically been asked to remove it, but apparently fascist and white nationalist sites are putting up names of people mentioned. I agree the report definitely needs to come to public attention, but first blacking out the names of innocent people in all this might have been a good idea.

I don't disagree but i do feel that if this could have been handled through internal channels it would have been, the leaker and those around them are taking significant personal risk themselves. If you hollow out the official channels to the point where nobody has an iota of trust in them, people will take more desperate measures with unintended consequences. It's seems fairly clear that Starmer has no intention of acting on this report either privately or now it's in the public domain. Would desperately love to be proved wrong on this.

(Probably a lot on the council as I know they subsidise some of the evening services in these parts because they are both extremely useful and not actually all that profitable) Also can't say if there's later services in other parts of Inverness, but the one to my village does stop that early.

Yeah, I've gotta say if it had been me with my hands on it I would have taken the time to black out the names of anyone who wasn't one of the accused before leaking it. poo poo's dangerous, and it's not like there's any particularly desperate need for urgency AFAICT, the way there woulld have been if they'd leaked it in like... october. But on a related note, does anyone have an appropriate template for a letter to send to my MP (now a member of the shad cab) and CLP officials about this? I want to follow up on it but I simply don't have the brain space at the moment to devote to balancing the appropriate levels of rage with comprehensibility.

Safety boots are good, mine are very comfortable and I'm wearing them at work right now. They are Finnish and as well as saving my toes from heavy things they keep out the snow and keep my feet warm at -20°C. Recommended if you have toes in a cold place. e: the soles are also heat resistant so they may be suitable for toes in hot places but I have not tested this.

Since it's this time of year John 12:1-8 posted:12 Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead. It's been a thing for a long time, op. There was a zombie at the table and she didn't even bat an eyelid. And given how much Himself allegedly travelled and the quality of available footwear at the time it's a fair bet that lady would have been dealing with two big fetid, bruised and blistered gammon steaks, saith he

People won't blame Boris, I think you just have to keep reminding them of how he hosed up actuallyJedit posted:Monkey's paw for whom? He's getting exactly what he wanted. It's the nation that's getting hosed.

Thought it'd make me feel better but honestly made me feel worse, I was getting flashbacks to December (trying to push single pieces of paper through bristly post flaps [lol]) and spent the whole time tense as gently caress waiting for people to start yelling at me for approaching their doors. Was moving as quickly as possible so I'd be a safe distance away if they wanted to start an argument I said to my partner (who was my 'board runner') that I really don't know what it's going to take to get me trusting people again Barry Foster fucked around with this message at 16:30 on Apr 14, 2020 |

Just went out for some grub, and every bastard in my town is out on the street today. Loads of old farts just standing around talking on corners, gangs of kids roaming around, families crowing the shops. Feels like lockdown is falling apart with all the sun, and people are probably bored to tears being inside.

Barry Foster posted:lol I haven't felt positive about the future for a decade I never had any problems when I was out leafletting (other than it being cold wet and dark obvs), even when people were in their driveways, but door knocking is personally one of the most stressful things I've ever done. spending my weekends knocking on house after house deliberately trying to start a conversation about a divisive issue is just not my idea of fun, especially as I'm naturally p goony. There were some nice conversations but more than enough people were grumpy about people knocking on their door because it woke up a baby or something, and even though a lot of them were supposedly previous labour voters a lot of them were only that in the Dan Hodges sense and were mostly just interested in condescending to me about how much they hate Corbyn or whatever but still I did it, and so did thousands and thousands of other people, because it seemed like the right thing to do, and cunts like this can just betray us and the country and starmer can't even issue a half arsed "look I'm sorry that you're upset about this" non apology and instead declares an investigation into how we found out about getting hosed over genuinely disgusting. they were obviously planning to have buried this if it hadn't been leaked, which is just compounding the disrespect and betrayal
