Cop run LGBT/BAME/etc outreaches are the yellow unions of the community order world, but in a similar way their one good use is sieving out people who are ideologically opposed to the idea of any sort of gay/black/worker rights from people who are opposed to the specific structure.

e.g. Rowling

Just went to check to see if she's said anything at all about the biological threats to sex based reproductive health from the abortion amendment if it isn't read and passed. Nope, banging on about detransitioners instead.

I think Putin is the new Hitler. Corbyn is the old Hitler. I'm not sure what Hitler is. Maybe the new Puitin.

What's stopping him? There's clearly not a No Cunts sign at the border.

I guess he'll go and tell the people of Ukraine that British people pre-Brexit were just like them, yearning for freedom from the hateful hated EU (we hates it, precious), to a people that seem to support VZ applying to join the EU. Then he'll run for president of Ukraine.

I read a bit from Antony Beevor's book about D-Day last night, about 7 or 8 days after the invasion started Churchill visited the beachhead with Eisenhower. When getting ready to make the trip back to England Churchill spotted a destroyer about to start a naval bombardment mission, got really excited, and insisted that he be allowed to stand on the deck so he could 'join in'. I think that's probably about as close as he got during WWII.

Churchill was a piece of poo poo but he did serve in the military and did see combat. So trying to put him across as hiding from the war is a bit odd.

He even got stuck in himself putting down the locals in India.

And johnson caught covid but his failure to die from it has not made him any more qualified to empathise with the people he made sure did. It remains far easier to expect other people to do things you didn't do.

it's somehow even more deranged than the headline

quote:

Asked what the point of going in person would be, Dowden said: “Well I think it’s both to see what’s going on the ground – because it’s very different talking to somebody on the phone versus actually seeing it in practice, and by the way, I should say that no decisions have been taken in relation to this – but then secondly, it’s actually to experience what is happening there, to see what is happening. To the people on the ground. I think that is very different to just speaking remotely.”

If he wants to get blown up and then rule from beyond the grave via daily express dianaphone that's fine by me, would probably be a net improvement.

He can even stand for the next election and then starmer can lose to about 30% of boris johnson's remaining pieces in a heap with a rosette attached.

The rosette will be redder than Starmer, so I might not even complain.

Also a lieutenant-colonel for a bit in the middle of WW1 (and at the front, not a cushy staff job). Whatever else you can say about the man, he was willing to get shot at.

Which come to think about it is probably what poundshop Churchill here is trying to emulate, only I suspect without the actually getting shot at.

Probably the most positive thing you can say about Churchill was that he was one of those very uniquely psychotic British aristocrats determined to die in service of the Empire.
