The other aspect of the deportations that I don't think has been mentioned yet is the courts set the penalty for the crime, and once you've done your time the law says that's that. To then deport people after they've served their time is punishing them twice for the same crime, which shouldn't happen.

Dunking on Sunny Hundal is like scoring into an empty net from 3 yards so instead I'll ask a more important question Want to get a bottle of gin for my sister. My budget is extremely low (I have £20 and need £7 for the bus). I can maybe scrape together another £10 by digging through loose change. So let's say my budget is £20. I know as much about gin as I know about not running out of money just before Christmas so I'm looking for recommendations. How are Lidl or Aldi gin? Any other brands worth considering? Christmas on a very tight budget loving sucks, especially when everyone who buys you thinks isn't working on such a tight budget. Great respect for my folks from when I was a kid.

Guavanaut posted:There's definitely grifters and fellow travelers who make good use of the fact that that these conspiracies filter for people who have never been forearmed with critical thinking skills or what a good source looks like, but the one thing all these conspiracy theories seem to select for is people who feel that things are off somehow but haven't been given satisfying reasons for why that they can understand. It's absolutely this, and it's definitely not a coincidence that conspiracy theories have exploded in the last decade and particularly the last five years. The gap between the image of life sold by the media and politicians is so far removed from the lived reality of so many people that it creates a massive, fertile field for conspiracy theories to take root in.

Sipsmith is on rollback to £22 at Asda and is very good. Or for a sweet fruit gin that me and my other half really like there’s Aber Falls Marmalade gin that’s around that price too.

There's reality as it is, and then there's what we make true by believing in it, and the latter is kudzu growing on our lives.

All of the mRNA vaccines are targeted on the "spike" of the virus, the bit that does the actual infecting - if that mutates too much then the virus loses some or all of it's ability to actually infect us. It's not *impossible* that it can mutate enough to both evade all of the current vaccines (which all, AFAIK, target different bits) and stay as virulent, but that's lottery-winning odds. (Note that my only expertise on this is the standard armchair virology I feel like everyone's picked up over the last 9 months)

The spike being what it is is a major factor in COVID being as dangerous as it is, though. Also that possibility has been explored and there's more backup plans for that problem than possibly any in the history of science. It'd just take starting testing from scratch.

Their whole point up to now has been to avoid doing that so I would expect they tell everyone to go ahead, buy a lot, socialize a lot, then blame them for the ensuing death wave.
