If you think petty theft deserves hanging that's more a you thing I'm afraid. I've been mugged and my worst desire was that they get a longer sentence.

Wasn't the popular rumour that the main reason the Daily Mail was surprisingly sympathetic to Stephen Lawrence's death and to his family was because Lawrence's father had done some interior decorating for Paul Dacre?

Yeah, exactly that. Which was shockingly progressive given Dacre's general view on ethnic minorities. Or any minorities really.

I'd hazard a guess that nursing and social care workers predominantly fall below that threshold.

The building trade as well (those that actually declare their earnings).

Yeah I hadn't really thought about the enormity of the number of sectors affected. Had terminal tech sector tunnel vision where beating 38k is easy, but only for like, ASIC design.

All the problems are down to immigrants according to Turning Point, and it's also down to people voting for Labour, because look at the mess Corbyn's made of our country over the past 13 years.

No idea what it's from and fully expect that character to get milkshake ducked, but it does summarise a huge problem with most centrist journalism.

Congratulations to Rishi for being so utterly grim and pathetic that he’s managed to knock Boris being hauled over the coals off the top spot on the news

don't forget that the media is, almost to a person, dedicated to sucking bojo's dick and that's the whole reason he was prime minister and helped him win in 2019

his cuntiness dropping out of the news is not necessarily organic

It is fair to think Linehan should be ignored, but at the same time making AI porn of your critic is not the harmless screaming of a lunatic; it will palpably have an effect on the intended target.

I never understood how women like that can marry men like that but one time I helped a woman carry a man too bladdered to stand to a taxi and to his home so he could go to bed, and on the journey learned from the woman, a friend of his wife, that he's a far-right piece of poo poo who won't talk to women unless forced to and is married to a disabled wife so he drinks because he can't stand remembering he's married to someone who got 'crippled.'

When I dragged his hateful arse into the house and took him to his bed I met said wife who couldn't have been nicer and more friendly.



When I got back to the pub I was given a free pint on the house for helping a man in need and buddy you didn't need to give it to me for free that was so loving depressing I needed every pint I could get.

It looks like izzard tweeted or otherwise said Nazis murdered trans people so guess who popped up to make a dig which was only anti Semitic if you're basically never allowed to mention the war. And she retweeted that. She was being transphobic but not anti Semitic so... Well bye.

Oh well I just remember that the issue was that what she said was seen as insensitive to the plight of those killed in the holocaust, so I guess it's only slightly less awful about the holocaust.
