What a cunt

I’m sorry if the language offends

Actually, no, I’m not

In the words of a sadly departed friend, β€œwhat a howling cunt”

Musk’s outright lying on Twitter is presumably designed to secure some political/financial advantage

Is this what β€œFree Speech” is all about?

Dear @barristersecret.bsky.social

Are there any provisions in the Sentencing Guidelines whereby the flavour of the said milkshake might be an aggravating feature justifying immediate custody?

I’m thinking β€œsour grapes” perhaps?

I often thought that the thing to do here was to report yourself to the Bar Council, an allegation of fraud having been made against you, providing them with the name of the LAA assessor as a witness, and inviting them to prosecute you

Victoria Thomas Bowen sentenced for Nigel Farage milkshake attack The Reform UK party leader was drenched in liquid when he started his constituency campaign in June.

Apparently #Farage is unhappy that the woman who threw a milkshake over him did not go to prison

RMT is devastated to learn that one of their members who was assaulted working at Ilford railway station on Wednesday, has tragically died.
The Customer Experience Assistant for MTREL was assaulted on Wednesday evening and police announced their death yesterday.

It would probably have been better if the Scum had put the quotation marks around the word Apologised, rather than the word Victims?

For once I have to disagree with you. He’s entitled to say β€œsod the lot of you”

But wouldn’t his best response be to pardon Trump on January 19th?

For an unelected oligarch who professes his undying loyalty to the US constitution, #ElonMusk shows scant respect for that of the UK.

But then that isn’t really what this is all about
