Been around the block, retired from education, sort of, not retired from life. Now got time for watercolour painting, riding my bike, and playing blues, though not all at the same time. Been glory hunting with Liverpool since Shankly’s days

Not posting anything except this today.
I will be with fellow survivors later today remembering the 97 who died, the hundreds injured and the many survivors who still suffer.
If you are affected by the events of 15/4/89 and need someone to talk to @hillsboroughsu1.bsky.social are there for you.

Sue, this whole thing remins me of those M&S adverts.
”These are no ordinary targets, these are AI targets…”
Or like when advertisers add the phrase “Tactical” to a torch or a rucksack.

Steve @stephenh.bsky.social · 2h

Using AI To generate targets is a political stunt to make it seem like the govt are helping schools utilising “the latest technology”.
The truth is that it is a bureaucratic laziness disguised as a ”solution”. It offers no practical help or assistance in tackling an often complex granular issue

The BBC are under attack over integrity in journalism, and what do they do? They bring on one of the worst examples of it, in Kelvin Mackenzie, who lied about what happened at Hillsborough.

Unbelievable…🤦🏻‍♂️

But, but isn’t that socialism? 🤔

What? Nothing about Farage’s financial dealings, like his house bought with money he doesn’t want us to know about?
I’m sure there is a real story there…

Profitable business isn’t it?
I wonder why not for profit care struggles?

The Nazis always accused their opponents of the things they themselves were doing. They even had a spokesperson who was specifically tasked to lie to the masses.

Remember the ITV. Adverts were needed to pay for it.
Now look at Sky TV. You pay for it and you also pay for the privilege of watching adverts. Betting Adverts to the fore.

Trying to appease fascists.
It doesn’t work.
Murdoch has long coveted the BBC, hence his minions are all over this.
As for that piece of antipodean dingo detritus, he doesn’t look well. Every crease in his face is the result of a lie he has told

He didn’t object to them using old footage of him at the cenotaph, when the actual footage showed him hung over and scruffy.
The man has lied to his wives, his mistresses, his children, his employers, parliament, the nation and the Queen.
His views should always be prefaced with that fact.
