Google Jeb Bush posted:I've never been entirely sure why there wasn't a major moral panic around Hitman I have to hand it to IO. They realized very early on with Hitman that you had to make all the targets gangsters or 1% members of the Illuminati. Otherwise your briefing would end up as "Good morning 47. Your targets are four witnesses who are going to testify against the Gambino crime family."

Starmer isn't Cameron in a red tie, that's ridiculous. Cameron hosed a pig gleefully to get into a dinner club. Starmer would do it regretfully on national television like in the tv show just to prove he's got what it takes to run the country.

I think it must be taken from the west end at the car park and then flipped and he's pointing at the tower. Presumably so he doesn't have to go to the busy bit and actually meet anybody. E: yeah I think from the looks of it rather than going to the actual town part he's pulled up in the car park on the right here and took a photo. Cos all of the bits in the actual town have the new sea wall.

One of the most satisfying things of soligarity Lineker gate, was watching starmer and Co show they are so fundamentally out of touch with everything. It's like they are still being run by a 90s think tank.. you've got to appeal to your slightly racist football loving carling drinking working class stereotype. But instead of understanding the reasons and fears and day to day life situations of a stereotype that barely exists, this has become their actual ideology instead.

I thought 'Redcar' as well but there's no metal fence at that end of the promenade past where the Mungle Jungle was, it's all a low stone wall you can walk along. I'm guessing somewhere just North of the Tees. Fake edit, looking at the shadow shapes of the beach access ramp wall posts here vs the background of the Starmer pic and the iron fence showing up in the street view , it's 99% Seaton Carew: https://maps.app.goo.gl/DkiKENPKVSgRaeD28

Ah yeah you are probably right, you can see saltburn cliff in the distance and the south gare. Weird that you can see the turbines though, I figured they would be closer to the shore from that point of view. I should go to seaton again sometime, haven't been since I was a kid.

I don't think it would be good if someone killed Starmer. It would be blamed on Corbynists even if - perhaps particularly if - the killer shouted "Sieg Heil" as he did the deed and proclaimed his love for Hitler, Johnson and Farage in court.

I've been reading some of the #itwasascam posts on twitter and I can't believe how naive I was. not long after Corbyn was ousted I thought that he could have gotten past it if he had fought more but there was nothing he could have done, the campaign against him was so complete.

The older stuff was very unpleasant though- I’m glad they did the massive reboot and got rid of the uncomfortable amount of sex trafficking storylines. Goldskull posted:It's a pity the can designs I did for a Highgate craft brewery a few years back never came to fruition, as after the first Session IPA was done they were all for doing Ghost Chicken as the next beer name. Then the owner decided to cheap the gently caress out of it, & went with a graphics student who worked for peanuts. Good job on the Werewolf branding! Big fan and Rich and the crew are a fun bunch. Do you still have the can designs for Highgate? I’d love to see them. Red Oktober fucked around with this message at 14:55 on Mar 17, 2023 |

Hmm. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/mar/17/nhs-doctors-recruit-colleagues-private-hospitals-hca-healthcare Anyone in British politics connected to HCA? 20 seconds on Google tells me, Lord Hollick. Has he given large sums of money to any politicians whom you might think from their ostensible left-wing affiliation would be opposed to the growth of private healthcare at the expense of the NHS? Why yes, yes he has! (For those who don't want to click on the link: it's exactly who you'd think.)
