There’s a lot of that going around these days. IDF storming hospitals dressed as doctors, china turning a container ship into a missile battery. These people don’t care about international law or the fact they’re putting civilians in danger.

Let’s be clear: if the Palestine Action hunger strikers die, the government will bear moral responsibility | George Monbiot

It was like pass the parcel. Youth on an e-bike took it from me, paused at the lights and a kid snatched it from him and ran, that kid was knocked over by a pedicab whose rider then stole it. I lost track shortly after. Every one of them was a small boat immigrant though.

Maybe true, but I had my phone stolen 7 times on the walk from the station to the office and Sadiq Khan has done nothing about it.

Well yeah, so much of the reporting yesterday was that they “disabled it for the majority of users”. No, they made it a premium feature so they could monetise it.

I’m gonna have to take a brief break from posting about how Labour are liars who have completely trampled international law to say I love that people are bringing their dogs into parliament. Is that a corgi?

Too late mate, they already own vast chunks of our energy generation and distribution infrastructure, water companies, transport infrastructure, even football clubs. I suppose you could sell that one steel mill back to them.

On the plus side in 5 or 10 years we might get a decent HBO series out of it.

I don’t think it’s a controversial point. I suppose I was just suggesting that neither the UK nor Israel seem to give a shit about Syrian sovereignty. They think they can do what they want and they no longer give a shit about international law.

How could they collaborate? Israel destroyed all their military equipment and infrastructure a year ago. Best they could do is hold up a sign saying “I support the UK’s air strikes”.

The man has spent the last 18 months refusing to acknowledge the US and Israel breaking international law. He’s obviously pretty good at it now so he might as well stick with it.
