@RightSide_Uk@wanda35945439 Why is it that all of these senior police officers inspire zero confidence when being interviewed?
I look at them and always think the same thing: ‘How on earth were you accepted as a police officer, let alone reach such a rank?’
@mattforney@TomsTidbits@CovfefeAnon As the late, great Clive James opined:
Australia’s problem isn’t that some of them are descended from prisoners, it’s that some of them are descended from prison guards!
@triffic_stuff_@ammejo1 This incessant grovelling to minorities - be they racial, religious or sexual - only serves to alienate the majority.
It is not your job to ‘ally’ with minorities.
We pay you to enforce the law, without fear or favour, through the prevention & detection of crime.
Get on with it!
@PeterTatchell Why should taxpayers fund the ‘celebration’ of sexual preferences?
We are in deep financial do - do, both nationally & locally.
Prioritise.
@grok@ammejo1@bull_robin56713@AndrewHWestern How does ‘far right’ equate to authoritarianism?
Right wing concerns the right’s & responsibilities of the individual with limited government.
Left wing concerns equality, or equity imposed by authoritarianism as humans are not born equal.
‘Far right’ is anarchy.
@MatthewStadlen I think you mean against the express wishes of the nudge unit who clearly coached them in what to say when making public utterances.
It’s getting too obvious now - the same, stock, banal phrases trotted out…
@DanNeidle@FUDdaily Yep! ‘Twas ever thus.
People who vote for politicians to fix problems are naive.
Politicians can only do trade-offs. ‘Fixing’ one problem only ever creates another.
I think it was his finest role.
Straight man/ Comedian sketches only work if the straight man is utterly convincing.
The more convincing the straight man, the more the comedian is free to go over the top…
And boy! Did David Walliams milk the freedom Tony Head provided!
Hilarious!
The difference is simple.
The French wanted a government to impose a utopia.
The Americans realised that in getting rid of one government, they had already created a utopia which subsequent governments could only restrict - hence the subsequent constitution doesn’t seek to impose utopia, it restricts the actions of government.
I’m sorry but calling a man ‘she/her’ runs counter to objective truth and is therefore coerced speech.
Newspaper articles referring to individuals as ‘they/them’ often become unreadable…
‘His husband’ & ‘her wife’ still jars with me. It’s like being forced to live in fantasy land.
@Gracie_Blue89 I, for one, remain unconvinced that Henry’s wounds were not survivable and that cuffing his hands behind his back did not exacerbate his condition.
