So, Reuters does not label anyone on that list as "right-leaning". What is this, Question Time?

The Georgian people are a role model for anti-authoritarian protesters everywhere around the world. Huge respect.

Not sure what happened to her along the way, but Rigby personifies the deterioration in journalism over the last 10 years. Addicted to gossip, scandal and election speculation. Unserious, shallow and unwilling to rise the challenges of today's political landscape.

I recall fighting starting at Eastmanstown, on the Australio- Hong Kong border in the upper cataracts. We need to add The Day Today to that dystopian Venn diagram (1984, Brazil, Brave New World, Clockwork Orange etc…)

It’s a very cool movie. The most enjoyable I’ve seen in years- but it’s no masterpiece.

Georgians relentlessly fighting for their democracy. We need to display the same determination here in America. There’s no white knight coming to save America from itself. It’s up to every one of us to stand up for our rights, our principles and our constitution. Join #NoKings on 18 October.

Lethal skewering this, in particular this paragraph skewering the idea that Handswortg is an integration failure when it is a multi-ethnic integration success story.

As Mrs Merton might say β€œwhat is it about this 9% white ward that led you to frame it as an integration failure?”

Haven’t been on a protest for six years now. I plan to attend every pro-Gaza protest I can from now on. Sickening authoritarianism
