Police searched That Twat Windsor’s home “using the wrong kind of warrant” Did he realise himself, or did some smartarse (expensive) lawyer? Weird how they can help sex offenders, but I can’t even afford advice about a debt collector harassing me over someone (a dead someone) else’s bills. #R4PM

Let’s hope, because they are real cuties. By coincidence, I just started reading a book set in Northumbria, with the prologue set on a clifftop not too far from Morpeth. Given that it’s about a death metal band and “Old Gods”, though, I’m not expecting many references to local avian life.

The crowd didn’t seem impressed What was their gripe: That #Trump isn’t a paedophile; OR That the paedophile might not give them $5,000, even if he is re-elected, because he is sulking over this?

If you are certain that every reported antisemitic attack stems from antisemitism, I respect your view It is not, though, one I share.

Against this background, with many British people making public show of supporting Israel or Palestine, neither Islam nor Judaism is needed to become a target for hate The Israeli flag is not a symbol of Jewishness but of Zionism Steal diesel and face allegations of being pro-Iran/anti-Israel ⤵️⤵️

There seems to be a concerted effort to discredit people who hold views unacceptable to Israel - Reginald D Hunter being a prime example Pensioners are being locked up after decades of blameless service to others Free speech is under attack, but only speech in support of Palestine

If he had travelled to Brighton and stabbed gay people, would it have been treated the same way? Would he have been considered homophobic, or would it be accepted that his illness made him fear something ‘different’, someone ’other’? ⤵️⤵️

There is always nuance The mentally ill man who stabbed two Jews and a Muslim, for example. The Muslim was his friend and neighbour, so Islamophobia not a likely cause. He then travelled to Golders Green, possibly because it is a majority Jewish area. ⤵️⤵️

… and money to pay for it? Dangerous criminals are extremely expensive to keep locked up Prison staff have a right to protection, just as much as any other worker Since prison costs more than Eton, we could save a fortune by educating criminals and helping them find work.

Jim Fletcher @jimfletcher.bsky.social · 10h

I thought exactly the same. Other nations are fingered instantly, when Brits are caught nicking diesel, or a mentally ill person attacks someone, yet here we have “an unnamed foreign power”

“… the ALLEGED rise in antisemitism”, since it is largely Jewish groups reporting the discrimination, and many complaints don’t stand up to scrutiny.

In two current criminal processes, #R4Today links petty diesel theft and violent attacks by mentally ill people to Iran, without offering evidence The #RoyalNavy person accused of espionage for an “unnamed foreign power”, then, sounds extraordinarily coy Is it #Israel?

Jim Fletcher @jimfletcher.bsky.social · 10h

In itself a condemnation of prison If we lock people up to protect the public, only for them to emerge more dangerous, the snowballing cost will bankrupt us (some might argue it already has) Rehabilitation costs more in the short term, but actually achieves the stated aim of public safety.

I notice it wasn’t even close to topping the poll, but they decided public preferences didn’t count at all. Is this why everything is so expensive these days? Paying for consultation that goes straight in the shredder?

In what other nation is the national health service referred to as “government-run”? Hamas are, whether we like it or not, the elected government in Gaza … as Israel wanted.

Wild how little coverage this has received.. It should be viewed in the context of the BBC all but officially deplatforming the Greens, and the fact that neither the Tories or Reform are competitive. Auntie has failed to provide a public service to the people of Holborn & St Pancras. #r4today

We’ve already started About the UK diplomatic office in East Jerusalem, Palestine, Today reports Gideon Sa’ar saying UK “will not take action against Israel” I do not want my news filtered through Israel. If a UK minister hasn’t said it, it is not our position Unless Burnham serves Israel … ?

Jim Fletcher @jimfletcher.bsky.social · 11h

“Gideon Sa’ar said no action will be taken against #Israel” Excuse me, #R4Today. Why are you reporting a foreign politician making statements about what OUR government will do? If our own ministers have not made a comment, then there is no official position UK is a #sovereign state, not a vassal.

The irony is that people in UK will call for the death penalty, giving the worst criminals a way to avoid decades of suffering, while denying the same right to blameless people.

#R4PM “It’s not one of those ‘foot down and you’re head butting the horizon’ cars”, whatever that means FFS, it has more than 1,000 horsepower If this doesn’t give you a thrill, nothing will. Are you just being lulled into complacency by outstanding suspension?

And ‘we’ will Tory policy will benefit the wealthy, including owners of major media outlets They will report what great prospects ‘we all’ have under a Tory government … and the proles will believe them and vote to become poorer still, while fawning over the royals and that nice Ed Sheeran.

#Netanyahu “could not have known” because #Hamas “only told a handful of people” shows a breathtaking ignorance of espionage … and of the facts, #R4PM Hamas were openly rehearsing the incursion #Israeli guards reported it, and were left to be killed in retribution www.politico.eu/article/isra...

Our warnings on Hamas were ignored, Israel’s women border troops say

Testimony from members of mainly female look-out units adds fuel to accusations that Netanyahu badly misread the dangers from Gaza.

She’s talking about tax cuts for the wealthy, free childcare for wealthy parents, Inheritance Tax breaks for wealthy homeowners, National Insurance cuts for wealthy shareholders, … … and cuts for the poor. Media owners will love it; the ‘papers will be full of it; the poor will vote for it 🤷‍♂️

😂😂 That poor woman. Sorry, “Those poor millions of people, salivating at the prospect of silencing yet another victim of male violence” I don’t think I could be an American, even if I tried It’s easy not to be proud to be British; hardly anyone else is either.

#R4PM broadcasting from the #Tory conference, to the tune of Nimrod from Elgar’s Enigma Variations The real ‘Enigma’ being “How much more can the poor afford to give to the wealthy?” “Nobody should pay #InheritanceTax on their family home”, FFS Nobody does, Kemi They pay it on the other 5/6/7 …

If a guest invited to talk on domestic politics DELIBERATELY mispronounces the name of the Leader of the Opposition, as Peter Hyman did on #R4Today, they should be switched off immediately Badenoch is useless and dangerous, but good manners cost nothing.

Military ‘decentralisation’ means a letter dictated in London can be typed in Edinburgh and posted from Belfast I get a quarterly letter containing two sheets of paper, one of them with my name and address, and the words “This page has been left intentionally blank”

Really? From what I have heard so far (I listen on catch-up) has been justifying a nation killing hundreds of its own citizens to deter another nation (that they insist does not exist) from doing it.

Yet again you stress “two #ginger children” This is only noteworthy because #Palestinians (as a #Semitic race) do not have red hair Yet you never mention that one of the escaped #hostages slaughtered in cold blood by #IDF troops in #Gaza had obvious red hair? Why is that? #Complicity #R4Today
