Things it doesn't cover. IRAQ.

Quote


Lesley Stahl on U.S. sanctions against Iraq: We have heard that a half million children have died. I mean, that’s more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?

Secretary of State Madeleine Albright: I think this is a very hard choice, but the price–we think the price is worth it.

The new health secretary has received £32,000 in donations from the chairman of the IEA. The IEA is a think tank that campaigns for NHS privatisation. The IEA don't disclose who funds them but it's most likely American private health companies.

Human turd Kate Andrews who seems to get more BBC airtime than even Farage also works for the IEA.

Looking forward to her next speech, where she highlights the Scottish Government's woeful failure to increase defence spending, followed by their woeful failure to negotiate Brexit successfully.

The vast majority of folk will never know that Hair is, at best, an incompetent ignoramus, and will read statements like the above completely unchallenged.

We're all fucked, lads.

Jared O'Mara has quit the Labour Party. I suppose he is an example of what can happen when you don't expect to win a seat so don't do your vetting thoroughly enough. 

 

Did he try to do a Spacey with his resignation?

Oh no it’s even worse. “Yes I called someone an ugly bitch but have you ever heard of a thing called AUTISM? Checkmate.

Voted in fair and square too.

Gives some perspective on just how bad those catapulted in on vagina shortlists are.

Israel is obviously feeling emboldened by Trump and are brining in a Jim Crow/Nuremberg law.

It's going to be interesting to see how the hundreds of "Friends" of Israel in Parliament spin this.

It’s shocking but will get minimal coverage and only a tiny amount of folk care.

Apartheid reborn.
