They've just been in power for 14 years with the ability to pass this legislation, so why didn't they then? I call bullshit.

america repeating history
Trump's America. Not just repeating the Nazi / Fascist playbook in the lead up to WWII, but partly replaying America's own history, featured here on the front page of Rolling Stone magazine in 1969. Expect a lot more of this violence before Trump dies or refuses to leave the presidency.

the appleby horse fair arrests
There'd have been 84 arrests if l'd have gone. The last time l went (many years ago) it was on my motorbike. I went by myself, had a few too many drinks with the Gypsies (or Travellers) and then rode back. Keith Richard had nothing on me.

meet the press' kristin welker showcase's proper journalism.
If only more journalists like Kristin Welker stood up to Trump and called out his lies. It would especially help if they backed each other up when Trump singles a reporter out and tries to demean them and who they work for, instead of desperately laughing at his 'jokes' and trying to maintain their White House access. Letting Trump spout lie after lie over the years without rigorous comeback has bought us to where we are today. A dangerous world an a man baby used to getting his own way without any repercussions.
And this is the face of a bullying powerful kiddie raping racist liar who does not like being held to account by the truth. Probably his rapist face.
the d day landings and star trek
After the recent D Day events, here's a reminder that this strapping young lad, a certain James M. Doohan of Vancouver, was shot 6 times and landed at Juno Beach on 6th June 1944. Don't recognise him? Look further below. A reminder that many of the TV and movie stars we knew and loved, served their countries fighting the fascists. Obviously today the fascists (and would be fascists) in charge would label them 'Antifa'.

little tommy robinson full of crap again
Looking at this AI crap, we'll remember them as idiots who ran into the sea, not towards the land. Racist Knobhead.

The response when you're in the pub and admit you've got a large record collection. We've all met them.

Take a bow sir. This is why the rich get richer and it's the poor that suffer the consequences.

meet shane - he collects flexi discs
One of the internet sites l frequent is 'The Afterword', a music site originally put together for and by old readers of 'The Word' music magazine after it sadly folded. Chat is mainly about music but other topics are also discussed, and most enjoyable it is. If that is your kind of bag, l recommend it. However, l must admit that the users are mostly of a certain age, as evidenced by Shane, one of the participants featured below. Known as Gardener on the site.

where are nigel farage and the southampton rioters now?
It's almost as if Farage and his supporters have no interest in knife crimes, they are just racist fucks taking advantage of a chance to kick off and feel important despite a grieving families wishes. Also, one of the two arrestees in Southampton has previous for knife crimes himself. You couldn't make this crap up and it's oh so sad and depressing the right wing media lap it all up.
Meanwhile.....'Two Tier Policing' my arse.
trump and the size of the reflecting pool
The senile kiddie racist does know that it was just as large under the previous presidents? Doesn't he? Nowadays l'm not so sure.
farage the lying racist fucker
It's almost as if the racist fucker he makes it up as he goes along.

russell brand - where did it all go wrong?
At one time Russell Brand was a fucked up working class lad done good, who was bright as a spark and witty with it. Since the Andrew Sacks case it's been a gradual freefall, with sexual complaints and charges that are currently ongoing (although he denies the charges and has 'found God'). He's now winding down his UK company and reached the stage where his new book is being printed with Tucker Carson, a man who was famously 'attacked by a demon' while in bed, leaving him bleeding. Tucker mate - we've all been there.
From Chortle.
