Lefty, occasional argumentative sod. Hates Tories, ITV, Tories, Brexiters, Tories, Trumpers and Tories.

Also, food that’s not on plates. And Tories.

The idea that ideological statements were carved into bullets did seem just a little unlikely to say the least…

The markings that supposedly expressed “transgender ideology” were………..a series of arrows.
CNN. The initial report, also called a bulletin, typically include all information gathered in an investigation so that agents anywhere will know what is being collected - but the information is not always correct. The ATF bulletin said that agents found engravings that they interpreted as "expressing transgender and anti-fascist ideology" on ammunition inside a weapon believed to have been used in the murder of Kirk. Two law enforcement sources told CNN that agents quickly ran an initial search on one of the markings, including a series of arrows, which analysts initially interpreted to be a connection to the transgender community. That information remains unverified and is still being investigated.

Good that the Guardian is calling Kirk “far right” and showings its readers his views - not “common sense”, not “conservative”, but far right conspiracy.

Charlie Kirk in his own words: ‘prowling Blacks’ and ‘the great replacement strategy’
The far-right commentator didn’t pull his punches when discussing his bigoted views on current events

Fiona Bruce perpetuating the myth that asylum seekers are the same as illegal immigrants. And not even challenged by shitty Peter Kyle.

What a disgusting PoS both of them are!

Don’t even get me started on Tory wanker Nigel Huddleston who’s praising the virtues of the illegal Rwanda scheme.

It is nearly 10 years since I sent an article to my good friend @gabundy.bsky.social on the subject of UBI.

I didn’t know that studies have been made on this subject for decades. I’d never heard the term UBI before this.

Anyway, here’s the article from my archives.
