Good to see those coronavirus patients apparently doing a tour of the north. York, Hull, Newcastle. Intimate set at Pocklington arts centre tonight then on to a sold-out O2 academy tomorrow, I suppose. Well quarantined, good effort, we're all going to die.
Is this type of quite radical, very right wing, highly ideological crankery really popular with the public? I would say no, it isn’t. How come the relevant government bodies are absolutely stacked with wingnuts, then? Well, it would appear there has been significant shenanigans.
between this and the spyware shit, like… we properly do live in hell. can we suspend basically all political division until we’ve dealt with this shit? like we can all batter fuck out of each other afterwards i don’t mind, just as long as we destroy the panopticon first.
There’s no point appealing for an end to “division” when you’ve made it very clear your pledge to “end the culture wars” meant “by joining with the crackpot right to smash fuck out of various uppity minorities and the left”. *You are* the division, it is you whom is divisive.
@mypalfootfoot7 Prepared to give Keir the benefit of the doubt and assume he’s holding off until de facto Home Secretary Tommy Robinson gets back from his Russia trip. No point having meetings without your key decision makers in attendance.
@fuckyouiquit@GOP__Ls@srothbell Yup. All the shit that happened before this; that people said looked a bit like fascism and were told not to be so dramatic and to moderate their language because it was impolite to call people you disagree with bad names; all that shit was the ‘steps toward’.
@wariotifo Very nice. To further confuse and invoke panic in the already bewildered invading American forces, defenders pelted them with adapted lyrics from obscure English bands until they eventually withdrew, utterly defeated.
It is IMO not great, how politicians and media figures routinely unify to disastrously fuck over the public for their own benefit, and then come back ten years later to present their utterly cynical malfeasance as jolly British knockabout larks and LOL what are we like?
@RuudBullet_@JackMillar101 Almost unprecedented levels of “These days” on here today. I’ve already been arrested for singing Jerusalem, having unregistered kitchen knives, and driving to a shop 16 minutes from my house. Be very lucky to avoid one of the Keir Starmer Marxist reeducation camps at this rate.
@wontwobadsoup@aceplym Yeah. Worth considering a sort of Occam’s razor option that the coppers probably *are* at least a bit institutionally racist and also at the same time don’t give much of a fuck about us generally regardless of specific prejudices. more likely than some anti-white woke conspiracy.
@apesahoy@Mudkipstoat23 Obviously this is Keir so the cow more or less backed into him accidentally while he was holding a banjo someone had just handed to him.
@lesthecroc They’ve got the psychological block of seeing that geezer get double-bricked by his own mob in the last Farage riots, replayed over and over again, they’re always looking over their shoulders. Can’t play with any freedom or creativity in that state.
Consider: would you like to explain to a roomful of strangers who have read headlines about what Peter Mandelson did with his personal clout, why you think he was skilled and impressive in politics? If the answer is “No, I don’t fancy doing that”, then let’s think about why.
