How could they possibly have known that a deadly virus was unpleasant, all they had to go on was the testimonies of qualified medical professionals and the members of the public who had contracted it. None of those people took ppe at oxford so how could they be trusted to know anything

cummings is the culmination of the dark enlightenment people's quest to get into power and one thing about those types is that empathy is meaningless to them, they genuinely can't believe something is real unless they've experienced it themselves

Oh, I take it you didn't hear about plans for the scramble for Africa 2.0?

Is this what people want? I just think it’s an interesting way to get guys fired up to join by promising colonial adventures in the tropics.

I don’t know who the target demo for the RM are of if this is in line with how most people would feel.

He's always been "remain and reform", despite his criticisms. That's the whole point of Diem25.

Still a bit weird to go so much against the Covid-19 response of all things. I get that it's hit Greece hard because tourism, but the overall response could have been worse compared to what other places are doing.

That's like punishing the #1 Europe fans though, for a vote many of them weren't even allowed to participate in, and the ones who were in many cases didn't get a chance to vote because the company sending out the ballots did it in the most incompetent way possible. (Though I have to assume it was actually purposefully incompetent)

I suppose you could do a simple test and just yell "Two world wars" and if they respond with "one world cup" then they get kicked out and Spain can auction off their houses to Germans.

On average they are, Brexit support was only like 20% among them. I did make an allowance for exactly this kind of person with my ingeniously sneaky allusion to Brexiteer pensioneers.

A nanny looking after a child would let somebody go to work but a family member...pause. Well there's the risk you see.

The fact that these rules are such obviously bullshit is just going to make people pay even less attention to them than they otherwise would.

lol it's janet daley

'Daley was a vocal opponent of legislative changes in the UK during the 1990s that would have equalised the age of consent for homosexuals to that of heterosexuals. Writing in The Times she described gay life as "aggressive freemasonry", and argued that homosexuality led to "childlessness, instability and mortal danger from Aids'
