The TL;DW from all this Cummings chat is basically "The covid response was a disaster because everyone involved was an incompetent idiot engaged in groupthink" with no sense of self awareness what so ever in that he sacked the entire cabinet about 2 months prior and replaced them with incompetent idiots engaged in GET BRXIT DONE groupthink

Like, even though I know what he's saying here is about some really important fundamental failures of the government, he's so unengaging that I just completely switch off when he's talking.

e: not the right tweet, obviously.

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/may/26/hillsborough-why-has-the-trial-collapsed-and-what-happens-next

quote:

Why has the trial been stopped?
Two ex-South Yorkshire police officers, Ch Supt Donald Denton and DCI Alan Foster, and the force’s then solicitor Peter Metcalf had been charged with perverting the course of public justice, for their roles in amending 68 police officers’ statements after the Hillsborough disaster.

The trial judge, Mr Justice William Davis, ruled that the offence could not have been committed, because the amendments were to prepare police statements for the public inquiry, chaired by Lord Justice Taylor. That was a non-statutory inquiry, which Davis described to the jury as “an administrative exercise”, not a “course of public justice”.

So even if the amendments meant the South Yorkshire police withheld important evidence from the Taylor inquiry, that could not constitute perverting the course of justice.

I'm not a British lawyer, so I may be missing something, but this is such bad reasoning that it blows my mind.

“If you don't get what you want, you suffer; if you get what you don't want, you suffer; even when you get exactly what you want, you still suffer because you can't hold on to it forever. Your mind is your predicament. It wants to be free of change. Free of pain, free of the obligations of life and death. But change is law and no amount of pretending will alter that reality.”

Interesting tidbit today from Twitter: whenever Boris is asked to deny something he can't deny at PMQs he forcefully shakes his head while Starmer is asking the question, before getting up and not denying it.

If the BBC then chooses to air the question being asked, they obligingly cut to him shaking his head and then simply don't broadcast his answer. So the public is left with the impression he denied it without him actually doing so.

New Fudge Alert!

So, just in time for the bank holiday, I’m excited to announce a new Fudge Drop!

We’ve got a selection of delicious flavours up for sale, including a couple of brand new ones! (And I’ll admit to being particularly proud of them both)

New releases:

Original Vanilla
Lemon Meringue Pie
Nibblez
Chocolate Orange
- making its long anticipated return in an improved form!
Peanut Butter Crunch
- Smooth peanut butter and a frankly ludicrous quantity of chopped honey roasted peanuts combine to make a crunchy, sweet, salty and nutty treat!
Coconut Macaroon - Using the dark arts of Fudge Science, we’ve managed to recreate the flavour of this delicious traditional treat in fudge form! A must-try!

All stock is now live and for sale at www.Fudjit.co.uk :)

Also, we will be trading in person at the LarpCon Kit Fair in Coalville, Leicestershire on the weekend of the 5th and 6th of June. If you’re in the area and want to pick up some special deals on fudge (and also see a load of other awesome traders), check out the event page on Facebook and come by! It’s an event being run under Covid-safe guidelines with safety at the forefront.

And if you drop by, do the ‘Stairs’ thing for extra special goon only deals!

Cheers all! Happy fudging!

This according to email received from a fudge provider whose marketing list I have been on for a decade since buying some fudge off them about 10 years ago (but not since!)

Afraid those were leftover stock from earlier in the month, so there were only a few of each.

I will however be making more in the coming week of each of those, and they’ll be up on the website after the convention :)

like I'm not even particularly bothered by the stupid charade of not actually admitting something that by he is confirming to be true by not denying it

I guess it's slightly better for him to have the headline be "is a slimy oval office who has done unspecified drugs and won't admit it" than "did a bunch of coke while he was putting people in prison for doing coke" or "starmer exposed as liar after TV drugs denial" when someone comes forwards

it's the loving combination of the putting people in prison for drugs (which we already knew about obviously) with the hypocrisy of him blatantly having done something that he has ruined hundreds of lives over, which he clearly feels no remorse about because even now he insists more criminalisation is the answer
