Why didn’t we just tell the bankers in 2008 to work harder or get a better job instead of giving them trillions?

I could've sworn I'd told Twitter not to show me content with the word 'queen' in it. Haven't yet done jubilee or prince chaz. However I'm still seeing photos and "news" that she's arrived at some bun fight or other.

The UN Security Council in an unlikely show of unity about the murder of journalist Shireen Abu Aqla, requesting an immediate probe.
Good luck with that !!

It’s no accident the media misreports events in the Palestinian territories & Israel. That is often the result of ‘self censorship’ & the consequence of a network of pro Israel ‘media monitoring’ groups pursuing advocacy over accuracy. Me for @novaramedia
I’m beginning to develop a real anger at people who can’t be arsed making their content readable if you’re on a mobile device. Given the 90% of traffic these days seems to come from mobile devices it seems a bit stupid. Maybe it’s just me.

'Most ministers repeated the bit from their propaganda manual about being laser-focused on “the people’s priorities”.
Nothing like a bit of alliteration to drown out those noises emanating from your stomach.'

Yet another shameless, regressive divisive, & purely ideological culture war appointment, as UK’s ‘strictest’ headteacher Katharine Birbalsingh is made social mobility chief. Up there with Nadine Dorries as Culture Secretary.
Smile - or else.
By far the worst ever British Govt.

They tried "managed decline" on Liverpool.
They liked it so much they are doing it to the whole country now.
The name was a bit on the nose though, so they rebranded it to: 'Levelling up'.

Colonial, racist reaction to Indigenous gender worlds
"Gender fluidity shocked colonialists, who were already predisposed to think of Indigenous peoples as culturally backward and in need of civilizing, as justification for vanquishing them. When the 19th-century American painter George Catlin depicted a ceremonial dance that honored a Two Spirit person, he saw only 'a man dressed in woman’s clothes,' he wrote in 1841, adding that this was a 'disgraceful degradation.' "
@jessmahler fn-delete does what you want iirc. Also thought emacs used ^D but that often gets remapped.

Here's @BBCBreaking with the truth about austerity
(After a decade of lying for @Conservatives )
We are a monetarily sovereign nation.
We cannot go bankrupt.
We do not
"borrow money".
We do not need to "balance the books".
Thank god it’s them instead of you.
Quite revolting.

Next general election could be Rachel Reeves v Priti Patel vying to prove themselves the biggest cold-hearted, authoritarian, racist b*tch. Should be fun.

@thereclaimparty This is a very clear cut case of outright libel. So far I can see it has 19,300 views. You’d be wise to take it down and fully retract and apologise before you make this any worse for yourselves.

So, the origin of the baby formula pocalypse was Abbott management's refusal to repair dilapidated and failure-prone drying machines turning the plant into proverbial petri dishes for cronobacter, because...
