Interestingly in that article there was no mention of the part played for years by various prominent Tories, and there is no mention of 🐸 or Reform UK at all, nor of the part certain print media played in creating and reinforcing the hate and resentment against immigrants or persons of colour.

This pix above is NOT Dunluce castle. This is some weird AI nonsensical shit. Dunluce ruins don’t look remotely like this - they are way bigger. Even when it was built, Dunluce didn’t look at all like this. I know, because I live in Northern Ireland and have been there often enough. Even the cliffs are completely wrong. Here’s an actual aerial photo. #DunluceCastle #NorthernIreland

I’ve noted this coincidence, and several replied that it isn’t, with one mentioning HP - clearly it’s nothing to do with HP, though it is very strange and unusual. Powerful and wealthy people, including those who ‘could afford’ [Lynch’s words] to spend ten years fighting the American legal system have many friends, many enemies and definitely many jealous of their money and success.

Today the brainless Cooper is talking about tackling ’extreme misogyny’. As I noted in an earlier comment, it would be a good idea to start with the ‘acceptable’ misogyny first. Everything springs from that. Teaching Respect and Consent is the very beginning of dealing with this - respect for oneself, respect for others and consent before crossing another person’s boundaries (touching them).

The governments of some countries are clearly complicit: but the weekly protests show the people of those countries are not. Unfortunately the people can’t do anything except protest, and even that has constraints, until their next opportunity to elect ministers.

That bit of sea between Ireland and England/Scotland/Wales holds Beaufords Dyke where thousands of tons of munitions, ordnance, chemicals and such was dumped after the wars, and subsequently.

When the SNIP [Scotland-NorthernIreland] gas connector was laid they had to work around it and ran into some interesting challenges on the way.
Maybe that is why there isn’t and shouldn’t be too much windfarm or other structures built there, apart from the shipping channels challenges. Then there’s the stuff that came from Windscale-Sellafield and there have been issues with the raised levels of radioactive substances there also. There was even a failed legal action over it. (2/2)

On the contrary, IMO, The rioters showed exactly what it means to be English - not Welsh, Irish or Scottish. Occupation, control of others, subjugation, expulsion is what the English have done in all the countries they invaded and occupied over hundreds of years; even to their own by sending them to Australia as convicts back in the day, or to Ireland as plantation. I’m sure there’s plenty of it in Lammy’s history if he bothered to check.

🤣 He literally told the advertisers to ‘fuck off’ live on air a few months ago.

As for the Taiwanese boxer, something similar happened. She learned to box because of the violence her father inflicted on her mother. She did so to try and protect her mother. There is nothing that suggests she was ever anything other than female her entire life.

Algeria is not a trans friendly country at all. If there was even a hint that she was trans, or taking masculine hormones she probably would not be alive. From the record or her birth onwards she has always been identified as female; and I do not think they planned that far in advance for her to become an Olympic boxer. She says she learned to box to defend herself against assaults, and her father opposed her learning it; but yesterday he was proud she’s doing well.

FFS. 🤬. It’s not a gender eligibility row. She was born, raised, and identified as female her entire life and in all her documents.
