The Slave Labor Scam Complex - Lawyers, Guns & Money
When you get stupid text messages and emails attempting to scam you (“Hey, do you want to hang out tonight?”), do you ever wonder, who the hell is behind this ridiculousness? It’s especially sad given how successful this stuff is. In any case, the story of what is behind it is so, so much worse […]

Coming from Germany, I have no particular preference to jury trials per se, but I see their abolition as part of two worrying trends:
1. Exclusive focus on cost-free/cost-saving measures to fix a struggling justice system
2. Removal of checks on government power

“Did Nathan Gill ever say anything you disagree with in return for his bribes from a Kremlin stooge?”
“Did you, in your roles as his boss, friend, mentor & party leader, ever question his full-throated support for an enemy of the UK and if not, why not?”
You can have those for nothing, lads.

It would be useful to see a detailed comparison of what Gill said (as a result of bribery) and what Farage said, on the same topics. It is perfectly possible he made broadly similar arguments from conviction, rather than for money, though they can be criticised as bad arguments.

Covering Jamal Khashoggi's murder was one of the most disturbing things I've worked on. Hearing Trump say he was "extremely controversial" and people "didn't like him" is chilling. Hard to take any other way than he thinks there is moral ambiguity in the murder of a journalist.

Have to say I find the proposals to take away the route to permanent settlement of refugees both shocking and repulsive. It's code for 'whatever you do and contribute you can never become one of us so we won't allow you to try.' Racism, pure and simple.
