    Sky News posting an article which headlines a mass-migration from UK/US to Russia under the 'Shared morals' visa scheme....
    However, if you get past the headline and initial commentary, the principal rationale for moving appears to be homophobia & it turns out that the one US family quoted have already regretted it, finding life in Russia is not a bed of roses and their family has split up as a result of the move. <doh>
    And as for 'mass-migration' it seems that only 56 families have applied this year!
    Article also quotes 2 Brits involved with the scheme and I'm pretty sure that if they weren't in Moscow they'd probably be Reform councillors somewhere....

    Well isn't this terrible to hear: the people employed by **** For Brains' made-up government department to steal data on an industrial scale are suddenly fearing prosecution after their department was disbanded and **** For Brains left them to cop the flak

    How long before some of the twinks flip on their Lord & Master to avoid being in GenPop with people who know people who suddenly lost their medical coverage overnight...?

    Funny how the tributes to Jimmy Cliff forgot to mention a certain then-Mayor of London pulled the plug on his Rise/Respect festival set mid-song before cancelling all future festivals because they claimed London doesn't have a problem with racism

    Go on, guess which former Mayor of London did that

    Good news for Hooters: Pam Bondi and Lindsey Halligan will be looking for new jobs tomorrow, after the cases against James Comey and Letitia James were both dismissed by the judge

    They're literally saying the same talking points with the same Russian giveaway indicators.
    "Democratically elected" Yanukovych, "The" Ukraine, poking the Russian bear, NATO on the border...
    Hang the pair of them. ****ing traitors.

    Halligan was illegally appointed and it appears she's ****ed it up all over the place, too.
    They can't re-try Comey or James, as the statute of limitations has run out on both cases.
    Shambles.

    It was obvious this was going to get booted out of court last week when Halligan tried to explain the law she was getting wrong to the judge

    Even more obvious when there were attempts to twist one of the judge's comments into him attacking Halligan

    I saw the decision but thought the SoL overrun only applied to Comey?

    She posted this yesterday and the case was formerly dismissed before anyone could watch it! <laugh>
    It'll be interesting to see what happens about Halligan's bullshit with the grand jury.

    Reform UK leader Nigel Farage said he will not investigate any Russian links within his party, stating that he is “not a police force”.

    Cool, so we'll get the actual police force on that then, right? Right?

    The response I saw from him was 'What has Keir Starmer done?'
    Well, you Frog-Faced **** - the last time I looked no close friend or senior member of his Party had been found guilty of espionage for a foreign power and sentenced to 10.5 years in clink!
    Maybe a better response should be to ask what did the Tories do about Priti Patel?

    And then there's his defence about him being a racist **** at Dulwich College: Oh, how convenient people remember things from forty years ago

    Lindsey Halligan might fall into a new job by the weekend at this rate...
