I'm not implacably opposed to ID cards but if the UK government actually wants to stop refugees and asylum seekers being illegally employed, they should go after the unscrupulous employers who give them jobs either knowing they have no right to work here or not bothering to check.

I’ve just signed the petition below calling for the boycotting of Eurovision unless Israel is banned. Governments are doing nothing to end the genocide in Gaza and so it's down to people power now. Will you add your name too and then share it far and wide? Thanks. 38d.gs/qh_c

CK is Trump's Horst Wessel. Soon there will be a marching song about him that the MAGAs can sing along with while goosestepping their way through the country formerly known as the USA.

This is how I imagine the meeting between Trump and Albanese:

Trump: "You should sack Lyons, or I'll put 100% tariffs on everything."
Albanese: "Fuck off, idiot."

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

What if we taxed the gas industry properly?

"We're incredibly generous to the gas industry, most of which is foreign owned.

"Norway taxes gas & gives their kids free education. What we do is give the gas away for free & charge our kids a fortune to go to uni."

"I don't care that he's dead."

No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd.

Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.

While the Australian War Memorial dinosaurs have been busy moving goal posts to ensure Chris Masters' "Flawed Hero: Truth, Lies and War Crimes" revealing truths about Ben Roberts-Smith will not receive the 2024 Les Carlyon literary award—never forget Masters is a legend and a hero. #auspol #qldpol

I’m sick and tired of homegrown MAGA terrorism and their worship of God, Guns and Goons
The alleged Charlie Kirk assassin identified as Tyler Robinson from a white Republican household.

His family are 2nd amendment, blue lives matter, MAGA, and he was taught to shoot since a young age. His father, an ex sheriff, convinced him to turn himself in, qualifying for the FBI $100,000 reward.

Gonna put up a few links to C&L that reflect the REAL Charlie Kirk, not the one you see through the gauzy whitewash of cable tv and newspapers.

Again, these things don't mean he should be shot. But they do suggest that hate speech is bad and more hate speech is worse.
