    A Deform councillor in Nottingham has quit within a week of being elected

    The report unintentionally says the most on the nose thing about the whole operation
    Seven days after fighting an election on a promise to cut spending and waste, the Reform County Councillor for Newark West has resigned which will result in the triggering of a by-election that will cost taxpayers thousands of pounds

    Wow, turns out that it's possible to have new reasons to never visit Qatar

    ...and by complete coincidence, Attorney Bimbo Pam Bondi is paid $115k a month to lobby for, you guessed it, Qatar

    ...and it appears that same Attorney Bimbo also happened to approve the jet from Qatar

    How can Bad Enoch be going grey already?

    There's no way it could possibly be stressful having to find new things to pretend to be outraged about six times a day

    If they actually read the New Testament they must wince every paragraph. I'd be interested in their take on the The Good Samaritan. Or Christ's entry to Jerusalem pre crucifixion.

    If Jesus existed and was anything like the character portrayed in The Bible, he was a socialist. It's a shame that so many who claim to be his followers are such hypocrites.

    My 'born again' sister and her husband have plenty, but are constantly moaning about taxes, pensions, the cost of care, IHT, etc. Some ****er's got to pay tax...it's funny how it should always be someone else.

    For future reference, when you have to spend an entire morning sending out minions to say you didn't sound uncannily like Enoch Powell, that means you sounded uncannily like Enoch Powell and it didn't work out for you

    Just when you thought our species couldn't deserve extinction anymore than it already does, the Saudis arrange for a fully operational mobile McDonalds to follow the orange ****stain around their country for his visit

    Yes, it's literally this bit from The Simpsons

    My RE teacher actually taught me critical thinking, the dangerous bastard! <laugh>
    It's the kind of religious education that I can strongly approve of.

    Here is what each major religion believes.
    Here are the tools to best determine how reliable each of their claims are.
    Go.

    Did you overcome the suffering and impermanence of the detention to achieve enlightenment?

    I'm barely joking, as not only did my RE teacher look uncannily like Piper Laurie in Carrie (and her name was Miss White...), but here's the scope of the world's religions taught to me
    Judaism - the Holocaust and...no, just the Holocaust, reducing millennia of a religion to a ten year span of German history
    Islam - girls can't touch the Quran (so, of course, when she was out the room one of the girls grabbed it out of the cupboard)
    Sikhism - mainly surface level stuff about turbans, which in retrospect I wonder if that was due to there being a few Sikhs at my school
    Hinduism - surface level stuff about the caste system
    Buddhism - never got mentioned once
    Shinto - pretty sure my RE teachers had never heard of it
    Taoism - see Shinto
    Yoruba - see Taoism
    Paganism - pretty sure mentioning it would have got you a detention
    Voodoo - well that would've got you a detention
    Satanism - ...was sorely bloody tempting after five years of this
