Private Speech posted:Going by Wikipedia but she really doesn't seem to have done much of note: I just don't care how unqualified she is. So what? It's the House of Lords, 25 cunts sit in there because they are high ranking in the Church of England, a church with "According to a study published by the Journal of Anglican Studies...approximately 1.7 million active baptised members", & it's closer to 1.1 million if you get to those who bother to turn up in church as little as once a month. Or in other words under 2% of the population of the United Kingdom. 92 of them are in there because their great x7 grandad was hunting buds with Charles II. Or in the case of the Duke of Norfolk, friend of Richard III. And that's without touching upon the calibre of Life Peers, a motley mix of failed MPs, party donors & twats: Ian Blair, former Met Commissioner, Lord Falconer, Tony Blair's uni flat mate, so on, so forth. Lord Webber of Weston Super Mare of course. At least this fail forward grifter isn't old enough to remember World War 2.

Just realised that with Johnson quitting, Trump being indicted and Berlusconi carking it, it's the right-wing populist shithead leader version of Marry, gently caress, Kill.

Diet Crack posted:lol how is that not Boris' spawn, look at the nose and jaw There is a genuine family resemblance, but does also look like someone who he'd gently caress. I guess we'll never know, until the twitter meltdown and/or tell-all memoir written with Isabelle Oakeshott.

Can't be sacked as an MP, can't resign as an MP, can't be an MP while holding a royal office, so they have to be granted a royal office. The other option would be imprisoning them for over a year and a day, but that was even less popular.

kingturnip posted:She looks like his mum and his sister. We are currently looking after my gran-in-law's tortoise, and it basically spends all day trying to gently caress a rolled up bit of towel. If we forget to put it out he rams into every door and wall and tries to bite our feet until we do. Once he's had enough, he goes back into his box to sleep. I feel like if someone had just given Boris the human equivalent of a rolled-up bit of towel, a lot of the last few years political poo poo could have been avoided.

Shyrka posted:I have a softer spot for people that remember World War 2 more than those born in the 50s that insist they lived through the Blitz and use it to justify all manner of hardship inflicted on others in the 21st century. I drove past the gates of RAF Scampton today, and every fence, signpost and gate on the A15 is festooned with signs and placards raging about the immigration centre proposed for the site and the people who will be placed within. It occurred to me how that issue is like at the intersection of all the British Culture War ley lines, like some sort of gammony Stonehenge. You've got the WW2 Historic Military Base, Home of The Dambusters (which everyone born 1950-1965 treats as if they were comrades in arms). It's got the grave of the dog named after a racial slur Which You Can't Even Put In the Film These Days. It's got the plan to convert those hallowed buildings into an asylum centre. To house people who came here on Small Boats. It's in the middle of one of the most Brexit-voting areas of the country and people are flailing at the lack of Taking Back Control. The original redevelopment plan reeked of Boris-era corruption. And so on.

But if they have to ratify the appointment through parliament, at the rate we're going that might still bottleneck the process. The rate of fire(ing) of the legislature is not normally something that is a concern but I feel like our unique stock and process might make it one.

Woman jailed for double the usual sentence for violent offenders for terminating a pregnancy, under the still existent 1861 law, and a reminder that the only authority to even slightly modernize abortion care law in England and Wales since Gillick v West Norfolk in 1985 has been Boris Johnson. I hope some pressure for legal reform comes out of this. I also hope that people notice the ringing silence of the terf faction on the issue.

There also was a Graun article: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/jun/12/woman-in-uk-jailed-for-28-months-over-taking-abortion-pills-after-legal-time-limit This judge does seem to have an axe to grind: quote:The judge said there were no sentencing guidelines for the offence, but that the maximum sentence was life imprisonment.
