Fucking hell!
Also if this was a Muslim cleric saying the same thing in reverse they would be jailed for multiple years as a terrorist. But this privileged mofo gets off with a slapped bottom.

Yes you’re absolutely right.
- Comment on Sex offender who sparked UK asylum hotel protests released by mistake 1 week ago:
Why do we pretend the government is in anyway competent?
- Comment on Starmer lays out vision for much-criticised digital ID scheme 1 week ago:
I’m not sure this government listens to petitions. You need to form an alliance of digital id lovers and then throw paint on a tank or something whilst dressed as a giant id card. Before you know it the Home Secretary will proscribe your group as terrorists and arrest anyone carrying a digital id card or showing support for it. The government will eat itself so to speak.
Check mate Blair. Your move.

The police are too busy arresting Disabled Grannies Against Genocide to enforce any laws.
- Comment on British citizens serving in the IDF can now be tried for war crimes in the UK 3 weeks ago:
Let’s be honest, this is never going to happen. You have to understand the real politique rules that exist here: if you’re brown and join a fighting force overseas - terrorist. If you’re white - woah woah woah let’s not get carried away here maybe they’re just doing medical or logistics roles.
British citizens will still head over to Israel and fight for the IDF and then happily return freely to the UK afterwards. And not a damned thing will change 😥🙃.

- Comment on UK: Foreign Secretary says China does pose a security threat to Britain, says she is ‘deeply frustrated’ at collapse of spy trial 3 weeks ago:
I’m surprised she hasn’t said, “If you knew what I know about China you wouldn’t object to the government proscribing them as terrorists”.
Seriously what’s the difference? Oh yes. She’s has zero principles and is an idiot.

- Comment on Britons travelling to EU to undergo new biometric checks at border from Sunday 3 weeks ago:
The messaging is clear here. If you travel to the EU and plan on committing crimes… then you best be an EU citizen so that you can get away with it.

- Comment on Labour Party members just defected to Your Party en masse 4 weeks ago:
Bothsidesing is the worst thing you can do as a news site.
Bothsiding ? Oh we’re turning it into a verb now are we? OK. Cool.
I have to disagree with that. Not pretending to world is simple and presenting a balanced view of a story is a mature aged responsible thing to do as a news site. Obviously people will disagree but to hide information or distort it is not news. It’s dirty propaganda.
We need less of these kinds of site that amplify hate towards others and pretend the world is simpler than it is. No wonder we’re so fucked and divided as a country. The exact same thing Farage is doing to right wingers, sites like these are doing to left wingers.
I have easy answers for you. Oh and by the way everyone that disagrees with me is some form of evil.
FFS.

You obviously don’t remember Tony Blair fawning over Bush. Rode with him into battle. Oh wait, no. Started an illegal war that we’re all still paying the price for.

- Comment on Petition: Do not introduce Digital ID cards 5 weeks ago:
Hmm 🧐 seems I was suckered into the government propaganda machine. I can’t help but think Nandy’s comments this morning were calculated to cause confusion in the government’s favour.
- Comment on Petition: Do not introduce Digital ID cards 5 weeks ago:
I carry my driving licence too, but by choice.
Lisa Nandy was just on Sky news and explicitly said that it is optional to carry it. You’d apparently “have an ID” but you don’t have to carry it.
I’m not sure what that means for why they need it. Apparently to check work eligibility easily instead of one of several means that are, in her words, “more easily forged”.
You could quite easily develop a system like the driving licence check (for when you rent a car, for example, to check your driving status and points) to provide extra information anonymously like age range or work status or whatever you wanted. In fact if we were still in the EU we’d be able to participate in the beta that Spain is spearheading for age verification: ageverification.dev. It’s goals are explicitly privacy focused so I’d encourage people to read the details.
As a technology challenge I don’t think there’s a good argument not to have such a system rather than the patch work one we have now that was designed and built close to hundreds of years ago. However politically selling something like this to British people is always going to be the hard part.
