So we've gone from "he never said anything Nazi" to "well he might have said something Nazi but not in a hurtful way" to "well okay he probably did say something Nazi in a hurtful way, but didn't we all?"

Mrs R: "There was a woman on the ward today who didn't want to take paracetamol. We've had to explain that we're not giving it to her because she's got a fever and we want her to feel better, but because she's got a fever and if we don't get her temperature down then her baby is going to die."
"We were told thalidomide was a safe drug and it wasn't..."
Nigel Farage says he has 'no idea' if Donald Trump is right about paracetamol being linked to autism.

Nigel Farage is now saying he didn't want his name down on the house in Clacton for 'obvious security reasons'.
But he has his name down on the house he owns in Kent.
So either he is lying, or he thinks Clacton is unsafe.

The Conservatives - who oversaw every single thing on this list - are trying to claim that only the Conservatives would "stop the madness" - that they created...?
So incredulity aside, what about the list itself?

There are many, many recent moments that I'd like to see all the people professing to be deeply outraged by Bob Vylan comment on. From columnists & politicians to the Chief Rabbi. (Perhaps they have but I can't find any...)

I note with interest right-wing media's total absence of any concerns about prominent BBC presenter Armstrong expressing his highly political opinions. As was always perfectly clear to many of us, the problem was not that Lineker had views, but the fact they didn't approve of his views.

Israeli soldiers used 80-year-old Gazan as human shield, then killed him
Soldiers put an explosive cord around the man's neck and forced him to scout buildings for eight hours. After his release, another division shot him dead.

Being “low paid” and “not contributing” are two different things. The first happens because pricks like you don’t understand what *actually* contributes to society.
You’re part of the problem, you’re just too over-entitled to see it.

This is an astonishingly ill-informed and amoral assessment for the political editor of the BBC to have reached, about someone spreading extremist conspiracy theories and using them to whip up hatred against elected politicians. I'd say I'm surprised, but sadly I'm not.
Staggeringly generous summary by Chris Mason just now: "Elon Musk no doubt has transformed the volume of this conversation, ensuring that the government was confronted with a reality it couldn't sidestep".
