Excellent advert for proper “just whack it” penalties in the Supercup.

Only if you pick your friends at random.

Oh, I’ve been blocked now too. Shame.

He didn’t declare his conflict of interest to the journal: that he was explicitly writing the paper in order to provide evidence in support of Lucy Letby’s. It doesn’t get much more obvious than that.

And thanks, but I’ve coauthored several peer-reviewed papers.

From the horses mouth:

🥁

And for the love of God stop claiming the parents have been gaslit and you know the truth. They are vastly better informed about events than you are.

What on Earth do you think your last sentence implies?

The actual shocking conflict of interests that bothers me is Lee writing a paper specifically with the goal of giving the impression their was new evidence in Letby’s defence but not disclosing that he was acting under instruction from Letby’s lawyers when submitting the paper to the journal.

The lawyers’ responses to the self-declared world-leading-experts is publicly available to read.

Apart from fact that parents put trust in medical professionals who care for their children and it’s absolutely outrageous to expect them to know at the time if a nurse is not doing their job properly… this is simply false. The family of Baby C were absolutely incensed by Letby’s behaviour at time

Now!
When do we want them?!
More films like Memento!
What do we want?!

As has been pointed out by others, you’re not really doing anyone any favours by claiming only 69 journalists - about one in every million deaths - died in WW2.

Presumably they are specifically talking about journalists killed “in action” and not those that happened to be at home when a bomb hit.

They were there*

My “Christ” was at your attempt to deny the families of the victims any agency. They were their, were witnesses, sat through the months of trial proceedings and have come to a completely different conclusion to you. And because of that you have to make up some nonsense conspiracy about their reps.

I’d just wait and see what they do then, tbh. Maybe practice singing “All By Myself” in the meantime though, just in case.

I just phoned them up and told them and they were like “ok, we’ll update our records and send out a revised bill”. But YMMV.

Council tax bill would seem the obvious one… unless you’re trying to prove it to the council.

Such an odd thing to say right after “those poor parents”. Like deciding they have zero agency isn’t treating them with utter disrespect.

There was an AP (IIRC) Tweet about the plane carrying the bodies from MH17 crash landing in Amsterdam. Quickly deleted and reworded.

Yes and yes!

It’s definitely the narrative thing that feels like it’s gone up a level today. No Darren, it’s just a coincidence.

Usually indifferent to him but I’ve had to mute him today.

Looks tiny!

Hideous

Darren Fletcher’s commentary is nauseous.
