Because there’s no reason to suggest the US police learned it from the Israelis and even if they did why bring it up? But yeah mostly it’s very mild and if it wasn’t Labour post Corbyn this probably would’ve been ignored.

No. Don’t do this. You’ll come back to the Brexit Thread on here for some light relief.

I think it’s more “why bring Jews into this?” And like I say Labour have a lot to prove to the Jewish community right now. Antisemitism is a complex topic I’m still getting my head around TBH, some of it I get, other bits seem a massive stretch. Throw in political axes to grind and a new...

This made me chuckle.

In a nutshell: It’s been claimed that the cops learned this from Israel, Israel deny this: Israel Police to 'Post': We do not have a 'George Floyd' procedure The far left have a history of antisemitism so people are on a hair trigger for “dog whistles” and see this made up link between BLM and...

I do think she’s unlucky. She’s been quite good on antisemitism and it was one line in an article that covered a lot and generally said “don’t leave Labour if you’re left wing”, but if you’re shadcab you gotta be ultra careful.

Presenteeism is such bollocks anyway. Oh cheers mate you’re a real hero coming in and infecting the entire office. Nice one.

Note to self: disinvite Brylowes from strip club visit.

Called this when I saw the tweet this morning then the hasty apology tweet a couple of hours later. Shared an article where it repeated the conspiracy theory that Israel trained the cops who killed George Floyd, proper bat shit stuff that shouldn’t have made it into a national newspaper in the...

Man flu is legit I think, saw a study somewhere that it affects men differently. The pain thing doesn’t surprise me. My ex had a high pain threshold and multiple midwives wouldn’t accept the baby was on the way because she wasn’t screaming the place down.

There’s significant evidence of difference in brain patterns (in general) between women and men that can account for this though, possibly related to testosterone levels etc. The science is young but that seems to be what it’s showing. However averages aren’t everyone and there’s still an issue...

Lack of women in STEM is an interesting issue. When I taught Computing it wasn’t uncommon that the best students in Year 9 were girls, what did these excellent programmers do when options time came around? Choose English Lit or Drama instead. Or if they were really geeky Biology. Don’t know...

That’s why I mean it’s poor politics. Compare to “tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime”, which is essentially the same thing but accepted across the political spectrum. In politics if you’re explaining you’re losing.

Spit then.

“Defund the police” is the worst piece of politics I’ve seen since the Lib Dems. It’s such a stupid slogan especially as you can’t find anyone but a couple of Twitter weirdos who mean it literally, instead you’ve got people saying it to mean “spend more on rehabilitation” and wondering why...

Not sure racism is a core tenet of right wing thought is it? Id hope not.

It’s not zero cost to wait though. Each season away costs us millions and reduces the benefit of any eventual deal.

You really are a loon. We as in humanity you fucking doorknob.

.... Yes? Are you so contrarian you’re now defending the killing ability of Islamic terrorists? Weird flex but ok.

It’s alright he’s mates with Robinson, he’ll be on the right wing Patreon/YouTube grift before you can say “so much for the tolerant left”.
