Has anyone seen this video or heard about this news story about a scottish comedian who trained his girlfriend's perfect dog to do the worse thing he could think of?

He was found guilty of 'hate speech' yesterday and is expected to receive a custodial sentence next month. It's estimated to be a year long sentence.
 

Superb article, Nines and pretty much tells it exactly how it is.
As long as the proposed pay rise goes ahead, then the wage for those on the lower end of the scale (like me) rises substantially and hopefully keeps a few more in the job.
Yeah it’s gonna be stressful and sometimes emotionally exhausting....but with that goes the excitement and inner reward.
I couldn’t be happier.

The much heralded new blue UK passport will be made in France....you couldn't make it up. Rees-Mogg and pals are fuming, but apparently the French bid was £50M lower than the British company De La Rue.
 
So nothing to say?

Address the point - you speak about elites, but the drivers behind leave were and are a group of vastly wealthy individuals who stand to benefit - true or false?
A few of them are wealthy does probably mean they would be termed as 'Elitist' however the vast majority of leavers are not. Remember we were told that leavers were (thick racist white van drivers) so you cant have it both ways. It's just another 'remoaner' argument you are trying to cause. It's over fella, move on and support the country going forward.
