  1. ?The UK is suffering a car theft epidemic. Crimes of this type have risen by 50% in the past five years, the Home Office says. They reached an eight-year high in 2018, with more than 106,000 cars stolen in England and Wales.? https://www.whatcar.com/news/car-theft-group-test-britains-most-secure-cars-2019/n19874 By your tortuous logic we should ban selling cars and clamp them when not in use.

Can you advise where the regulations > state this? From the amendments to the Transport Act related to covid that I?ve previously posted. Technically they need only consult emergency services to make any changes that the government (via Department for Transport)has directed them to do.
  3. Stop sounding like a childish pedant. He?s engaged here and there is more going on in the world than some tweaking of a few Southwark streets.
  4. Glen will be here ranting about fReE sPeEch! Any moment...

Or it?s the Department of Transport Emergency Active Travel Fund that?s investing ?2bn across the UK
  6. Ah I?ve not been clear - act blue is a fundraising portal- a bit like just giving here in the UK. It specialises in donations from individuals.

In short - there?s no direct equivalencies esteem a uk charity and a US not for profit (501 registered). The history behind that starts with Henry VIII so it?s not a short answer. The main point is that BLM is not Act Blue as Robbie said.
  8. What are you trying to say? Do you understand US Law on 501c3 status organisations? Sadly I do as it?s part of my job, but just randomly googling and posting selected excerpts and making incorrect interpretations as Robbie did to support some preconceived wrong just makes it look a bit tin foil hat territory.
  9. And act blue isn?t what you think it is - it?s the fundraising portal for all Democratic Party donations.
  10. The basic tenets of qanon are that there is a global elite who kill babies to harvest adrenochrome as an elixir. That?s just the start of it, it includes flat earthers, people who believe JFK is still alive, general anti semitism, snake oils, that the ?cure? for cancer has been found but big pharmaceutical is hiding it, that mass arrests of deep state agents are *always* just about to happen but never do. The latest is that covid doesn?t exist and it?s all an attempt to prevent trump?s reelection. It?s a con, a grift to make money for its advocates exploiting vulnerable people. Robbie - can I ask what you feel when you read about it?
  11. True f-Ing pundit?!
  12. That?s taking place - both new permanent sites and temporary ones.

  14. But grifters will always grift etc - they just have a bigger audience now
  15. The woman behind Plandemic is now saying that global elites are part of a satanic cult

  17. dbboy Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > See what Lambeth did at Herne Hill > station/Brockwell Park junction.

There are no ?extended queues? in fact barely any difference at all.
  18. They are a standard doomsday cult for the 21st century, exploiting the vulnerable and disenfranchised and focussed around a populist, right wing tv personality
  19. Have you just quoted Qanon conspiracy theories?
  20. No Foxy, if they forced pubs to close they would be making insurance claims possible. This advisory method introduces the idea of further restrictions to the public and crucially props up the economy (for the time being) whilst helpfully protecting the govt from business seeking financial recompense.

    The ComRes didn't actually report that people were in favour - they just interpreted the data to meet their own agenda. They also had dreadful Q1 results and put lots of people at risk of redundancy last month - hence their leap to populist

  24. You do read some of the most rabid right wing press don't you? UG - can you remind us how many previous convictions Tommy has and what for? Also how many members of EDL are on the sex offenders register for child abuse? It's all googleble - I'll wait for you to tell us.
