"Sorry you were offended" is not "Sorry for what I said"
Why can't the media call out this difference, even Starmer has said "he was right to apologise" What apology dipshit??
Hey! We're doing an open source and free culture unconference in Manchester on April 25-26.
Affordable, family-friendly, lots of fun maker and podcast-y and coder-ish stuff to discuss. Have you got your ticket yet? There's still time to submit a talk for the main track, too.

If Starmer is serious about a "reset" for Labour then one of the first things which needs to happen is that he boots Mahmood, and others, out of the cabinet and scraps his government's cruel and inhumane policies and rhetoric against migrants, and other marginalised groups. #r4today

For those telling me I'm wrong about Starmer being one of the UK's worst PMs, & that Johnson, Sunak, Truss etc were worseβessentially, none of those people were elected with a 174-seat landslide for change, & immediately opted for continuity, authoritarianism & wooing actual fascists.
That's why.
This is incredibly funny to try because even if it *was* true, then it would mean Streeting was defending Mandleson in September for the love of the game.
