Talking of Mordaunts... https://northeastbylines.co.uk/from-bulwark-to-albion-penny-mordaunts-naval-service/ quote:In her previous recent attempt to become PM, Penny Mordaunt talked a good deal about her past naval service as a qualification for high office. As this article records, Mordaunt allowed claims to be made about her that she had taken command of a naval vessel, actively served (while a minister) on another, and “helped to train Ukrainian forces during her time with the Royal Navy Reserve”. None of these claims were true.

Soylent Yellow posted:Cereal toy chat: I used to prefer the cereals where you sent tokens off for a toy. The toys were generally better, there was no fighting over who got the toy from the cereal packet, and you only got them if you actually wanted them. I used to have an entire set of land speed record toy cars. holy gently caress I remember these, don't think I had the full set but definitely had a mini Thrust 2 and the long thin one that was basically a rocket on its side

Again, they almost definitely have to do this as part of a style guide relating to, in the eyes of the UK government, legitimate nation states versus terrorist groups. It doesn't make it right.

I'm always surprised he didn't go the whole hog and call himself Tommy Atkins. I suppose even his ardent followers might have noticed that one as a step too far.

Other things include walking down the street drinking a glass of tea. Genuinely binned off cereal (and breakfast in general for about 10 years) and then woke up one day desperate for a bowl of cheerios. Never looked back

I like the bland, cheap Tesco muesli; add a banana, honey and yogurt for a nice breakfast or simmer it in a pot with mushrooms, sweetcorn, chicken + stock cube for a savory gruel supper.... some days i just want to lazy cook.

kecske posted:The BBC recently ran something about a woman released from an israeli prison and she talked a bit in arabic about her experience without once mentioning Hamas, but the english subtitles said "i love Hamas" or something lol. real poo poo I mean that's just outright lying. Even the worst excesses of Corbyn's assassination just misrepresented photos, interpreted every statement via the harshest prejudice possible, and imagined what he might do through the same lens. But that is someone somewhere along the chain of translation who hates the people onscreen, and wants to make them look like terrorist sympathisers instead of victims by making poo poo up they never said. Things like this increasingly make me feel dumb and insane though, because how does the average person know which translation is correct? How do I know that tweet is from a reputable account? How can you know where the video came from, or who the person on it is? Everything is in doubt, unless you have a level of media expertise most people just don't have access to. Essentially a lot of this comes down to the people reading it trusting it whether it fits with their vibe of the situation, and unfortunately lies like this are only going to strengthen this idea prevalent across the media that Palestinians are all Hamas sympathisers. gently caress, that's grim.
