So the Tories have finally worked out a way to solve the issue of 1200+ people dying a week: by not telling people who many people are dying a week
He's a QPR supporter who has lived in Earl's Court, Notting Hill, Kensington and Mayfair. He's the MP for Surrey Heath, where the average house price is about half a million. He works for the former Mayor of London. This is just more Trumpist bullshit.
I don't disagree. I do wonder why exactly the hounds came out for Whoopi Goldberg--who, I should add, is not a celebrity I like particularly. I'm not sure, exactly, but it bugs me that there were so many ready to comment so negatively on words which to me were not worth noticing and not badly motivated. Below are some more or less poorly thought out suggestions. 1. People are quick to jump on those of African descent for trying to say anything meaningful about the Shoah. 2. People are quick to jump on goys for saying anything about the Shoah. 3. People are quick to join any group hate, however flimsy the pretext. 4. Race is an urban, rural and suburban myth originally spread by the Greeks and used ever since to justify inhumanity. Race is indefinable, unscientific nonsense. Because many believe in it, like Santa Claus, doesn't make it true. Therefore, anyone who brings race into the conversation is both talking nonsense and liable to step in it, bigtime. The most pernicious example, to me, is to accuse others of racism. The fact is that the vast majority of modern people are racist. We mentally divide people into races. If you ask me to describe someone I saw walking down the street, my first words are liable to be "Black guy." Note my racist classification precedes even gender. If you divide people into races, you're a racist. That's what racist means. So unless you're one of the relatively few who doesn't do that, there's no sense in calling out someone else for doing the same thing. (What you mean, no doubt, is that someone else has used a racial slur, or displayed prejudicial behavior or hate speech.) My conclusion is that whatever the explanation, it's gotten to the point where large areas of public discourse are being short-circuited by people ready to join in on a group hate on the vulnerable. That's unfortunate from the POV of public discourse, and, worse, gets a lot of votes for Republicans. I wish everyone would take a deep breath and stand down from justifying Republican talking points.

It is certainly viable for the Mayor of London to get shot of her, considering the only reason Cressida Dick is in her position is because the Mayor of London kept pushing for Ian Blair to be removed Go ahead, guess who the Mayor of London who did that just so happened to be...
It is painful reading the omnishambles of mismanagement and lies. And that's only the last few days! Yet to read most news media and random voxpop from 'Red Wall' morons, you'd think everything was just fine!
