Genuine Times headline:
BBC presenter deletes tweet urging Biden to kill Trump

He claims that it was satire, but...
 
Vote these bastards out tomorrow, this vote is for my niece who at the time was an 18 yr old trainee nurse who only months into her training sat with people on Covid wards and held a phone next to a patient's ear while their relatives said their last goodbyes
She held the hands of patients who could not see their loved ones
This is for my wifes uncle who sat alone in the crematorium while they cremated his wife of 60 yrs and we had to watch on a laptop
This is for my aunt who died in a retirement home after this government allowed untested people return to the home with Covid
While this happened they were partying in Downing St
Vote them out for the theft of Test and Trace , PPE , the lies , the cheating and the contempt of the disabled
Vote them out for the mess they have made of the NHS The Police The Fire Service , The prison service , our river and Seas filled with ****
<applause><applause><applause><applause><applause>
 
I mean it would be an "official act"

...though I would have claimed Mar a Lago under eminent domain first, just to get the documents back
He could literally have the military kill Trump and 6 members of the Supreme Court and it would be legal, according to that ruling.
Replacing all 6 and then having the new court re-rule that it's now illegal would also be fine, apparently.
It's just an obvious coup by foreign agents. We are all ****ed.
 
If you're thinking that preventing a massive Labour majority is a good idea, alternatively just think of the absolute joy if the Tories get destroyed so completely that they aren't even the official Opposition!!

Vote tactically to just Get The Tories Out once and for all :emoticon-0148-yes:
 
Sadly, with the Election in full gear we sadly didn't see this story getting the coverage it deserved

So we have a Torygraph writer writing for a neo-Nazi blog, and a whole bunch of the worst people on the planet rushing to her defence - including that kid's author who pretends to be a man but spends a lot of time being a definitely not mental TERF on the verge of yet another mental breakdown
 
What a great day it would be if the SNP maintained their vote and became the third Party behind Labour and the LibDems, relegating the Tories to 4th!! <laugh>

With Labours rise in Scotland fading and with tactical voting across England and Wales it can actually happen!

Bring it on!! <cheers>
 
Morning all!

Today has 'that' feeling about it. I was 17 in '79 (decent song title/band name). I didn't get to vote then and was stuck with Tory governments until I was 35 years old. 1997 was such a release for so many people...and that first term of Blair is the best government in my lifetime.

My youngest is 20. She was 6 when that ****er Cameron was elected. She's seen him, and the role of shameful replacements, do their best to pick apart what's good and decent about this country and try to mould it into the vile, twisted reality that these sub-human ****ers inhabit.

I'm going to stay up all night to watch the ****ers fall, and like the night that Thatcher died, take that memory of warmth and happiness to my grave.

How ****ing depressing....just listened to some vox pops with 3 o'70's men in Sunaks affluent Richmond Constituency. All said that they were voting Tory because they had done a good job and they didn't trust Labour! <doh>

I bloody hope the polls are right!
 
Yesterday at work , a conversation about the election, " I'm not voting labour, the mess they made the last time and what they did in the 70s " this was with a 24 yr old who still lives at home with his mum and dad , mother is waiting for a hip replacement and dad needs home visits from a nurse
I also reminded him that as a union member the damage that the Tories had done to the labour movement and the right to peaceful protest

Matt Kennard has worked with the establishment so he is well worth listening too.

It's like a cult isn't it - years of media indoctrination which completely changes history.
Hopefully you managed to convince him even at this late stage?
