As Zed says, the already awful British press has become even worse these days. You have to look very hard for the very few actual journalists, on all political sides.

Ne'er a truer word spoken. Telegraph lost it a few years ago now, and as you say, if anything what I have seen of The Times seems to have become more balanced.

Today’s Trigger is people having a pop at Angry Hospital Dad because *gasp* he’s a Labour supporter, btw.

“Should be spending his time with his sick child instead of scoring political points”

“He’s weaponising his child”

“He wAs WeArInG a mIcRoPhOnE pAcK” - No, he was wearing a belt, and where, exactly, was this microphone pack, that he presumably brought from home, supposed to be transmitting to?! Fucking bellends.

There really is a lot to be said from just ignoring external influences to the greatest extent possible, isn't there.

I’m pinning all my hopes on catastrophic climate change wiping us all out.

You should probably avoid reading twitter too

I had to look that one up...

I had a former 'Murder SIO' claiming that on twitter to someone I follow.

I quickly knocked this up.



I mean, fucking hell, you'd think a cop would know about verifying sources of information and not just blindly repeating hearsay as gospel.

He deleted his tweet in the end.

Good work, Beany.

I quite deliberately follow Foxtrot_Cop so that I can see what the other side thinks.

Most of their info seems to come from Guido Fawkes or the Daily Mail. They swallow up anything they say entirely uncritically.

Which is...kinda sad.
