Maybe stick a note on your door saying you have a lost mobile, if you keep it charged then they should be able to use the geolocation to see where it is.

Couple of really good quotes in the headline Graun article:quote:[Sunak] blamed Labour … for the delay quote:The Foreign Office minister Andrew Mitchell … claimed Rwanda’s capital, Kigali, was safer than London.

I saw some research that showed that politicians going full bore on anti 'woke' headlines was actually more likely to result in fewer votes as the public is just sick of it. Which was quite nice to see.

I fear young Gideon’s gambit of going beyond Jermey Crebbins and lefties and trying to prove that every single person in the country is an anti-Semite has gone a wee bit too far even for the most cretinous and credulous politicians and journalists.

From what I understand you can only really fillibuster private members bills because of their scheduling method which doesn't have time limits on discussion so you can just endlessly debate the first one and never let the subsequent bills come up for a vote. I don't think you can normally do the same thing for a government bill, though I might be dead wrong here.

He is being helped by the reporting 'forgetting' to mention he went out with a camera crew, security and an assistant although that is changing today. Effectively the met used the law Suella put in to bar people who are clearly there to antagonise which is also funny. And again a reason Rishi has suddenly rowed back by saying the chief of the met has good full confidence.

If they really gave a poo poo about antisemitism they'd be after the twats who are actually doing it, not the public figures they like to pretend are doing it.

Jaeluni Asjil posted:We're not allowed to say "boffin" anymore From my experience of upper school in the 00s the term was used in the same manner as teacher's pet. I never really held onto that as being insulting after that but can see how it could hold only negative connotations to younger nerdlingers.

Bobby Deluxe posted:I think the opposite it true, I think there are a ton of casual (and a not insignificant number of non casual) antisemites out in the general population, which is what makes it weird that The Antisemitism Understanders have created this imaginary version of Corbyn and attacked that instead. I forget which thread I was reading on twitter earlier but it was full of genuine antisemitism. When you see it in all its glory it's quite horrifying. Also & unrelated: I see we've moved on from 'flat screen tvs' and it's now '50" tvs' that are the cause of all society's woes. Jaeluni Asjil fucked around with this message at 13:57 on Apr 22, 2024 |

The entire thread is a wild back and forth between sex arses, racial slurs, legalize cannabis and scrap BST, deport every Albanian on buses, SLI/ESP, casual misogyny... There needs to be at least two of them so that one can be amazing and the other can join Reform.

Someone in the replies made the valid point that these exercises start with the assumption that most people do not want to be bigoted and slip up because they don't know all the ways that they might be. They don't work on people who have chosen the other route. So yeah GCs etc. should be more outspoken in the workplace if it's the fastest way to get them to leave.

I do hate checking boxes. But compared to data security, AI ethics, and many other training courses that are not entirely relevant to my work, DEI courses are usually by far the least boring and mercifully take less time to complete.

On one hand, he claims to be related to Keir Starmer and his family. On the other hand, he can't spell kier. On the third hand, neither can many other people. On the fourth hand, the rest of his posts imply that he may be some kind of fantasist. But on the fifth hand, what kind of fantasist pretends to be related to Keir Starmer before he was even anything of note? (The last three hands are all sex toys)
