My experience under Labour was shortly after they introduced the work capability assessments and hired ATOS to conduct them. At the time, I was in a long waiting queue for a neurology appointment, and thought that the ATOS assessment was a genuine medical assessment and would help me get treatment. The assessor was in a white coat, and I genuinely thought I was seeing a doctor.

He took my walking stick away, telling me I didn't need it, and got me to walk to the other side of the room and back.

I was denied disability benefits at a time when my illness had pretty much crippled me, and I eventually ended up in a homeless hostel (and given a top floor room when I struggled to climb stairs). I was only given this accommodation as I'd appealed the DWP decision and was waiting for my tribunal date. If I had lost my tribunal, I would have been given 24 hours notice to leave the hostel.

I thankfully won the tribunal in this timeline, but it could have very easily gone the other way.

So, New Labour wanted to kill me. They tried to kill me. They drew up and implemented a system that is designed to kill people like me, and has since killed tens of thousands of people like me - some of those being friends of mine.

Labour also drew up the blueprint for what eventually became Universal Credit.

Just because the Tories sped up the implementation of the social murders, it doesn't mean that New Labour had any different plans for people like myself.

He literally believes that Covid doesn't exist, and that it's all a big government conspiracy. Even after being hospitalised with covid, he's still a covid denialist, and he's still spreading his bullshit beliefs to his followers.

The article you linked to had no proven facts, just conjecture. The 'escaped from a lab' theory hasn't gone anywhere because nobody has provided any evidence that it has escaped from a lab, and all the evidence indicates it originated in the wild.

People aren't engaging with you because you haven't brought anything to the table other than <waving of hands> <pointing at right wing conspiracy nonsense> and <waaah why is everyone mocking me?>

You are being mocked and told to gently caress off for good reason.

HTH OP.

Anyone received a witness citation before? I just received a text saying I'll be getting a letter. Have a good idea what it's about and don't particularly have any interest in being a witness, but far as I am aware you have to go, don't you?

Yeah, you have to attend, or you can risk having a warrant issued for your arrest.

The one picture that I know about, and the one she tweeted, was of him when he was 45 and working at Fox News. The 'teenage girl' he has his arm around was 10 years younger and a fellow work colleague. They openly dated for a couple of years.

Seem to remember her very specifically @ing him, with a screenshot of the black book with his name in it, saying something about what he got up to on Epstein's plane, the implication being very clear

Honestly it sounds like a pretty clear-cut case to me

Exactly this ^^^

This is what she posted:



I hate having to defend someone like Andrew Neil, but he's in the right here. Not everyone in that little black book were child abusers, as it contained contact details of nearly every influential person - including Andrew Neil. She made a clear implication, and I hope he takes her to the loving cleaners. lol

This started with a now deleted Eurostar tweet. That tweet was then reported in the Times, Express, Mail and other papers, and now this updated .gov webpage

https://twitter.com/NicBoothby/status/1476562050788831236

But still there's been no confirmation from the French side. No announcements, no updated web pages and no people reporting being stopped. I'm really wondering if this is some sort of 'hate the French' propaganda to direct the anger for when things really start to gently caress up after the Jan 1st import/export regulations kick in?....

Nah, it's not uncommon to be symptomatic for awhile before popping positive.

I've seen 3 friends on my feed say that they tested negative for 5-6 days before eventually testing positive on a LFT or PCR. My theory is that there are a lot of lovely fake/faulty LFT kits in circulation, as there are no checks and balances in place, apart from cheques being sent to Tory donors to help with their personal balances.

On the subject of LFT's

Brexit: UK food imports face disruption because ‘medieval’ government IT system not ready for red tape

quote:

Food supplies face further disruption from 1 January due to a "medieval" government IT system that is still not yet ready to process post-Brexit paperwork, The Independent has learned.

Companies importing food from the EU must comply with reams of additional red tape from Saturday but, with just hours to go, it was still not possible for some traders to submit vital details of their cargo because government software is plagued by technical bugs.

Problems primarily affect shipments of fruit, vegetables and plants, with importers also experiencing difficulty logging details of animal products.

The government said it was aware of the issue but had not yet established a workaround, meaning that tens of thousands of importers cannot be sure that they are able to submit required forms for food imports.

It comes at the worst time for the UK, which imports half of all of its food during the winter months, mostly from the EU. The country is particularly dependent on EU imports of fresh fruit and vegetables, with around 90 per cent of lettuces and 85 per cent of tomatoes shipped in from across the Channel.
