@Con_Tomlinson Following the very sad news about Connor Tomlinson (@Con_Tomlinson) thoughts naturally turn to his legacy. But wrapped up in this question is a literary mystery as fascinating as Tomlinson himself. A thread π§΅
@TraffeCone@smerkinkones@MrJamesMay A troon walked into a bar and asks for a pint of bitter. "Β£9 please" says the barman.
"We don't get many troons in here" the barman adds.
The troon replies: "At Β£9 for a Timothy Taylor I'm not fucking suprised"
@Txra8@left_af@DrDStarkeyCBE@maggie_lavan You have made the first part up. As to the second part, they conducted an incompetent investigation that resulted in the killers getting off, but the killers didn't remain at the scene so it was completely different to the Nowak case.
@Txra8@left_af@DrDStarkeyCBE@maggie_lavan I dismissed it because it was a lie. Lawrence was stabbed at abt 10:38, Brooks ran to a phonebox to call an ambulance, an off-duty police officer stopped his car & comforted Lawrence whilst waiting for the ambulance. He arrived at hospital at 11:05 already dead.
@JonathanPieNews I've been paying tax my entire life so that one day a Filipina staff nurse might shove a digit right in my hairy arsehole, & now Two Tier Kier is saying that's only for Leeroy & Denzil. I'm not racist, I just think everyone should get it once in their lives without having to pay.
@Nom_de_plume@AaronBastani During the tuition fees protests he instigated a riot of middle class students who smashed up a HSBC. He rammed a HSBC branch (with the terrified staff inside) with a large commericial wheelie bin.
@bindelj Yes but she was prepared to say "black lives matter" in 2020 about the killing of George Floyd, and she has picked a fight with Farage over saying "white lives matter" in relation to Henry Nowak, so she should explain what she thinks the difference is.
@iagos_monster@ZambeziOutpost@KevinASchofield It's not a matter of your opinion. Badenoch literally said "black lives do matter" in 2020 when she was a Minister of State in a Conservative Government.
@GoldBug2000@euanmccolm No, in 2020 she said "black lives do matter", but condemned the organisation BLM. She was therefore prepared to say "black lives matter" in 2020, but not "white lives matter" in 2026. She needs to explain the apparent contradiction.
@whatsbrewing555@KevinASchofield I don't particularly care what it does to her favourability ratings (which are meaningless given that all that matters how her party is polling).
@left_af@DrDStarkeyCBE@maggie_lavan Can you name a single instance of a black or brown person being treated like this by the police? We had to import one from Minnesota because of failure of domestic supply. Remember Stephen Lawrence was helped by a passing off-duty copper, not cuffed and disbelieved by him.
