    Bristol kill the bill protest

    you think the police hitting women sat on the floor is OK? Fair enough. I think it's appalling. The police aren't supposed to assault people. There is a time for them to use force admittedly, plenty of examples coming out today of where it wasn't appropriate. Maybe they'll lie about the...

    Bristol kill the bill protest

    does it matter? Hitting women sitting on the ground isn't a good look for the police. Plenty of examples of them being far too excessive in their use of force.

    that's not working out too well in the States where it's written in its constitution! I agree with your post though.

    School Protests

    it's a major news story, getting both sides of the story is how journalism is supposed to work though increasingly it doesn't in this country. It's shone a light on some pretty silly opinions as well so win win.

    But events later than that date are already getting cancelled. As I said on another thread yesterday I had a outdoor gig in July cancelled yesterday. I'm going reign in my optimism a bit going forward. Though a pre booked table in a pub where you have to wear a mask to the toilet and the bar...

    Ashford the last couple of daysI think its going to take longer than I initially thought when the vacinne program got into full swing. Just going to try and enjoy each incremental step towards normality as they happen.

    I cant WFH. But not t bothered now I've only got a ten minute drive. Think you're right though, this will change the way a lot of companies operate permanently

    School Protests

    I agree with much in your post but now this has happened I feel that unfortunately as society we have to pick a side. Perhaps the only compromise is to suspend the teacher if its proved he went off curriculum. But if we go down the protection route then that really is a slippery slope. And it...

    Bristol kill the bill protest

    They do have a hard job, but they shouldn't be hitting women with batons when they're sitting down.

    Lost my job at the end of last year and now got a new one working in Cov. I didn't realise what a ball ache commuting was until I stopped doing it. On the M6 every morning at some ludicrous hour. No one knows what the future holds but I don't think I'll ever work in job which is more than 9 or...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I didn't ignore them. I looked into their claims, and came to the conclusion they were talking utter bollocks. But as they're fond of reminding us, they won. So now they need to deliver on their promises. The fact some people who voted leave also realised they were taking bollocks about the...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    You're missing the point. Whatever the reason people voted leave, we were promised significant, and in some cases instant economic benefits by prominent leave figures some of whom are part of the current cabinet. I expect them to deliver and will call them out if they don't. We've gone from...

    Bristol kill the bill protest

    A lot of very disturbing videos emerging from last night. Young girls sitting on the floor being attacked by police with batons and shields. They've got a thing for attacking women at the moment.

    You may be right about the teacher but this argument goes beyond his actions now. Quite simply we cannot give in and say that Islam cannot be criticised or ridiculed (same goes for any institution, country or religion). I constantly stick up for Muslims when people seek to tar them all with...

    Not heard anything about the one I've got in Berlin but no way it's going ahead and even if it does we won't be allowed to travel. Not sure where I'll stand on getting my flight money back. A re you getting reimbursed?

    that should never be allowed to happen, hopefully it won't.
