It bears repeating because articles seem to gloss over it, if not miss it out entirely: he has not been convicted of anything. He has only been charged and is being held without trial. Same with the rest of them.

She became famous for having sex with over 1,000 guys in 24 hours.

She also recently got arrested in (I think) Bangladesh for making porn, as it’s illegal over there.

Basically she chases money by being controversial.

Literally taking a page out of Russia, where holding up a sign could get you dragged into a van.

Eventually, it won’t matter what is even on the sign, they’ll just say you’re trying to circumvent the law by holding up a blank sign when “everyone knows what that means”. Just like in Russia.

Samsung is more of a dumpster fire than specifically Zionist.

Yeah I mean if they were actually refuelling Israeli planes this close then I think they would have been called out more directly.

“It’s fine. That pig was dead when he got his hands on it, he didn’t feel any pain.”

Scottish universities are free to all Scottish residents. English students (or students living in other parts of the UK) have to pay a similar rate to other UK universities, and international students pay much more.

Scottish residents going to UK universities outside of Scotland have to pay the same rate as other UK residents. It’s only Scottish universities that are free and only for Scottish residents.

None of this is the “gotcha” you seem to be looking for. Scotland uses its taxes to give free education to Scottish residents. It wouldn’t be reasonable to expect Scotland to provide free education for the whole of the UK, as that is a much larger population than that from which they draw tax revenue.

England has a much larger tax pool (both in absolute magnitude and proportionally to the population) than Scotland, so what really doesn’t make sense is any argument that England can’t afford to pay for the education of English residents, when Scotland apparently can.

“Lies. There’s been too many of them lately.”

That was literally how his campaign video started.

Something tells me you don’t know what narcissism is.

To add to your reminder, they almost certainly used Israeli hacking technology, licensed and approved by the Israeli government as an arms export. Specifically the NSO’s Pegasus toolkit. Jamal Khashoggi’s devices were never recovered, but his wife’s, his lawyer’s, and several of his friends’ devices were examined and found to have been infected.

In 2022 they didn’t have their name anywhere on the building. It does look like there are 7 floors, at least.

This article was clearly written by someone who has no idea how technology works, but knows how to spin up buzzwords.

This is also the man who wrote the law.

Excuses, pathetic excuses. But nothing that shows Palestine Action to be anything other than a Russian asset. In fact, if anything, your hurried response tells tales.

I’m pro-Palestine, but Palestine Action seem pretty dodgy. Between attacking RAF planes (which are most likely used in Ukraine, not Israel) and attacking a manufacturer in Europe that allegedly sells to Israel (destroying equipment bound for Ukraine), the things they do seem to have merely a veil of pro-Palestine while ultimately benefitting Russia. At the very least, I have a real concern that the group has been infiltrated and is influenced by Russia.

I do think they’ve twisted the law somewhat to find something it fits into, but feel that action absolutely needed to be taken against the group. Mainly though this is because “terrorism” is defined as “using violence (or the threat of violence) against civilians in pursuit of a political goal”. Their actions have been against military, not civilians, and thus cannot be terrorism. But treating them as a military threat would be twisted and presented as an even more inappropriate response, even though that’s what they are.

Edit: Lmaooooo all the lemmygrad and hexbear users came out the woodwork, right on cue. As soon as you mention something Russia isn’t doing…

so the Unions are using that to force the government’s hand. Give us what we want or the city suffers.

This is disengenuous when the other side of the argument is “we dictate the terms of your work”. Working isn’t slavery, it’s voluntary, and has to be agreed by both parties. It isn’t “give us what we want or the city suffers”, it’s “give us a fair deal or we stop working”.

I don’t think either approach is working, do you?

In this kind of negotiation nothing “works” until the negotiations are concluded.

Lmao at David Campbell, City of Bradford MDC Biodiversity Officer’s comment, stealing her thunder right at the top:

The Planning and Infrastructure Bill very much sits in the space Attenborough was aiming at when he said “We have a finite environment—the planet. Anyone who thinks that you can have infinite growth in a finite environment is either a madman or an economist.”

The reason Attenborough et al are screening it for these politicians is because they’re doing things wrong.

is labouring under about £20bn of debt and is running out of cash.

Claw back the money from investor dividends and management bonuses then.

Aaron Banks (now currently a Reform politican, thankfully he didn’t win a seat) and Cambridge Analytica wrangled the vote with illegal campaign spending and manipulation through targeted Facebook advertising (you can tell whatever lies you like if you only tell them to people who don’t question) in 2016. Then they assisted Trump in his 2016 election. Then Cambridge Analytica was disbanded, but the same people were in the background in the 2019 UK election, and again in the 2024 US election. It’s all the same backers, employing the same tactics both sides of the pond - like how they accused Jeremy Corbyn of antisemitism, then shortly afterwards tried to pull the same stunt on Bernie Sanders.

Butbutbut the tankies told me that Foundations of Geopolitics was written by a crackpot and it didn’t hold any weight with Putin and the Russian government??
