The English vaccine is when you send a small number in advance so that they know not to trust them, as happened in Lesotho. e: Area 51 has aliens and ghosts and stuff apparently. Guavanaut fucked around with this message at 20:58 on Jan 7, 2021 |

Must admit he looks a lot older than 39 in that photo so maybe he's lying about his age! Ed: Corrected by Twisto a few posts below, the woman is Sajata Stephane. Still, she's definitely an adult in that photo. Jaeluni Asjil fucked around with this message at 23:51 on Jan 7, 2021 |

They did the clap clap announcement over the tannoy at work and everyone went to the front of the shop and clapped at each other in a circle. I stood at the other end of the shop and died.

I'm a contractor so I already literally have an ID card to say that. My being allowed to work for advertising standards is contingent on me not being one  Also happy to report that it is apparently very difficult for people to sustain applause for more than about 15 seconds before it devolves into something that sounds like it should be accompanied by chanting FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

This is a massive crisis at the very least! Will enough of Britain figure out the whole "uh maybe vote for someone compassionate and competent and stop treating money as evidence of intelligence"? 'cause if they don't, leaving is absolutely the right move. It might still be even if they do.

Jaeluni Asjil posted:That image has been doing the rounds for literally decades, mostly in Private Eye. It's not Pamella Bordes, it's another woman who Neill was seeing at the time (we'll come back to her). Private Eye first published the picture when Bordes sold her story (which included sex-for-money with enough Tory MPs that she had a House of Commons security pass) because the News of the World - sister paper to the Sunday Times - spiked the part of the story about her sleeping with Neill (then editor of NoTW sister paper the Sunday Times), and Neill (and Carter-Ruck) were thundering around threatening massive writs on anyone who dared suggest he'd had sex with Bordes (paid or not). The Eye found a gossip-column pic of Neill - resplendent in regulation sex-tourist uniform - embracing a woman who looked very vaguely like Bordes and published it with a *completely straight* account of the gossip story - but then started shoehorning it, without context, into every single reference to him, Bordes, the Murdoch papers, and indeed vests (which is what led to the long-standing tradition of readers writing in with the flimsiest possible justification for them to publish it, e.g. "I am a great admirer of the unsung work of geriatric nurses, do you perhaps have a picture of someone helping a poor addled old man to stand up?"). It is of course childish as hell but also an absolutely *beautiful* bit of trolling because everyone then assumed that Neill had been caught with Bordes, without the Eye ever having said so. It died down after a year or so until Neill let slip to someone just how much he hated that picture of himself, when it was instantly republished in every single edition for something like ten years - Hislop *really* hates Neill. Fun fact about Pamella Bordes - she lived three doors down (although not at overlapping times) from Antonia De Sancha of David Mellor infamy. Must be something in the water in Chiswick, because Stephen Milligan MP had his deathwank in the next street over. Anyway the lady in the picture is called Sajata Stephane, and she had the misfortune to date Neill for a few months in the late 80s. Now here's a question - how did the London-based little-black-book occupant happen to meet an American makeup artist who worked with many modeling agencies in New York?

I've got the strangest feeling the person going on about being a woman on the land, the husband waiting till the camera's on to square up to the police, and the "JUST BEEN IN THE HOSPITAL DO CPR" performative screaming, might not be the most reliable. Also, you might want to look at that chap's other tweets and reporting and consider his angle; which in rough escalation is that Brexit hasn't caused any problems, Covid is a hoax, and Trump had the election stolen.

Does anyone know anything about something called DiEM25UK Democracy in Europe Movement 2025? A friend invited me to a FB group about it, but I've never heard of them before and am a bit wary just in case they are some sort of undercover fash mob! They don't seem to have a website.
