No, I didn't choose to defend them. I simply said this was a cooked up load of outrage from people who are just itching to find anti-islamic opportunities. Sound familiar?

Sorry ME, I am going to stop now and focus on the poor responses to COVID-19 from the UK and US. FFS, I wrote a policy on how we should handle this as employers 17 years ago, we've had enough time to prepare. It was just so predictable. Oddly enough I think Corbyn would have handled it better, a Government of National Unity or suchlike.

under Corbyn the Covid crisis would have hurt less.

everybody already languishing at home on the dole.

Employers already gone bust, before the virus even arrived.

You couldn't make this up.
Cumbria police have been slammed for nanny policing for posting drone images of people walking in the peak district. How ironic that for years nanny policing is what people wanted now they dont. There is a pandemic sweeping the country and the world. Stay indoors and exercise locally we've been told. How is driving your car (a potential crash and blue light needed) local. These idiots just dont get it.
Tarquin and Elijah need their daily hike ffs. Slap them up the head, fine them and send them home.
It's on the bbc website if someone can find and link it. Not my best skill!

Cumbria police in the Peak District?

I’m all for water canons wherever deserved. Walk or drive home long distance soaking wet.

Surely the appropriate response from the Old Bill to people out on the street is a telling off maybe taking their names (In case of them being collared a second time)then sending them on their way.
I have just watched a video of some jumped up woke Met Police 'spokesman' lecturing the greater public on the dangers of calling people nasty names whilst this virus was around you know the usual lot members of 'Minorities, LGBTQ ETC, of course the 'Transgender Community' Et Al
Priorities my ass...........
