Julia Ruth and her mates - its just drama and superficial shit?

Divarni must be screaming inside for someone that has some emotional maturity.

Long way back for those two #MAFSUK

I've come across a couple of London based journos quoting b) above.
It just reminds me of the very rich stating that they pay the most tax in absolute terms. Technically correct of course.. but 🤦‍♂️

There you go again, 'hatred of Londoners'?

You seem to be deflecting points by just making it about 'hatred of Londoners' . Bizarre!

I've seen nothing in his replies that suggests a deep seated hostility to the people of London?

That is your assumption, not reality.

Argh.. forgot it was a celebrity version 🤦‍♂️

One of its qualities was its ‘normal’ people - this one will be ego and a lot of ‘look at me look at me’

I’ll still end up watching it no doubt and complain all the way through😬

That reminds me - Traitors starts soon 😆

This makes me so sad. It feels like the UK is on a Runaway train heading for a place like Trump's America

I see it in my friend circle, decent people cannot that handle talking about how bad Brexit has been and the trajectory we are on - just flat out in denial.

Scary.

Yes, it still puts out some real quality programs - no doubt about that!

For the first time in my life I have recently thought about withholding the licence fee.

Its just so ridiculously blatant and obvious now, I don't want to contribute to it.

The Beeb is bent, a done deal for the right of Politics.

I’d forgotten just how mind bogglingly dense Tories are.

Thanks for the reminder.

Can anyone imagine if bosses, CEO’s etc had to take an effective pay cut?

No me neither

But folk doing actual productive roles, contributing tangible stuff to society… oh no, they must be squeezed!

I hear you and agree. Jones is a master antagonist and just patronises people to death.

Even when he has a point!

I do love a bit of Disney's Beauty and the Beast !

Its the same mistakes made as BREXIT, ie, labelling people thick, thugs or variations of that theme means that we will fail to deal with real issues communities see and fear.

Then Reform will ride into power on a wave of disenfranchised voters and implement a raft of extreme Policies.

Nuts.

The arrogance and dissonance of Israel's representative David Mencer on #SkyNews now is incredible.

Lies, misinterpretation and absolute refusal to think of ANYTHING other than Israel. They are a large part of why Jews are in so much danger everywhere.

Isreal does not = Jews etc etc

..erm, can someone bring back the real Mo Salah? 😢 #LFC

Agreed - and that’s why must ensure it continues to be fit for purpose.

Given Maresca's childish reaction, Garnacho chose the right Kindergarten to look after him #LFC #CHELIV

You are assuming any suggested amendments would be detrimental.

If we insist rigidly that it cannot be changed or that it’s too hard to do then eventually the argument to remove us from it becomes deafening. It’s naive to think it’s perfect and will never need to evolve

Simple as that. Reality.

No, you are deflecting. It’s a very simple premise.

Should the ECHR be subject to amendment if deemed required by any of the 46 member states?

Obviously agreement is required - that’s a gimme. It would be hard.

You're deflecting. Should we try to amend it if required or is that too hard?

So if its hard you don't try?

You know that doesn't preclude it from amendment , no?

I agree - but it shouldn't be immune to continuous improvement and amendment.

We should embrace that as and when required. Like any policy or regulation ever written workarounds and loopholes are found and abused.

The scones make me think you are sitting on the fence in that debate 😆

It’s just horrible really, we now know that we have all been thoroughly taken for a ride 😔

What’s worse, the very people supposed to prevent it,OFWAT, were a toothless part of the problem. People should be raging!

In private hands it will continue being a conduit to siphon taxpayers money out of the country.

It’s an expensive shit show I get it, but at this point privatisation has failed and bold action needs taking IMHO

Just a reminder, if one was needed, of just how awful human beings can be. Absolutely feral, evil

Yeah PR is a no brainer - but not good for main parties I feel. So ain't happenin' !

We live in very complex and nuanced times and whilst I hate to say it - the electorate is largely not interested in complex.

I guess that brings us back to where we started and tactics Zack is using 👍
