Re: In todays news...
I think a lot of the UK never stop being teenagers.
They always need someone to blame and when it stops being their parents they blame their boss, or the government or someone. This bloke probably thinks the king is holding him back from his true potential, or something.

When they can't stop blaming someone else, they'll vote Labour.....who'll also blame someone else.Potter wrote: ↑Sun Apr 16, 2023 3:02 amI think a lot of the UK never stop being teenagers.

Re: In todays news...
This exact scenario has played out before and it astonishes me that people don't see it for exactly what it is.
Hitlerjugend and Bund Deutscher Mädel. Get 'em while they're young and they're yours for life. New legislation (!) in the US makes it a crime to tell the parents their child is seeking medical intervention for gender dysphoria for example.
If they can get away with it over there, then they'll get away with it here. Teach or coerce/force people to accept ideological nonsense and they will never be persuaded by the voice of reason. If those two camps just happen to be separated by a political ideology, then there is an entire group of people who will never accept the voice of reason...
Now it should become clear why identity politics is being rammed down our throats despite nobody (hardly anybody) asking for it.

If it is really a £20k a year girls school, one has to wonder why they allow people in who identify as male. Their money is as good as anybody's I guess.

Re: In todays news...
"The teacher said she felt she was later "managed out" of her position, revealing that the head teacher rejected her application to remain at the school after her one-term contract ended"
One whole term eh? Clearly not 20k school material
Since when was someone being embarrassed headline news anyway? Isn't that normally branded snowflakeism?

Re: In todays news...
That is a very good point. Wish I’d gone to an all girls school. Heck given the chance, I’d put my hand up (so to speak).

Pretty much that.^
Slight issue with a form and the fucking snowflake whines like a bitch about it.
Not rocket science, he wants to help others out and give blood? So all he has to do is just fill in as not pregnant and frame himself.
IIRC this was ages ago, are people still bitter and twisted about it, jeez.

So the pub which displayed the vintage dolls gets vandalised. Let me guess, the vandals belong to groups such as, BLM? Hope Not Hate? The usual violent, intolerant and hateful left wing groups?

Re: In todays news...
Those "vintage dolls" are about as offensive and overtly racist as anything can possibly get. What do you suppose their being on display "says" to black customers? might as well stick a sign on the door, "no blacks, no Irish, no dogs". FFS.
...and the swastika is simply an interesting old Sanskrit graphical element? Yeah right.

Re: In todays news...
My brothers M-I-L made some Gollys for her grandchildren as Christmas gifts, they opened them while I was round for Christmas lunch. I sniggered. "they're not racist!" she retorted. My brother also joined in the sniggering.Ant wrote: ↑Mon Apr 17, 2023 8:36 am https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/golliwog-pub ... rEZi4L1Wu0

They are racist though. However I didn't vandalise her house, and it wasn't really the time or place to educate her.
Re: In todays news...
Genuine question, exactly how are they racist?
As far as I'm aware, they're a caricature figure, so you want to cancel black people? Isn't that a bit like saying, no black people allowed on TV because if we see any, it's racist?
Look at uncle bens rice for example, how inclusive and diverse of them, to remove the black person from their packaging.
It's in the same direction as sports bras being advertised by a man pretending to be a woman, you're cancelling the actual people.

Re: In todays news...
Grotesque caricatures of black people given as toys to white children. And the name of them (however conveniently abridged) is a well known racial slur.
It's about as bad as it gets when it comes to educating children.
I don't want them banned by the way - allow the idiots to keep them in plain sight - all the racists can make a pilgrimage to the pub in Essex.

Re: In todays news...
Knew a bloke once who used to carry around one of those tazer sticks. 500v on the end of a baton. He told me he likes to walk up to people and just zap them.
“Wow” I said, “doesn’t that really hurt?”
“No, not at all” he said, “it’s insulated at my end, I don’t feel a thing”.
