2020 keeps delivering. Unfortunately you can't return any of the deliveries.

Antisemitic or not, the Corbynista Momentum far-left will think twice before spreading fake news about the IDF.

Or we get like Gordon Ramsey or like some Drill Sergeants, record them screaming insults about people violating social distancing, and then play that whenever we get thousands of people swarming the beaches. That will get them to clear out.

We could construct some kind of ridiculous obstacle course people have to traverse to get to the ER. The more inexplicable puzzles and obstacle courses a society has, the better that society. It directly correlates.

I think we all know that the years when Krypton Factor was hosted by Gordon Burns was the true golden age of western society. It's been downhill since.Fartsniffage wrote:Ostroeuropa wrote:

Your team of fellow Covid sufferers must score at least 300 to be admitted to hospital.

Hotel was used for asylum seekers. Been told the attacker was an asylum seeker, perhaps been denied asylum and worried about deportation? Police Scotland only reporting one fatality, the attacker.
Very unfortunate. The city center is my favourite part of Glasgow, I walk up West George Street regularly.

Often around there on the way from Queens street station.
Odd situation.
Suspect is reported to be one of the 3 dead at the scene.

Less than 20 MPs turned up today to a parliamentary debate on ‘recognising and rewarding’ health and social care staff for their hard-work during COVID-19.
The debate was triggered after a petition titled ‘Increase pay for NHS healthcare workers and recognise their work’ received more than 160,000 signatures
According to a recent YouGov survey, a massive 77% of the public support a pay rise for nurses.
Three other petitions were also debated including one that calls for the controversial immigration health surcharge to be scrapped for health workers and another that would grant citizenship to non-British health and social care workers who assisted during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Matt Hancock, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, was most notably absent.
Alex Davies-Jones, the Labour MP for Pontypridd, Wales, said during the debate: “The coronavirus pandemic provides a unique opportunity to try and show our thanks and appreciation.
“Call me old fashioned but I’m not sure a hand clap or a medal quite cuts it.”

First for a prospective education secretary to be seemingly lacking the critical thinking skills to fully appreciate the full contents of the article.
Second to then not straight away realise her error but instead tried to justify it.
Third regardless of content a lack of awareness that perhaps given everything going on with her side of the labour party anything that says anything that could be even remotely seen as antisemitic should just be held away from her with a bargepole.

Conserative Morality wrote:"It's not time yet" is a tactic used by reactionaries in every era. "It's not time for democracy, it's not time for capitalism, it's not time for emancipation." Of course it's not time. It's never time, not on its own. You make it time. If you're under fire in the no-man's land of WW1, you start digging a foxhole even if the ideal time would be when you *aren't* being bombarded, because once you wait for it to be 'time', other situations will need your attention, assuming you survive that long. If the fields aren't furrowed, plow them. If the iron is not hot, make it so. If society is not ready, change it.
