I hate the practice of using "that" rather than "who" to refer to people. Petty, stupid, bollocks post for you all.

If anyone is struggling to understand how our media and politicians are still talking about an RAF Fairford "bomb plot" when there were no bombs found, then the Forest Gate raid in 2006 is a useful comparison en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forest_...

Photo taken by Netpol's campaigns coordinator in 2006 of the end of Lansdown Rd in Forest Gate, closed by police after a "bomb plot" terrorism raid led to the sealing off of the area for a week. One man was shot but fortunately survived – there was no bomb factory, yet the Kahar family were smeared by the media for weeks

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

Who was it that spent decades angrily and relentlessly telling these idiots that they are the hardest working people on Earth, and that secret communists are giving immigrants “everything”? Was it Russian Facebook

A) 70/80 hour weeks? Right. When are you working on air con? 9 at night?
B) NHS, free education, welfare system, bin collections, roads, wider state services.
Go fuck yourself Dave 3/3
Gosport local Dave Palmer, 43, was among the protesters. "We don't want them in the country at all. They get given everything. I work 70 to 80-hour weeks as an air-conditioning engineer. What does the government give me? Nothing," he said.

The next paragraph says that amazingly, 8 out of 10 people who think they have ADHD, who look for a diagnosis, turn out to have ADHD. I, I don't know why that's a surprise? I don't think I have ADHD so I wouldn't look for a diagnosis? You'll only look for one if you think you have ADHD so 🤷‍♀️

Family doctors estimated that more than eight in 10 patients referred for specialist assessments ultimately received an ADHD diagnosis.

The BBC’s Ratcliffe interview is shocking. He’s allowed to spout unchallenged nonsense about politics, economics and energy. Ratcliffe is worth listening to because he represents an emboldened and retrograde section of Britain’s ruling class 🧵 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

We’re asking our supporters across the UK to write to the Chief Commissioner of NHS Wales ahead of Tuesday, to demand that surgery is reinstated immediately while the investigation goes ahead, and to issue a formal apology for making such an irresponsible decision.

Text reads: Update on NHS Wales decision to pause gender affirming surgery. The NHS Wales Joint Commissioning Committee (NWJCC) will meet on Tuesday 22nd September to discuss the unprecedented cancellation of all transition-related surgeries and surgical assessments for adults referred via the Welsh Gender Service (WGS).
