Thats the best stance with Johnson, take everything he says as a lie and the dissapointment doesnt seem so bad
Another one for the big bonfire when the plebs finally rise up. I won’t call him a nonce as I wouldn’t wish to cross a line.
He has kinda got a point, albeit from a pro Tory point of view. People are, and should be more concerned about Crime, fuel bills, COVID **** ups and Tory UTurns on policy (Still can’t work out why the opposition aren’t making more of that). However if PartyGate does really become Johnson’s ‘Al Capone’ moment…then **** it. It’s a means to an end to get rid of the bucket of filth so you outraged Libs carry on
The timekeeping is really **** in the championship. It should've been seven minutes but he was rubbish all night. I haven't a clue who he was but he was just another **** ref. The thing is, is that I don't want to hate the refs. They really don't help themselves. ****s!
Now Adele's a transphobe What on earth has happened to people Adele accused of transphobia over 'woman' speech after gender-neutral award win 9 Feb, 2022 09:18 PM Adele has been labelled "transphobic" after declaring at a gender-neutral awards show that she "loves being a woman". The singer made the comment at the Brit Awards while collecting her prize for Artist of the Year, a new category merging the former Best Male and Best Female Artist awards, reports the New York Post. Amid huge cheers, she said: "I understand why the name of this award has changed but I really love being a woman and being a female artist. I do!" Despite overwhelming support from the crowd in London's O2 Arena, her comments soon led to backlash online. "Please, no, ADELE can't be a TERF," one wrote on Twitter. "Who'd have thought Adele was a transphobe and would use her platform to call for the destruction of the trans community. Especially the confused teenagers," another Twitter user posted. Others commented that they had lost respect for the artist and would now no longer "spend a cent on her music", the Times of London reported. But the comments led many to spring to Adele's defence. Author and refugee campaigner Onjali Rauf tweeted, "Thank you @adele. Just, thank you. For speaking the two words being vilified. Woman. Female." Media consultant and author Jane Symons said she didn't know "whether to cry or scream" over the criticism. "A decade ago, if someone had said a woman would [be criticised] for the thought-crime of saying she liked being a woman, I would have laughed at such a ludicrous suggestion. Now it is happening," she wrote. ADVERTISEMENT | Advertise with NZME. Teacher Debbie Hayton wrote in the Spectator that Adele was risking joining the likes of JK Rowling, who has made headlines for "standing up for her sex". "Adele's message to women and girls was inspirational. Here was a woman – who has sold tens of millions of albums – telling the world she was proud to be a woman. That's something to celebrate, not condemn," she wrote. "Girls need role models and last night Adele stepped up to the plate. For that, she deserves applause, even greater than the adulation she received for her music." Adele is yet to comment on the criticism
This is all going too far….Dare any female of the species be happy in her sex and proud of what womanhood has achieved, even throughout the years of being labelled second class citizens…..she’s labelled a hatemomger and must bow down and do penance at the altar of weirdness. Hope she doubles down and says **** you all
Kiwi, I realize that it is your city, adopted country and possibly employment but I think that there are possibly a number of things of value that Canada could export to New Zealand but our trucker's "Freedom Convoy" is not be one of them. Started to bring attention to the vaccine mandate in this country (an the US has one too) it has now been seized by those that are worried about losing their freedom to walk around unmasked while forgetting that those who are in their path lose their freedom to avoid a potentially life threatening illness. I know that there is more to it than this but I won't go into it just now. Oh Canada! The reports here, though, make it sound like NZ has already, after a couple of days, got a better idea of how to handle this than we do after a couple of weeks..
Cressida Dick leaving Met Police. Pretty sure whatever your politics, no one can possibly think she was good at her job
She is the perfect example of what happens when someone is appointed for reasons other than being the best candidate. Her failings were in clear sight well before she got the job...
The thing I like the most about this sort of thing is seeing the ‘right on’ people, appointed because their face fits some new ethos, subsequently hoisted by their own petard. Tomorrow’s woke will always find something to hate (and therefore cancel) about today’s woke. It’s now unstoppable.
Boris Johnson and Liz Truss on diplomatic manoeuvres over the Ukraine - what could possibly go wrong? I do find the coquettish Ms Truss bizarrely attractive, though.
