โ€œI finally learned how to teach my guys to ID the passive voice. If you can insert "by zombies" after the verb, you have passive voice.โ€

โ€œThe final, brilliant word on passive voice.
"She was killed [by zombies.]"<--passive
"Zombies killed [by zombies] her." <-- activeโ€

Because it feels relevant as we continue to evaluate the media and our representativesโ€™ statements, my favorite way to identify the active vs. passive voice.

i.e. in August they secured ยฃ10bn for this year, with a promise of a further ยฃ90bn over the course of the next decade, assuming Blackstone don't change their mind.

They could mention that ยฃ100bn of it was pledged over 10 years, for a start.

BBC Laura Kuenssberg Show Accused of Anti-Green Bias After Cancelling Zack Polanski Interview The new Green Party leader was the only major party leader not to have been granted a conference interview on the flagship BBC show

The Greens requested an interview on the Laura Kuenssberg Show with Zack Polanski when he was elected leader, but were denied, with a promise to interview him during Green conference instead.

This was then scrapped citing the Manchester synagogue attack. Polanski is both Jewish and from Manchester

"mounting concerns"? What would it take for you people to be actually convinced? Because it seems pretty fucking obvious to me.

Record-breaking ยฃ150bn investment unveiled during US State Visit Record-breaking investment into the UK of ยฃ150 billon unveiled during historic US State Visit, boosting jobs and catapulting growth

The actual policy paper publication includes a spreadsheet of investment totals. At least half of the figure appears to be referring to this from Blackstone - so not actually invested, just "pledged" over 10 years.

Toad stayed in the bed, and Frog stayed in the closet.

They stayed there for a long time, just feeling very brave together.

Bisexual people exist, Kate Barker.

You'd know that if you actually represented LGB people.

Or knew any.

No sudden rupture is now required for the far right to take power in this country. For what we're seeing is a steady normalisation of extremists by the Conservative and Labour Parties, BBC, Telegraph, Mail and others. A shift once considered unthinkable beings to look acceptable, even inevitable.๐Ÿงต
